No dang, I love myself too much for self censorship. Until we meet again

I don't think people realize what kind of serious damage is done to all of humanity by censorship and destroying knowledge of history in this way. It's an enormous tragedy.

Yeah was wondering what people here think. The videos are cool

I enjoyed the humor on the website. Good luck with the business.

In the long term "laws" won't work. What we see throughout history is that they never work and those who are elected to see to it that it works themselves are corrupt.

The best option is to code it in the technology. For example, we can make laws and regulation to see to it that governments don't take more debt or print more money than they should in order not to cause inflation and economic crisis, but what we've seen throughout history is that this never works in the long term.

The better solution was the one Satoshi came up with: program the fixed amount of currency into the Bitcoin technology with computational and mathematical checks. Now it's extremely difficult to do anything else unless you can somehow control or convince the majority of the nodes to accept it.

The same kind of solutions should be developed for the web.

All these products are great but I still can't get a Ryzen 9 3950x anywhere for fucks sake. I'm tired of waiting. Amd should work on their supplies.

Principles on paper won't work. We need to build these principles into the technology at a fundamental level so that anyone using it can't do anything else but use it based on those principles. The technology should require it and not be able to work otherwise unless you break it.

Yes indeed, practically worldwide. As Larken Rose writes in "The most dangerous superstition":

"The purported purpose of schools is to teach reading, writing, mathematics, and other academic fields of thought. But the message that institutions of “education” actually teach, far more effectively than any useful knowledge or skills, is the idea that subservience and blind obedience to “authority” are virtues. The “grades” the student receives, the way he is treated, the signals he is sent — written, verbal, and otherwise — all depend upon one factor: his ability and willingness to unquestioningly subvert his own desires, judgment and decisions to those of “authority.” If he does that, he is deemed “good.” If he does not, he is deemed “bad.” This method of indoctrination was not accidental. Schooling in the United States, and in fact in much of the world, was deliberately modeled after the Prussian system of “education,” which was designed with the express purpose of training people to be obedient tools of the ruling class, easy to manage and quick to unthinkingly obey, especially for military purposes. As it was explained by Johann Fichte, one of the designers of the Prussian system, the goal of this method was to “fashion” the student in such a way that he “simply cannot will otherwise” than what those in “authority” want him to will. At the time, the system was openly admitted to be a means of psychologically enslaving the general populace to the will of the ruling class. And it continues to accomplish exactly that, all over the world, including in the United States."
