Yes, the US is moving towards a Russian-style oligarchy with frightening speed.

Free speech doesn't allow you to say anything at all you know? Calling for the eradication of people with certain sexual preferences or skin color for example.

It really does feel like this is the end of the US as the dominating super power and world police. Who wants to buy weapons from the US when you won't get permission to use them to defend themselves? Who wants to make deals with the US

Russia and China are the big winners of course.

It reminds me of the blatant aim hacks that for example Flusha used in Counter Strike, yet people online still defend him.

I'm looking forward to Elon applying the same strategy to aviation. I wonder how many crashes it'll take for him to realize that this is a horrible engineering principle?

Bambu Labs is usually the recommended one but if the various Youtubers are correct then there are better alternatives today. I'm hesitant to recommend any because I've only used the VORON Trident but if you search around you'

The Voron Trident is also great I think and maybe even a better entry point as it's a little easier to build than the 2.4.

The reason people overpay is that it's impossible to foresee what fee will get you into the next block, so they overpay to not get stuck potentially for hours or more. Not requiring custodians is just one part, having to rely on third-

Oh, have Doge actually provided anything of substance of where the money is going?

Ah, allegedly my previous employer is still reeling from one especially motivated individual who ripped through the codebase. Yes, he was let loose without supervision or code review. Fun times.

Bitcoin average transaction fees is rarely under $1: https://ycharts.com/indicators/bitcoin_average_transaction_f... I think it's better to use another cryptocurrency like Monero than having to rely on a centraliz

Accepting everything that comes in an open source project is a sure way to get scope creep, ever more demanding users, and most likely burnout. Horrible advice I'd say.

Lightning just isn't a good option as you first have to pay the expensive Bitcoin fees just to be able to use it... (And hope that you'll find a route otherwise you'll have to do it again.)

Monero itself has very low fees. It's almost only Bitcoin that has the absurdly expensive fees.

Russia's economy is doing very badly and with time they'll lose as long as west continues to support Ukraine.

Oligarchs don't care about other people or even the country. They're so rich that they're isolated from any negative fallout (and they'll try to benefit from them too).

Taxes begs to differ. On that note, are you aware that they're planning to give themselves trillions in tax cuts?

The lack of proof for any of this "waste" is what's truly staggering. I actually agree that the democrats won't win an election any time soon... But that's because I believe the republicans will do away with free an

Are you aware that they're cutting agencies that make money?

And we're about to see the next step of the fascist takeover plan: Replace the judges who go against them.

You need to read up on what fascism is.

Communist Russia was replaced with a fascist Russia of another flavor. It's different but also very similar.

(Demonizing groups is a classic fascist tactic. They're spending money on bad group so therefore we're justified to do whatever.)

That's why they dumped it all into an LLM online?

Millions of dollars? Bah. Musk and Trump will make a lot more than that disappear into their own and the other oligarchs pockets.

Firstly, the debt grew more under Trump's previous term than under Biden[0]. If you want to put your head in the sand now, fine. Remember though that Trump made large tax cuts for the rich last time and they've said they'll d

Those numbers are drops in the bucket compared to the cuts they plan to give themselves. (Not to mention calling fighting HIV "for men who have sex with men"...) They're also cutting funding to agencies that make money !
