if it were not for the state, who would build the roads?

Don't get too weirded out by the CBDCs yet; the Fed is, at best, running a virtualized pilot program to observe ledger consensus and better define the network. For big-s States, crytpo consensus methods mean faster, automated transactions that can displace the time-sink that is SWIFT, and for the Fed specifically it's ensuring that they have the answer to a post-SWIFT model. So BRICS will probably keep SWIFT going in some form and the West will, over the next decade, continue piloting, testing, and expanding the project right up until the point where enough stores don't take cash (for reasons of insecurity or whatever).

god windows is so fucking slow

Just played my old SFC, immediately realized how quicker it is to even boot them up compared to current year cruft.

Back then:
1. Mario flashes.
2. Title screen.
3. Game starts.

Now:
1. "Powered by Unity" appears.
2. Developer's logo appears.
3. Publisher's logo appears.
4. Logo of the audio dependency appears.
5. Logo of another dependency appears.
6. Logo of yet another dependency appears.
7. Copyright (which is a scam) warning appears.
8. Anti-piracy warning appears.
9. Skippable intro, but unskippable at first boot.
10. Title screen.
11. If new game, force the user to waste 30 minutes to 1 hour to watch to the intro movie.
12. Tutorial level.
13. FINALLY the game sta...no wait, yet another tutorial.
14. Detailed instructions on how to jump using the A button.
15. OK, now the game starts!

> Just because something is old doesn’t make it bad. It makes it mature.

FINALLY, somebody gets it!
The reason why I prefer the old stuff over the new stuff is because the old stuff just works.

SysV works better than SoystemD, GTK2 works better than GTK3 and 4 combined, XMPP works better than whatever came after that, online forums, BBS's, newsgroups, and IRC all work better than Discucked, Guilded, ChatWork, Slack, or whatever else, static HTML+CSS-only websites work better than all the WordPress, Medium, Blogspot, some weird SoyScript required frontends, and all the other unnecessary cruft, old SFC, MD, PS1, N64, and older PC games are more fun than current year PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, or mobile gatcha gaymes, and so on.

Apparently, gatcha gaymes are better than all the current year AAA console and PC crap, simply because the gatcha gayme community stood up against censorship early on.

The government dox invoice soystem is going great already...
Yet another example of whatever the government touches gets destroyed.

声優業界、インボイス制度に反対　7割が年収300万以下・2割が廃業検討「夢のない話」政治イメージの影響に複雑な心境
(Voice acting industry opposes the invoice soystem, about 70% of them earn less than 3 million yen a year, about 20% considers closing their business due to the "futureless" political image)

("Futureless" is actually "dreamless story", but I had to change it to have it make sense in English, also I had to remove some words for this reason as well.)

@djsumdog @coolboymew Whether real or not, either way the mainstream media all around the world are responsible for enabling the mass-hysteria in the first place.
If nobody would have taken them as seriously, this wouldn't have happened.
And perhaps they'd just be going straight into war mongering or cloymet chainge instead, because they always need to scam the people somehow.

my God this is terrible

Regarding my last post. "Art isn't dead, you're just stuck watching corporate sh**" (Disney/Marvel/DC/EA Games/Blizzard/ Activision)

I was talking with a friend about it.
90% of what I consume is indie media. Bcz I learned habits that allow me to find cool indie stuff seamlessly.

But it can be hard for ppl who are used to just consume what is trending, to just go off the grid with their media.

Maybe we need something like a "manual to abandon corporate media". It could be a Zine.

Here's one more problem with the modern Internet.

Novel and new innovations of the network effect are no longer built as open protocols.

Instead, they're built as proprietary APIs, or are based on someone else's proprietary API.

This is what effectively happened with Twitter. Their API was only "open" insofar as they allowed access. The moment the pulled access -- too bad for everyone building off their open API!

To wit, new open protocols were (and are!) needed.

In order to keep the Fediverse a safe and friendly environment free of hate, we’ve published a blocklist. We recommend everyone block this list of servers. Thank you.

There are some people who believe SARS-CoV2 is not a real virus. There are others who believe CoV2 is a real virus but was completely overblown in its danger (99.98% survival rate if you're under 60) and that the untested mRNA drugs have likely injured or killed at least as many people as CoV2, if not more (probably 1%~2% I'm going to guess).

I'm in the later camp, but let's be honest: there is no effective difference between both of those possibilities. The end result, as far as rampant authoritarianism, mass-hysteria and the planned demolition of global economies, is the true outcome of the scamdemic.

"If twitter goes down, i'll probably leave internet for good, because social networks are stupid"

imagine reducing the whole internet experience to one site.

But also imagine having a life that you could leave the internet if you wanted
