Because I don’t want to be forced to adapt by others.

We are all forced all the time to follow social norms. Short of moving to a cabin in the woods, this is inescapable, for better or worse. In this master/main debate it seems like we can make some people happy with minimal cost. In the end it is a tiny irrelevance, when compared to other norms being changed.

"main" is shorter than "master". "sub" is shorter than "slave". Why worry about social issues when you can just type less and move on? :)

Burning olive oil can't melt copper bars! The attack on the twin ziggurats was an inside job masterminded by the King of Uruk, Gilga W Mesh!

100%. I often hear the argument "we're not where it will happen first" when people don't want to take any action. Implicitly they know and even welcome climate change mowing down the global south. When asked if billions of climate refugees fit in their plan they handwave it away.

In the not too distant future the world will lose a lot of coastline.

Which is where 80% of people live.

Bitcoin has a marked capitalization of about 30 billion USD. A S-400 air defense system costs 1.2 billion USD. So you could trade 25 of those systems using the entire "supply" of bitcoin. Russia calimed to have about 450 of these systems before the war. Even if they would use bitcoin for trading military equipment, cryptocurrency simply does not have the volume to pay for a meaningful amount of equipment.

I used to have an account on feddit, which is a german lemmy instance. For three months now I am only getting "Server error" when trying to visit it. Can anybody reach it? Is there any site where I can check the state of instances? Or was I banned?

Thanks for any help :)
