Try to be informed about the stuff you can have an impact on

For example on my rss feed I just wiped out most of the non EU stuff. It’s ok to know that there are wildfires somewhere in the world but being overexposed is really just toxic

I can organize here in Italy, not even the whole of it but my region and the cities I spend time in. It’s much better to know what my little city council is discussing about rather than any even major event but so far from me.

Unluckily, social media doesn’t help too much with curating the feeds but as others said try to work more on mutes and filters. Don’t forget that getting informed is just one tool for change, do not get too high on it :)

Edit and P.S. : it’s also much easier that on social networks driven by engagement algorithms the posts that travel the most are the ones that cause hate/rage and sex or generally emotions easier to exploit online. Newspapers themselves tend to post more negative stuff. It’s just a human bias, take it into account and watch around yourself to find the positive stuff of life

Just avoid following climate and collapse x)

I myself do not follow them lol

Does your revenue service have a way of monitoring this or would they have to verify each case manually?

Alright, you keep not reading the article (it clearly says that every transaction has to emit both a fattura and a scontrino). And it’s not “my”(nor “ours”, i’m not involved) service.

This happening in Sicily

The fact that you confuse Sardegna with Sicilia shows even more that you think you know more than you actually do.

To be clear, I don’t think that’s it’s safe from every abuse but as i said for the businesses here it’s much easier to just use cash rather than trying to use digital money.

Sorry but really you are making this conversation less a conversation and more a ‘‘i am right and you have to show me i’m wrong’’; hence i’ll stop answering.

Has anyone ever found to be not compliant?

It is very stupid to use a centralized digital coin to avoid taxes while you can just avoid declaring what you earned when you get cash instead of digital payments

Are they checking for sanctions?

I’m not sure what this means

Who in this financial setup is legally required and accountable for making sure they are paying taxes?

In your country companies are legally required and accountable for making sure their user are paying taxes? Here they are required traceability and stuff but it’s not their job to do the guardia di finanza job.

Btw if you’d actually read the article there is a part that talks how they make everything traceable and that they also talked with the ‘‘agenzia delle entrate’’ that is the italian tax agency themselves.

Honestly i think you are just trying to confirm your biases about italy lol; this stuff has been already regulamentated for years (circuito di credito commerciale) and the only difference that sardex has with other commercial circuits is the fact that they are a fintech and it’s actually expanding thanks to the digital capabilities

If you wanna avoid taxes it is much easier to just rely on cash.

Maybe you weren’t born yesterday but you also haven’t skimmed the whole article that also talks about taxes :)

The problem that it solves is not letting the control of who to help and who not in the hands of the banks. Like any good community currency it gives the possibility to make some debt without issues, thanks to the community trust among members

It’s not that easy to have money from the bank without warranties here. They are not gonna lend money thinking “oh yes it’s even better if you cannot guarantee anything so we can make you homeless” because here in Italy they cannot do infinite shit lol (sorry for the phrasing I could write this better prob)

I was gonna answer myself but I found a link for you https://valori.it/credito-10-anni-sardex-scommessa-vinta/

Btw the “mafia” thing sounds like something that someone who knows nothing about Italy would say. Most of all because thanks to the real struggle with mafia in the past we now have a lot of instruments to keep restrain them. Most of the submerged economy is made by regular companies and professionals that here and there avoid declaring their real earnings.

Thank you for taking your time to answer for me!

yes, hence why i used a dot before it. i guess it’s not clear and i should edit

tell me if it’s better now :)

After the API exodus sure got worse but I don’t see much difference from the reddit-before-that

Also, there are still a looot of power users still on reddit. So yes quality got worse there but it’s not like the bests came here anyway

Sad tho.

“Random” events of “evil”. Basically I think we’ll never reach something like 0 murders, 0 rapes, 0 stealing for little greed and so on. Or even 0 addiction (edit: i’m not including addiction to the previous list of crimes, i wanted to add it as another class of issues for we will never reach a true 0)

We are very very far from the ideal situation tho, there is a looot of margin of improvement

Like your alcohol thing in the post: ban only makes it worse and still now you (as US, not you OP) have a very weird relationship with alcohol with the thing that minors cannot touch it and people have to drink from a paper bag lol. Let’s say that you are not really trying hard to improve the situation. We’ll never reach 0 alcoholists but society is not in a good shape and alcohol is cheap so ye

I’m not sure I’m explaining myself well enough.

That was my point since the beginning and you are not the first one repeating it lol

Free as in freedom not just as in beer

And paying for distribution is not the same as paying for the software…

No, because I cannot compile stuff

Exactly why I said it’s easier to have people paying on iOS for foss

There are no apk to just avoid stores

It’s actually “easier” to sustain a FOSS app on Apple for this reason

You put a price tag to the client/app and there it is a business model without relying on donation, because the user cannot sideload without being a dev :)

Sorry but how is it ghosting? You tried more and more to contact him and he didn’t answer? Because if no one contacts the other is just idk end of something not ghosting lol

You wanna talk with him about this stuff? Do it!

And don’t put on him all the “immature” or “receiving side” stuff, you are the one clearly into him but still going around and around never being direct…

You can do it! 🤜🤛

Since we are not a registered non-profit or so, we cannot provide you with a certificate for tax deductions though

Consider opencollective :3

B-Corp. But as long as they don’t show any kind of sustainable business model compared to their costs, ye the result doesn’t differ much

The map on the meme is fake both ways

Anyway, where did you get the numbers? I’m interested

Maybe it’s sharing public keys in person time again

Honestly i’d like something that focuses on this rather than trying once again to be WhatsApp/telegram but secure

The police already can easily know my irl social circle but I still don’t want to let them know when and why I talk to them

Simplex was in a good direction then they took vc money while having startup status and they are aiming to replace other messengers

Yes we need a sequel with giga chad only using paper, aluminum and glass

(Yes yes except for hospitals)
