Do people expect the price to go down?
I’m confused


I think you should pay more attention. There were a bunch of people outside today. Republicans have been loosing every special election since Rump was swarn in again. People are working on how they can.


I did see that myself while writing.
Decided to go with it.
I mean, from the users point of view, nothing happened.


A Dr. providing compassionate euthanasia assistance.


Hubris is un-earned arrogance. Or arrogance from ignorance.
Some people are appropriately arrogant. It’s annoying as fuck, but you can’t argue with their results.


It’s a security feature. They don’t actually do anything. But nobody who’s not supposed to sit there knows that. When you touch both of them to see what they do, you’re instantly disintegrated.


People need to be okay paying for things online.
Communick is a paid fediverse provider.
I pay $30/year because I believe it’s worth paying for.
It makes sense for different servers to have different financing models. Ads I’m sure will have their place. But I imagine they won’t be popular.


I don’t know how long it’s been since I’ve use a default launcher.
Over 15years at least.
NO TAXES!?!
I never said anything close to no taxes! I said the opposite of no taxes!
I said the purpose of taxes isn’t what people think it is.
Governments don’t need to take money so they have money to spend.
That doesn’t remotely mean I don’t want taxes, or taxes aren’t necessary.
Taxes are absolutely necessary!
Taxes are the flip side of government spending.
The government spends into the economy with one hand, and taxes out of the economy with the other hand. Taxes are the real inflation control.
99% of that is correct. That is exactly what governments do. You understand exactly what I’m saying also.
The one part that’s wrong is tiny, but absolutely foundational to what I’m saying,
What governments do, doesn’t necessarily correlate with how things work. What they do, and have done for centuries, could be wrong.
I’m arguing that it is wrong. I’m saying that everyone has been running their economies and making monetary policy decisions based on wrong ideas, since fiat currencies were invented.


No. Live traffic data is too much server overhead for an un-monetized service.
Also, someone would have to be tracking where everyone is.
I guess if you want to define the term that way, you can.
Seems an odd choice of phrase.
If you export something, you don’t have it domestically any more.
But this doesn’t work that way.
Diluting is a better term. But diluting isn’t exporting.
But still, that’s nothing to do with what I was saying.
Which is why I’m not sure you understood what I was saying.
Yah… That’s econ 101 stuff I’m not and haven’t been confused about that. Not sure how that’s ‘exporting’ inflation.
I don’t understand what you’re trying to say.
I’m not sure you understand what I’m trying to say.
I don’t understand.
exporting it’s inflation globally
Do you mean inflation as increasing prices?
Or increasing money supply?
I’m not sure either matters realy, as the USD is the global currency. Foreign and domestic together, are a single economy from point of view of the USD.


But several devices can connect to the WiFi side.
Counts as multiple endpoint devices.


I think you actually need 3.
Otherwise there is no real “routing” just “in here, out there” and vice versa.
That’s the old economic model that treats a government like any other organization in the economy. It’s not.
Taxes aren’t loans. Banks aren’t governments. Completely different and uncomparable.
The difference is banks don’t control their own currency. That single difference changes everything.
I refuse to use any of these.
Instead I like to come up with my own new ones.
Like when someone comes back in right away after forgetting something.
I’m like: “Finally! Do you know how worried I’ve been?”
I’ve had one of these for years.
