You aren't going to be able to mine more than a few cents of Bitcoin a month without specialized hardware.

As mentioned, Monero is best for privacy.

If you must use Bitcoin specifically, one option is to "wash" whatever you buy by using an exchange that allows anonymous account creation, then converting it to XMR and back before using it. You can also find someone to trade with in person for cash. There at least used to be localbitcoin to help facilitate that, if that's even still a thing.

oh no I'm sure Jack Smith didn't consider that!

let's also conveniently ignore the dozens of other highly qualified experts in his orbit telling him this crackpot was full of shit.

I started similarly and I think the simple answer is "run more".

It was not long after I reached the point I think you are at when I reached the magical "I can run at an easy pace forever!" I started pushing greater distances instead of speed and I got a lot faster as a result.

There are specific programs for each distance to decrease your times and prepare for a race, but they all kind of assume you can run several miles at an easy pace already.

Enjoy your new hobby!

Unity is not the easiest engine to learn by a long shot, I was really just using it as an example because they have a very good (and free) "learn to code in Unity" program.

It sounds like others have given some better starting points for you to look at for what you are looking to do, Unity seems a bit overkill.

What are you trying to make? I'm not aware of anything open source.

I think short of using rpgmaker (not open source) or something like it (that makes a very specific kind of game and you are really just plugging in content) you aren't going to get very far into game development with no coding at all.

Unity (again not open source) allows you to do a lot without coding, but by the time you learn how to use Unity you may as well follow their provided education/classes and learn to code while you're at it.

Newsom has some balls for agreeing to Hannity as a moderator

Jesus that article reads like the schizophrenic ramblings that nutters used to leave on your windshield while you were shopping in Kmart

many of my conservative coworkers and family members genuinely believe there is some conspiracy led by George Soros et. al. to bring tons of brown people across our border to have "anchor babies" and further liberalize our country.

if that is what you believe, of course ending birthright citizenship sounds like a great solution

In Firefox at least (I'm sure most others) you can elect to "view desktop site" and see it in a mobile browser just fine
