  • Harris might have a better chance

    For sure. Good luck grabbing her by the balls.

  • Lemmy's waste of energy is negligible compared to crypto token systems. Also transaction throughput isn't a requirement - if my shitpost comments take an hours to get through, literally nobody cares.

    That gotta be the worst false equivalency argument I've ever seen.

  • Proof of Stake only shines compared to Proof of Work. There's no consensus algorithm that isn't blown out of the water by conventional database tech performance-wise and there never will be because of the network character of blockchain tech.

    Token-bros (I refuse to give you the term "crypto", it stands for cryptography) ignore this, maybe even rightly so, since the benchmark cannot be conventional tech if you're trying to implement trustlessness (the DB would be controlled by some entity like a bank) but since there is no trustlessness (trust the network, the devs, the exchange for real money, etc), it's a baseless idea.

  • The popularity of casinos and lotteries say otherwise.

  • Theoretically yes. But practically, the whole tech hasn't reached any noteworthy application at the same age as the Android OS.

    The tech is garbage because of its inefficiency and blockchain's only selling point, trustlessness, is a lie because you have to trust someone eventually to get your tokens - or your notary substitute not to fuck up the code of your smart contract (lol).

    This only works for criminals in countries that don't give a shit if you scam foreigners, like Russia, for example. They know full well who those criminals are though. But that's fine. Blockchain tech never was meant for privacy (how could it with the ledger being public?)

  • It's similarly hyped but deep learning has real applications wherever huge amounts of data are involved. The only application to blockchain tech is online crime.

  • Just in case anyone here is one of the (in this case unlucky) 10000: you should never stick to the default password. Sometimes people crack the algorithm those are generated with making a whole product series or even brand hackable.

  • The official support of Windows 7 has finally ended today!

  • Huh. And here I thought, Piece Of Shit Ready required at least Windows 10.

  • I also don't want to have to talk to it, so switching to Home Assistant with Zigbee

    That's what started it all for me. I have some Hue lights for TV backlighting and started looking for alternatives when Philipps first threatened making their cloud account mandatory.

    Threw out the bridge, works like a charm and I have been buying new devices and return everything I cannot setup locally but it's annoying because they don't always tell about their crappy app and cloud accounts on the product info.

    That's the big one, sadly.

  • Joke's on you - I can't even reach my Zigbee devices in the next room, your car won't have a chance from the street. That'll make it easier to convince it to come back home though.

  • I wish. Every fucking bank has their own shitty app for 2FA instead of just using standardized and proven TOTP, no way around that.

    Same about school apps the article mentioned since it's connecting to their (one of many) proprietary system, no website for that.

    And recently got into the home automation rabbit hole. Lots of devices that require their fucking app, sometimes with mandatory cloud account, just to connect! And people in reviews even praise how easy it is, it's infuriating! I don't need light bulbs connecting to the internet, thank you very much.
