So my company decided to migrate office suite and email etc to Microsoft365. Whatever. But for 2FA login they decided to disable the option to choose “any authenticator” and force Microsoft Authenticator on the (private) phones of both employees and volunteers. Is there any valid reason why they would do this, like it’s...
And yet, not concerned enough to make the quality of life any better where people want to have children. Its like the greed is getting in the way of their ability to be more greedy in the future.
Lol. How much does it cost to have a child in the hospital in the USA again? Oh, $18,865 you say? Huh. What if they need an ambulance to get there? Oh, $500 to $3000 depending on distance you say? And you say also that US Bureau of Labor and Statistics is letting us know that in four short years our grocery prices have risen 22.04% and are expected to rise another 5.11% per year indefinitely? Meanwhile corporate profits increase every single year and minimum wage has been stagnant for decades? Someone should get them quick!!! I think I figured out why no one wants to have babies anymore! I would like to also comment on how obscenely expensive daycare is and how fucked up it is we have to put children in school 40 hours a week just so we can keep working more than half our lives away but I feel like anyone reading this gets the idea. They will be begging your ass to have babies in the next 100 to 200 years if we make it that long and I’ll bet you all those obscene expenses will be an even greater cost to income ratio then, too. I mean if birthrates are a problem you have to ask yourself are they just fucking stupid or just fucking greedy?
Here’s a good example of a time that it didn’t and they made up the results anyway. Mix that in with the electoral college and you got yourself a worthless voting system.

Tesla is a load of shit for sure but SpaceX and this Neuralink of it really does what its supposed to, actually contribute to humanity. Especially this.
I mean damn bro helping humans potentially walk again is a pretty big “for us” thing if you think about it in terms of humankind and not just yourself. Like imagine if someone were trying to cure cancer with the help of the public and you’re all like “well what the fuck is in it for ME though?”
Atomicswap is nice if you prefer using BTC as a trading pair to receive Monero with. I have heard good things about exch.cx, but I think they charge like 5% for swaps to Monero. Haveno sounds promising, but is probably months away from being usable. I wouldn’t really recommend doing anything over 5Kworth of fiat per swap on any service though. 1 BTC is insane to me the fees aren’t that high for BTC right now and it would have only taken a little bit more time and a negligible cost in transaction fees to spread that out into like 4 transactions.
The problem with bisq is you have to pay the transaction fees like 3 or 4 different times because you have to also lock up an amount of BTC pre transaction in case you try to scam someone and then when they send it back to you you also pay that transaction again. Despite monero making up 80% of their transactions they refuse to support it or another trading pair like LTC or BCH to facilitate cheaper trading pairs and that’s seen widely as a problem and the main reason it isn’t more popular.
I see a lot of comments on the Monero subreddit that Monero is economically viable because it has a monopoly over darknet market transactions. However, the demand for illegal narcotics from people smart enough to use Tor Browser is probably at the end of its elasticity. If this is all Monero has, Monero holders will be...
