I don't care. I watched an interview with him and his foreign policy takes were so horrid he would be laughed out of the room if he said something like this in my country. Guess some people in the UK don't really give a crap about Ukraine.

I'll just use Firefox mobile with uBlock Origin then, literally anything is better than ads

Apparently the previous adaptation skipped and changed things.

Duder here defending a literal islamofascist monarchy that kills gay people and journalists, and an authoritarian one party state that uses Han ethnonationalism to replace native populations they conquered and puts minorities into concentration camps Edit: you can't even spell echo right lol

It's a weapon like any other. Maybe you're iffy on the name, but suicide drones are just another way to attack specific targets, like missiles but far more precise. What is evil about having a remotely controlled aircraft hit an enemy position as opposed to artillery, bombs or gunfire hitting enemy position?

That's a bit different, as in magnitudes more stupid (if true)

Ideally you would want laws to reflect morality. If drugs became legal, monero would no longer be useful for buying them, if that's what you're talking about.

You have no idea what that phrase means.

The "immutable" I'm talking about here is not in the sense of "immutable OS", but rather immutable like punched cards. You literally needed to punch another set of cards if your program contained a bug. You need to create another smart contract to replace your buggy program. Paying gas fees for it.

umber of crypto services (including Monero) that offer a middleman type service to allow you to spend XMR and have a business get fiat.

So you buy Monero with fiat, just to convert that Monero to fiat again, so the vendor can receive fiat? What for?

There are plenty of stable coins that are stable, such as USDC.

For now. All the stable coins that failed were stable until they weren't. What incentive is there to actually providing that kinda service, if you won't make money with it?

Ethereum exists to allow for programmatic transactions (ie: you pay a program to do something, and it'll get done)

NFTs. SAY THEIR NAME

And remember what a resounding success Wolf Game was? As a hobbyst programmer I can tell you there isn't an idea dumber that putting code into something immutable, that you have to destroy, create anew, rename the new thing you made to the old one, while paying for each step of the process, just so that you can fix a bug is a terrible idea.

It's pretty natural that what ended up being contained in those smart contracts was links to jpegs - it's much harder to mess that up than an actual interactive program.

I have too many people hammering me with comments to respond to all your points. I spend like an hour writing responses to you goobers, unless I see something really stupid I'm not responding any further.

So a quick round: 3&6 social engineering is far more common than simply hacking your account. So no, it's the opposite. Also, 6- completely false, why do you think they avoid using bank accounts?

5- I gave you an example where someone would know your identity - if you're using it in a non-anonymous context, like getting paid. It could also be the case when buying something, with your name/delivery address. Unless you go off chain, there is no point of setting up new accounts, as transactions can be traced and connected to the intermediate accounts.

4- Financial policy is decided by elected representatives. Corruption is an issue, but in crypto it's built-in.
