They do? I’m only at then recently arriving to fishman island but I only remember them being given stuff or accidentally ending up with stuff so far. They were given the gold in skypia and the ghost girl is the one who loaded their ship with gold in thriller bark.

In fairness, the Straw hats basically operate on the same principal.

and the remaster looks the way I remember Arkham Asylum looking.

That’s what happened to me with Metroid Prime

Por lo menos en español no tenemos este problema.

You crypto heads always bring up the Argentinian Peso even though it’s still actually more stable than even Bitcoin. People aren’t buying Argentinian Pesos thinking they might become rich one day, because it’s an actual currency, not a speculative asset, which is what crypto is. It won’t spike in value over 3 months or dive off a cliff by multitudes of thousands. I guess if you’re a 300 year old vampire or a Galapagos tortoise it’s not stable to you, but a currency having a crash but then staying at a crashed value, over the course of decades, is in fact stability. Having crashes and spikes over months if not weeks is not stability.

But ignoring that, most of the world does actually accept US dollars - it’s the most traded currency in the world. It’s also safe to say in nearly every country you can probably exchange USD to the local currency fairly easily.

If you can find me a city where more stores accept Bitcoin rather than the designated currency, then sure. I’m not sure a single one exists.

And that’s bitcoin, which actually is well known and traded. What the person in the article lost wasn’t even that, not any other well known crypto like Ethereum.

Do the majority of locations that offer goods and services accept USDC in it’s designated region? Can you buy groceries at basically anywhere with it, watch a movie, pay for a gym subscription etc with it? Can you buy a home or other shelter with it?

If no, then no, I don’t, since it didn’t meet that criteria.

Edit: also, what’s the point of USDC, at least based on your description? Sounds it’s just using more resources to do the same thing a debt card does.

A form of relatively stable currency that is accepted to have value for the trade of goods and services by the majority of locations.

Memecoins from pump fun that are less stable than Trump’s mood and vent be used to buy pretty much anything are definitely not that

Thanks for the clarification

I’ve donated to them before, but I remember some anti-LGBTQ+ issues from one of the lead developers I think a few years ago. Has that been addressed?

It’s more of a:

“If person A acts badly, Person B to ∞ act badly in the same manner to person A”.

But I can see the programming failure of the suggested rule as written, as it can be implied that only person B should act upon person A, rather than everyone.

Sure, the moment I start doing that feel free to take me out. That’s, kinda the whole point. The important part is you remember that it applies to you as well.

Basically MAD except it’s others keeping others accountable.

Counterpoint: Getting rid of the people making others blind makes more of the world see.

I don’t think it’s circular, I think it’ll burn itself out eventually.

Now my experience is purely anecdotal, but the bullies stopped bullying once I fought back, and even more so once I got others to also join me in physically fighting back.

“an eye for an eye” is more reactive compared to this. In this case, it’s not about waiting for the person to harm you, but acting preemptively if they have a history of harming others.

I guess a modern example would be Putin. Let’s say he randomly walks into a bar unprotected for some reason in Comoros, but the Islanders know who he is and what he’s done as well.

In this case, Putin has done absolutely nothing to the people of Comoros, and his actions have had no effect on the island either. Yet, by this rule, he should be treated the same way he has treated Ukraine by the Islanders regardless.

As someone else has pointed out though, if you don’t know the person at all, then the default golden rule is fine enough.

I thought it was “might makes right”. Can’t keep the gold otherwise.

I think the oligarch wants to be treated with riches and subservience.

And if a teen is bullying someone, I don’t see the issue in them being bullied back so they can learn “hey, this bullying stuff isn’t great, maybe I should stop”.

At least you got it.

The golden rule by itself just leaves a bunch of killers who don’t care about it surviving.

Yeah, that’s a better version too than the original.

I don’t think that’s a good idea if that other person is, say, a pedophile.
