Same for me. I can't stand the weird keyboard combinations and I totally hate that I need to watch a 1 second eyecandy animation when I put a window in full screen.
No, it needs to be included in any freshly mined block.
Can you include an unlimited amount of transactions in a block to minimize the wasted energy?
No, it's hardcoded to around 1 mb and since the average is 300 bytes, that translates to ~3000
Can you mine a Bitcoin without wasting an immense amount of energy?
No.
So, by math, you take that immense amount of energy and divide by ~3000 transactions.
You can't just take in consideration the 3 watts used by your computer in the 300 milliseconds used to submit the transfer, need to consider the whole network
I would be happy to learn if it's possible to transfer them without including the transaction in a block, that would be groundbreaking and then the electricity used would be 10000x less
please explain how to transfer bitcoin without mining a block, since the transactions are contained there.
You need to take the energy required to mine a block and validate it (a lot, could power a small town), then divide for the few transactions that could be included in just 1 mb.
They impose a size limit on the transactions that can be included, so even if tomorrow the transactions increase 10x, each block could contain the same limited number. Of course, if you only count the electricity used by your machine to send the transaction, it's just a few milliwatts. The problem is all the garbage calculations that need to be done to actually validate it.
For a generic non personalized spam, IMHO it would be too expensive to generate and track millions of wallets. They could have placed a tracking pixel for much less (they didn't, the email is just plain text)
If then it's some targeted campaign, then yes, a dedicated BTC address makes sense as you said
In the past 24 hours a block contains in average only 3500 transactions. Then that block needs to be validated by many other nodes in following calculations.
This is why it's the most inefficient payment method, very slow (only 3500 transactions in ten minutes instead of few seconds), expensive for the user (transfer fees are high) and power hungry
I have wireless android auto and sometimes I wished it didn't have it, for shorter trips I prefer to have no map, just the car radio, and for longer trips you have to plug the phone to charge anyway because navigation uses a massive amount of battery
There's a default setting that allows unencrypted communication between the server and cloudflare. So they receive unencrypted data, sign with their certificate. Or send with self signed certificate, they decrypt and reencrypt. Or for some reason can download and import on the server their own internal use certificate.
Cloudflare knows almost everything done from your IP address because they're used by the majority of websites. And some websites are using a cloudflare signed TLS certificate so if cloudflare wants, can see the content of the communication instead of an encrypted package
So they know if you have a human behavior (visiting many different websites at human speed and having rests during sleeping time) or if you have a bot behavior (sending millions of requests to the same endpoint at superhuman speeds)
A program that is supposed to make money when you're sleeping by automatically trade currency pairs. Usually they aren't as miraculous as their devs are stating.
This said, most expert advisors programs aren't really functional, need a human supervision. IMHO the devs make more money from the sales/subscriptions of their software than running their "money making machines". After all, if your "completely automated money machine" actually works, why would you bother in paying marketing, DRM schemes to have other people using it?
