The double standard the media plays with the 2 candidates is mind blowing. I have two thoughts
-
The media writes a bunch of articles about “Biden old” and social media amplifies them. Then they bring Joe on and say “Let’s put aside that you are doing a great job for a min. A lot of people question if you are able to do the job. Predict the future.”
-
The other guy meanwhile says the media is the enemy of the state. Has vowed retribution against his enemies. Literally talks about having public executions. The Supreme Court he appointed rules that he is immune from law and his lawyer literally agreed with a judge that asked if he could in fact assassinate his rivals.
Bonus thought: Which candidate makes the media more money?
The types of crypto that web3 use are proof of stake and not proof of work type chains, so energy usage is not much different than any web based service. People don’t do nuisance, so bitcoin uses proof of work, uses lot of power and that as much as people know. There are thousands of different blockchains and almost all of them besides bitcoin use proof of stake. So just from that point of view, its not an significantly different than any web project for the climate.
That said, the article posted above, I have no idea and other concerns about crypto and AI still apply.
