   I keep accumulating tech bro characteristics but I don't want to be a tech bro. I like to think I have characteristics that are techbro-canceling. That is my hope.

     @Moon all in all, like multiple words, it's a word that means everything and nothing. If I'm not mistaken it started in SJW circles to shame men and frat-ish boy culture, because IT is very male and you obviously get male behaviors
     
     I'd say Tech Bro today now describes the kinda various tech leeches, like the dude who thinks NFTs will work intergame and he will be able to make money from playing games, fucking idiot. Or maybe even the kind of shitlib nuisance who works for the devil (google and co) and actively work to make life hell for everyone under the guise of social justice and the likes

     @CrushBead @Moon I suppose Crypto is definitively tech bro-ish, but we all lost the higher ground of making fun of "buttcoins" once it reached skyhigh and made millionaires

     @drudgesentinel @CrushBead @Moon I dunno, the general idea behind it isn't too bad. But all the alt-coins and the various scams and fuckups that happened can fuck off

     >like the dude who thinks NFTs will work intergame and he will be able to make money from playing games, fucking idiot.
     
     These tech bros have always baffled me, anyone with common sense would know that NFTs being made to operate inter-game would be a huge waste of time and money for corporations who would skip making models for NFTs imported from other titles in order to make their own shiny cash grab.
     
     The techies who swear that "play2earn" will be the next big thing are also fucking retarded as well. People play video games as a form of escapism from real life, they don't want to hop into VR or whatever in order to make some Shitcoin which doesn't translate into a reasonable amount of money

     @coolboymew @drudgesentinel @Moon
     If I had to choose between an ammo box filled with silver ingots or a wallet full of crypto I am taking the silver 100% of the time every time no matter how high the crypto gets. Like I get it as a form of trading and as long as someone values something enough to buy it then it has "worth," but it simply doesn't exist outside of a computer. It's no more real than fiat currency is.

     It's actually insane to see the level of retardation some of these people fall to. Like I saw one guy who bought a "plot" in Decentraland which is basically just a square of space in a shitty metaverse and swore he would never sell it until it reaches a million dollars in value

     @CrushBead @coolboymew @drudgesentinel most of my net worth is already crypto and not because i bought it like you'll have to buy silver.

     @CrushBead @Moon @coolboymew silver doesn't have inherent value either, which makes it funnier that the value of fiat is based on it

     @coolboymew @CrushBead @Moon And critically it made millionaires without forcing harm onto uninvolved bystanders, unlike the concept of housing as an investment asset.

     @drudgesentinel @coolboymew @CrushBead @Moon Monero was interesting to me as an actual currency, but I’ve been sober for years now so I no longer care
