TBH I don’t even want the government knowing my address.

Isn’t v5 of Express expecting to drop soon (albeit, that has been the promise for a while now)?

And yet coffee shops that claim to be organic, eco conscious and fair trade still penalize you for opting for a milk alternative (by charging extra, like up to $1).

No, but does that make you question the mainstream narrative at all?

Probably that there’s a real person named Satoshi Nakamoto out there, who’s an autistic savant that authored BitCoin v0.1.

Unless they really left… RIP.

You mostly sleep between 9pm and 4am?

Nice try, Satoshi...

Were seashells a Ponzi? What about glass beads? These were used as “currency” in our history, but nobody uses them as such anymore.

Let’s say Bitcoin is a Ponzi. What or who will do the inevitable rug pull that comes with those scams? What if the rug pull never comes (or does 1000 years from now)? Is it still a Ponzi? Was it a Ponzi for those people who benefited from it in that 1000 years?

In post-apocalyptic crunch we are likely to go back to food, water and ammo. You and I will likely be long dead before society reverts to something like gold, so I doubt gold as post-apocalyptic hedge.

You are not wrong, but neither is MLM in and of itself.

To be fair, the article does address your questions.

But if someone just moves into your property why can’t police just kick them out? That’s an illegal action. If someone came into your house and started stealing your things and you call the cops on them you don’t go to court to prove those things are really yours.

Still, doesn’t seem like the best use of Europol catching squatters.

Great! This is how giant, greedy corporations die.

Best thing I know is side-loading apps via something like AltStore.

That reverse psychology!

We’ll solve that problem in 50 years, don’t you think? BTC and ETH are just pioneers in the future of financial systems.

Was Trump right about CNN…?

imagine a society where people are actually held accountable for spreading bullshit disinformation, wouldn't that be a net good?

Who decides that it’s bullshit though? The government? Or maybe interested-party-backed “fact checkers”?

There’s also pdfreactor.com which we use to get full support of CSS.

It’s not just one person’s brain, right? Everyone who was there would see the same thing. Surely, that means our brains are pretty much wired the same. But I wonder if some people would see the “correct” thing.

What’s also mind blowing is that the camera captures the same thing your brain is interpreting!

I bet it was “just a conspiracy theory” back then...

... otherwise they’d have to admit that they just don’t feel smart enough to use what would otherwise be a perfectly good programming technique FOR SPOCK.

Is how I feel about Haskell.

They could’ve easily organized on Signal. What would HN say if Google banned Signal?

Evil genius! Move to ban in person communication, control all the virtual communication mediums.

We did this to ourselves by integrating Google/Apple products into our every day life. 20-15 years ago we didn’t have any of it and still led mighty fine lives. Yes, private companies are free to do this stuff to us, but we only have ourselves to blame.

I don’t see how this is a sensible decision for YouTube. Nearly half the voters voted for Trump. YouTube is gambling with those folks boycotting leaving the platform (BitChute?). It’s just not sensible and quite risky from business perspective.

It’s baffling to me. In the article they provide the entire Section 230 text, and it does not mention curated content. So, how is it justified that curating content is protected by Section 230? Is curating users content protected be First Amendment somehow?

So, the pea grew faster towards a thinner support, but why does that mean it grew less accurate?
