Is that really how it works? I feel like the whole ad based economy is a sham anyway, I wouldn’t mind if it collapsed and we funded websites through micropayments or gift economy
Firstly it hasn’t actually happened yet, I guess you fell for the misleading windowscentral headline. Secondly it’s not really kneecapped, but required them to rewrite, which the uBO author decided not to do (as a statement I guess). Other ad blockers however have made new MV3 compatible versions that are comparable to the MV2 ones, so it’s clearly possible. Also don’t forget there are other chromium browsers besides chrome, if you use Brave you don’t even need to install an ad blocker because it’s built in.
Oh :( pretty useless for driving then
Are you… raw dogging the internet without an ad blocker? You poor soul
Oh right I didn’t mean that I mean the PEDs that all top level athletes use
Fair point, you’re totally right sorry. This is a good start: https://youtu.be/W4CePWWN1Xs
That’s an ironic comment given that’s the same source the posted video uses too
OP is an idiot, could have easily continued the joke
What a hypocrite
In case anyone isn’t aware, all professional athletes at that level dope. Some countries just take it further than others
Would honestly be better than the current options
Rich is when you have little to no taxable income, and your wealth is mostly unrealised captial gains that you borrow against to fund your lifestyle, and you use various other strategies to offset whatever salary you do get with expenses or make it otherwise untaxable
The rich don’t have income, they take out loans against assets
All first world governments have some degree of corruption from money in politics, but don’t kid yourselves: USA is much worse than most
Hmm I don’t think that’s necessarily what OP is proposing. There are cryptos where transactions are anonymous.
Banks are already paying for servers to process and store information.
Yes
A few validators or collators (quite cheap for a private network) provided by several banks would cost a fraction of what they pay now
How? They’d be doing extra compute work for no reason (validating already valid transactions), and storing extra data (lots of hashes) for no reason, so it can only make infra costs more expensive. Plus the added complexity meaning you have to hire an extra team just to understand it.
Don’t mix blockchain with the speculative world built on top of it. That’s only an unfortunate use of the technology.
That speculative world as shitty as it is, is the only proven use case of the technology, if you take that away then blockchains are even less useful
I mean great if it gets there but in the meantime I’m not going to recommend it to anyone as a google maps replacement. It does look like a good maps.me replacement for hiking though!
