Yeah!

Now hopefully they can enable HDR video playback within the next few years (bug open for 5 years at this point)

It’s not related to secure boot (I have that disabled) it’s related to nouveu drivers not supporting the 4090 (yet)

Well… Say that to my live USB I tried booting off of a machine with a very modern nVidia card. I had to create a new boot entry to disable nouveau and install nVidia proprietary graphics into a persistent partition.

I understand nVidia is shit, and doesn’t play nice with others. But my point is - it’s not always that easy. (I thought it would be! I lost many hours, and pulled out lots of hair!)

TradFi has a few wealthy individuals that control banking

You say PoS is an oligarchy, but it still offers anyone to participate in markets they previously were unable to. For example, providing liquidity and getting a cut of transaction fees - this is something TradFi has a monopoly on, but now everyday people can get a cut. You’re right that people with more money will have a bigger cut - but it’s still more equal than TradFi

You’re partially correct with some of these points.

Theatge amount of energy you mention is really only relevant to proof of work. You’ve mentioned proof of stake etc - so you should know that. The energy requirements for “proof” techniques such as PoS is negligible

Reversing transactions are ‘hard’/infesable - and so in a way they do help scammers - but I think it’s a false equivalence. It helps everyone. In my mind it’s like says “encryption helps terrorists”, that may be true, but it helps us all.

Regarding on chain transaction transparency, there are some chains that are like this (bitcoin), and there are some chains that are not (monero). There’s also ways to anonymise transactions through mixers etc if you do care about that. Although, I don’t know of anyone that gets their salary into their crypto wallet.

Overall, regulation is slow! But it’s getting there. I don’t think crpyto will solve all of.humans problems, but I might just help with some. It’s going to be interesting seeing how it all plays out - people thought it was going to be here and gone in a year, but it’s been over a decade now.

Playing audio to the sleeper while doing an ECG

Oh no, it gets better…

Imagine a hard day’s work, 16 hours of slogging while you’re awake

You get home, eat something and then head to bed. You put on your headband and select some setting on your phone and then drift off to sleep.

Now you are working your third job, while you sleep. Solving captchas. A/b testing app logo designs. Completing surveys on products you’ve bought while you’re awake.

Stuff that AI will never be able to do because the value is from being human. And yet is simple enough to do in your sleep.

You wake up with a few less cents in your overdraft and you’re ready to start a brand new day…

He do what what a snoop do
