And stubbornly entitled

Their uncle must’ve been rug pulled when buying a shitcoin or something and now they believe crypto is nothing but a scam

But yea there’s nothing to do. If you can’t educate them then let them stay in their ignorance if they like it. I just don’t feel that letting them spread their misinformation is a good thing

I’m not discrediting a group or marginalized people haha, I’m discrediting a stupid misinformation and censorship reason

EXTREMELY LIMITED and STATISTICALLY IRRELEVANT experiences.

Surely you’re all professional athletes here. And wtf are you talking about? I’m talking about the studies and researches I’ve done, not things I’ve experienced. You’re just lying.

Then you proceed to do some mocking because your post was pretty much empty of any thing so might as well continue

Get over it. Honestly, get over yourself. Grow up.

I feel you’re the one getting triggered here. This makes it funnier when you see this totally applies to you

You’re right. Let’s do value judgment and not stick to facts. That’s how you get the truth.

You’re being manichean, proving my point. I’m not either with or against you. I don’t have to agree to everything you believe and not actively fighting for more or different trans rights (if this even falls in this category) does not make me transphobic. You’re delusional.

if you sell something for $1 at 10am your $1 still buys $1 at 10pm.

This is untrue for pretty much everything, even fiat. Everything is a market. A good example of this: stocks.

in crypto, it’s easily manipulated, and that’s by design.

Now this is just false. You’re just inventing fake facts here. You clearly know nothing of the history of crypto.

If I sell 1BT worth of something at 10am, it could be worth 2BT at 10pm, but it could also be worth .1BT equally.

Uhh no? 1 BTC will always be 1 BTC. Its value compared to other assets will change though. And in that case it would have less value indeed. You’re just allergic to high variations and high risks assets. Stocks is exactly the same. Some assets vary more than others. Let me assure you the value of BTC will never do a +/-10x in a day

tell me, what governing body or economy is crypto backed by?

Emission (POW, POS…) (or total stock), demand and offer and perceived value, just like everything on earth?

USA also claimed they owned all BTC that went through dark net markets. I don’t care what they think about X or Y thing

But yea that would be considered ML in many countries because you’re hiding the links and making it seem like normal money, which it should be imo

My decision to use Lemmy instead?

No. Your decision to remove the content. It mainly harms those who will check the post later

You don’t understand how crypto works it seems

It literally requires every connected wallet to process the same transactions as everyone else

That’s misleading. Your wallet scans blocks for transactions that goes to your wallet, but this is super fast for many cryptocurrencies. Wallets usually sync in seconds.

this is one of the reasons why even the relatively low amount of transactions that Bitcoin processes costs more electricity than a small modern country.

No. The main reason is block size and block emission period. Also, you’re completely forgetting the fact that non Proof Of Work cryptocurrencies exist, and have close to 0 electricity cost

The entire idea behind it is what a third grader might come up with and think it’s a great idea. It’s not.

If they do they’re pretty much a fucking genius for their age

Wtf are you talking about

Lemmy in a nutshell haha

Breaking news! Criminals (but not only) use crypto, and people get scammed. This happens as well with fiat, so that must surely mean fiat is a scam!

Flawless logic, really. You people impress me with your thinking.

I really do not care what some rando on the Internet came up with by “doing their own research” unless they have receipts

I hope you’re aware this applies to you as well

I don’t want to take the time to prove you my research and shit. Maybe someone will take the time to do it, and props to them.

That’s how we got anti-vaxxers and flat earthers.

Blindly repeating the opinion of the majority on a same platform is also a great way to spread misinformation. I’m simply giving my opinion in hopes of creating doubt in people’s mind so that they fact check it and get the truth. Most people stating things aren’t giving out the sources like that, and asking for it each time the facts are different is a great way to prevent those people from speaking at all.

Barely anyone check, so if a thread is full of people saying the same thing, one will assume it’s the truth but it might not be

So we know this is a problem but fixing it isn’t important. Trans people in sports we don’t know is a problem, trying to “fix” it is creating other problems, so why is that more important to focus on?

You’re going off topic here

I believe that useful knowledge should be open and accessible to everyone for any reason (within reason of course, you might want to keep some things private), so I’m against your decision, but in the end you’re the owner of what you create so it’s your decision

You might answer “who asked?” and you would be right haha

Nevermind, here you are making the statement you justargued against.

I didn’t. At this point just throw this in ChatGPT or any good LLM so you can understand what I meant

If you mean through regulation, yes, partly

If you mean they hold most of it and thus have a total decision power, then I must disagree

That’s complete misinformation.

The point of blockchain is not to be traceable but not alterable or tamperable with unauthorized or false data. A distributed database that can’t easily be faked.

Some cryptocurrencies, like Monero, achieve high anonymity. While not perfect, good opsec will fix its flaws. Just like anything. That’s not the case with the majority of cryptocurrencies though, but saying anonymity is but an illusion is just false.

The website states

7-Zip for Linux: console version

It seems it is CLI only

Lemmy will also be crawled by AI so what’s the point now

doesn’t seem very GDPR friendly

I never realized 7zip was Windows only :-(

Thanks for sharing

but yea, anyways, native support for bigger files would be better. Not easy to split files on mobile

This

No worries, we can still swap conventional coins to XMR. Many smaller countries are not interested in reguling it, and we already know a few exchanges that don’t give a fuck
