@30p87 Okay, looks like we *finally* have *actual* groups in Fedi that are compatible across the board.
I've been waiting for this for so long, I've almost given up all hope.
@yogthos This. Crypto as well.
Having some Internet-wide independent currency is, in my books, a genuinely good idea. It allows people like me to survive under the unfair governments. Yes, plural. I work internationally, you see.
What's happening around this tech with all this scams and market gambling and the fact that everybody jumped on the literally first implementation which is very much underdeveloped (frankly, fucking raw) - well... that sucks, and that creates a blind backlash.
@comfy There's a certain art to using sarcasm and other forms of irony on the Internet.
Irony only works if everybody is in on the joke. Even the butt of the joke, unless it is your explicit intention to offend them. Otherwise, it's just being an insufferable asshole. Because you end up just confusing and/or offending random people. No bueno.
My recipie: read the room. If you're unsure your irony will be recognized, don't use it. Just fucking don't.
@tamal3 is right.
Fucking hell, people, go touch some grass, go meet real human beings. Not everybody adheres to the moral code you construct in your head, and that is FINE!!
@infinite_ass What about everyone else? Will my friends be happy and secure with it? People I don't know or care about? Hell, even my enemies?
I highly doubt it.
> This chip was put there by very good, smart people who want only the best for the world.
Which version of the "best for the world" are we talking? Your "best for the world" does not necessarily match my "best for the world".
@slazer2au Yes!
