I appreciate when @casicaviar.bsky.social lobs me a question I’m dying to answer because I get to go into far too detailed an explanation.
Cas simply asked me “aren’t most cryptocurrencies very easily traceable (and therefore bad for kidnapping)?”
If you’d like an exhaustive answer, thread below.

No, it’s a good question.
So first of all let’s think about what a ransom previously meant: a family or law enforcement officer would have to take a bag of untainted cash and drop it off somewhere — obviously wire transfers or a mailing address don’t work.
So that’s an instant physical limitation.

It could be really bad for Discord if Californians contact the office of the Attorney General to report the potential violations of CCPA and CALOPPA citing the recent breach from a few months back where 1.5tb of user data and millions of IDs were leaked, but who can say for sure?
Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month

wait i just realized the discord changes would only restrict access to channels flagged nsfw
wouldnt it be obvious to them that everyone would just... stop clicking that checkbox and leave *every* channel unflagged, completely circumventing the entire point of this

Tickets for Mania aren't selling.
- people said Vegas sucked last year and they wouldn't go again
- Nevada begged WWE to not rescind on the back to back because it was the best month they had in the state
- no one wants to get ICE'd
- Vegas prices have nearly tripled
Gee I almost feel bad.

This article is the clearest and most specific explanation I’ve seen for how people actually make books with this tech. Setting aside all the other problems with using genAI in this way, it sounds so unenjoyable. Where’s the fun in this at all? There’s no eureka moment where you solve the problem.

TIL that Bull Poker is a thing:
As in two men sit at a table in a rodeo ring, place both feet flat on the floor and both hands flat on the table. A bull is then released into the ring.

If there's ever been a time to NOT be incrementalist, this is it. The most political capital you're gonna have is right now. And we got Gestapo death squads in MSP and TB spreading through concentration camps in Texas. If you can't find a win there, get out of politics. The Epstein Class, baby

Reasons not to repost this:
Pic doesn't have alt text.
There's greenery in the background - so definitely not a recent pic from Minnesota.
There is no source for the claim being made.
Check the profile - this person doesn't live in Minneapolis or MN.
This person doesn't interact on here.
