People who think #ProofOfStake is better than #ProofOfWork haven't had to touch #Ethereum and espechally #Solana which require a shitton of #RAM, NVMe-#SSD|s and superfast, low latency networking!

In fact they make #Monero look like the biggest act of envoirmentalism since the ban of leaded car gasoline and CFCs!

• And yes this is no joke: There are BILLION DOLLAR COMPANIES using these #Shitcoins!

Seriously, this is also a problem, or did you guys really thought that the #AIbubble & #AIslop would stop #Shitcoin-Floods done by #TechBros and #FinanceBros ?

• These people are professionally "#HornyForMoney" and since #Banksters run out of real #Economy to #enshittify for #profit, they'll make up shit to make number go up!

#YouTube #ads are full of #scams and questionable financial advice by preying on #FinancialIlliterates that are #HornyForMoney.

• Bonus points for grifting with some alt-right exteme disinfo shitshow with a certified conspiracy theorist as listed speaker.

Seriously, with all those "Matrix" refernces I wished the Wachowski Sisters or Village Roadshow Pictures or WB were to sue grifters like that.

• No wounder all the #TechIlliterate #Normies get radicalized when they get bombarded with such bs!

Again: #AdBlocker are not just a necessity against #malvertising and #malware but an act of #SelfCare and #MutualDefense against #Disinformation campaigns incl. #hatespeech-based #propaganda.

The sad part is that some people think so in real life and they actually have influence on their followers and not see this as the #sarcasm & #comedy it's supposed to be.

“The only difference between the world of high finance and drug dealers are the commodities they deal...The mentality is the same.”

Read my ★★★★★ review of "Trading Experts' Beginner's Guide to the Stock Market" by Bennett Zamani, in which out of curiosity I pick up the highest rated book at Amazon on day trading and get a fascinating accidental look at Finance Bro culture as a free bonus. I love, LOVE how this review came out (it goes in some zany random directions), so if you only occasionally read my book reviews, make this one of them. https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5778762582

Today I went to check the post office box and had SIX prescreened credit offers from Citi waiting for me. That's one per day since my last visit.

Federal law allows you to opt-out of prescreened credit offers. When I opted out last time you could only do it for five years. Now you can opt out permanently if you jump through the stupid hoops of sending them a letter. Then they will scan the QR code to make it happen. *eye roll*

Go to https://www.optoutprescreen.com/ to stick it to the #financebros.

After facepalming on a daily basis for 3 years now, I had the sudden realization that I work for a bunch of Kendalls.
