brain spiders is the right wing counterpart of brain worms

it's an important distinction, like dolls vs action figures.

When you hear yet another gamer whining “GPUs are too expensive! Crypto should die in flames!” (self.CryptoCurrency) 
submitted 10 hours ago by themetalfriend 

There are two types of people who can't afford a new GPU: 

People who blame others for their own financial situation: "I can't buy a new GPU because those crypto f#ckers made them too expensive" 

People who accept the fact that their financial situation is the consequence of their own actions. They understand that they can’t afford a new GPU because they’re too poor, not because GPUs are too expensive. Instead of blaming others, such people are trying to improve themselves to make better financial and life decisions in the future. 

The first type are people with a victim mentality, socialists and other losers. There is a good chance that they’ll never escape poverty (and it's their own fault). They don’t deserve any respect. 

If you’re a gamer, strive to be the second type.

Well I think using highly specialized GPU's to hash out random numbers consuming as much electricity as ireland is stupid.

themetalfriend [S] -5 points 14 hours ago
    consuming as much electricity as ireland is stupid
A lot of things consume at least as much electricity as Ireland. For example, all the videocards used for gaming.
The difference is, PoW cryptocurrencies are useful, and there is nothing wrong about using a lot of electricity for useful things.

LegioVIFerrata 5 points 11 hours ago
    PoW cryptocurrencies are useful
As useful as the entire economic output of Ireland? I think we're overpaying in electricity quite a bit.

themetalfriend [S] 1 point 11 hours ago
    As useful as the entire economic output of Ireland?
Vastly more useful.
If the entire Ireland suddenly disappears, and everybody forgets about it, the world will recover in a couple of days.
If all cryptocurrencies suddenly disappear, and everybody forgets about them, it will be an irreparable damage to the future of humanity.

Yes, I'm not very intelligent. Especially if we consider the vast space of all possible intelligences, of which the human intelligence is but a miniscule speck of dust. Not sure how it's related to the topic tho.

Once you've contracted gerard, you can't get rid of it. Much like herpes, there's no cure although it's largely harmless, with the most negative impact being embarrassment around potential romantic partners.
