  • The claims in this post say it effects games moving forward, no games bought previously. And that the game isn’t uninstalled or anything of the sort, it means if you haven’t connected to the Internet in 30 days you would have to connect to open the game. (Not sure what the reasoning would be, maybe they are trying to ensure people do updates, not sure). Someone else claimed above that it is fake all together, but I haven’t verified it.

    The real issue here for most people to me would be if a game is eventually removed from their network and whether or not they remove the check in requirement if the digital game is removed. (Aka would the game be lost forever because Sony stopped hosting it, even if you had a copy on an external drive).



  • Yeah my first thought was that those aren’t memes, they are the “guidance” I guess. The words are the message, the background sets the tone. Bad luck Brian isn’t the meme, he’s what sets the stage that lets you know the tone for the hook.

    If someone says: "Toenail needs cutting

    Kick a brick wall"

    Youd be like okay that’s excessive … but you put chaos wolf behind it and your like, I shouldve expected that



  • Believe it’s the point of the post. Voting for someone who supports pulling money from the impoverished and giving it to the ultra-rich… While being impoverished.

    The fact that 90% of the population isn’t voting against corporate Democrats and Republicans who support the current taxation and distribution of wealth that supports just 10% of the population to thrive and the rest to struggle is terrible. But they spend millions on advertising and billions on other media venues to push the agenda to protect the status quo.


  • You are regurgitatating what the government wanted you to say without even reading what I said. I don’t want it to be crypto. I want it to not be owned by local governments. You’ve been taught to say all of that, and none of it is required. If a currency is accepted by people because they know they can use it, a local government has no say. If 340 million Americans started accepting penguin print as currency tomorrow, the government would try to ban it, call it only used for buying drugs, not actually backed by anything, doesn’t really exist, and everything you have heard about crypto… Because it takes power away from the government. But in reality they couldn’t do anything but accept that penguin print is a currency, because you can trade it for goods and services. And if 200 nations across the world do it… Then if a local government fails, the amount a chicken costs on penguin print, doesn’t fluctuate much







  • Etherium is in question in the post, so never even close. I’m sure people have lost money, but if you bought at the absolute height and sold at the absolute low after it, you maybe could have lost half once. That’s max loss unless you bought every up and sold on every down. In 5 years you’d be down 16%. 1 year you’d be up 31%. It’s volatile but not as much as people make it out to be.

    The government and media have always had reason to put people against it and say it’s only used for drugs. Kind of like those fish men we bombed in boats without trial.


  • It doesn’t matter if it is fiat or not necessarily. But if I told you your money was going to be worth half tomorrow, then half again the next every day for the next 16 weeks… You would think shit… Maybe there is a better way to do this. That has happened to millions of people across several countries. They didn’t wake up one day and choose it, but poof gone. Your entire life turned to nothing because we are using currency that isn’t based on anything but a government that can collapse. Universal currencys not run by local governments could help prevent such.

    The thing is, large countries that don’t have these problems currently, are the ones with power to change that… and would never vote to change it, because it could help poorer countries create stability and grow over time, which makes them not so much less than the big countries who want to be able to take advantage of those countries when they wish for their advantage.



  • Oh yeah it’s a huge stretch. I just mean that the revolution tied to etherium was chopping out the massive environmental impacts compared to Bitcoin.

    Otherwise I look at it as the U.S. government owns the dollar, and it’s value is directly tied to what they say it is. If the U.S. government decided to double the amount of dollars in the world tomorrow and use the money in the way they want, everyone who owns said money just saw it’s value half, and only if they were on the in and in of who the federal government cared about would you possibly benefit or even make even.

    “I bought a bond for $100,000 with guaranteed 4.34% interest over 10 years”

    Then the government prints as much as it wants or makes decisions that could devalue the currency to its own benefit. Currency value drops by 10%, they pay you out 4.34% interest… And you lost money. Why, because the U.S. dollar lost money and much of the world hedges their bets on the U.S. staying normal… Which the U.S. Doesn’t look very normal right now.

    Hell if I became president and had support in Congress I would “print” 20 trillion dollars virtual of course put it in an account and build housing for everyone in the U.S. that doesn’t have it using 250k homes rotating them out every 30 years off the interest and money from that false account. It would put a shit ton of people to work, it would renovate all old homes deemed good enough to sustain people for the next 30 years and end homelessness while creating jobs or housing in areas which allows companies to expand to areas we otherwise weren’t using. Solar powe, fiber, whatever can be set up all around…

    Everyone else’s money drops in value, but all housing and rent costs just disappeared. Jobs are abundant and stress would drop for a lot of America. The debts we owe are in U.S. dollars, everyone now owes less, a crazy stupid slate to shake things up.

    Every other country/person that owned U.S. dollars, well they are just out of luck… they just lost a lot of value.

    Point is, who knows what kind of crazy shit people could do in government. If it collapsed in 1 country, not everyone who lives there should suffer because their only money is held together by that government. A universal currency is safer in that mindset.


  • I get why people say cryptocurrencys are a scam, but the whole proof of stake shit makes lot more sense if someone were trying to protect all of society from say mass inflation in places like Venezuela or something.

    The revolutionary w.e he was talking about had to be proof of stake, making it use 99.9% less power than things like Bitcoin.

    The alternative choice was always the same, control by the U.S. or China. Really not many other options.

    If people cared about the environment they wouldn’t use Bitcoin, if they cared about people, they wouldnt use the U.S. dollar and such. Every country in the world supports the U.S in doing so…

    We need better alternatives, etherium may not be it… but surely there has to be a better way to keep people from suddenly plunging into poverty when they don’t have control of their government.



  • The issue is that they are NOT doing this for healthcare costs, or any other reason other than telling others what they can do. If it was for healthcare costs, it would be everyone, so you can rule that out from jump. So why did they say 18 and under, because they weren’t sure if they could get a large enough following to say yes is they went to high, so divide and conquer. Find enough people who don’t care about the minority, and they can get it to pass. Why 18… Because they mostly have no say. If we relabeled it to non-whites can’t buy cigarettes, people would be like woah that’s racist, but the attempt would be the same, trying to control what others can or can’t do while not restricting enough of the majority to lose their votes.

    Under 18 can’t smoke is like saying under 30 can’t cat call people on the street, under 40 can’t slap their coworkers on the ass, under 50 can’t beat their children, and under 60 can’t rape minors.

    Either they are all bad/wrong for society… and should be banned for all, or they are manipulating votes as a plot to slide something else by under peoples noses while playing it up to look like a good guy
