People to tend to buy the best they can afford. I don't think this is unique to the legal system

They did the absolute minimum to appear to be able to say they are dong something. With official inflation nearing 8%, this is nowhere near enough. SO far equity markets agree this is effectively nothing

I was ineligible to adopt a Daschund from a shelter because my property doesn't have 1 acre of fenced in yard. Other places required 2 veterinarian references (we had 1 reference due to owning a cat). It can be a lot harder than people think to adopt a dog from a shelter

Too be fair I did the same thing 2 years ago and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Drank to much microservice koolaid and ended up with 12 services. Consolidated it down to 7 once initial micro high wore off

How will the government know whos door to kick down? Your wallet doesn't have a physical address.... unless you're hoarding your money on an exchange

I agree, at some point drilling down lower on a biological scale provides no additional value. "Love is nothing but atomic particles interacting" is the logical next step that is just as useless to state

I a lot of areas cops weren't allowed to stop people due to the plague. Only took a few days for that message to reach the general public. Great fun

From the post I don't see any evidence that they killed or even injured anybody.

Any evidence this is the privileged class using it for capital flight and tax evasion and not the common man freeing himself from the economic authorities? In my opinion it doesn't matter. Good for all involved who are taking back control of their wealth

Look at Turkish Lira inflows into crypto in recent months. You'll see the value. Also check out the inflow of USD as the Federal Reserve printed trillions of new dollars

The idea is it's not beholden to a government (though still somewhat centralized somewhere). Crypto is helping people in Turkey store value. With current inflation and economic conditions in the US and Europe more may need it in the near future.

Its programming in its purest form, lambda calculus

Add NYC to that list as well. There's no reason to move to either of those cities in 2022.

I like the theory however, I don't think a state owned and funded initiative could ever compete with Microsoft/Google/Amazon etc....

Can you think of a good alternative other than outlawing Microsoft 365? I want these services to be spread out however this particular idea would make the EU even more sluggish than it already is
