This meme gets funnier and funnier every time I read it!

Crypto enthusiasts don’t really care or understand decentralization. If you talk to crypto bros you will realize pretty quickly that a lot of them are very very low IQ morons.

I was at an event and met a crypto bro. He tried to explain to a group of us that btc is like moss and the world is the forest. A couple people legitimately “got it” and began to get excited about crypto.

For better or worse it is unrealistic to expect business to just eat rising costs just because they got into business before the costs were so high. That would be nice but it’s just not how the world works. If that were true then entire economies would collapse every time there was an economic shock.

That’s a very interesting idea.

Quick question, you say 80% of the carbon is stored in the root and that you can harvest hemp 4 times a year. Do you harvest the roots when you harvest it? Or are you only harvesting 20% of the total captured carbon on each harvest?

It is shorthand for “number”. N°6 is read as “Number Six”.

Get out of here with your reasoning. It’s more fun to feign outrage because it gives me an opportunity to feel smart. If you start to invalidate my superiority by pointing out how arbitrary and dramatic my response is then I’m going to downvote you.

Well, if your argument is: “any company that becomes a monopoly will abuse monopoly power”, then sure I agree with you. You got me there!

My argument is: “given a reliable financial alternative to advertising, a company will be able to resist enshitification for a long time, as long as there is no absolute tyrannical monopoly.”

I assumed the last part was implied and I’m sorry for the confusion!

You have to pay for kagi so they are not incentivized to serve ads. They are incentivized to give you a good set of search results so you keep paying.

They know it’s not 89°. They are messing with the perfectionists and a bunch of you took the bait.

This is standard. You always get rid of the upper management. You give them a lot of money and a round of applause and then you put your own people in. Everyone at the top will be Microsoft.

“wow you have the entire knowledge of the world in your pocket what do you use it for?”

“Tiktok.”

They had to sell the console distribution fights to Ubisoft so at least you can look forward to that!

Hey please don’t reply to my comments. Thanks!

This meme is dank and if you don’t like politics that’s totally fine but you don’t get to dictate to others what this community is about.

It is remotely true. Waving German flags at soccer games was essentially non-existent. Germans are more likely to identify as European rather than German, compared to other EU nations. If you ask Europeans “is your culture superior” people like Greeks say yes but people like Germans say no.

A good example would be the UK or France .They believe they are top dogs but, by US standards, they are impoverished.

This is an obvious bad example because German nationalism died with Hitler. Of all European countries, Germany hates itself the most.

In order to grow a chat app you need a consistent and stable interface over a long period of time. It can’t have too much bullshit in it either.

In order to grow your career at Google you need to build ridiculous shit and then leave once you get your promo. Entire departments get reorged so someone can hit their people manager quota.

Product groups, business units, “orgs”, VPs, SVPs, it’s all just a game and “everyone’s playing except you.” This is why Google kills shit. Because Google rewards behavior that results in killing shit.
