I wish the #Odysee sync was faster, but it is what it is eh…
I just got a notification from @ordinarygamers from my discord server I setup (it’s kind of a mess ngl) and I normally watch his content on Odysee, just wish it was faster although I believe it takes time as per API requests. Takes time to upload to the LBRY network I believe… @lemmy#syncthing#videohosting#Cryptocurrency#lbry#BlockChain#YouTube
God damn Bitcoin network fees spiked. Had to switch to ethereum to cover @mastohost hosting fees. I had a data overage and for $20 wanted $50 in Bitcoin network fees.
Apparently it’s due to Bitcoin NFT’s the Rune’s. I don’t get most of this NFT shit and I’m a fan of cryptocurrency.
Anyway just a reminder all tips and donations cover my content creation and server hosting. I take cryptocurrency, Ko-Fi, and Stream Elements.
Consider how long it took society to realize the net negative that #SocialMedia is. How long before we saw the scam of the#gigeconomy for what it was? After a decade of breathless promises, people are no longer seriously waiting on #AutonomousVehicles and #Cryptocurrency is finally seen by the wider public as the toxic libertarian fraud it always was.
Consider all this and that #GenerativeAI has only been in the public consciousness for about a year and ALREADY non-tech-oriented outlets are lampooning it for the bald-faced nonsense that it is as well as the #techbros who shill it as the robber barons they are. I am not going to say that we have yet learned our lesson, but this is to me a very promising sign. #aiisascam#goodnewshttps://youtu.be/20TAkcy3aBY

In the beginning, the computer was invented. It had many uses, and people saw that it was good, and much money was made.
Then, the Internet was invented. It, too, had many uses, and people saw that it was good, and much money was made.
Seeing this, the techbros concluded that people will see any new technology as good, and that much money will be made, and so they invented #cryptocurrency, and said that it had many uses and was good.
I have some content on securing accounts with @yubico seeing as I upgraded to an iPhone 15 with USBC I no longer use lighting so Yubico sent me two 5C NFC keys to upgrade my 5Ci’s.
Plus I will be discussing securing cryptocurrency with multiple levels of security. Basically there will be two wallets, one with a standard BIP39 key and the other with a Shamir shard. With the idea of a wallet with small amounts and another for HODL
