Money has no intrinsic value, it's a dynamic relation between all other humans who would accept it. Even a gold bar will vary in what it can really buy based on the health of the society around you. And that's just transaction, which is not where wealth is. Land and physical property, and the ability to leverage their use is the mediator of wealth. The people without, will never ever be on a level playing field. How can you be born owing your life to infinite rent and interest and think you're on a level playing field ? You reach for this utopia, thinking this time you'll be the one collecting ? This time you can be the landlord without having to pay taxes. But at the end of the day, if the people around you are miserable, are you better off ?

And all of that is assuming it even would work as advertised, which it won't, nobody is waiting 10 minute to clear a payment.

This technology is a scam sold by the people trying to shit-up everything so that they can get their best pick out of the rubble.

Great way to stop that dying kid from also bankrupting the family.

Can you DRM a crawl ?

They want to be regulated so they can finally have their mote. Cutting out the states' power does mean they will only have to buy one group of politicians in Washington and those are some relatively cheap Hoes

#The Interdimensionalmeme Manifesto

An indictment of privatized power and the crypto-financial techno-cult "There is no escape. There is not another Earth to escape to."

#I. On Governance and the Role of Money

A functioning society must distinguish between governance and capital — between the stewardship of the public and the motives of profit. When these become one and the same, democracy dies not with a bang, but in the language of venture capital decks and algorithmic markets.

Currency is not simply a medium of exchange; it is a public trust, the circulatory system of a body politic. To surrender its issuance and control to private, unaccountable interests — be they corporations, anonymous developers, or speculative early adopters — is to strip society of one of its last remaining instruments of collective sovereignty.

Crypto is not a revolution. It is a coup d'état in slow motion.

#II. The False Gospel of Decentralization

Decentralization is the sacred chant of the blockchain faithful — but what is decentralized is not necessarily democratized. To spread control across nodes and servers does not spread justice, responsibility, or empathy.

Cryptocurrency is not neutral. Its very structure rewards the earliest, richest, most computationally resourced — and calls this “fairness.” It buries inequality in the code itself, hiding plutocracy under the banner of “consensus.”

The crypto evangelist, addicted to speculative gains, becomes a missionary of self-interest. The chain-letter economics of this new digital order create converts not by vision, but by the promise of unearned value and imagined escape. III. The Corporate-State Convergence

Yes, governments are compromised. They have been infiltrated by the dollar, bought by the lobbyist, colonized by the corporation. But the answer to corrupted governance is not to abolish governance — it is to reclaim it.

Crypto offers no resistance to this convergence. It accelerates it. It hands over power from flawed but at least nominally public institutions to venture-backed technocrats, data merchants, and ideological profiteers.

To abandon the state without building democratic alternatives is not liberation, it is abdication.

#IV. The MLM of the Modern Age

Like all pyramid schemes, the promise of crypto lies not in what it is, but in what it might become — if others believe, if others buy in, if others come after you.

The blockchain isn't a chain of freedom. It is a ledger of dreams sold and lives ruined, a speculative suicide pact dressed in libertarian robes. It is the digital cousin of the payday loan, the unregulated casino at the end of capitalism.

And yet the faithful continue to preach, because their salvation depends on your belief. The higher the adoption, the higher the price. The higher the price, the closer they are to an exit.

#V. There Is No Outside

The dream of "opting out", of escaping fiat, taxes, nations, systems, is not just naive, it is delusional. There is no “outside” to the world we have made. The consequences of economic systems ripple globally, shaping policy, resource extraction, and ecological collapse alike.

Those who seek exile in crypto-fortresses or digital bunkers are not building freedom. They are seceding from solidarity, retreating into nihilistic techno-feudalism.

There is no Earth 2.0. There is no safe haven from collapse when collapse is a planetary system failure.

#VI. The Call

We do not reject innovation. We reject the perversion of innovation into a religion of capital accumulation and anti-social escape.

We do not romanticize the state. We demand a democratized public, a radically transparent and accountable governance, shielded from the ever-expanding reach of the market.

We do not reject decentralization. We reject decentralized despotism, where opaque code replaces public law, and anonymous whales replace accountable representatives.

We do not fear the future. We fear a future owned, not governed, by the architects of financial abstraction and speculative cruelty.

We do not need new currencies. We need new values.

"The people who have infected the body-politic with their narcissistic nihilism, their hopeless, futureless nightmare of a life… have been allowed to fester in the name of freedom."

Let the festering end.

Let us build systems worthy of the future, not just profitable in the present.

Let us not be fooled again.

The government prints currency, it is a tool to it. Of course the slimeball politicians are just as dollar-sign obssessed as all of the "business community" for they have become one and the same as money has been allowed to be converted directly into political power.

But "money" should hold NO influence whatsoever a properly functioning government. Business should never be allowed to infiltrate it's putrid tentacles into governance because it will ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS do the same thing, change the order of things to empower itself. If allowed it will suck the bone marrow right out of every newborn infant.

If you think crypto currency, which is the handing over of the money printers to unaccountable private powers and their never-ending shenanigans, is any kind of opportunity, then you have been fooled.

But let me tell you how, since you are obviously been turned into one of their proselytizers.

Like any addict, you have been allowed a little sip of unearned value from the speculative value. And now your entire moral system has been corrupted, like the employee of a multi-level marketing scam, into seeking more converts, to keep the marginal price pressure on "your precious" as high as possible.

Getting others to sink their life's savings into the crypto currency anti-social disease is for you a way to grow your value. But if you are here, doing the work of the rank-and-file, you should be aware of what happens to MLM victims when then are not at the top of the pyramid.

Increasing the bitcoin value, effectively hands over more and more unearned economic power to speculative early adopters. Who have invested into a technology with no merits and a contagious mental illness with the false promise of escaping the system.

There is no escape, there is not another Earth to escape to. The power of money under a private money regime, just means that it will care even less about you, as an individual than before, which is probably hard to even imagine.

The people most pushing behind crypto, are the naive libertarians, the one they think they can make their big money and escape to their bunkers with it scott free. They are the people that have been breaking society on purpose, creating crises so they can sell us the cure and be our saviours. They are the people who have infected the body-politic with their narcissistic nihilism, their hopeless, futureless nightmare of a life and have been allowed to fester in the name of freedom.

"Private governance cannot be any worse than current governance" This has been the prophecy they have worked all my life to come about. It is a religious belief that nothing can be done unless it is profitable and done for profit. This kind of diseased thinking will make a few people rich beyond measure while leaving the rest of humanity destitute and then outright dead.

So do keep spreading your "good news" far and wide if you like but know that what you are spreading is just the latest of the pestilences of the modern era. Palantir thanks you for your service.

All palantir participants are the enemy. And they're not nearly scared enough.

[–] interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 days ago (8 children)

Of course it can be worse, are you so bereft of imagination, so drowned in ideology that you cannot imagine another megalomaniac sniffs his own delusions of gradeur and ride them straight to hell ?

How many more examples from history does there need to be before it will get in the thick skulls of the dollar-sign-eyes that this always ends in catastrophe ?

We don't have too many tries left before actual stable governance crumbles for good and we have a couple dozen centuries of unchecked warlordism.

"Private governance cannot be any worse than current governance"

You have no imagination

"maybe we will get less mass murder known as war."

You are a fool

You'd have to invent new humans first, we are very bad at getting liquid in our lungs

[–] interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 days ago (10 children)

No, it isn't arbitrary.

Cryptographic money people seek to privatize governance.

A return to serfdom and kingdoms.

This is not the be allowed.

People who try to dismantle and corner a foundation of society so they can keep it for themselves and beyond to reach of the consensus, are thieves and should be treated as such.

 

Hi,

I find bookmarks tedious to use and largely a huge waste of time. I have 10s of thousands of bookmarks and I never ever open any of them except the 10 or so on my bookmarks toolbar

Will bookmark ever improve, they seem to be solidly stuck in their functionality from 1996 and stagnant. Probably because nobody uses them there is no point in improving something no one uses.

So anyway, I thought bookmarks could be potentially useful if you could search text inside them. Except of course being 1996's finest technology, they never considered possible to save the text of a website as metadata of the bookmarks and they are built on this really naive idea that the bookmark will still work in the future, how pure in innocent of them.

So anyway, I'd like to just ask my locally running offline copy of deepseek 621B to search inside my bookmarks for a specific text and look at all images, video and audio transcript for a certain topic. I know this is a lot to ask of the outdated and obsolete bookmark technology so I'm curious if maybe there's someone that thought of improving that functionality or if I'm the first one to ever realize that ?

 

I tried creating a single bookmark with search word But I can't get this to work. How can I bypass security to make it work ? Do I really have to enable debug mode ? Is it possible to switch debug mode without having to restart the browser (and discard all tabs)

Here is the code I tried

javascript:(async()=>{let t="S",n="GPT Classic",u="https://chatgpt.com/g/g-YyyyMT9XH-chatgpt-classic/?q=%25s",k="cc",g=(await PlacesUtils.bookmarks.search({parentGuid:PlacesUtils.bookmarks.toolbarGuid,title:t}))[0]?.guid||(await PlacesUtils.bookmarks.insert({parentGuid:PlacesUtils.bookmarks.toolbarGuid,title:t,type:PlacesUtils.bookmarks.TYPE_FOLDER})).guid;await PlacesUtils.bookmarks.insert({parentGuid:g,title:n,url:u}),await PlacesUtils.keywords.insert({keyword:k,url:u}),alert(`Bookmark "${n}" added to folder "${t}" with keyword "${k}"!`)})();

 

I thought this would be hard, but turns out the following oneliner does it, with maybe no sideeffects ?

echo 'docker() { [ "$1" = "sh" ] && docker exec -it "$2" sh || command docker "$@"; }' >> ~/.bashrc && source ~/.bashrc

This creates a bash alias for "docker ps" , every other command should run as normal

Now I just need to remember to run this one liner on every single computer I use in the future...

 

This should be easy, right ?

 

I want code to right click context menu on a file and if it is a .mp4, then convert that to a .mp3 of the same name

also include an option to play faster by +25 +33 +50 or slower by -25 -33 -50 (in a sub menu)

I understand this is different depending on your system, so answer how to do it for the people who use the same system as you

 

There I said it !

 

Hi,

I am setting up a lemmy instance for a small private group. They are not very technically literate and I don't want to have to explain the concept of joining the right communities as part of the onboarding process.

So I want to pre-load all the right default communities to each user when they create an account. Is there a way to accomplish this ?

thanks !

 

Hi,

Just booted up lemmy-ui instance for the first time

It asks for "Set Up Site Administrator"

But as you can see when I press signup, nothing really happens

If I try to login with that account it says "Toastify is awesome!"

When I check the logs I get

Not sure where to go from there ?!

Is there an addon to defeat this right-click disable method ?

thanks !

 

Do I have to convert my mp3 file to mp4 by adding blackout video track using handbrake ?

 

Expressing your needs, especially when related to health, can be delicate. Here’s a way to frame it that focuses on your health concerns and care, while also being considerate of the relationship:

"Hey, I’ve been thinking a lot about my health, and I recently read that regular intimate activity, around 21 times a month, could help lower the risk of prostate cancer. I know this might sound like a specific number, but it's something I’d like to work towards for my well-being.

I’d love for us to share more closeness not just for this reason but also because I feel it deepens our connection. I want to be open and honest with you about my needs, but I also want to make sure you're comfortable and that we find a balance that works for both of us.

How do you feel about this?"

 

I'm just so annoyed of fighting this all the time.

If I can't figure this out I'm going to disable all https redirecting and all certificate errors off so I can have some peace

EDIT: I do not wish to manage certificates I do not want to setup private key infrastructure I don't want to use real internet domain names I don't want to manually install certificates into browsers after fishing them out of my ephemeral virtual machines

I just want to, add exception for *.lan for https auto redirect and auto-accept self-signed certificates as valid. This is not much to ask.
