if your cryptocurrency project is primarily centered around discord, telegram, or google docs, (or github for that matter) you've already failed to learn why cryptocurrencies exist and probably won't matter in the long run.

bitcoin runs on irc and a mailing list, just like linux.

@otso how's that going to help me get work done

neat reading, and while i don't subscribe to the sars-cov-2 lab leak theory, it's interesting that the 1977 flu has a lot of the same circumstantial clues around it.

Discord's meteoric rise continues, with even more people jumping on the bandwagon. It's a very bad thing, as Discord is likely going to sell your entire DM history, in plaintext, to their acquirer in a deal for cash and stock in the next 24-36 months.

It's not e2e encrypted. Everything you've ever typed into Discord in a DM is about to become readable to Microsoft or whoever else buys them, tied to your email and phone number and payment card.

i am really bored with the non-programming internet, and i don't have the attention span this quarter to do a lot of programming, and i won't play in the corporate censorship social pool (thereby making it more valuable/attracting others) so please link me to your favorite places on the internet to interact with strangers.

forums, clubs, communities - i miss them, and i know we're still all here, but i won't use twitter or discord or instagram or facebook or youtube.

@surfingalot only if you want to go outside or venture between habs. i imagine there will be big bays for vehicles that have large locks on them, so by the time these places have cities worth visiting, you can probably live mostly without p-suit, much like air travel today.

the falun gong that are getting persecuted by the ccp are:

a) created in 1992 by a con man

b) also behind that shen-yun show that you've seen billboards for

c) anti-atheist and believe that humanity was visited by aliens

d) also run the epoch times, which is

e) super into trump

if this were r/aita this would be an ESH

inb4 strattera (which is first on the list to try)

i have untreated moderate-to-severe ADHD that is actually starting to interfere with my life now, and i don't want to take amphetamines or dopaminergic stimulants to treat it. what are my options?

@surfingalot i mean it's not like anyone's realistically going to be able to have a patio, so what does it matter? LEO/MEO, the moon, mars - they're all going to be completely hermetically sealed with redundant life support systems running 24/7. that's pretty close to my life right now, just with better window seals/insulation, and no walk to the car.

having listened to the entire discography on shuffle 2-3x in full, i am pretty prepared to commit to the opinion that the talking heads are somewhat overrated. they're not bad, but it's not like they're amazing or anything.

archillect keeps dipping into my culture what with the 303 stuff and the 1200 stuff

@vbhide i don't know it, link pls

the M1 ipad pros have a usb-c charging issue. SWIM had issues with both their retail-purchased one as well as a replacement unit. i'm running into issues with mine where it is very picky with usb-c power sources.

@surfingalot if going outside is instant death, then it's fine. antarctica is not instant death, so there are edge cases where you'd be exposed to terrible cold momentarily. being inside 100% of the time in climate control is ideal.

@taoeffect@mstdn.io they come in different wattages, and the usb cable used to bring the power to the mac also needs to support usb-pd

@taoeffect@mstdn.io that is what i mean by PSU

@coolboymew what is that
