Montreal police ticket HOMELESS person for breaking curfew | The Post Millennial
https://thepostmillennial.com/montreal-police-ticket-homeless-person-for-breaking-curfew

A $1550 ticket for a man who was by himself, on his way to a shelter after looking in garbage bins to find food (he was probably waiting for restaurants to close and put out their trash).

With OTS timestamps this product would let you prove that a container had been sealed for a certain amount of time.

@jgettbtc Be good thing to test!

@jgettbtc I mean, seems like a pretty good question to me. :)

@iamarnold Often online sites like that don't check order quantities, and will let you order much more than they can ship on time.

@giszmo Better yet, turn it upside down and immerse the top part in a liquid that you can freeze so as to not leave marks.

But it loot like it has protrusions into the beads to move them if turned. Those protrusions would also prevent movement if frozen.

@nic It's actually not a new technique: I first heard about it for use in securing nuclear weapons.

@orionwl Biden is paranoid enough to wear two masks at once, even after getting vaccinated, so probably yes.

A remote presidency is probably also what the people actually in power around him want: all the better to isolate him from reality.

@kekcoin it looks like it's designed to disturb the pattern when it's rotated with small protrusions below the beads.

Neat tamper-evidence packaging concept: a random pattern of beads that's modified when you open the package, along with a smartphone app to automatically verify the pattern is correct.

Reusable glitter basically: to fake a seal, you need to make the significant effort of positioning each bead in the right place. Possible. But very time consuming.

I'd buy one!

"provide a photo that proves it really is your [Bitcoin] address"

I'm really curious what type of photo Bitstamp thinks constitutes proof that a given Bitcoin address belongs to you...

So Biden is going to have 200,000 flags instead of people at the inauguration.

Interesting question: how far in advance do you have to order 200,000 flags? Because I'm guessing they've been planning on no-one attending in person for months.

@jimmysong ...also the double standard of saying long-term side effects of the vaccine are already known to be non-existent while the long-term side effects of the virus are unknown.

Truth is, there's quite a lot of unknowns re: long term mRNA effects:

@Seccour @lukedashjr The heart attack itself wouldn't take that long. But having chest pain for days or even weeks prior to a heart attack is certainly possible: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/heart-attack/symptoms-causes/syc-20373106

@nic (I wish I was joking...)

@nic But there is no such thing as truth. Only power relations. Therefore you are The Tether Guy.
