Having unreasonable expectations would be okay, but people are calling it broken because a generation before this had this luxury but pulled the ladder behind them. We are supposed to progress forwards, not backwards.

Right, I specifically use DoH with Cloudflare on my phone. I'm talking about the "we don't need this" reply above, which is a suggestion for tinkerers, not a good recommendation for general population.

Netflix can literally implement fast.com to do the exact same operation as when streaming and then measure performance of the stream. Yes you could do a timer, but that would mean e.g. first 30s of all Netflix streams to be much faster and

That was very dismissive. I’m aware all of these would make a difference, but lots of US public and powerful interest groups are against all of them.

Absolutely not okay with it being the normal, if you have any ideas for solving the US guns problem, let me know.

Nitpick: doesn’t have to be equally - one party in a trade can gain more than the other, not necessarily proportionally to size (but both end up better off than not trading). The key is to sanction areas where the losses hurt the other side

Why is a browser the primary way a machine gets compromised?

Love minigolf, but regular golf takes up a ridiculous amount of resources per how many people can enjoy it. I wish it’d die.

Find someone who will lend you their tokens (if it’s on-chain, you will need collateral) and sell them. Later you can buy same amount of tokens from the market for a lower price - if price indeed goes down.

Sure, if more people who hold DAI thought it would than it wouldn’t, it would be a problem. At this point there are so many arbitrage bots and protocols on top that it won’t even budge to 0.95 though, because this incentive balance has prov
