Google Ross Albricht. He had over 400,000 BTC at the time of the arrest. FBI, DEA and Secret Service recovered it all. And he was a technically savvy inventor not some Gucci clad crooner who doesn't even understand how Bitcoin works.

Ulbricht's laptop was snatched during the raid.

He didn't have enough time to cover hia tracks

I mean hacking Google's servers in the true sense, not social engineering or phishing.

People get paid by companies like Google on a regular when they reveal exploits and vulnerabilities in servers. This ensures all exploits are blocked almost immediately.

with quantum computing and AI, Bitcoin passwording will be easy to decode within milliseconds

They can't decode anything, worst case scenario is to hack the wallets servers and hopefully decrypt their usernames and passwords.


Quantum computing is not a reality yet, and moreover Bitcoin servers are near impossible to hack

Top four Grammar Errors on Social Media- Read and Educate others
Maxwil

The advent of social media has made communication a lot more easy and tons and tons of messages have been exchanged on the platform. It's no doubt that our grammar, to some extent is greatly influenced by our daily conversations with friends, families, associates and acquaintance. Personally I have come across a lot of grammatical errors, especially of common tenses. I am greatly disturbed by the incessant inappropriate usage of these common words or phrases. As you read, join me in educating as many as you can in whatever way you can. Check the list below, make corrections of whichever applies to you and share to help get rid of these common errors.

1. Using apostrophes when pluralizing




It's Mondays and Tuesdays, not Monday's and Tuesday's. This mistake is everywhere on the Internet and social media and it makes me want to cry. The Oxford dictionary clearly states that apostrophes are only for indicating possession or an abbreviation. The exception for this is only when indicating plurals of single letters or single numbers. For example: 'find all the p's and 7's in the box'. Never use it when pluralizing.



2. Confusing 'it's' and 'its'


This is simple, the possessive form of 'its' never carries an apostrophe. If your sentence makes sense when you use 'it is' then 'it's' is what should replace it as its abbreviated form but if it doesn't, then 'its' is what is appropriate.



3. Using comma splices

The punctuation mark ',' is used to indicate a set off parts of a sentence or between elements of a list and not hazardously in sentences.

Example: I like twitter, it's a great place to communicate.

John went to the house, I met him there.

Correction: Use a semi-colon instead of a comma

Use a full-stop instead of a comma.

Use a coordinating conjunction like ‘or’, ‘and’ or ‘but'.

So it should be 'I like twitter. It's a great place to communicate'. Note the other corrections where they apply.



4. Confusing 'you're' and 'your'

This is quite similar to the error discussed in number 2. If you re-write the sentence using ' you are' and it makes sense then 'you're' is what you should use. If you need the possessive form as in 'your shoes are nice' or 'your toes are big' then 'your' is what you should use.

Thank you for reading and let me know if this was helpful. Sharing is loving! Join me in sharing this with others. Let's try in our little way to get rid of bad grammar. God bless you.

If this person was arrested way back in October 2019, then Hushpuppi isn't smart at all... I mean, that was the point when he should have started living low-key life and even possibly relocated back sharply to naija, but...

WUdec:


I read the 20 page FBI affidavit. Plus hush must have scooped a lot of inside information from the players themselves about info concerning transfers, purchases and what not. Don't think the players knew his intentions either. Dude's been photographed hanging with a lot of chelsea players.

They had hit this Lizzo club no doubt, but they grew wings and went for a bigger kill. That was their downfall.

Becos his hacker got too greedy and so did hush and co. How do you receive 5m dollar/euro payments in different accounts every week and then go from that to wanting 100 million in one transfer?

Did they actually think it would clear? Such payments go thru rigorous approvals and get vetted for days before approval pending signatures. And such amounts are only spent on purchasing players or equipment. 5m Euros to a club is nada. But don't in who owns Chelsea. Top 5 richest men in the UK and a Russian too.

Ain't no way he wouldn't wanna know who hit him or tried to. Plus i think hush took the wrap for everyone else becos of his instagram stunting. So they made him the leader of the gang in this case. The main dude behind it all is the hacker. He pulled the biggest heists. The rest just received and withdrew.

But I trust FBI to work a deal with him and he would work for them in return for his freedom. America does not play with hackers. Becos they are valuable as free men to the CIA than as convicts under taxpayers' money

To top it off, the hacker's name was censored from court documents but hush's was thrown in. They did not even mention the hacker's username. Lol. Oh America

The dumbest move of all was using an Iphone. Especially cos all his messages are backed up in the cloud. These dudes were morons for real

Even a pusher knows not to use a phone with bluetooth or wifi.

Dude posted insta updates from the phone, received screenshots, toasted babes, ordered food, downloaded passport pics, checked emails...i mean.....the stupidity behind it all still amazes me

Then why the hell would you stash 45 million dirhams in cash. When you can start a business and clean the money?

He could have bought power, invested in real estate projects of the Royal Family, started a charity organisation for poor/displaced UAE citizens etc. Dubai would have had his back and covered him good.

Jay Z did worse but today no one remembers he was a dope dealer. All they see is his net worth.


The bank heist was not a one man operation, it was carried out by a mob.

The individual named coconspirator 1 in the affidavit is a man named Mirza who was also living the good life, he was arrested by the FBI in oct 2019, it was he who likely did all the snitching, i believe law protocol requires you use such terms as "conspirators" and co in place of a suspects name for a reason unknown to me.

Angelfrost:


The first step is massive widespread education and sensitization, same as what was done during the height of the polio issue... This ought to have been done since March, even prior to the lock down!!!

The next step is enforcement of preventive measures: It is not enough to talk on radio and on the streets. Nigerians are extremely stubborn and headstrong like the Biblical Israelites, there has to be door to door, and person to person enforcement of the rules or guidelines of disease prevention and containment.

The government has to get off her high horse, and liaise with private healthcare practitioners like doctors, pharmacists, even Nurses and midwives... The ultimate aim will be to facilitate symptom management, education, and immunity building.

Let me stress on the herd immunity building part... We must educate our citizens on immunity enhancement!!! At this juncture of escalation of spread, this is the only way out for over 70% of the citizens!!!...

As for you, ensure your loved ones are popping at least 500mg Vitamin C daily, with low doses of Zinc or Selenium. The slightest feeling of airway obstruction should be reported, if unable to do so, quickly get antihistamines...

This battle will be won eventually... But, we must all be proactive!!!

Good one Sire!
Although its easier said than done

Nice and impressive analysis and points... But, I hate to be the one to break it to you: The only way is to crack on! At this point, the spread can never be contained!!! Kid yourself not!!!

I have said it severally here, NCDC has been playing catch up (Still playing catch up) since February, and they are still barely keeping up! Infected individuals in Nigeria are in Millions (Don't even bother arguing with this fact)!

NCDC and Health ministry are merely going through the motions with the laughable figures you see up there...

As for those who still call it a scam, well, you shouldn't blame them... In such hellish and hostile existence with very bad leaders, ignorance is the only bliss for a hopeless majority!!!

In my opinion, we are at a stage where each individual is solely responsible for the safety of his family. This virus is thriving on ignorance, people refuse to believe the virus is prevalent here.

What is the solution in your opinion?
Health / Re: 779 New COVID-19 Cases, 372 Discharged And 4 Deaths On June 27 - (3006 Tested) by Opperwezen(m): 12:01am On Jun 28, 2020
People disregard safety measures because:

1. They believe the figures are falsified and the virus is not prevalent.
2. They are yet to see any one in their neighborhood get infected.
3. They are totally unaware of the havoc the virus caused in Brazil which has a very similar demographic.

Brazil has about 1.4m confirmed cases, I hate to sound like a pessimist but with things going at this pace with no bars in place, then we may be heading to that region.


4. They fail to realize that although the virus is not a death sentence to a lot, it can be very lethal to a few individuals the lot care about.


No cure or vaccine in sight, yet cases keep increasing geometrically, people dying, masses wanting their lives pre covid-19 era back in full swing, A government very eager to give it back to them ASAP.


My father has a chronic cough and he's in his 70's, his chances of survival if he comes in contact with the virus would be low.

Take home:

We tested about 2000 individuals, out of which about 750 returned positive, if we test 2m individuals how many would return positive?


Naija which way?

About the glue, it's because of the water-resistant feature...you can remove the glue but you will lose the water resistance it offers..dem dey change iPhone X battery on a daily everywhere naa...

The apple battery is 30 dollars in the West, unfortunately our currency is shyt! That is why it looks expensive here...

Sammy makes better displays agreed but not cheaper, I thought we were discussing on ease of repairing?

About battery endurance like I said, I haven't used the s20 ultra in depth to actually see for myself how long it can last in real life usage..but I know the 11 can get you 2 days use and that's more than enough.

If you remove the glue you don't necessarily lose water resistance.

Yes you can change the cover but it's "HARD" when compared to changing that of a galaxy which places adhesive only on the edges of the cover

Grandmeister:

Which one be bragging rights? E no go better for poverty in this country..repairability? When an s8 screen still cost more than a XS max screen? IPhones are one of the easiest phones to repair. The procedures are so simple that a dimwit can manage to do it...battery department I can't say since I have not handled the s20 ultra in depth but the 11 even surpasses the xr in battery and the xr was pushing two days on a single charge...display the Sammy wins, camera the Sammy edges out the 11 because it offers more but the still shots are basically on par on both phones..video the iPhone 11 (and other variants)is still the top dog.

Overall the s20 ultra offers more for your money but the 11 will fetch more money when you want to upgrade and it will offer more years of support..the 6s got ios 14( that's 6 whole years of support)...
How does bragging rights and poverty relate?

Do you know you can't replace the batteries of iPhone x and upwards without professional help since the back cover is glued all the way with a very nasty adhesive? Do you know that Apple plans to release an update that bans users from replacing batteries themselves, except at official Apple stores for ridiculous prices?

There are lots of videos on Battery endurance comparison between both phones, make sure to watch one before commenting.

Samsung makes the best mobile displays and that definitely comes at a higher price since quality doesn't come cheap, Samsung makes Apple's OLED displays which come cheaper, this is due to higher quality.

Samsung's major bottleneck is in providing only 2 major OS upgrades to "toagships" over the life span of the device and this is not something peculiar as a lot of other smartphone manufacturers selling their devices in the US do same, I'm guessing this is due to an agreement with Carriers, forcing users to buy newer devices every 3 years in order to "keep in touch"

I stand my ground on my previous comments, you are free to do same smiley we can't all think alike.
