Exactly. While this guy sits in his high tower and consumes energy using his air conditioning (WASTE), owns a refrigerator to keep food (WASTE), and looks down on those working more hours. He sits and shitposts on HN using, gasp... electrical WASTE from his useless WASTE device. Breathing up oxygen(WASTE). You can see that anyone opposing virtuous view is a total exploitative threat actor. /s
Oh, you've taken on less work hours to enjoy your life? Maybe others are able to view that as a waste. Quit stretching things so much that you paint __everyone else__ as a threat or enemy.
- bostonsre 5y agoSo much hostility... my simple comment is shit posting but yours isn't? I didn't say I didn't waste energy, I didn't say I was an angel, I was merely pointing out the fact that two wrongs don't make a right. "It's ok for bitcoin to waste electricity because people flying internationally waste electricity too" is a pretty weak argument. Call it waste or whatever else you want to, the fact is, crypto currency uses a ton of electricity that wouldn't be used otherwise. Sure you can go on weird tangents if you want but it is a simple fact that seems silly to ignore.
