Lol, that is all they should be.

Of course the US doesn't like it. Their country is getting all the benefit of US corporations basically running the internet without contributing to the societies they are leaching money from.

I would prefer my kids learn things that will be useful.

I'm not sure what the difference with this and NFTs are.

I would say people are more likely to drive to a restaurant or bar than a park so drinking alcohol in parks may lower drinking and driving. Public intoxication is still illegal.

It has some technical differences but it is basically the same. I think the Fediverse is too far ahead for it to ever catch on. I don't think enough people care about extreme censorship resistance.

I believe there are many instances were corporate involvement has added to open source. A lot of the Linux kernel is maintained by corporations.

The ideals of the Fediverse is an open network.

All of our news from one source.

THis was posted in 2021...

The page you posted is just using the SWIFT network. People who don't trade in USD generally don't use SWIFT. USD is still the dominant currency but I have seen numbers somewhere around 50% not 80%.

I find it odd people who want their social media decentralised but are disgusted when money is decentralised.

I thought this was an announcement they were moving to the Fediverse.

There will be many Americans who claim it is still 58% so it is still the reserve currency but the main point is the rate of change. And it is pretty quick.

We did the Twitter to Mastodon migration. Now we are doing the Reddit to Lemmy/kbin migration. When are we doing the YouTube to Peertube migration?

Do you always need a miniature to play D&D? I have never played before but a few neighbours are going to get a game together.

I assumed cell phones would be banned in classrooms. When I was in school any sight of a walkman would get it taken away!

Too bad there was no mention of decentralised alternates like Lemmy or kbin.

From simple Wikipedia: "Socialism is a political ideology that aims to make people equal. It generally focuses on equality of wealth (eg. similar wages, housing, education, healthcare), although since the 1960s, it has often focused on equality of power. It is normally considered left-wing, because it seeks to change society."

You seem to have a pretty narrow definition of socialism. I think most people would not use the term as narrow as you do no matter what quoted text you are about to post in response.
