@gamingonlinux I invoke betteridges law on headlines: if it's a question it can be answered with "no". ...Why do they write this like like the opening for a public speech? I don't get who they think this kind of writing would appeal to and inspire to actually contact them except techbros who are *already* into blockchain.. @gamingonlinux@mastodon.socia lmao.l Bettridges's law of headlines says the presentation is gonna be like "well, no, BUT HERE is why we're SO important that sustainability doesn't matter!!!!!!!" or some other fucking garbage @tonytins @gamingonlinux Wasn't there this bullshit argument at some point that the huge energy-demand of blockchain tech would lead to innovations in energy-efficiency and would therefore, eventually, become net-carbon-neutral? @gamingonlinux This is the kind of thing that should be posted to the cryptosnark subreddit r/Buttcoin. @gamingonlinux how about wondering if blockchain technology can destroy the planet! @gamingonlinux buy carbon credits on the BC, play casino with them, lose your money, you lost the credits? they can't be offset anymore! We are doomed and it's your fault @gamingonlinux the only way blockchain can save the planet is if it's used to create a system of real democracy where people get to paricipate in every decision for the government, that way we can maybe stop relying on people who lick the oil industry's ass as long as it gives them short term cheap energy |
@gamingonlinux But it's Ronny Tome! Don't you want to speak with this totally real person?
