i just wish that new technology that came out was cool and good and made our lives better. When I was a kid all the phones went from landlines with boingy cords to wireless! The internet went from annoying dial-up noises that turned off the phone to so fast you could watch a movie faster than you could download a song just 5 years prior. Cars started coming with the unlocking button fob! THE BUTTON YOU PRESS TO UNLOCK YOUR CAR! it was so cool! Now all the technology sucks man. When's the last time some little cool gizmo came out that made our lives better?

This is fanfiction. There's no analysis of power, no analysis of capital, no understanding of the overwhelming problems with any blockchain technology.

And worse it's boring. If you're going to be a leftist crank about some weird thing, do aliens or something

Just to entertain the idea for a second that some shitcoin will actually level the global market. Let's ignore the fact that there are plenty of ways to re-annonymize coins and all the other problems with it.

What would compel any holder of large capital to use it? What is the fulcrum of power that will stop these entities from using fiat currencies? If the global system right now benefits them so much (it does) why would they give it up and use something that doesn't?

embarassingly naive. The only thing Blockchain technology is good at is fleecing people who still havn't realized its a failed technology with no future beyond money laundering and scamming rubes

there's an alternate reality where the USSR won and Comrades of Duty (it sounds better in Russian) is the most popular video game series and there's a level where you get to absolutely whip down a river gunning down nazis in this thing

reminds me of the person who said they couldnt live without the electrolytes provided to them by slamming 3 gatoraids per day, and thats why they couldnt do some kinda boycott or whatever. even if that were true why wouldnt you just stay quiet about it

The thing I really like about Farscape is that after the first two seasons, it really felt like the plot was always moving somewhere. Five seasons of great serialized storytelling that never felt like it was spinning its wheels like The Walking Dead did. But I do have to give a shoutout to the Farscape parody that was on Stargate : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCNDdlCo4rA made even better because both of the leads of Farscape went to Stargate

I checked the top 5 results for Black Ribbon day on google. Somehow none of them mention the holocaust.
