I was hooked. It was the first time my PC felt as transparent and lie-free as notebook paper.

Like, there's nothing to hide because nothing is. It's pure, truthful freedom and that meant more to me than raw usability. I tried to do everything possible on Linux that i was told I couldn't do, hell, I ran Team Fortress 2 and Half Life in wine way pre-proton.

and it sucked, but it was cool tho!

I used some Ubuntu derivative for recording shitty music me and my buddy made in a trailer. OSS off of a turtle beach soundcard with a hacked together driver, crammed into a shitty Windows Vista era desktop.

I felt like some sort of junk wizard.

I use arch these days, Garuda mainly. I've done the whole song and dance from Arch to Gentoo. I know the system, now I want to relax and let something I suck at, giving myself features be more in the hands of a catering staff of folks and the Garuda boys know how to pamper.

The dragons kinda... yeah, the art's kinda cringe but damn, this is the definition of fully featured.

Finally, they'll stop suppressing the development of human teleportation systems and they'll flood the market!

Well yeah, it's extremely probable what they claim. It's right there. I'm not discussing claims, I'm discussing the reality. They will need to prove themselves regardless of claims.

walks into a gas station in an illegal state and buys a cannabinoid vape pen with the entire rainbow of cannabinoids available from actual weed sans delta 9

walks by the drinks and see bootleggers, six different sizes of 40 ounce, high ABV drinks infused, some infused with 25 different drugs, vitamins and snake oil

we can't get your ADHD medications!

Clown-ass economy.

It's been done in the crypto space over defi before, and in some regards, you could consider this a fiat version of PoolTogether, but everyone wins.

The thing with Defi liquidity pools vs this is, you know what a place like PoolTogether or Curve is doing to generate revenue, by offering your liquidity for fees and generating a profit from transactions.

You sell, I dunno, MATIC for ETH, someone has to supply the ETH, someone being the pool members, and they collect the fees for the transaction. It's just how defi works.

Banks work similarly, with firms using deposited money in the stock market, generating revenue for the bank.

You know what they're doing. You deposit for the security and insurance a bank provides. For crypto, the yield and gains the pools provide.

For this... ?

Unless they're more open, unless they're really a charity and this isn't a front, I have my doubts on the longevity of this project. Someone will always want theirs, and if it isn't at the beginning, it will just corrupt later.

I'm not touching you!
