Could've would've should've

So many things could be so much better.

Poverty could end tomorrow if we wanted to.

War could end tomorrow if we wanted to

Healthcare could be free if we wanted to

Same for schools and education in general

"If we wanted to"

Let me rephrase that: if either the top 1% would let us, or if the 99% would just stand up and take what's theirs, we could...

Bitcoin is a lot of things, it's not a scam. Some cryptocoins aren't scams either or didn't start as one.

A lot of crypto coins are scams

Bitcoin and any blockchain based payment system is not a viable alternative to payment processors at world scale. Unless power requirements per transaction go down literally exponentially, it will never be.

Having said all that: Bitcoin does work on the current limited scale, it works better and easier and faster han all payment processors, and most importantly: Bitcoin isn't a giant dick wanting to insert itself into every orifice of your body

Fuck Visa, fuck MasterCard, fuck American Express, fuck all of them you fucking psychopathic narcissistic assholes

Really?

The waterseeer was an outright scam that never would have worked because physics, yet collecting millions in funding. And that wasn't the first on either

This one is no difference, it's a scam.

Ooohhh another dehumidifier!

But no no no no, this time, THIS time, MIT is involved so it MUST be true, because MIT would never link it's mlname to yet another Sammy product, right?

OOOHH, And this device will even get water out of desert air, you say? Like like all the other water out of dry air products that were all such obvious scams that any 15yo could use highschool physics to explain it to you?.

Well call me sold, I'm all in in this one! By the way, I have this nice heat little bridge in my backyard, you'd LOVE it! Pay first, the. I'll show ya, promise!

And just to make it really really clear: no, I haven't read the article and yes, it's a scam, and how do I know? Basic physics and, you know, seeing these devices come by every 2-4 years like clockwork and every damn time some university is funding it or attaching their names to it for some reason. I don't even need to read the article at this point.

Here is a question: can universities please require that students have taken some basic physics courses before they allow them to start dumb scams like this?

Edit: come at me Lemmy, down vote all you want, I'm still right

Because they want to apply their rules to everyone, it's the entire point for religious assholes

Good luck with that in a zero tolerance environment like the US

Are you referring to China's shitty government that commits genocide or am I missing the joke?

Try every day

You seriously think trump will even remotely care about monthly protests? That is chuckle worthy for him at this moment.

He won't change until he starts to feel it

Make me upnif this protests nis in the tens of millions of participants and paralizes the country for a month

Anything less than that will do shit all

Try Vancouver, Canada.

We're always looking for good teachers here and left leaning works very well with the culture here
