Crypto? no. NFTs? yeah pretty much.

Bored Apes have dropped around 3/4 of their value over the past year. They’re still worth over $60,000, but anyone that bought them, or any other NFT, over the past year has taken a massive hit.

The real question is whether NFT prices will cycle with bitcoin when crypto prices spike back up or not. Crypto has always had crazy peaks and dumps, and that pattern will probably continue, but I think NFTs are just going to go to zero. There’s no real reason for crypto, so speculating on a thing that has no value that’s based on a thing that has no value is real dumb.

For real guys, we need a better way to debate, propose and vote on de-federation.

They only reason I started using hotels again is because my fiance gets good deals and they usually upgrade us because she works in the industry 🙂

My problem is that people talk as if these are the only options.

There are other services, like VRBO, that do the same thing and usually have the same properties. AirBNB is garbage now, so just use an alternative that doesn’t have the same bad policies and high fees.

I have supported Discord with a nitro subscription for as long as I’ve had an account. It’s a terrific program and there’s no reason to expect premium features for nothing in return. The mentality that everything should be free is why we have so many fucking ad driven online business models and I’m over it. I pay for what I use if it’s a good service.

Yeah I’m having a hard time understanding this entire thread. Like… Is everyone here completely baked?

We touch our belts and then we wash our hands. Just like we touch our dicks AND THEN WE WASH OUR HANDS.

y’all are acting like I should be washing my dick too.

Ha yes.

I may or may not have kids, but this video will stick in my mind forever. If I do, my focus will be on creating that community to surround my kids with people that they can look up to for good role models and hope for the best :D

The beauty of the fediverse is that the last panel can’t happen.

We control our own instances. There’s no world where admins wouldn’t defederate from any Facebook attempt to barge in.

Maybe a few larger instances sell out, but users hold the power here now. If an admin betrays our trust, we’ll just make a new instance.

I can here to say this.

Chicken is all of these things. I food prep chicken dishes because I need the right amount of protein. It’s delicious and it’s one of the cheapest types of meat.

There was a video about this posted a bit ago. The speaker said basicly this same thing. After the age of 7, the environment that your kid is placed into, and the other people they are around, has for more influence on them that the parents have.

You do your best for the first 7 years, and then you do your best to find the right environment for them for the rest of their lives.

Tax payers already paid for the damn thing… We might as well get some use out of it.

And some massive lawsuits to handle.

I think there’s probably a reasonable explanation for this. The entire idea of Mastodon was built around getting away from companies like Meta. The admins arent going to just do a 180 on that.

It’s more likely that Meta wants to do a similar thing as Truth Social and they are doing some consultation work. It would be good money and I don’t blame them for taking it.
