  The only good thing out of NFTs was that I learned what fungible means.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Datacenters are becoming a target in warfare for the first time⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Anyone else a little surprised by the realization that if an enemy took out all datacenters it would actually improve a lot of things and take us back 20 years to the golden age of the internet?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fascism bad.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Not sure what you mean, but yes hyper competitiveness leads to less value for human life.

  My point was that it’s a negative sum game, we are all competing with each other in an unhealthy manner, in which we are all poorer collectively as a result.

  And it’s not even helping evolution since merit isn’t correlated to financial success.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta acquires AI agent social network Moltbook⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think any sci fi medium ever predicted making robots for the sake of talking to each other.

  The fuck is the benefit.

  Usually when robots start talking to each other, that’s the start of the conflict in the book.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fascism bad.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Since as humans we essentially rule the earth, it makes a lot of sense for us to adapt to a new reality that shouldn’t need fear.

  But that’s assuming we wouldn’t just spend all our time competing with each other in a negative sum game.

  Without clicking I knew who you linked to.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Retvrn To Tradition⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Feels really weird to see him as an actor

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s things like this that make me, as a man, to prefer male servers/drivers.

  If women chose other women, that’s fine but I do feel bad about the men getting less work, so I think it’s only fair to balance the demand gap by allowing men to chose male servers/drivers.

  That behaviour would probably have the opposite effect that the people who created this rule would want.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Positive affirmations from your favorite captains⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  My issue with the “you’re not a burden” is that, it may be true but you can totally be a burden.

  Whereas I think it’s always okay to ask for help.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Worst day of the year⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  My favourite fact about this topic is that there is a significant bump in car accidents twice a year due to day light saving change.

  So we literally sacrifice a few lives here and there cause it used to benefit factories (not fully recalling the reason, I think it was for WWII)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I blame Obama⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Why not just do half day next day for schools so kids can stay up?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bird Law⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you, I needed this post to rest before I continue with all the other politics stuff.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨congrats!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Man, I miss the time that this is what bots meant

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Online age-verification tools spread across U.S. for child safety, but adults are being surveilled⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  stored locally on your device

  While I would trust that for a FOSS app, it would be too easy for a proprietary app to just “backup” your data.

  With the physical method, everyone can be sure they are anonymous through common sense.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Online age-verification tools spread across U.S. for child safety, but adults are being surveilled⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  How about a system where I can go physically to a shop, show them my id, then the clerk allows me to buy a box of tokens that I picked up from the shelf.

  I can pay with cash, the clerk just looks at my face and ID, nothing gets entered into the system.

  Then I have a bag of tokens that could have various expire dates. Some could last years. They are not tied to any person in anyway but only adults could access them.

  And yes, I can totally give it to some kids, but that’s no different than me buying kids alcohol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Satellite firm pauses imagery after revealing Iran's attacks on US bases⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Still better than the sandwich from WWI

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oracle plans thousands of job cuts as data center costs rise⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Ideally yeah but what if big tech controls all the jobs cause they just keep acquiring other companies?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Motorola GrapheneOS devices will be bootloader unlockable/relockable⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I too am curious, imo the headphone jack removal was the first sighs of enshitification.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨RIP Bozo⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m glad that lemmy is threading the very thin needle of saying the supreme leader was bad but the US attacks aren’t justified cause of him.

  Bravo

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The reason why the US president loves McDonald's so much is simply because he's a world-class narcissist and it sounds like it's named after him. That's it.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah I think the name is a factor.

  The other factor is simplicity, it’s a very American brand that is iconic.

  It’s also what poor people eat, I think some part of him understands the value of being relatable, ironically though this doesn’t make him relatable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The reason⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Any good sources on this?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨..?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  We should savour this moment cause I feel like this would be the only good thing that is gonna come out of these string of events.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Warning: Facebook Ads for Free Windows 11 Upgrade Will Infect PCs With Malware⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s terrible bait, surprised if it’s working.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"I am especially proud to be the first President in decades who has started no new wars" - Donald J. Trump⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  What war did Biden start?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why nor????⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Counterpoint.

  What if they buried it, like real deep, like 50m+ deep.

  It was at the bottom of a river for 2500 years, it’s honestly more effective than taking the ring right into enemy land.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's literally science⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Your back hurts because you keep the same posture even when your body tells you not to.

  When you have a job, and say work for 3-4 hours, your body will tell you to stop and do something else for a couple hours. But you can’t cause life.

  The ergonomic stuff are fulfilling their purpose by giving you a decent posture, your just holding it too long.

  This is also why being rich would be a solution, even those who are rich but work, they aren’t working 40 hours every week nonstop. It’s also why they are so keen that “golf meetings” are so effective.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨challenge: impossible⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t find it.

  I see the parent mammoth but the baby mammoth is probably suffocating under all that delicious popcorn.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DVDs are the new vinyl records: Why Gen Z is embracing physical media⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hold in your had = physical access.

  NAS counts

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DVDs are the new vinyl records: Why Gen Z is embracing physical media⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I wish blue ray 50 GB discs were more used.

  They have really good shelf life and it would be awesome for things like yearly backup of your photos or some shit like that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon BUSTED for Widespread Scheme to Inflate Prices Across the Economy— Amazon, its vendors, and competing retailers are price fixing, hiking up prices for consumer products⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And to add to that, try searching for a product on a search engine.

  Almost always the first links are Amazon.

  And a lot of times there are no other options.
