RE: Oppression: Symptoms and Causes
So you mean to say that boycotting intel would disproportionally harm crypto currencies? Very interesting... Would it really kill it though?
That seems like maybe too harsh words to me, but I have to admit that I certainly do not know enough to make a definite statement.
It wouldn't matter if the inflation slowing (what dan considers to be "harm") were disproportionate or not. If it's disproportionate, then the less CPU-intensive currencies (which are also more eco-responsible) would have a well-deserved edge.
If the effect were proportional, then it would be less disruptive, which is a little less than ideal from an environmental standpoint. But in either case the "falling sky" narrative is wacky, and I hope that no one seriously uses it as a basis to rationalize the unethical consumption of Intel products.
