The Haber process and artificial fertilizers also helped grow the population that much

just legalize everything

If humanity can get through the next 100 years, there isn’t much that can kill us off. I’m hopeful.

If your concerned about the storage device ‘holding’ the crypto being lost or destroyed, you could simply memorize that 25-word code that most wallets have for signing back into the account. Your address and a passcode is all you need to send money. In the case of Monero it doesn’t have much volatility (compared to other currencies) and actually when trump was tweeting about creating a national crypto reserve, while Bitcoin rapidly fluctuated from 80k to 100 and back to 80k within a few days, Monero didn’t change much. If volatility is a major concern for you, then you could always look into stable coins, like those that are set to the value of USD or gold. I don’t use them and they work in fairly complex ways but volatility is what they are designed to combat.

Also outlawing crypto is like outlawing piracy, they cant enforce it and often they don’t even know about it happening. In the case of Bybit, they had billions in crypto and NK hackers after them, so ultra high security was a much larger priority for them than it is for a casual user of it who might only have a few Monero in their account.

If you have money in the bank it can be frozen or seized by the government, whereas crypto or cash they cant take as easily. My thinking with this is that if you have $500 kept in a crypto wallet whose password is stored in your memory, and there is no physical hardware with that code, then your money cant be taken away from you by any means.

I think a major problem with the stock market is the lack of long term planing. And we see that clearly with what’s happened to Boeing with their planes falling apart

they didn’t have to nuke civilians but using nukes was a good idea overall

I think its like sugar, too much and it’s horrible but in moderation its fine

yeah this just means more targeted ads for me I don’t want the world knowing what I ate for breakfast and I don’t want the world knowing that I gave my friend some money this wouldn’t free anyone of anything

they could hide a crypto miner in it, if you look at the numbers for some currencies this can actually make similar kinds of cash compared to ad revenue

And what happens when the state gets controlled by someone who doesn’t like what you have to say? You go homeless?

how about weapons manufacturers?

yeah but python is super slow

what would be the alternative? if someones super rich and commits a crime, and the punishment is just a fine, it wont really affect them

sure but you wouldn’t like being told who to have kids with just make gmo babies if you want superhumans, much faster and cheaper some dude in China did it already

I think it is, but it can balance out the theft imposed by the ultra wealthy its all about the nuance of the wording ngl

the govt takes ur money - this is theft monopolies and duopolies take ur money for basic goods and services - this is theft

much less than half

FDR had it less extreme than taxing anything with more than 5 million into the ground

no space rockets would ever be launched that means no satellite wifi for people in remote areas think abt the implications of this

just don’t use cloudflare if you dont like it and its not a single point, like they have tons of servers all over the planet
