  Crypto bro here and I agree wholeheartedly. Crypto shouldn’t be anyone’s whole personality. Social networking doesn’t need money baked into it - it just needs decentralized moderation, and we can donate out of band. Anyone who wants to improve society somewhat should be on the fediverse right now.

  So… um… bring back Jack Dorsey?

  Can confirm, I’ve been a Wikipedia zealot the entire time and people really do seem to have accepted it. If you ignore what else makes them cheer, it’s a huge victory.

  Well then they should post more because it doesn’t look like prices are dropping.

  Isn’t his job to bet with other people’s money?

  Bitcoin is basically just gold but digital. It’s sucking away investment capital; one of the chief criticisms against it is that deflation discourages business investment.

  Your investment in mutual funds is also an investment in Nvidia which is also an investment in OpenAI. But bitcoin/gold isn’t contributing to the value of anything else.

  It’s like having an incompetent assistant. Worth it kinda I guess? Just don’t give them anything important.

  Then you won’t have time to push the button, especially with a hinged cover. They know they’re coming, you won’t.

  If you’re worried about your door getting kicked in, then you need to take out the battery, fully encrypt the hard drive, and wrap the power cable around your ankle.

  You should probably have some plan for if you’re put under duress, but I sure don’t and would immediately decrypt all of my secret gay porn.

  This is what it looks like when they’re legally forced to do something, but still don’t want to do it, and their customers are idiots who can afford to pay for redundant features.

  So you know, goverment inefficiency. /s

  I’m still worried about going over a bridge and not finding a smashy object fast enough.
