I think "crypto people" are tired of things being a constant state of flux and just want governing bodies to make some kind of decisions. People really want to know what the rules are so they can make more informed decisions.

I'm not even sure why atheism has a name. It doesn't feel like a category that anyone would identify with. Lots of people are simply not religious which is more like being null in the religion category while atheism is like -1.

My point was questioning the definition of a modular computer. Can it be a modular computer if the computer is not modular?

Unless you want it to have a better computer. The computer doesn't seem modular to me. You can't quickly add additional or better memory. You can't replace the processor with a better one. The computer itself is a single enti

Maybe I am being over critical, but this is not what I imagine when I think of a modular computer. It's cool being able to swap in and out all kinds of peripherals like that in any position and orientation, but the computer itself does

Groupthink has decided that crypto is evil and killing the planet and any opinion to the contrary is wrongthink. This is the world we live in now.

Algorand, Avalanche, Solana, Cardano and Terra are all cheap and safe, but like that other guy said. I have no idea what kinds of crypto are listed on foreign exchanges. I'd imagine anything sufficiently popular though.

It's weird because it seems like you can point to various aspects of crypto and maybe identify them as being a pyramid scheme, but I don't feel like that definition holds up as it gets sufficiently large and self sustaining. Other

If your only goal is to send digital value across the planet why would anyone use Ethereum or Bitcoin? There are a ton of alternatives that cost fractions of a penny in transaction fees.

I don't think they are suggesting that the reason is because humanity has evolved past our sexual desires. People still want it. They just aren't doing it.

When more work is automated the same amount of work is completed with less humans doing it. Currently that means that normal people make less money, but it doesn't have to be that way. Wealth distribution could remain the same as more

It seems intentional. Possibly in order to continue the collection of money from people thinking they need people to keep investing. As soon as they release an actual game and development can come to an end then they can't profit much

A Retroid Pocket or an Anerbnic seem like more all-purpose devices for cheaper with a better form factor. I'll wait to see how people feel about it after the hype goes away.
