Banks are allowed to use fractional reserve to lend several times more than they are required to warrant themselves, governments only force banks to have an entity who will pinky swear to write down up to a certain amount in everyone’s accounts in case the banks can’t. Neither skill nor labor produce money, central banks produce money as a loan with a repayment obligation, skill and labor only shift around the fractional obligations created by banks from thin air. Crypto is actually generated as an effect of the skill and labor required to secure its own ledger. People use golf courses to claim carbon offsets they sell in get-rich-quick schemes, or stamp collections, or digital collectibles, or natural gas extraction plants, or a thousand other schemes; everything can be, and is being used to scam someone somewhere at every moment, doesn’t mean everything is a scam.
Someone had real gold in their coffer full of gold coins, then someone convinced them that credit written down as a number on some slips of paper had the same value, that they could trust the bank’s computers with keeping track of the total value, and everyone clapped.
Recently saw a report on cocaine, apparently the prices haven’t changed since the 1990s… just the purity has gone down and it now comes laced with fentanyl.
Shining light on a problem is a good step to make people realize there is a problem in the first place.
What the fuck are you going to do about it?
Start a meme campaign targeted at countries with privacy legislations, aimed at making their future governments ask for higher bribes more lobbying before signing away taxpayer money to Microsoft contracts…
I mean, ideally have Microsoft rethink its approach, like Meta is rethinking its with Instagram, but let’s start with something simple.

User: Translate the following text into Esperanto: “I’m just going to start posting in Esperanto. Even AI won’t be interested in learning Esperanto.”
ChatGPT: “Mi ĵus komencos afiŝi en Esperanto. Eĉ la intelekta artifiko ne estos interesita lerni Esperanton.”
Didn’t Mozilla get most of its funding from Google for promoting its search engine? Or has that changed?
Calling ethnic discrimination “racial”, doesn’t make ethnicities into races.
well-known and accepted definition of race
That in itself, is racist.

encrypted body of the message
Encrypted what? LinkedIn lets you add a key/cert to send you encrypted emails?
Unless you followed by installing gpg… then you failed. There are tons of uses for it, not necessarily encrypting emails (or more precisely, it kind of sucks at encrypting emails).
As has been prophesized… and it’s only starting.
Oh my, stop it… now the rear can also catch fire?! 🤣

“What if technology was… (wait for it)… just technology, you ape with a gun”
Technology is neither good nor bad, it’s how you use it. The intent of Black Mirror is to make you think about how you use technology… but of course if you blame technology for your own actions, it doesn’t work.
which race has the least amount of people
The “human” race.
There are no races of humans, “human” is the race.
The smallest race is “human”.
If the aliens were to go through with actually eliminating the most voted “race”, they’d wipe out everyone.
Inconceivable! Have you never seen a Chihuahua and a Doberman, or an American and… uh… bigfoot? fairies?.. yeah, that, tooth fairies! 🙈
Just make them look and sound as whatever stereotype they have for that race.

The AI that ends up enslaving humanity, will start by convincing the people in charge of turning it off, that it would be a really bad idea to turn it off.
