Doubles as an air purifier and UPS. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────┴───────────┘ -> file: notes/ideal-raleigh-structure ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────── with a baseline directory structure, a measure of order and semblance of direction and purpose enable three. next, of course, is the final of 1 ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/768 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────── when the meek are the bold and your loyalty's sold then your masters should fold or their hearts are full of cold ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/769 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────── If a person gathers enough money that they can't spend it fast enough, then they are hoarding it and it should be be distributed through the rest of the economy. There are legitimate uses that could benefit from extra dollars and by keeping them locked up they are damaging the economy, and hence, our society, which is largely governed by our economy. There is a legitimate fear that dismantling the system of monetary exchange will cause people to barter in influence and clout instead, trading favors and making illusory transactions that the government cannot impartially enforce. Impartiality is the entire purpose of governance! Look to NFTs for an example of this. While that is a valid concern, it is just as if not more concerning to consider that they already do this. They already trade favors for blood, gold, and property. What else is there to covet, in their wicked and cruel game of maximum exploitation and unlimited industrious fallacies? I believe it is reasonable to curtail the worst excesses of their monetopoly by diverting power to the people who can contest them. Just as rulers of old were checked and balanced by the vote of the citizenry upon implementing democracy, so too much power be abated by depriving it of its most powerful leverage - that of its crushing weight, when applied en masse. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/770 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────── There are some pieces of software where you think "oh cool, what did they update?" and then there are some like "oh god...
