That's annoying. Pre-AVX computers are still perfectly suitable for many use cases. I'm writing this on one right now!

Replying on one as well. I wonder if this will push users to Firefox in the same way deprecating Manifest V2 is doing.

No. They claim $100 million savings from AI, but don't say where those savings actually come from

A penny wise, and a pound foolish

Seems like BCPL should get a mention too

Scamming is endemic in the crypto world, but it’s not inherently a scam. I don’t think it solves any real problems either though.

Gambling seems like the best comparison to me.

I think it's most akin to gambling / "investing" in gold.

Gold barely solves any real problems, but it has a pretty active market. People readily buy it. The price fluctuates quite a bit (nothing compared to crypto though).

The utility of gold vs BTC is kinda moot--they're both good at a few things. They're a lot like gambling for the way most people get involved.

Some shitcoins seem like scams, but it's not inherent in the tech, and I don't feel like BTC is a scam for any reason. Sure, it's not a tangible asset, but you know that going in.

Another grift from the Musk admin. The bullshit is piling up so high you need wings to stay above it

It’s not. But who will stop it?

Citation needed. The President has complete, unilateral classification and declassification authority. He can also grant or withdraw clearance to/from anyone, without any background checks.

Ah. So this is either the absolute height of hypocrisy, or the whole clearance and classification system was and is meaningless, just rigamarole. Here's some red tape to get rid of, easy.

Winning an US presidential election is the polar opposite of "easy".

The force is money.

This is the scam, the chaos is intentional
