Man what the fuck am I doing on hexbear. Even the most inconsequential disagreements turn into this sort of bullshit, without fail
The sort of bullshit like pointing out that blockchain technology has a massive carbon footprint and drastically increases the electricity costs of whatever it ostensibly replaced?
No that's pretty much on the money, but it's also a problem with proof-of-work consensus algorithms specifically
I don't know I guess it's just exhausting how everybody has to have a crazy out-there opinion about every fucking thing in or outside their spheres of competence and just loads up that shit with twitter irony like it's free salad at a salad bar
That isn't a generous reading of easily found and irrefutable information about the consequences of blockchain technology.
Sure let me meaningfully engage with "dae le drugs amirite
"
Yes, you can. Is there another use case outside of that? You may not like the way I phrased it, but it was a valid point, not "bullshit crazy out there opinion loaded with twitter irony" as you put it. If you can say your opinion that way I can certainly say mine my way.
You are posting cringe. It's annoying
I don't think so. Not this time, anyway. If you really want to go to bat for blockchain bullshit, that might be cringe though.
I think you're right, you just need to chill
Telling people "you need to chill" works like 5% of the time or less even when people need to chill. It's just hostile and obnoxious in context most of the time. It may feel good for you to say that, but that's all it is to me.
you might be a tad high-strung
i say 5 vodkas down lol
At least there was some flavor to your version. All right, sure, as soon as the crypto peddler in this thread fucks off I'll take a little walk.
lol, fair
There is no crypto peddler in this thread
Get off the trampoline you are not landing those dunks
There is no crypto peddler anymore because that person's comments were removed by moderators.
Get off the trampoline because stanning for the crypto peddler makes your personal petty dunks at me kind of lonely and sad here.
