- Comment on We should be boycotting USD 1 week ago:
Another reason is that USD is deeply intertwined with fossil fuel production and trade.
99.9 % of the cryptocurrency space is bullshit but in the remainder there are some viable alternatives to state issued currencies. Unfortunately difficult to discuss due to the prevalence of bullshit, and easy to criticise to make yourself look smart & moral while defending the status quo.
maybe it’s possible to make a coin that’s worth 0 USD but can be exchanged like USD
Hard to imagine how would that work, I guess if you can use it to purchase, you can use it to exchange w/ USD. And then you get the business types who tend to ruin everything. Maybe very small local currencies could kinda work that way? Chaumian e-cash mints, like GNU Taler & others.

- Comment on Great guy 3 months ago:
When I was younger, maybe junior high, I got roped into watching my 3 month old niece while my sister got her hair done. So there I am, sitting in the waiting area of a hair salon with my niece, and who walks in but Keanu Reeves!
I was nervous as fuck, and just kept looking at him as he read a magazine and waited, but didn’t know what to say. Pretty soon though my niece started crying, and I’m trying to quiet her down because I didn’t want her to bother Keanu, but she just wouldn’t stop. Pretty soon he gets up and walks over. He started running his hands through her hair and asking what was wrong. I replied that she was probably hungry or something. So, Keanu put down his magazine, picked up my niece and lifted his shirt. He breast fed her right there in the middle of a hair salon. Chill guy, really nice about it.
