Luckily for anyone who isn’t interested it’s opt-in. Don’t want it? Don’t use it.
I had no idea intra-uterine devices were so dangerous.
They are certainly more common than IEDs in the US.
Yes I’m sure the 7-11 cashier would love for me to try this.
I said generally. Your parents who get paid in local currency for their job are not trading in foreign currencies. The fact that rich people can find ways to squeeze more money out of just about anything isn’t a win for cryptocurrencies.
People generally don’t trade currencies as commodities or treat them as investments. When the same people promising crypto is totally a currency actually start treating it like a stable currency to exchange for goods and services and not an investment or commodity to be traded, I might revisit it. For now, the evangelists refuse to walk the walk.
Hard disagree here, I literally cannot access a cryptocurrency without power but I can absolutely pay cash to buy some water during a power outage.
The only two countries that accept bitcoin as a legal tender are noted powerhouses El Salvador and the Central African Republic… not exactly world leaders.
Tangible items can have utility in the real world, where cryptocurrencies can never be anything more than numbers on a display.
Gold can be used in electronics, and I get that people are mad that currencies are just something we all mutually agree have value, but generally speaking powerful governments back those up. Cryptocurrency is backed up by people promising it’s totally gonna be a real currency any second now. Please ignore that crypto can wildly fluctuate in value which generally a horrible thing for a currency to do.
Crypto is hated because it’s an MLM for terminally online people.
It gains value because people want it and people want it because it gains value is both a perfect description of cryptocurrency and scams.
Only shocking thing here is that it took them this long to bother to do this.
Do you consider free speech to be an inalienable right for an entity to collect any data about you that they would like, regardless of whether you know they’re collecting that specific data?
From China’s perspective, is Meta not doing the exact same thing on behalf of the US government?
A great point, Iraq specifically has very good reasons to hate Iran. Combined with their shit stirring within their neighbors borders, and poking the US which of course just invites American military equipment to hang around the area, they are a pretty not great country to have as a neighbor.
Iran’s state religion is a different sect of Islam that stands alone as the only country that follows that branch of Islam. The two branches mutually believe the other branch is turbo-heretics that need to die. Tends to make relations between Iran and other countries nearby a bit tense…
If conservatives had any media literacy, they wouldn’t be conservatives anymore.
TRUMP clearly thinks that he’s got the “one weird trick to get out of any court proceedings, judges hate him!” and its to be as much of an asshole as possible to the judge and then complain that they can’t possibly be impartial because he was such an asshole to them.
That’s really cool of Lionel to do that for everyone.
Even “liberal” media in the US loves Trump and will print anything that might further the close race narrative, regardless of veracity.
Trump gets eyeballs on news, which directly leads to ad revenue. US media is addicted to Trump as a means of selling ad space and would gladly let the country burn down for a few extra ad sales.
