    @efi @aeva so you mean you would have to checks notes inject the money you're hoarding back into the economy?
    Plus if it's worthless then you might as well throw it away. And if other people pick it up then it's not even littering

                @aeva one thing I don't understand is they keep talking of privatising to allow for concurrence. I don't see why an unregulated couldn't be in concurrence with a regulated one. Like sure, 10 years ago, france had massive investment in power and actor coming to the maeket had none so competing would have been hard but that's the market. Instead they split the power making and power selling, forced selling power at cost for 10 years so other could invest. Spoiler, they made no invest, only profit

                    @aeva ok, it's not entirely true. A few cooperative did investment in wind and solar farm and seems to be profitable.

                                  @aeva ok, there is slop inside linux but my point is more linux don't take screenshot if you screen every three seconds before sending it to resdmon for OCR. Mostly because wayland cannot take screenshot. It's a security issue apparently.

                                  * go see if tuxcart can be ported to wii *

                                      @aeva Are there any political ideologies that are pro inflation? It seems like all it does (assuming labour costs keep up) is devalue cash assets, which is another way of saying someone else's debt. And that seems good actually?
