For those that do need to use Chrome for whatever reason, don’t bother with all this faff just use uBOL, it’s just as good as uBO

Sure but that ethnic group is only a tiny minority there now and their president isn’t one of them

I think it’s different in the EU

Only half of Liberians speak English, and less than 2% are native speakers. Calling it an English speaking country is a stretch

He’s (probably accidentally) correct in this case, Joseph Boakai’s first language is Kissi

I despise Trump more than most but this article is silly. Only about half of Liberians speak English, and less than 2% speak it as their first language. It’s the official language because there are 31 different languages spoken in the country and they need something to be lingua franca so why not make it English for added international appeal. India is similar

Ok yeah DB has been woefully underfunded for decades thanks to auto industry lobbying and so now half the trains are late or cancelled, but the fact that you even can get from any city to any other city by train and then get to anywhere within each city by bus/tram is mind blowing to some of us that didn’t grow up in Europe. There are lots of places where you basically can’t live without a car, it’s insane.

The only prime factor that 240 has which 10 doesn’t is 3, so using 240 only really helps for multiples of 3

Yeah i suppose any form of payment that you have to keep secret for some reason is a reason to use crypto, though I struggle to imagine needing that if you’re not doing something dodgy

avoiding scams for p2p transactions

Wat. Crypto is not good at solving that, it’s in fact much much worse than traditional payment methods. There’s a reason scammers always want to be paid in crypto

boycotting the banking system

What specifically are you boycotting? The money that backs your crypto (i.e. that you bought it with) still sits in a bank account somewhere and continues to support the banks. All you’re boycotting then are payments, but those are usually free for consumers (many banks lose money on them) so you’re not exactly “sticking it to the man” by not using them. Evem if you were somehow hurting banks by using crypto, if you think the people that benefit from you using crypto (crypto exchange owners and billionaires that own crypto etc.) are less evil than goverment regulated banks, you’re deluded.

What about avoiding international payment fees?

You’ll spend more money using crypto for that, not less

Time to move to a new country

You in the wrong job then

Yes, doing illegal things secretly is a valid use case for crypto. So far, it’s also the only one

Why is it even a goal to stop kids saying these words

I have zero sympathy for people who don’t use an ad blocker

Holy crap… slashdot still exists??

Is that really how it works? I feel like the whole ad based economy is a sham anyway, I wouldn’t mind if it collapsed and we funded websites through micropayments or gift economy
