Finally some good news!

Income taxes go back into services that help society. How do you expect a government to fund any of the infrastructure and services that you take for granted around you without it?

Get a trade and make bank. University educated skillsets aren’t as in demand as tradespeople, and I believe that is going to be more true over time.

Also your training is cheap, paid even, unlike university.

Does anyone believe we will ever Act Now? We need massive, fundamental change to our current capitalist society. Impossible to do so without revolution or global societal collapse IMO.

Don’t call me out like that…

100K per year if I can stop and lose that continued money at any time.

As the other commenter said, time shift will save you too. Snapper built into Tumbleweed is pretty good though as well as YasT.

As an NVIDIA user, snapper has saved me multiple times.

Thank the gods for these Indian men. They’ve saved me countless times with their simple solutions to incredibly specific problems.

Same probably. I’ve got a young child now so Factorio is not a responsible hobby to pick up again.

We generally sided with Diana over here.

To me personally, the Queen had a lot of wisdom in consulting the government from a life of many experiences. Charles seems like a bit of a silver spoon baby. I just don’t think the monarchy has any value beyond celebrity gossip.

That’s a really good point. So many of my friends who used silk road would be multimillionaires if they didn’t spend the btc.

It’s got a lot of “Dictators in Cars getting Coffee” energy to it.

This is such a monkeys paw. You have a drive with $500 million USD of Bitcoin, but the drive is somewhere in the local landfill.

Such a curse, I can’t imagine the regret they feel every day getting up for work.

After 10 years though, isn’t it just gone/destroyed? Rain/corrosion would have destroyed the drive by now.

If they can land this one, it would buy them a lot of good will. Just keep the monetisation people away from it…

Would YouTube get shittier if Google was broken up? I was under the understanding that YouTube is a loss leader service for Google, but I still think its one of the best social media sites on the web. Even when you consider the number of ads (that doesn’t affect a revanced user).

Hahaha, touché. To be fair though, a lot of people struggle with email.

And if an easier version of email existed, email mightn’t have caught on.

He’s more than capable of joining the fediverse, but he’s also a UI/UX designer. I would say his main issue with the fediverse is the amount of friction between a normie being exposed to the concept and actually signing up and engaging with it.

You have to admit that it isn’t the simplest thing to do. People have to understand the concept of the fediverse, find an instance that will accept them, sign up (with confirmation required from the instance mods) and then find out how to find communities that they are interested in.

It’s not about whether a tech-savvy person can figure it out with some effort, it’s about whether normal people can transition away from a monolithic, streamlined, social media to it.

Mountain bike riding with friends mainly. Also just bush walkkng/hiking.

How? There is just too many people, too few houses here in Australia. Not enough materials to build them or tradespeople.
