Wait, so you’re telling me that every time I swipe my VISA and smugly explain to the cashier that I’m a crypto bro, I’ve been the fool all along? Please excuse me while I begin to question everything in my life

Strange hill for them to die on… A quick search makes it obvious that CBDCs use cryptography

Just looked it up and that’s about 11 smoots / second! That is pretty fast!

70 km/h sounds like a lot, is it a lot?

The “install lib-blah-blah-blah” bit doesn’t bother me 'cause whenever I need to make something work, I just copy and paste the “sudo apt install …” commands straight from the internet :)

Would any ladies reading be willing to reveal any place they go before or after target that they’d be more inclined to chat with a stranger? I doubt Target is the place to socialize, but maybe you grab food or stop at a park to break up your errand run?

If you can scavenge some barrels without tops, you can fill them and let them sit in the sun to dechlorinate the water

Whelp, here’s a toast to the future where the creators we enjoy can be supported through a more federated system.

I don’t think there’s any way to beat YouTube’s infrastructure right now, and you can’t even replicate it without a steady supply of blank checks.

Any geniuses out there know how to think of a system design that’s FOSS, competes with YT’s pay structure, and who knows what’s the best supply for that pay? I hate advertisements.

How do we take the money that we already spend for subscription services and funnel that into some kind of pool to be equitably distributed to content creators?

I just checked my subscriptions and my YouTube Premium is still grandfathered in at $9.99/mo from my Google Play Music subscription that included Google Red.

Myself and family listen to music all the time, and YouTube without ads has paid for itself with dev tutorials, DIY videos and other educational stuff; I can’t run aBO on my TV. As soon as they find a way to kick me off my current rate, I’ll bail, but until then I can’t find a cheaper fit for my needs.
