binomialchicken@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Technology@lemmy.world•Linus Torvalds and Bill Gates Meet for the First Time EverEnglish11·14 days agoYeah, 10% went to good causes but imagine what the society could afford if 100% went through instead of 0.
It’s the US, so more weapons I presume.
binomialchicken@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Virgin PhysicistsEnglish4·3 months agoSaw midwest.social, was not disappointed
binomialchicken@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•OnlyOffice every single time I flip between it and another appEnglish2·3 months agoIsn’t this just a function of the OS, and not the app?
binomialchicken@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto World News@lemmy.world•A dozen Tesla cars burned at French store, arson is suspected amid global protestsEnglish1·4 months agoInsurance generally does not cover arson, but I don’t know if their policy specifically does. If it was covered, the insurance company is going to consider raising the premiums for coverage. If enough dealerships have to make claims due to arson, all dealerships may have increased premiums, or may even become uninsurable, which would likely stop them from operating at all.
binomialchicken@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What do people (as in, IRL) actually think of the [alleged] perpetrator involved in the NYC shooting?English3·7 months agoI was offended at first glance, but then remembered that there were two shootings at my old apartment, and I have a cop friend of a friend that regularly posts dashcam footage from his car chase of the week in the discord. I’m also kinda fat, so the rest seems to check out.
binomialchicken@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto News@lemmy.world•Crypto entrepreneur eats banana art he bought for $6.2mEnglish1·7 months agoDo you feel the same way about centralized currency’s apparatuses? Visa, MasterCard, Chase, BoA, PayPal, the U.S. Mint, the FBI’s anti-counterfeiting department, point-of-sale terminal manufacturers, etc. These all use so much more resources than all of crypto combined, not to mention the human lives wasted to support it all.
You say that if crypto disappeared, nothing would happen. I posit that if fiat currencys disappeared (and were replaced by a crypto that isn’t energy intensive) that you would have a net improvement to global society. You could hand out lifelong annuity/pension/UBI for all the displaced workers, pay them to dump all the executives/shareholders at the bottom of the ocean, and still have excess money left over. All those former bank tellers would have time to pursue their interests, and maybe produce some music/art/whatever for the rest of us along the way. (Bitcoin and proof-of-work’s energy waste do need to be trashed though.)

binomialchicken@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto News@lemmy.world•Nancy Pelosi’s husband sold Visa shares 2 months before a DOJ lawsuit — some say the trade shouldn't have been allowedEnglish2·9 months agoThere is no reason to worry about enforcement of insider trading, after a law is passed to prevent them from holding any stocks at all (except maybe index funds)
binomialchicken@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto politics @lemmy.world•Presidential candidate Cornel West loses bid for Pennsylvania ballotEnglish31·10 months agoLemmy is hostile to virtue signaling that leads nowhere (or somewhere worse if enough people do it). Post an idea that’s actually useful instead, and we will intently listen.
binomialchicken@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto politics @lemmy.world•US woman died after abortion ban delayed her medical care: reportEnglish5·10 months agoIt was in the New York Times and ProPublica. Others are probably just getting to it.
binomialchicken@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto politics @lemmy.world•J.D. Vance just sold out his family to defend Trump and Laura LoomerEnglish6·10 months agoMe too! My favorite is that some river turtles can breathe through their assholes.

binomialchicken@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto News@lemmy.world•Republicans point finger at Laura Loomer for Trump’s pet-eating rantEnglish1·10 months agoDoes this sound like a right wing conspiracy theorist to you? https://youtu.be/NWxISwEBU0U
Bro you either know what the fuck is in that file, or you shouldn’t be renaming it in the first place.
