Well, dumping a billion dollars a year on Memphis city schools did a bang up job fixing all problems, maybe it could use more code, too! Or blockchains!!!

No disagreement but it seems like the actual show has nothing to do with crypto at all, and it's only a "crypto" show because they're going to be selling NFT gifs ont he side.

So gently caress Dan Harmon is what you’re saying.

Also more people deleting their poo poo to try and make their NFTs worth something, forgetting it’s the internet and as soon as they announce they’re deleting it it’ll be downloaded and mirrored all over the place.

oh yes, gently caress dan harmon most assuredly. I just find it funny that once again a "Crypto [x]" is once again something entirely unrelated to crypto that has something stupid bolted on as an afterthough, and that all the press around is is like "groundbreaking" and "revolutionary". It's literally just NFT loot boxes for a show that will undoubtedly be broadcast and streaming.

everyone: that's stupid

Don't worry in a few years we'll work it out and the child labourers can dig it all back up.

lots of ewaste does get partially recycled actually, but it's often in back alley smelters which emit environmental lead. it's thought to be one of the major sources of lead poisoning globally

BEIJING (Reuters) -China has banned financial institutions and payment companies from providing services related to cryptocurrency transactions, and warned investors against speculative crypto trading.

Under the ban, such institutions, including banks and online payments channels, must not offer clients any service involving cryptocurrency, such as registration, trading, clearing and settlement, three industry bodies said in a joint statement on Tuesday.

"Recently, crypto currency prices have skyrocketed and plummeted, and speculative trading of cryptocurrency has rebounded, seriously infringing on the safety of people's property and disrupting the normal economic and financial order," they said in the statement.

Good for you! My brother’s sawmill has been working three shift days a few times a week (you have to shut down for maintenance). It may not be permanent or sustainable, but he’s paying top dollar for unskilled labor and logs and he’s still making sick net profits. I’ve been there a couple of times after being vaccinated to give the front-end loader a break, paid via direct deposit, and sent home. His brother-in-law got in trouble because of hiring illegal aliens off book (timber harvesting and sales) because his wages are higher than construction for unskilled laborers he got audited.
