  • I mean, if one party pushes for use of blockchain, you’d just need to trust that specific system (algorithm, network…) and not explicitly the party pushing for it.

    I also wouldn’t call it power ‘waste’ since it does useful work - confirmation. It may be more inefficient compared to a centralized authority though. There are other ways of doing confirmations than proof-of-work as well, though each have their own drawbacks - just like a centralized system does,


  • Bad research based on subjective opinion? I dont see how anyone would see blockchain in itself as useless. It provides a verification method without the use of a centralized system. Are all peer-to-peer systems useless now? Its not to be used as a tool for everything. It will not fix everything. I’d be more interested in research of what happens when reactionary practices are used. Such as using blockchain just because it’s the hot new trend without thoroughly thinking about the consequences of such actions. blockchain = bad / blockchain = good is not good enough, each implementation needs to be studied independently and answers derived from that. Replace blockchain with AI and it’s the same.

    I mean communism is about a classless stateless society right? Workers unite, everyone is equal, from each according to his ability and all that… Where in the ideology does it state LGBT groups don’t fit this bill? I’m not using the not real commies excuse, I’m saying the fact they were communist and non inclusive of other members of the working class is contradictory.

    Communism discriminates class, nothing else.





  • Fuck it. I’ll take my media raw. I’m not gonna block something just because it offends me and if shit posters start taking over the place well thats just society baby! I prefer it that way to giving some central entity the power to ‘clean’ up everything how they see fit. Not gonna lock myself into an echo chamber if I can help it.

    To all the admins, thanks and take your time fixing things and if instances go offline for a while, thanks for giving me a social media break!
