Tangentially related: Back in the day, the AMD Cool'n'Quiet feature had a funny effect in CS:Source where your player would move much faster than normal. This resulted in bans because of the obvious advantage, which was mistaken for a speed hack.

That is part of the false narrative you and many were fed and believed. Investigations, reporting from many parties, and the vicitm's own family weigh against this drivel.

Consul seems to be more prone to issues than one would hope though. Imo the feature set is not worth the increased complexity and operational burden. There are simpler ways of handling service discovery and configuration without running your own consensus based cluster.

I remember during school showing my Math teacher (who was a big Ultima gamer but also played Neopets) how I set up a fake neopets shop that prompted you for login. <form action="mailto:xxxxxx"> When you submitted the login form it sent the form inputs in an email to a hotmail address :D. One of my first experiences with HTML. I had no idea there were so many shared Neopets experiences in this community.

Re:How traders 'pump and dump' cryptocurrencies

Exactly the same outcome as Runescape "merchanting" aka pump and dumping where the majority of the participants were looking to make a quick flip and end up screwed over by the organizers who bought in much earlier start selling early as well. I think much of what is happening in the crypto currency scene has played out in virtual economies a decade earlier and irl for hundreds of years prior.
