I’ve dated a few people who seemed progressive, and I’m a woke-ass queer, but names were a sticking point. I have a complicated welsh travesty of a name I would happily trade in for something shorter - so when I got engaged and I didn’t like his name either, and neither did he, I suggested we both pick something new and change our names together. I mean, if it’s no big deal for me to change my name, it shouldn’t be for him either, right? Anyway, I’m single now.

The war with AI didn’t start with a gun shot, a bomb or a blow, it started with a Reddit comment.

If I wanted to put on pants I wouldn’t have ordered delivery.

I mean, it’s generally considered kind of a slur now? And also because it was a bit racist to begin with, since it measures progress against white, western ideas of progress.

But it’s impossible to have a discussion about crypto with anyone who gets their information from one news source and a bunch of reddit comments, or whatever information you get from people who furiously agree with each other.

I don’t think crypto is great, I think it’s a useful tool.

I don’t think you’re arguing in good faith so w/e. Take it or leave it.

The whole first world-third world designation thing is about as outdated at your information.

Integration isn’t the same as substitution, it means I can pay a dev living in Indonesia in eth and they can deposit it to their bank without having to go through a third party, because it’s a hell of a lot faster, safer and easier than trying to set up an international wire transfer between banks who don’t speak the same language.

Furthermore, if cryptocurrency helps a population regain control of their finances in a failing economy, how is that a bad thing?

They’re all anti-capitalist until they want to bitch about cryptocurrency.

People outside of spaces where cryptocurrency is accepted have a really hard time understanding just how much cryptocurrency is used. Every year it becomes more pervasive and integrated but people keep spouting the same criticisms they have for years.

Most of the opinions here are pretty america-contric.

Btw the article does not reflect the headline and ya’ll should really read it before posting about how NFTs are broken. I wonder if folks would have read the article if they disagreed with the headline.

What about that fish that lives in the anus of sea cucumbers. It basically lives in a fart lair.

I fucking hate Kaizen. I had to go through it as part of a job placement program and was convinced it was a cult. Like no, I am not going to call “Leaving a reminder for myself” a Gemba. I’m calling it a note because the japanese didn’t fucking invent the idea of writing things down for later.

He was called to testify as to whether Kevin Spacey was at a particular event that he and his husband hosted - I don’t think they had much of a choice. Theirs was just part of a bunch of evidence that Spacey wasn’t there.

And I left reddit because it stopped letting me watch porn. Lots of similarities here.
