Haha, Im here for people flipping out comments :)

Don’t celebrate. She did her part, and there’s little doubt she’ll be rewarded with an extremely well-paying job and a political future.

Where can I get the crypto?

From personal experience I can say that I found no hate in the product, no ads, no fraud and unfortunately I haven’t found any crypto there…

It’s a really good package. Brave has great UX. I like the concept of Firefox, but when I want to use a browser, brave offers the best and the most robust experience.

I know it’s hated around lemmy, but I also know a lot of it is not based. I try alternatives every now and then, but the usage is just sub par. Just tried Firefox for a month. Had too many issues. Brave works.

No. I mean you can get all philosophical and say that everything has value only because that’s a human concept, but thats not really something I would answer to.

Fiat has value because it’s enforced. Because we have institutions that enforce it and because all of our lives are intertwined with it. We buy food with it and we are paid with it. It’s everywhere. It doesn’t make it immune to manipulation and fraud and crime, but we can take legal action because law is also intertwined with the same system.

Crypto is , with a couple of exceptions, a really terrible casino.

Yes.

I think it’s an exaggeration of its crime utility. Normal money is king for crime.

I think most people don’t understand cryptocurrencies. On one side it’s all hyperbolic about being your own bank and financial freedom and new tech, on the other side it’s hyperbolic about how there is no underlying value, it’s all going to 0, scams, drugs, terrorism, money laundering,…

But the fact is that crypto does have an underlying value. It’s gambling. Gambling is a huge industry.

Even more than so many eu institutions haven’t even despite that.

I watched some of the parts and I thought she did amazingly well, in MAGA terms. There is no way she could do it better with all the facts against her.

She doged questions, she did incoherent rants, interrupted people constantly, attacked the interviewers. It was despicable, everything MAGA like. I don’t see why they aren’t thrilled about her. She was trump on steroids.

It is, tho.

I don’t know, seems like somebody should do something about this.

Well why wouldn’t they? This is the point, to use fear and violence against anyone and have full immunity. That is exactly why they are there. The outrage makes no sense.

I would to in that situation 😁

Cool music though.

Maduro is deeply unpopular in Venezuela and the country is in a really bad place.

Sure, America is probably one of the main reasons for that, but Maduro is high up there himself.

Best case scenario, this could turn out ok. Worst case, for the average person, probably not much difference.

The real world is influenced with what billionaires project. It’s not separated.

He’s not going to cancel elections. He doesn’t need to do it. He can delay results claiming fraud or not even that, just ignore the Congress.

And maybe he won’t even need to do that. Just purge voters, strict voting laws enforcement, gerrymandering, just plain voter fraud.

And maybe he won’t even need to do that, because republicans may still keep both houses without any fraudulent activity. Yes. There is a good chance that happens. You maybe read of a few disappointed voters, but most people are still 100% maga.

I work a a software company that mainly develops one online software and people are used to work with computers. But even here I feel like there is some strange invisible barrier.

IT was trained to work on windows. What we do - everything works. The cost is there, calculated, it’s actually pretty small compared to everything else.

Changing is just unimaginable for a company like that - to take this risk, and for so little upside.

At a user level, almost no one would have an issue. But at the process level, damn.

I switched to Manjaro and it’s like nothing has changed for the work I do now.

At work we use windows and I don’t imagine that will ever go away. I don’t know enough about this stuff anyway, but I think there is to much work and risk involved to change.
