Fiat has value because the government demands taxes in it. If you don’t pay your taxes, they put you in jail.

That’s the point of crypto - unless you can alter 51% of the blockchain, you can’t.

yeah, the cryptoleftists community has found some decent actual use

- Comment on 'It's Possible to jailbreak F-35 like iPhone', Says Dutch State Secretary of Defense Tuinman 2 weeks ago:
Worked as an American consultant for the Dutch government in IT, can confirm this absolutely. It’s a case of finding private companies to funnel money to instead of actually creating capacity, all because of the incorrect illusion that the private sector is magically efficient.

Graphene and e/OS exist.
Problem with Graphene is the limitation of hardware to Pixel due to manufacturers.
e/OS is good, but the missing killer app for me is contactless payment. Which brings Europe back to the Visa/MC problem. Digital Euro could fix this.

So what are you seeing with your own eyes?

See above

Your math doesn’t add up. Capitalism kills 18 million a year. Even with the bad math of The Black Book Of Communism (so bad even one of its own authors says it’s bullshit), that means capitalism beat communism in deaths in under 6 years.

heh yeah, Lemmy gives me old phpBB vibes sometimes

Exactly. It’s like people that move to Bluesky, which is under private control, and then are shocked when abuses start there.
The problem is exactly that social spaces shouldn’t be privately owned and a source of profit. Until you address that, the slop hellsites will always wind up that way.

Yeah, people seeing pictures of children being killed in a genocide and reacting badly is obviously just a conspiracy!

Apparently worked better than the alternative . . .
Saying communism isn’t the answer since it will get abused, when your alternative is capitalism, is like saying dating someone in recovery is a bad idea, and that’s why you only look for abusive people who are currently drunk.

I think the Digital Euro is going to be a better idea long term - taking off the hidden tax of payment processor fees is going to make businesses and people richer.
