> decentralised applications will be the new iPhone. What makes you think that? Genuinely curious. I can think of lots of reasons that the opposite might be true, so I’m curious as to what my blind spots may be.

I'm amazed at the number of people in this thread who are annoyed that someone would insert mention of a carbon capture initiative into an unrelated discussion. The author is clearly tired of answering the same question, as stated in t

The alternative you provide is still speciesist to a degree. I like the suggestion in a sibling comment to this one which avoids referring to any animals, though.

It’s okay if you don’t want to read about any form of assault. It sounds like what you experienced was traumatizing and it makes sense that you’d not only want to avoid it, but also why you’d be wary of anyone saying they can understand you

Yikes! I can't relate at all to your world view. That sounds stressful.

I think I feel similarly, to be honest. While I don't think I'd be less likely to buy something I wanted if an in-app purchase wasn't available, I've always been thankful when I realized I bought something or set up a su

What about nudists who want unsolicited nude pictures of their friends enjoying dinner together, but not unsolicited dick pics?

Why do you take it to mean that people who use a dating app are somewhat dumb? I can’t understand how you’d think that from Tinder misclassifying a photo

I get why this would be incredibly annoying to a nudist, but I can’t really see a path forward that works for nudists and non nudists in this context.

You must be fun at parties.

I don’t think anyone really cares about that kind of stuff, though. Like, there are loads of examples of similar things which no one (rightfully) bags an eye at. Like if I take a photograph of you out in the public and sell the photo for $1

You're right. Harvesting crabs is what I meant.

My take would be: That really sucks, and I hope it's not indicative of more alarming things to come for the environment. I hope the industries affected are able to stabilize. > you're more concerned about the fishermen losing t

Hopefully this will serve as a catalyst for helping to make people less dependent on farming animals as a way of life, both for the people who harvest/kill them, and the folks who choose to eat them. The thought that a billion crabs co

"Quiet quitting", because "healthy boundaries and balance" doesn't roll off the tongue quite as smoothly. Hustle culture is great for those with significant equity, but ultimately happiness comes from within, and wo

Yeah I know, I wasn’t saying we do live in that world. I’m continuing to say that _wanting_ to live in that world isn’t childish. Wanting to live in a world where we are all handed food, medicine, shelter, etc. for free seems like something

That's a logistical issue. The point of concern is that the person I was responding to said that merely wanting to live in a world where you are handed everything is childish. Why would wanting to be able to have access to everything y

I'm sorry you're experiencing this. You have every right to be fuming mad. You don't deserve to be treated any differently, and I'm really sorry that you are.
