Local accounts versus Microsoft accounts.

Posted on by

“To use Windows, login to your Microsoft.com account or we will arrest you. In the process deliver to us all the current meta data required to have a successful experience. Otherwise, you may find yourself creating a Local Account, and using your software locally and not making use of our extensive library of Cloud Tools.”

Being a Mac person who made a lot of money off of poor Windows users this sounds like the end of computing as I know it. Honestly, Microsoft needs to be broken up, taken apart, forensically analyzed and hosed down for all manner of viruses and bugs.

In case you don’t understand, They’re Spying on Us!

Intrinsic Value Of Crypto: What Is It & How To Calculate It | ZeroHedge

Posted on by

I got to say it’s a fun app.

Key takeaways

Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin gain value from factors like scarcity, utility and security, not physical backing.

Common methods to calculate intrinsic worth of a cryptocurrency include Metcalfe’s Law, cost of production and discounted utility models.

Estimating intrinsic value is challenging due to market volatility and speculative data.Fiat currencies have no intrinsic value, relying on trust, while cryptocurrencies’ value is based on decentralization and scarcity.Intrinsic value refers to the actual worth of an asset based on its fundamental characteristics, rather than its market price. For example, in traditional finance, the intrinsic value of a stock is often derived from factors such as earnings, cash flow and growth potential.

Does Inflation Lead To Civilizational Collapse? A Look At Rome | ZeroHedge

Posted on by

1. The exploitation of the silver to gold ratio depleted Roman silver supplies as the creditor oligarchy exported coinage to India & the east. There the ratio was as low as 4:1 & 12:1 in Rome.

2. European gold & silver supplies were exhausted around 26BC. There was little plunder left available.

3. The role of debt was a monumental factor in Rome’s rise & fall. An aggressive & brutal creditor oligarchy had sought land monopolization as they seized land as collateral for unpaid debts. Their actions have led many to conclude that life within the empire was like “hell on earth.”

4. The church & the state also hastened Rome’s decline as they sought tribute & taxes.The sheer brutality of the regime can be well summed up by Emperor Severus telling his generals to “enrich the men, scorn all others.”
