- forgotmypw17 6y agoNo, I have become freegan, which means I have abandoned the currency system and live largely without touching it.
- hak8or 6y agoIs, erm, is this satire? If you are genuinely able to be genuinely self sufficient without interacting with currency while still bieng able to have power to go on a computer with an internet connection, I have to say, props to you. I just hope you do not get hit with a serious medical issue. Or have a fire and then get hit with a fire Marshall tearing you a new one over your unpaid property bieng not up to code.

- forgotmypw17 6y agoThank you for your well wishes. I do not own any property, up to code or not. I think overwork, unhappiness, and stress lead to many serious and preventable medical issues in today's world. Not satire.
- marmshallow 6y agoThis takes the cake for unexpected comment of the night. Could you explain where you live (location and housing situation) and how you feed yourself? I'm genuinely curious.
- forgotmypw17 6y agoI do not live in one place, I travel around. Sometimes I live outdoors, which I find comfortable with practice. I consider NYC my project's headquarters and it is where I stay majority of the time. I am sometimes housed by friends, family, and supporters of my software projects. For food, I primarily dumpster-dive.
- fidelramos 6y agoDo you find something ethically wrong with selling your services to someone who would pay for them? Or is it that you don't want anyone telling you what to do? I'm honestly curious about the reasons for becoming freegan.
- cerberusss 6y agoCan you point to a good intro on freeganism? Podcasts, YouTube channels, books, blogs?
