I remember when gox went down the last time, everyone saw it coming, there was a couple of dudes who went to japan to stage a very small protest outside their offices. Crypto in the early days was so much more fun, just as much of a ponzi scheme as it is now, but at least it wasnt taken too seriously.

You guys member when the government threatened internet freedom and we all protested about it and then they stopped for a while and came up with a new name for the same bullshit, got the corporations to do the censorship for them and everyone just fell for it because capitalism.

replace SOPA with META, Google, Amazon, Spotify… Fuck all of the corporations trying to profit by taking away our freedoms

You don’t actually have to be that rich to do this…. Check it:

Get yourself a robinhood account, enable margin withdrawl. Invest ALL your money into a few stable ETFs that just track the market (or go crazy and invest it all in TSLA or something, I’m not your daddy). Now you can just loan yourself money while your investment assets increase in value over time… OR if they decrease, you can write off $3000 worth of “capital losses” every year (possibly more, if you run a “business” or something) .

There are a lot of these kind of “tricks” that previously only the wealthy could do before retail investing was so common.

Edit: Reason i say robinhood specifically, not that they are a great corp or anything, its just they happen to have the cheapest rates on their margin loans, it list 5% APY wich is less then pretty much any other kind of loan you could get. If you know of other services that offer good rates please let me know because I hate RH and would rather use almost anyone else.

Why are the fascists all upset about cracker barrel’s logo now? Its a bit funny how their whole thing is like “there’s a white genocide, we must save the white race” but also “we must ensure the purity of corporate logos”

Like I know fascism is just an extension of capitalism, but cracker barrel? Is it because it has “cracker” in the name?

This is why i do my part to abuse AI. I can see the counter point to this being the environmental impact of such usage, but I still think long term its better to abuse these systems now because the sooner they all collapse the sooner we can get the useful bits of what they actually can do working on consumer level hardware.

There isn’t anything inherently wrong with the concept of spicy autocomplete, its just not going to ever reach the level of humans can just trust the output without verifying it. It will save time in the same way that auto-prediction and swipe typing, or dictation speech to text already do, but the amount of VC money flowing into these projects at the moment is based on the complete fantasies of a handful of billionairs who have absolutely zero idea how any of the underlying tech actually works.

It’s Illegal to say…
