I recently started as a graphic designer despite knowing absolutely nothing about it, so i am constantly searching how to do stuff in Adobe suite at work. Half the time Google’s AI can’t even keep “Cmnd” and “ctrl” straight, telling me to use’ “cmnd+shift+H” on Windows or “ctrl+shift+H” on Mac’. I don’t even know how it botches that, but it does it about 25% of the time.

Biden deported over twice as many people as Trump in his first term

What models are youseeing where things are 99% correct? Google’s search chat bot can’t even keep Windows vs Mac hotkey commands straight.

So then what’s the use of the program if it uses a bunch of energy to just make shit up?

Why would New York cops go after their own like that?

God what i would do for a beautiful French woman to call me a good bye while she puts a cigarette out on my chest

If i let my friend keep stolen property at my house, i am aiding a criminal. Why is Amazon exempt from consequences when someone they take a cut from a sale they allowed someone to make on their website?

Supposedly Musk and Grimes started dating because they are both way into Roko’s Basilisk. So of course Musk is trying to actively create such a threat.

My uncle’s outback looks like a video slot machine, and everything had to be done through the touchscreen. But to add insult to injury, the Subaru touchscreens are super slow and unresponsive, so they feel like they aren’t working.

But what else are they going to out on their 24 hour news channel?

'Why do we need a backup when we have a RAID?"

The accounting head when you try to explain that your backup systems are woefully insufficient.

Finally! A community to share my true feelings about Yinzers!

Oh joy. I already have to deal with printing crap people didn’t know how to make properly in Publisher or Canva. I’m super pumped to get emailed an excel file and asked if i can print off as a business card

And authorities are snatching up people using Monero to do crime.

I just know where to buy the drugs i want here in town, and then i offer cold hard cash that can’t be traced back to me, even if the dealer rats me out. Much safer and more secure than buying them online.

Yobs like this always come out the woodwork when Bitcoin hits an all time high, talking about how cryptocurrency isn’t all bad, but once you push them it’s the same tired old talking points. They don’t want to help you financially. They just want you to hold their bag while they cash out.

Edit: if you are familiar with the Alt-Right Playbook series by Innuendo Studios, Crypto Bros use the exact same strategies he points out. That’s why it shouldn’t surprise anyone that crypto firms were the largest donors to Republican campaigns this election season. Just something to think about as people keep espousing how crypto is gonna change the world…

I’d say you’re right for 99% of it, but there is 1% that’s genuinely useful.

I asked what that 1% of useful applications are and he gave a whole dog and pony show to avoid giving any examples. He said that there are times where cryptocurrency is better than your government’s currency (assuming you are in a stable country with a stable currency).

Bitcoin was developed by dudes upset by the 2008 financial crash who wanted to be the ones on top the next time everything imploded. Bitcoin is 100% useless at anything other than speculation.

A small bit of inflation encourages people to spend their money and keep the economy moving. Because if your currency is going to be worth more tomorrow than it is today, your incentive is to hoard it and mever soend a dime unless absolutely necessary.

Way more people have lost everything because where they keep their cryptocurrency went under than their bank freezing their accounts. Banks only close your account if they suspect you are doing highly illegal and fraudulent stuff. And of i forget my credentials, my bank has a process where i can access my money again after 5 minutes of KYC. If someone DOES fraudulently access my account without my authorization, the bank will fully restore my account and go after the fraudster.

I dont trust the US goverment any more than you do, but Uncle Sam isn’t interested in what his greenbacks are worth compared to other currencies. All he cares about is that i pay my taxes in USD.

You posted all that text, and still haven’t given an actual example of where cryptocurrency out performs USD for someone just going about their daily life.

And i have been using my bank account and cash to pay all my bills since i have had bills to pay. What’s the advantage of using something that is less convenient, less secure, and more resource intense than a normal checking account with direct deposit? You keep dodging the question on what use cases you think crypto currencies have an advantage over fiat currency.

So you don’t have an actual use cases then.

Please elaborate on what this magical 1% that you feel is useful and worth expending the same amount if energy as Australia
