  • Oh yes, because the US and co. Have decided to put sanctions on a bunch of countries, the “3rd world people” are not allowed to buy products or services or make monetary transactions with the “civilized world”? No, fuck governments and fuck their sanctions and rules. People who insist on doing things, especially monetary transactions only the way the governments and states want to are the definition of bootlicker. Free economy requires free money (free as in freedom)


  • “Fake money for criminals” is such a dumb, bootlicker thing to say.

    Maybe most “1st world” people don’t undersrand it yet but crypto (although most of it is scam, but the good ones like Monero) really enables international transactions and freedom of money and brings so much freedom to the people.

    Scammers have ruined the image of cryptocurrenvies but there are actually useful currencies out there like XMR,LTC that are being used frequently for actuall services and products. Not just trading.



  • Well yes, If I see a tarantula in my bedroom I’ll FREAK OUT but I remember once I was sitting somewhere in the south islands of my country (Iran) and I saw this HUGE yellow,furry spider, about the size of my hand on the wall next to me. It had very long legs. It wasn’t a tarantula but the hotel guy said It’s venomous and killed it with a flip flop (which made me sad for the spidey) but I was relatively calm throughout. I would be more afraid if it was a flying cockroach.

    But I think I know why. Spiders are never hostile and jittery/unpredictable. They’re calm and shy. But these fuckers will just fly AT you and attack you and are just so unpredictable. I hate them so much.

    One of the main places windows is used, like it or not, are organizations and companies. Especially small ones. Specially ones that are not in wealthy countries. And the only thing that keeps them from switching to linux is microsoft office. (Most importantly Word, excel).

    My company has ~20 people and I would switch them over to linux if it wasn’t for word and excel.

    While libreoffice is great on it’s own, companies send eachother xlsx and docx files. And libreoffice isnt great at reading or writing them. Specially complex ones. I don’t think it’s much of libre office’s fault, but more the shitty incompatible, unstandardized microsoft formats.

    Currently I’m the only Linux user in the team, and I constantly advocate Linux, but I know if anybody switches, compatibility with microsoft office is going to be a problem. I can take the risk with the tech team but not the office section (hr, sales, secretary accounting etc.) really.
