So... Nothing different than what was in the article.

Found the racist!

No, NFTs are bullshit. The technology that powers them devours electricity and the only “ownership” they offer is contingent on the services that verify said ownership and deliver said content continuing to operate in perpetuity.

The crypto community’s “thinking I’m smart” / “being a colossal dumbass” is fucking unmatched. The biggest suckers in the world thinking they’re pulling MENSA shit.

Sounds like Jamie Spears is behaving irrationally. I’m concerned about his recent behavior and overall mental health, based on his behavior here. Maybe someone should step in and take the reins.

The fact that the author’s name is Karen really is the chef’s kiss in all of this racist mess.

“Christian fiction” - Well, there’s a redundant phrase.

Mental issues are health issues.

lol investor calls are not for the benefit of non-institutional investors

You’re aware that the amount of stock you own in any of your tiny, little retirement investment accounts doesn’t ACTUALLY give you a voice in any shareholder meeting, right?

They have zero incentive to attempt to make moral changes at companies they invest in. They don’t care about workers, or even the…

This was an investor call with the handful of big institutions that control a large amount of shares and can singe handily make a material impact on the stock price. Including those firms that manage all those retirement accounts. Obviously no one is talking about us rank and file retail investors with no real power.

Anecdotally speaking all my Xbox controllers are still alive after years of my brand of use. 

Writers all over Gizmodo’s website have spent more than 2 years saying they have no control over the number of ads or where they are placed on the page (nor how broken kinja is). With that end mind, I doubt they have any influence over what gets advertised beyond “theinventory.com” and all other ads are probably just…

That’s likely not up to anyone writing or editing these articles.

For those keeping score at home...
