As a dual citizen with Australia:

Vote, vote, vote. You are disrespecting all hard-fought wons by marginalized groups throughout 200+ years of history.

Literally, the first voters in the country were land owning white men.

People died. So you could have a say.

You are disrespecting the dead, and denying you civic duty, and your obligation in the social contract, by not voting.

People should be disgraced and shunned for not voting. I do not care what your political beliefs are, even if they are odious or fickle or contrarian or uninformed to me.

Show up and cast your ballot you otherwise absolute disrespectful coward.

Really the anime and chicks with dicks on this website. It’s enough to make one explode with sexual desire for a boy toy.

IMO, blockchain technology is good for one use case: illegal transactions.

I think all else can be achieved more efficiently by using a trusted third party write-only database, such as the ones available on AWS, and you’d also have the benefit of being able to go to court to seek relief. Some blockchain markets are basically reinventing banking systems and preexisting financial law - systems that have been built over centuries and have quite a bit of knowledge baked in.

I do like the shift to proof of stake from proof of work, but this tech is silly to me.

This is a sort of word salad / free association / confabulation that is typical of schizophrenia
