    Nowak got a reaction from Chrisokane in LGBT community   
    The entire concept of gender not being a binary thing or that sex and gender aren't the same thing isn't a new thing. Many indigenous cultures around the world recognized the existence of three or more genders, including many Native American cultures here in the US, as well as in other places like India.
     
    A lot of that got destroyed when the Christians and Catholics came in and pushed what their god said is true onto people not wanting to be assimilated into this foreign belief system, but a lot of it also survived.

    Nowak got a reaction from WkdPaul in COVID-19 - READ THE RULES BEFORE REPLYING   
    What is with Canada and these long, drawn-out periods between doses? Don't Pfizer and Moderna specifically recommend not doing this, instead giving a two week period between shots?

    People "worried" about being microchipped by the COVID vaccine while posting that on their phone with a GPS and broadcasting its position to a radio tower 24/7 to a social media network that knows more about them than the federal government after driving to a coffee shop with their car with a serial number that they registered with the state government so they can buy a latte with a debit card attached to a bank account they opened with their photo ID and social security number is the funniest thing. If the government wanted to track you then they already have everything at their disposal to do so, no fake vaccine needed.

    Keychron's keyboards start at $69 for a basic white backlight, Gateron switches and plastic case. They're pretty decent for that money.

    Did Linus not make a video recently where mentioned the negative impacts mining has on the environment?

    Nowak got a reaction from yuh25 in Ethereum set to make GPU mining obsolete, miners aren't happy and plan protests   
    Will it be doing this for real this time? Ethereum has been "moving to proof of stake soon!" for almost as long as it's existed...

    Anyway, here's the blockchain in action.
     
     
    Also, I feel so bad for all the artists who are scrambling to protect their art from theft by blocking accounts involved in NFT piracy when they could be using that time to practice or work on owed art. Fuck the blockchain.

    Y'know, there's a pretty good alternative to NFTs and cryptoart out there already. It's called "just commission the artist."
     
    NFTs aren't a necessity, especially with the complete lack of regulatory oversight and significant carbon impact. Pay the artists directly instead of throwing around Monopoly money.

    Ah yes, victim blaming. They should have done X to prevent Y from happening to them. Excellent, great to know.

    Funny... Considering that's basically what is happening to artists right now with NFT on Twitter.
    It doesn't protect them from art theft, at all. If anything, this adds more work to their plate for them to go around making sure no one is profiting off their hard work.
    This whole NFT thing is on unsteady legal ground at best in its current form.
