4) creating opportunities for breaks from the screen to consider ones physical environment, eg. while they wait a day for a HD film to be delivered they might partake in other activities and #hobbies,
5) helping people gain more #anonymity (if each stream is max 28kbps it becomes difficult for #networkAnaylsis to track packets), perfect for #I2P,
6) a #SlowWebMovement that is analogous to the #SlowFoodMovement.

What would #theInternet be like if everyone tested and designed their web experiences based on individual connections of maximum 28kbps.

So you can have multiple 28kbps connections going at once, but a server basically refuses to deliver to a client at a speed greater than 28k.

Would such an #internet be intriguing to you?

If bitcoin were to empower big capital it would be because the people sat back and *assumed* then *allowed* the space to become dominated by capital.

It requires work and some modicum of capital, but it is decentralised and worlds ahead of legacy structures.

It also incentivises #saving and #lowerConsumption which is imperative moving forward. Anyone who believes they should be given #credit to overconsume is going to hate bitcoin.

PSA: Nuclear energy is #deathFuel.

We need to do (more) with less.

We can finally appreciate #lowerConsumption and #degrowth and reject #plannedObsolescence. Bitcoin gives #conservation the advantage it has always been worthy of but never been able to secure because, over the ages, cities develop in such a way to debase currencies. Its why grifters in #NewYork and #London despise it so vehemently.

Finally we have and end to the multi-generational War on Savers.

Having an feature like this is not just helpful from a enhanced #privacy perspective. Its also is a great #awarenessTool, insofar as how demanding are the websites we are looking at? How often are they polling and congesting the #network? Is it warranted?

To help the movement towards building more #energyEfficient and carbon-friendly #websites, we think a feature like this will play a role.

And as we've said before, if we don't like what #China is doing, #boycott them the way people do #Israel.

Oh no, we can't do that because that is what #Trump did (under more #politicallyCorrect #nationalSecurity and #intellectualProperty but nonetheless). We're not Trump fans, we think he was a #fracking mess but we digress.

Don't like China? Turn inward, #lowerConsumption and be okay with it. Again BTC won't solve human greed per se (though does curb #overconsumption ;)

... aging ought to be celebrated fully. #LowerConsumption, tick. Less #violentCrime, tick. People can and do choose to work into later years (ie. higher #particiption), tick.

A #societalShift that celebrates being healthy longer is needed, when the right attitudes towards #care are adopted with #careWorkers celebrated w #higherPay compared to #nonProductive #whiteCollar workers we may start to see better outcomes without t need to #poachLabour from ...
