@interstellar_wind I've heard about planned obsolescence since 2008 or so via #ZeitgeistMovement, from #PeterJoseph media I believe.

I would reinterpret it as this: we live in #government mandated #fiat money world, where easily inflated money reduces motivations to save, and increases to spend, i.e. motivating high time preference. But that's whole #Bitcoin rabbit hole you can dive via Fiat Standard and Bitcoin Standard books.

In Gold Standard people built building to last, as example...

@Lightrider I was a very active advocate too for the #ZeitgeistMovement and the #TheVenusProject a while back but I realized that I had to move to the practice and leave the theory for later. Great to see you around here. Interested in #blockchain capabilities to improve the world too.

#introduction I'm a helplessly addicted #birdsite refugee that is interested in #raspberrypi #linux #blockchain #technology and #gaming. Also into #politics and #economics. Was booted from my previous instance for talking about a different social media site, which is weird. Advocate for a resource based economy #rbe. Longtime member of the #ZeitgeistMovement. We can house feed and care for everyone on the planet but the monetary system prevents us from doing so. Money is over, if you want it.
