I think the Internet still has lots of promise. We just did a capitalism on it. If we can get the cancer out it’ll be an amazing thing again.

But I do think some of that early promise was overestimated, because mostly smart people were on it then. We thought it was the medium, but it was just techies or people with hobbies or interest that made it that special place, now that your average Joe is there it’s mostly shit, but go somewhere with a little barrier to entry (like Lemmy) and it is pretty cool again.

So we are going to be fighting the CIA or what?

If joke haha If not joke he meant not far in future

I dunno. If I think about how many of my friends were sports betting 15 years ago vs today it’s at least 10x today. I feel like that was caused by market availability not a change in demand. They would’ve always bet if it was this easy to do and if it becomes hard again they’ll stop.
