Just read an article that said that restrictions in windows 11 will send an estimated 240million PCs to the landfill this year. I bet a lot of people are quick to comment on their Windows PC about how energy intensive and bad bitcoin and other crypto is, though. At least one is doing something that’s never been done before (crypto).
I also wonder how much energy it took us to get to the moon? I guess we should have never done that because of the energy it took to accomplish.
I wonder if people were like this about vehicles when they were first mass produced and available to everyone.
I don’t even care if someone doesn’t like crypto, I have friends that don’t care for it, but they don’t try to rationalize it with some lame ass arguments that can be debunked by a child. I don’t understand why lemmy is full of these folks.

Last time I asked, someone explained to me that bitcoin uses more and more power depending on how long the ledger is :)
These pathetic crypto jokes are popular. People adore them. They don’t adore knowledge about even what the basics of crypto are.
