James Howells. Quite a sad story. For those unaware, I’ll give you the short version:
In 2013, Howells mined close to 8,000 BTC and saved his private keys (which is like a password to get access to your BTC) to his laptop’s hard drive. Months later he absent-mindedly throws it in the trash. Next morning he realizes what he’s done and tries going to the local garbage dump to search for it. He grew obsessed with finding the hard drive. It got to the point where his wife left him and took the kids with her. To this day he’s still trying to get his local government to give him permission to dig through the city’s garbage dump.
His plan to retrieve his lost crypto was doomed from the start. When the garbage truck came to pick up his garbage, it had its own trash compactor inside, which would have crushed the hard drive to bits, meaning the hard drive most likely died before it even got to the landfill. And even if the HDD wasn’t destroyed, the data on it would have likely been corrupted after sitting in garbage for 10+ years. And even if they managed to recover the data, if he tried to sell any of his BTC it would crash the market. He should have just cut his losses from the beginning and spent more time with his wife and kids. Now, this fool’s errand to retrieve the (likely-dead) hard drive will be his legacy.
And if they ever run out of Toy Story characters, the Marvel universe has thousands of other characters…
Not to mention other Pixar film characters.
My condolences, that must sting.
Out of curiosity, what was the name of the company?
You may not have gotten rich, but at least you can say on your resume that your technique is in every decent CDN + compression tool!
Honestly I’m not sure why they discontinued Mint KDE Edition.
I’m not sure if you can replace YouTube. It’s too popular and has been a mainstay of the Internet for 19 years. We won’t be able to convince people to just up and leave YouTube.
Best case scenario is to lead by example and start sharing videos from PeerTube.
Krusty: So he’s proactive, huh?
Network Executive Lady: Oh, God, yes. We’re talking about a totally outrageous paradigm.
Writer: Excuse me, but “proactive” and “paradigm”? Aren’t these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I’m accusing you of anything like that… [pause] …I’m fired, aren’t I?
Roger Meyers, Jr.: Oh, yes. [gets up to leave] The rest of you writers start thinking up a name for this funky dog - I don’t know, something along the lines of, say, “Poochie”, only more proactive!
Krusty: Yeah!
