Providing someone else money for a time to use for whatever purpose they desire is of no value? I think that literally most every person on the planet would disagree with you. Are you saying you’ve never borrowed money for anything, ever?
Then make and host your own instance and take those risks yourself. That’s the power of the Fediverse.
The fuck is the whole point of the Fediverse. If an instance operator doesn’t want to host something, you are free to sign up with someone who does or host your own instance and take those risks yourself.
And that means it’s a scam today how exactly? The Bible was pretty explicitly against a lot of things. Are they scams? Is wearing two different fabrics a scam? Is eating shellfish a scam?
Ok, but its archaic status as immoral does not make it a “scam” today.
In what way is compound interest a scam? Who has been “scammed” by compound interest and how?
I had a drawerful of FoTL boxer briefs in various colors that I bought in various quantities from the late 90’s to the mid-2010’s, replacing worn out ones as I went. In 2021, my wife bought me a pair of Duluth Trading Buck Naked boxer briefs for Christmas. After wearing them a few times, I dumped all my FoTL and bought 3 dozen pairs of Duluth, mostly Buck Naked but a few Armachillo as well. Best decision ever.
Everquest. Also my favorite game from the 2000’s, 2010’s and 2020’s
I tried to sign up to check it out, but apparently the essay I had to write pledging my undying commitment to a community I had not even experienced yet was insufficient to be accepted. Their loss.
What are you on about? People can already be anonymous on Lemmy. This wouldn’t change that.
Rocky Horror Picture Show was dumb as fuck.
Haha, very well may be. I know nothing about that stuff. I guess I should have said “appears to be duct tape”. Blowing the picture up it is definitely not that. It’s definitely metal flashing of some sort.
Ohhhhh… I thought it was going to be the chimneys apparently held in place with duct tape.
Dang, where is there a nursing home for 3k a month? My dad had to go into a nursing home here in Colorado, and had to private pay out of his savings until it was exhausted and the Medicaid kicked in. Private pay at the cheapest place in town was 7.2k a month minimum, and the food was about like that. They shut that facility down a few years ago, and he got moved to a much nicer one that still took medicaid. Food is orders of magnitude better there. Not all places ate like that, but they are all very expensive for private pay.
Waaaaaaaaa… someone doesn’t do exactly what I want done… waaaaaaaaa but I’m unwilling to just do it myself… waaaaaaaaaa…
