Reply to comment by dasoomer in TIL: That in 2019, some criminals were caught and 36 BTC was confiscated. The authorities valued the worth at €127,000 at the time and was sold 2 years later for €1.5 million. The criminals were returned €1.3 million due to the fact that the amount was expressed in Swedish Krona, not BTC by Wendals87
Yeah, this couldn’t happen in the USA because of the theory of “unjust enrichment”. I’m honestly surprised the same isn’t true there.

u/MistorMiss - this is a great idea. Goodwill is probably going to trash a lot of the stuff, so why don’t you give it to a battered women shelter to help victims of domestic violence rebuild their lives?

Did you hear about Clarkesworld magazine having to disable submissions because they got overrun with ChatGPT-created stories? I wonder if we could “force” it to read the original books and come up with a 3rd that follows the storyline which has been proposed over the years…
Might be an interesting community project.
