Because the trick is to boil the frog slowly. Even the most dense simpleton understands that having no rights means having no rights.

But if you have some rights, starting next Tuesday, and the government keeps extending the start date, you have something to look up to.

Of course, it will be postponed forever.

Sadly I've let go. Switched to some other small and fanless things. Surprisingly with x86-64!

Sure, come over the our EU utopia...

Come to think of it, if only it would be possible to do a swap. Half a mil a year to live in SF sounds harsh but worth the risk.

I never understood what Libreboot does on top of Coreboot. As far as I could tell it's a "distro" of Coreboot that just disables some things and maybe adds a few patches.

All the heavy lifting is done by Coreboot.

I find the obsession of ignoring how a person died shocking.

Sure, let's remember the person (I never knew before). But... should we pretend he was not stabbed!?

What is wrong with you people?

How a person died is very much relevant for that person and for the world you are living in.

This reminds me of the Ian Murdock suicide. You know, a very much public person in the tech world. Whose death was very much hush hushed because... what? You're not supposed to notice an interaction with the police would unhinge a person (even more)? That he probably also had mental health problems?

It's amazing that for the past 8 years (almost to the day!) imgur has been hosting your screenshots.

This is 100% what survivor bias sounds like.

Every party is what you make of it. Every job. Every business. Every interaction.

Except, you know, when this other thing is overhyped and one hopes getting there helps and it turns out... it's not any different than anything else?

(Internal) metrics say otherwise.

Lol.

Dude, reading comprehension much?

I literally started 'by that logic' to underline how broken the whole initial comment was!

Do only smart people use fiat? Like... it's not even worth dissecting your reply.

By this logic most large scale human suffering before crypto was created by fiat.

Most of current human suffering is still fiat.

Crypto is barely a blip in the grand scheme and I don't see how it differs from, say, gambling.

It's blurry because it crosses state boundaries into random countries which don't make this available.

You reply makes no sense. On a grammatical and conceptual level.

You think your internet provider will just allow you do a Bitcoin TX?
