wonder why they didn't implement something like privacy pass (private access tokens / private state tokens)

red flags:
-how were they having these intimate conversations in clubs blasting massive attack? -yes i do believe MDMA can be used to facilitate open communication, but also think that this superpower would be better served to create/restore lasting relationships vs single-dose convos in clubs -none of the potential downsides to her drug use were listed. iirc, back then mdma was frequently cut with meth. the author doesn't mention safety around testing your drugs or long-term mental / physical issues stemming from large-dose/chronic MDMA usage.
not to diminish their nostalgia and their decisions -- go do drugs. legalize .*
The issue apparently is no one knows how to make money

"The Home Computer Generation":"Computer Literacy"::"The Everquest Generation":"Gaming Literacy"
Young gamers starting off in everquest had a hard time of it (just like the author states with getting things to work on computers), then we made everything easier e.g., finding groups, minimaps, pay-to-win" (as the author states with Steam), and now we have a generation of people who don't understand how things work...
How hard was it for a middle aged farmer to actually download and set up the app to get $30 out of it?
And to your point, how many citizens are using cash primarily because its untraceable? When people say they prefer cash, The journo should have followed up with 'why'?
I suspect one of the larger reasons this failed is due folks above age 40 not given it a shot because of how complex it all is to use for them.
It looks like the government ARE running a lightning node as part of the service, however:

1) free conversion from btc to usd 2) large discounts for purchases of gasoline using btc 3) no bank account or a credit card needed
This blows my mind. The reasons stated were:
'Among the one in five Salvadorans who knew about Chivo but did not download it, the top reason was a preference for using cash. Others said they did not trust the system or bitcoin, they did not own a phone with internet, or the technology was complicated.'
I was just in El Cuco, a small town in southern El Salvador. This town has no bank and no ATM but they do have one of these Bitcoin ATMs. I asked the hotel owner about it and ZERO PEOPLE HAD USED IT. We are talking about free money here. My gut is telling me it's mostly older folks who think it's too complicated to figure out.
When freshly made tortillas are less than 5 us cents, and the cost of gas is near $5/a gallon, I would have assumed everyone would run for the free $30 in btc. Color me impressed.
I never got into hardcore raiding in any of the games I chased, but I definitely experienced the "magic" as others have discussed here and in other places.
Things like running around Ak'Anon for the first time ever, taking down a tough dungeon with a great group, the first 200 person pvp bane and destroying another guilds tree of life -- what are the modern-day equivalents?
For me, beyond the things like being in my teens (freetime), the novelty of a networked online world, and being able to arbitrage real-world-dollars for in-game items, what fascinated me was always seeing players and guilds do unbelievable things. Each game had their own version of Furor Planedefiler who I would essentially idolize and strive to become.
Everyone seemed to be switching to WoW when it came out and for some reason (life/age/drugs/lack of a real guild or fellowship affiliation) I fell off the mmorpg gaming bandwagon and haven't really been back since.
Mincecraft & games like Fornite are the successors to WoW for the next generation -> and they don't really follow the dungeons and dragons format used in the MMORPG's of our early years.
The success of minecraft & roblox style games made me realize I don't think I can predict what the next generation of "mmorpg-like" games will actually be. However, surely the "next thing" will need something MORE than just an improvement in technology to be successful.
publishers using custom http2/http3 libs, NDK obfuscators, etc all break the "auto patch" sslstrip stuff
Failing miserably is less likely given you have some "success in role" criteria they are clearly demonstrating beforehand.
Not sure I follow the burn concept here? If they are shitty why promo, unless you want the initiative to fail? If they are good see above
