đ§šđ¨ BREAKING: Heroic cleaner embarks on epic quest to save Britain from its own junk, because apparently the real problem isn't the housing crisis or climate change, but rather your Aunt Edna's porcelain cat collection. Spoiler alert: #Hoarding is now officially a national security threat. đ

@F3715H @JuxGD I second this one.
1. Obviously #Monero peaked recently because everyone who can is dropping #USD for #XMR and is #GTFO'ing the #USA due to #Trump...
2.I've seen "#ProofOfStake" #Shitcoins like #Ethereum and #Solana with setups that are way more wasteful, expensive and #hoarding of hardware like #RAM and #SSDs [the latter one being basically destroyed due to extreme #IOPS].
3.If you have no problem with #AMEX, #VISA, #MasterCard š (and espechally #PayPal!)² ³, then you shouldn't have a problem with Monero either!
Yes it is a #cryptocurrency, but it's the "least worst" when it comes to #privacy, #centralization and some study seem to hint that Monero and the DNMs that use it actually reduce #StreetCrime and #Violence as they allow #NonviolentDrugOffenders [aka. #VictimlessCrimes] to be facilitated safer and in a trustless envoirment.
The Problems associated with #Monero are not due to the fault of Monero. It's what people do towards other people. Whether they do it for XMR, #Dollar, #Euro, or whatever doesn't make it better or worse than whether someone threatens a person with a knife or a rifle: Both are equally bad in the eyes of the law and society for all the righr reasons!
Also Monero per it's very design CANNOT be abused for "#SmartContracts", #NFTs and associated #malware - in fact the #developers of Monero removed any such ability by deprecating and disabling the tx_extra feature.

đđ A riveting tale from #Quanta on why there's no magical, one-size-fits-all #storage solution, because who needs simplicity when you can have chaos? đ Turns out, shoving random bits into #cloud corners like a #digital hoarder is a totally viable strategyâjust ask the experts! đ¤â¨

I always thought that #JRRTolkien's #Smaug was a metaphor for the #IndustrialAge and #WealthHoarding. It seems I'm not alone! #Tolkien was actually an #environmentalist and possibly a #socialist (though he describes himself as an #anarchist). Does that mean #LOTR will be banned by #Fascistic #Capitalists? Hmmmm...
#Dragonomics: Smaug and #ClimateChange
Posted on February 22, 2019 by Richard Fahey
Excerpt: "Today, we talk about dragons. I refer specifically to the greedy, northern (often fire-breathing) variety as described in Beowulf and featured in Tolkienâs #Hobbit, and I will consider how these monsters present #EnvironmentalCatastrophe as a direct result of #hoarding and #greed.
"My discussion of dragons and climate change continues my recent series of blogs interested in placing medieval literature (and in this case also modern medievalism) in conversation with current crises. This blog develops an earlier argument made in a paper at a 'Tolkien in Vermont' conference (2014), titled 'Dragonomics: Smaug and #Pollution on Middle-Earth,' in which I argue that pollution in Tolkienâs Hobbit is linked to both the literal destruction by the dragon, and the rampant greed that motivates Smaug and ultimately initiates the plunder and violence at the Battle of Five Armies."

RAM prices are up 171%, outpacing gold. Sam Altman locked up 40% of global memory supply for AI. Micron just exited the consumer market. Now we get to pay more for electronics with less storage and memory.

THEY ALL LAUGHED! As I was #hoarding old sticks of #RAM and buying an old PS3.
WELL WHO'S LAUGHING NOW!? Not me obviously, because there's so much dust in these old machines that I'd start coughing if I did.

If I toss my old Visual C++ book, I could free up space for two or three more novels in the bookcase. After all, itâs not like I plan to do any more programming. That chapter has closed. Itâs time to let those things goâcompletely.
I know the impulse to hang on âjust in case.â But when we donât release the unused, it accumulates. Slowly, quietly, until weâre buried in stuff. And then we become⌠hoarders.
Thatâs where I am nowâor at least, thatâs how it feels. We have a lot of things. Over the years, I built storage into our life to bring order to the chaos. But storage is a trickster: if you build it, you fill it. I told my wife I wanted to rent a dumpster and just start tossing things in. I didnât get a concurrence.
There are boxes we never unpacked after moving hereâover twenty years ago. They sit like sealed time capsules in the back of my little work garage. Once, I resolved to do something about it. I grabbed a box, determined to haul it off to Goodwill. But when I opened it, I found my Calvin and Hobbes collectionâand just like that, the wind left my sails.
Tossing technical manuals is one thing. But Calvin and Hobbes? Thatâs sacred. Honestly, those books should be classified as academic textsâphilosophy in comic form.
And even now, as I type this meditation on letting go, I glance toward Benâs bed, still sitting where it has for over sixteen years. Those who follow my blog know what that means.

It's not simply a #NIMBY driven supply problem. The supply problem & broader economic issues make a feedback loop. Profit margins on building large expensive homes are higher than small affordable homes. There are "investors" driving prices up in bidding wars, too. #inequality #hoarding
Plastic injection replaced sustaonable means and is grown unaffordable.
The experts and tools have been decimated by neglect.
My grandparents sold the business and it's manufacturing tools.
My uncles sold the union.
Of course I have nothing left but memes.
