I hope that he decides to work on a neutral payment processing system. Cooperating with the EU's Linux initiatives, he can probably put quite a bit of weight onto the scale, making a digital Euro into a thing.

The EU now has a digital wallet payment system in a trail run

Would be neat if they integrate it

So much for cash anonymity. Unless a payment system is completely anonymous whilst supporting secure transactions, it's a non-starter. Unfortunately the EU does not appear to be able to tolerate privacy for its citizens, hence constant attempts to undermine and curtail any privacy/anonymity-first technologies or concepts.

What a coup if they solve the problem by building their own payment processor company

I read part of this interview elsewhere and it quoted him as saying he enjoys hanging out with people on his boat. My first thought was that those people are paid to be on the boat.

All friends are transactional friends when you're that wealthy, which should be depressing to them, but they carry on and fuck the hollow models and that's that.

What handheld is he playing in the top image? Looks too small to be a steam deck

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 41 points 6 days ago

It's a Steam Deck, he has big hands.

Gaben during the interview:!

If he ran a restaurant instead, I'd say he's the irl Dave the diver
