“It’s impact on society will be on the same level as the invention of the atomic bomb!” (actual comparison made by some big tech CEO)
“Oh my god, so it will be very well regulated and operated with the utmost care?”
“Actually no, not at all.”
Why exactly am I, a human who has to pay bills, supposed to be excited about this or to support it?

World News@lemmy.world•Lufthansa group is cutting 20,000 flights due to Iran war triggered surge in fuel prices / fuel shortagesEnglish
2·25 days agoTo be fair, the press kind of parrots the Lufthansa spokesman. In reality, this is probably more of a consequence of shutting down Cityline preemptively. It already was a losing business before fuel got expensive and on top of that, they had the strikes. The fuel prices are a convenient excuse to get rid of it earlier than planned.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•What happens if all the money ends up in hands of billionaire's corporations?
17·1 month agoThat is an ongoing process, but it looks much different from what you imagine. Even now, a large part of the economy is working for the top 10 percent, producing luxury goods and services. Wealthy customers provide the biggest margins for companies.
“Regular” customers are getting more irrelevant every day. There was a time when your role as a consumer was important for the economy. This role gave you power and influence because companies were competing for your money. This era is slowly coming to an end, something most people haven’t realized yet.

34·1 month agoHonestly, sounds like a solid plan. The best time to start this would have been a decade ago. The second best time is now. To be fair, we already made good progress into this direction, bit we need to double down, that much has become obvious in the last few weeks.

Reduce Iran’s ability to monetize passage through the straight.
Reduce Iran’s ability to make money from its oil production.
Encourage other countries to increase pressure on Iran to agree to US terms.
Not saying it’s a good idea, but the thinking behind it seems obvious.

World News@lemmy.world•British computer scientist denies he is bitcoin developer Satoshi NakamotoEnglish
1·1 month agoI read the original article from the New York Times and found it compelling. There are quite a few coincidences that kind of line up, although none of it is hard evidence. But it’s the most reasonable investigation I’ve seen so far.
Ah, The Orb, absolute classic. Sometimes people would get out of their cars to check out our contraption. Their abandoned cars would be found weeks later in the old creek. Good old times.
