I checked your post history out of curiosity if you are shill-bot. And while you apparently spend a non insignificant time writing about Bitcoin, you also wrote pretty smart things too and seem to be a decent person. You also seem engaged in tech and interested in doing good things with it.

Which confuses the fuck out of me how anyone like you could still argue in 2024 that Bitcoin is anything but a gigantic garbage fire. And not just Bitcoin. Pretty much all copycat crypto currencies it spawned.

Which is not to be confused with blockchain technology. That has some fringe use cases. It is a valid technology for certain databases in some pretty specific and relatively few instances. But except for very specific and seldom legal cases, the technology hsas pretty much proven it is noehere near a proper replacement for money in general.

So back to my point: How can someone who seems legitimately decent from most posts I saw, interested in technnology and most probably not having been hit on the head with a brick, write such a shill post with no particular purpose (at least from what I could gather)?

Obviously you don’t have to reply. I am fucking nobody, it’s your busniness and I am certainly not entitled into an answer. I am really just curious how after especially the last couple of years, after all the existences Bitcoin and it’s offspawns must have ruined, them not having provided any tangible benefits to humanity in the process, how can one still argue it could ever do anything good as a replacement for money. Bitcoins atrocious and devastating track record, I’d argue, tells you all you need to know. And crypto exchanges are just unregulated stock markets where you get scammed left and right.

Sorry for the rant, I expected a bot. Maybe you still are.

Get out of here with your reasonable suggestions for real life problems.

Instead the state should raise taxes on poor people and give the money to the oil companies, cause freedom or something.

I advise you to seek help.

There is none I grew up with, so I can’t name a favorite either. Neither did we own the platforms most of the games released on. I only ever got into Star Trek later in life.

That’s irregular. Have it checked by a medical professional and get a second or third opinion if you already were at the doctor.

There is cases where the underlying reason can not be discovered. Those are usually harmless. Pretty much all cases where an underlying reason can be determined can be tested for and for almost all of them should get you medical treatment. They reach from not good to serious danger to your health.

I actually didn’t think about it much, because I block all ads. But consumerism can be fun, I wouldn’t mind ads if I had a say in which I see.

Weird how neolibs are proponents of the free market all the time, but at the same time insist on shoving crap we don’t want down our throats. I like your suggestion.

It is a legit question. Usually you don’t have to pro-actively inform anyone that you disagree with anything, TOS included. That’s just what companies want you to believe since it benefits them greatly.

No idea though how things in the U.S. are handled and if there are differences in certain states. It would surprise me though if that was actually an enforcable legal principle.

You can’t hold a firm grasp on reality if it is distorted by your massive narcissism already. He thinks anyone but the bags of shit still on his platform care.

Twitter never actually mattered and nothing of value will be lost. He can pound sand.

Hold on there, voting conservatives into power is detrimental to the economy shocked Pikachu

I’d like to thank you for providing context to reactivism based solely on an emotional reaction without doing any research first.

I am guilty of that as well, but you put effort in, explained things and that takes time. Thanks.

You just could still trip on a dead monk while slaughtering them and break your neck. I am sure that counts as death in battle.

You seem like good people. I hope you have a nice and relaxing weekend.

You are getting mad at an internet post by a random person who has exactly zero credibility to begin with. I sourced nothing, I claimed nothing, I didn’t even pretend that any opinion I hold is of value. As much as I am for calling out shit and as much as I applaud you doing that if for no other reason than out of principle, why? Why don’t you use your brain against someone actually doing harm and argue with a shitpost done by a shitposter on a platform that is mostly about shitposting instead?

All of that pointless stuff aside: Legal ≠ Right I hope you will agree with me on that. We’d like to pretend the rules we make up are just. We’d especially like to believe that if they are democratically legitimated someway or another, they must be morally okay. That is not the case. It never was and never will be. If you base your whole stance on something being legal, then that’s a huge issue in and of itself.

At this point in history money is power is law. If you are rich enough, you have to be the utmost incompetent idiot around to do something blatantly illegal and get in trouble for it. I for one don’t think this is the way. So maybe a bit more anarchy from time to time would serve us all well to balance out rich people’s crap.

Also: It’s a shitpost. A freaking shitpost. Vote it down and move on. I’d do the same if I didn’t think it would be worth engaging with you.

Not gonna lie, I buy stuff on Amazon sometimes and despise myself for it. But I can’t and won’t ever use their search, it is absolute and utter garbage like the rest of the corporate internet.

And jail time as well as taking their personal wealth. Or throw them in the middle of the Atlantic, both options are valid.

I am not asking for much. Just break up Google and throw both the big shareholders as well as the executives in jail for the rest of their lifes. If you go as far and decide to take all their money and spend it on social services, healthcare and education for the general public, I wouldn’t be mad.

Your comment is the most interesting one in this whole thread, in a positive way.

Musk is a giant turd, his lackeys and bootlickers are even worse. He representes everything wrong with super rich. People should stop taking his shit and fuck him off whenever the opportunity arises.

I am 100% on the side of the workers and hope they manage to give him the figurative boot.

Finally someone gets it. Can’t you please write a paper for those stupid anticapitalist EU representatives that made this freedom-hating shit up in the first place. Liberate the market! Leeches matter!

HR person here that sometimes has helpdesk positions to fill as well. Absolutely appropriate. Like others already said, you are better dressed than most people we interview for such positions.

Piece of advice if you don’t usually dress like that: Wear those clothes for a half a day going grocery shopping and doing regular daily shit. Helps make you feel more comfortable in them. Just give them a check up to see if they got dirty afterwards.

On a personal note, great choice of colours too. Best of luck to you!
