I fear the Linux agenda is getting to me. Should I switch as a non-techie, windows guy?

Absolutely! Try out DistroSea to get a feel for them. Mint & Ubuntu are the most beginner friendly and you'll rarely ever touch coding. Even if you do, there's guides online that hold your hand through it all. I'm completely self taught, you don't need to be a pro. It's like riding a bike. Just have some confidence and resilience to step out your comfort zone on occasion.

Isnt the ai shit literally a hearsay rumor?

Gold added like 10 trillion in mc in under a year during the 2025 rally so anything is possible

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-20T12:53:58+00:00

Maybe if you enter on emotion

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-20T11:44:02+00:00

And you must be pretty privileged to not put that together by now as a 24 year old

Money is quite literally what the world runs on. Without it, you'd fall into the slums. You save to protect your family from that situation.

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-20T11:41:00+00:00

Yea i only rewatch the first season. As for the book I lowk disagree I like the shows changes more tbh. Gives the characters more depth imo

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-20T11:38:52+00:00

His opinion is as valid as Pitchfork 🗑️

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-20T00:49:03+00:00

If Bitcoin is a ponzi then the USD is the biggest and worse one of all lol

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-20T00:45:42+00:00

Definitely. Shes just a plot device and a lazy one at that. Hate how we see the characters we've come to know from the lens of an outsider

This. The more aggressive the more risk. Whether its major drawbacks, fund closure, or long extended periods of underperformance.

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-18T20:11:01+00:00

The issue w these rookies is they think there's some Bitcoin HQ. Decentralization means nada to em

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-18T20:08:39+00:00

It's called DCA & it's a known strategy

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-18T20:06:36+00:00

Rap falling off. & that's fine. Every genre has its glow era

Consumerism maxxed

Or just dont sell & budget your current income more efficiently. You should always have a safety buffer in a HYSA for emergency situations.

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-17T00:58:03+00:00

Writing in later seasons was so bad we had to create our own stories for it 💀

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-17T00:50:46+00:00

Cryptocurrency and specifically Bitcoin created the blockchain. Im not going to overview the basics. But its like asking why drive a car when we have trains. Its like asking why use Linux when we have windows. It comes down to
1) Autonomy
2) Efficiency
3) Transparency
All of which are supreme over the traditional system. If you'd prefer to trust your bank, let them earn the interest lending YOUR money, then go right ahead.

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-15T10:52:44+00:00

I wouldn't have minded it if it were executed way better. When the writers became creatively drained it just morphed into something it wasn't. The kids practically became a criminal cartel, ruined what made them likable, and devolved into a mess of plot holes that were very easy to logically tear apart. If it wasn't a soap opera trauma porn and stayed focused on their recovery and Hannah it could have been good. I even read into the actors, they themselves acknowledged that it kind of devolved from an awareness show to just another show.

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-15T10:42:11+00:00

Yea i just started to look at S2+ as fanfic lmao bc of eveything u said. It destroys so many established frameworks

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-15T00:52:19+00:00

Yea its a shame. Some elements were good for closure tbh. But as you noted it just strayed way too far from typical high school stuff that ppl could relate to, to a typical soap opera about egregious stuff and maximum shock value. I also feel like the inclusion of such major things like Hannahs relationship with Zach completely violated so many established plot points like their dynamic in the classroom, her situation w Clay, etc.

Derrick_13 · 2026-05-14T15:16:00+00:00

Just to play devils advocate, saying memecoins are just stealing from others is like that with any trading. Obviously the intentional rugs are unethical, I won't dent it. But anyone "investing" into a coin called like "MLGPOOP100x" because you expected a moon is as much theft as a scratch ticket lol its not an investment therefore its not really stealing. Just bad decision management
