lol he still has no idea what a tarriff is

“could” raise prices for americans?

by modern ai standards, xkcd’s version s quite accurate. Should be fit for production as-is

i don’t even have icons enabled on my desktop. Now I don’t have to feel stressed about cleaning it up

people don’t use bitcoin to pay for other stuff. people buy and sell bitcoin itself. The currency is the asset.

the price of an asset (when the asset is the currency itself) is based on its economic activity. You said so yourself. The price is dictated by markets. By how much is bought and sold on markets. That is the definition of economic activity. Which part of that do you not understand?

the value of a cryptocurrency is based on its perceived value. Perceived value is based on market activity. If I keep sending money to myself it just shows up as market activity, with nobody being able to tell i sent money to myself.

gdp works this way too btw. I sell you $1 worth of stuff, you sell me $1 of stuff, nobody is any richer but gdp went up by $2. Except we can filter this kind of abuse out because it’s not anonymous.

this is what the open source community refuses to understand. If you want to go mainstream, you need to give users less choice. There is one windows, there is one macos, but one struggles to describe just what a linux distro even is.

it’s how crypto markets do. Since anonymity is a feature, any transactions will increase its value due to it being “used” more

lol crypto is worth jack shit. I can just keep sending the same money to myself and it would cause the price to go up…

god of war live service? wtf???

farm raised breaded chicken. They hatch pre-breaded

it should run chatgpt on every cell with the prompt ‘if you had to interpret the value “$VALUE” as a date, what would be the date?’, and then replace each cell’s value with the answer.

it doesn’t allow changes to stuff that needs root access to change. If you have root access you can do anything, including switching images. It is not more secure. It’s not less either

or they know enough physics to know that quantum entanglement is physically impossible to use to send information.

yeah those are both ignorant of the law. No, the job pays minimum wage. If you don’t tip, the employer must.

Wage theft is what’s going on. Which is a different problem. And if that is solved and minimum wage isn’t enough, then that’s a minimum wage problem. Which affects everyone. Servers aren’t special. Neither require tipping.

there are no server rates. minimum is minimum. the server rate only applies if you tip.

then the fight should be to fix that. “Wages getting stolen” and “the minimum wage is too low” are two separate issues.

I am not american, I live in one of those countries where shit that can’t possibly ever work, according to americans, regularly does.

No, the client has no part in the exploitation.
