    Maybe Nuclear, given it can actually support the base load power, except they need to fully deregulate it first so Nimbys and lawsuits balloon the cost. It shouldnt cost more nowadays in inflation adjusted terms than France building them in the 70s.





  • Agree to disagree, I think it opens up the doors to average people making large projects that would have never been possible before. Children will love making videos just as I loved online flash animations and using 3d Movie Maker growing up, the doomerism is astounding when companies like Disney have grown so fat and garish.

    Again taxi companies are already gouging us and this is the reality you are trying to save us from, Taxi companies also provide a crap service. I find Uber a far better service.

    What ledger’less crypto has enough trade volume to absorb the proceeds of crime? I assumed it meant something with some actual trade volume like Bitcoin.


  • Disney does own most of the distribution now, which will eventually move to something free like Youtube. But instead of the artists being beholden to Disney and making a pittance on Disneys revenue they can do it themselves, still making their own art, and use AI, whatever they want to tell a compelling story.

    USD is widely used and distributed, and there is zero way for them to track the majority of bills which flow all over the world.








  • The plagiarism machine is eroding any moat a company like Disney has for gatekeeping media, the way its going a tiny group of people can replace a studio. This will usher in an era of free media and allow a real culture to develop that a for-profit corporation could never create.

    The cab company alternative was a taxi, which was a government granted monopoly known for having extortionate prices.

    Using a public ledger that can be tied directly to a person is an awfully silly way to hide a crime, exchanging cash or some other untraceable medium of exchange is far safer.

    Hotels I can agree with, but only because zoning laws prevent density from forming automatically when theres more demand for scarce real estate. Its really only a problem due to municipal zoning laws which are the main cause of rising home values.
