  So they were off by one year. This was years ago. Hell, I thought I remember reading about it in 2000,apparently not. I’m probably mentally conflating it with the white papers I was reading in the late 90’s, some of my more technical coworkers at that company (which I left in 2000) were hot on what we now call crypto currency.

    as stupid as they are, if you had installed it and mined it for a few minutes, you’d be millionaire now.

      Ass U Me more. Money is not a motivational factor for all. There is virtually no benefit of crypto currencies that arent out weighed by all the negative factors.

      If im gonna needlessly waste money it will be for research (folding@home) This is at least benefits others

      And if you’re at the top of a pyramid scheme, you can become a millionaire, too.
