This leads to the total collapse of global society

Because everyone knows how to and wants to modify batteries.

Maybe we shouldn’t allow it to be legal to put DRM on fuel?

So after the battery is no longer attached to the orginial bike it no longer works. The government isn’t going to properly regulate this practice if it starts and battery waste will increase.

Lmao yeah sure, conpared to now, where the government sets taxes and you pay it already? That doesn’t sound much different tbh

This is literal cope propaganda for the rich.

We are hundreds of years from AI that will meaningfully replace the jobs of the poor. Or meaningfully protect the rich.

No person alive today will be able to live without depending on other humans.

Rich bros print the crypto currency with no accountability.

Governments print real money.

FTFY

Currency, the term you are looking for is currency.

The way you exchange value for goods and services without needlessly attaching an energy wasting puzzel game to it is to not do it!

Just have physical or digital currency in USD or some other real world currency that doesn’t require a blockchain and doesn’t have its amount artificially capped by processing power. It’s a dumb idea made by con men to take money from people.

This is an established cool community ran resource for all kinds of schematics, repairs, and breakdowns of all kinds of devices for manufacturers that suck at telling you how to fix their stuff.

You should make yourself do things that make you uncomfortable because it’s good for you.

You’re expected to keep your head in the sand, work for a fraction of the value of your labor until you die, too late for you to realize your life has been stolen.

People who want to know what the fuck is happening around them have to read the news and learn about the world in order to do that.

Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives

How much time do you willingly spend in public interacting with others?

There was a lot more of it happening before society required everyone to have personal transportation.

I’m an introvert so I am at home, work, or errands. I probably would talk to a lot more strangers if I had to use public transport and it wasn’t so expensive to do anything fun in public.

Generally if there is a massive trend in society then only systemic changes will change that trend.

Sure it would be nice if every incel worked out, microdosed mushrooms and became more selfless people, but that’s not something that will happen.

One thing that would fix a lot of this would be the government better regulating dating apps, since that’s how the vast majority of people meet their partners now.
