I have chocolate oat milk and it's really good

Or maybe he could go on Hot Ones

I would tie a really really long string to the lever and attach the string to a large bird and then scare it into flying away. Then I would eat some delicious Heinz Baked Beans

Playing tennis. There's local clubs that have social mixers where you play a few games and then switch courts and play with different people. There's USTA matches that pair you with people at your level. It's fun too

The extra jerks on Lemmy world create more content so the mean jerk time is greater

Tobacco is a vegetable

About 36 hours in Marine Corps Boot camp. I'm not sure how long everyone else stayed awake because at about 24 hours I failed the medical exam and was separated for discharge.

Captain America is always taller

It certainly was moist

Lack of sunshine, rainy cold weather

They're guard dogs

Looks like AI

I don't think that peasant economy was exploitative in the same way capitalism is. Peasants were largely farmers who grew food and provided the landowner with a percentage of their crop. They were integral to human survival and as far as I know the percentage taken by landowners was not comparable to the wealth extracted from workers today.

Alien diarrhea is the real cause of global warning!

And if you get scammed out of cash by another person how will the government step in to revert it? Theft happens every day. You are talking about banking, you are not talking about money. They are not the same thing.

That is also possible with blockchain, its partly enforced with KYC (know your customer) laws. Granted there isn't currently a great example that I know of where auditing and reversal is possible but that doesn't mean it's not technically possible.

Blockchain isn't inherently a scam, Bitcoin, Litecoin, etherium, monero and others are valid ledgers. They serve their intended purpose technically. You are specifically pointing out that there are investment scans in new shitcoins that are pumped up and dumped, or that never even really exist. You are correct that this doesn't exactly happen with fiat currencies but there are still nearly identical scams, like pyramid scams where people "invest" and they see their account value go up in USD or other fiat, and every month their account balance is inflated. Some people may be able to withdraw their money at first, or maybe nobody can ever withdraw anything.

Blockchain isn't inherently a scam, pretending to launch a coin or launching a coin and abandoning it is hardly different from existing scams that are settled in USD that sell land that doesn't exist or scammers that try to get you to invest in their business and then disappear with your money. You're characterizing all Blockchain currencies as scams, it's just not true. I spent my career working in IT, I look at Blockchain as a technical invention. There are ways to transact securely on Blockchain.

Now that's what I call shitposting!
