Now I'm not an esteemed criminal justice major like yourself, sir, but that to me looks like $200,000 worth of means and intent to deliver.
This is not ASICSPACEs property. They are managing this, but it not theirs. They own jack shit and their net value is close to 0.
You know far less than you should, if your claims are true and you know them so well.
Lets agree to disagree and be done with it.
I never said it was theirs, I only said it was an intent and means to deliver. Asicspace is contractually bound to that space and it to them, which definitely passes the bar for an intent and means to deliver on contracts. If you think being pedantic about it matters, I don't think a single big Bitcoin mine operator owns their land, at least none in central WA. Amazon.com doesn't even own the buildings they are headquartered in, none of the entire lake union campus, and they don't manufacture any of the Amazon products they sell. Microsoft didn't even have an operating system when they sold one to IBM. None of that has ANYTHING to do with whether someone intends to or is capable of delivering.
I know far more than you have been told. Others you esteem highly are not the angels you think they are. But I'm sure they didn't tell you that part of the story.
** Going back to clarify for someone reading this later, I'm not saying Asicspace did right or good here or that I support them or don't. All I'm saying is I know they don't have criminal intent, and I know they have not broken any laws. I'm almost certain that the temperature didn't get hotter (or equal to) other functional mines I've seen(big and small). I know they have cooling improvements coming. I also know they have had network outages. I have no opinion on whether they did or didn't actually damage or contribute to the damage of the hardware. **
