 Hey, in case you weren't aware, #inflation has risen 7.1% just from January 1st until today. That's annualized 14.2% inflation in the US. No wonder my house priced in #Monero keeps getting cheaper. 
 TLDR? 
 @SUPERMAX A decentralized Monero Exchange now exists for the first time. 
 At 11:27 a.m Eastern time today May 14th 2024 governments around the world lost full control over #Monero because now a haveno network called reto is fully online. https://monero.town/post/3143272
 
 it is the Monero version of bisq.
 
 As of this time, two transactions have already occurred, and at least one of them was just a successful test. 
 The governmyth says #inflation is decreasing and that may be true. However, averages dont lie and looking at the average price of #gold, #silver, and #Monero from the beginning of 2023 until now all three show an average increase of 10% to 12%. Now, since gold and silver are hard assets and monero is as good as, what does that tell you? It tells me that i have to spend 10% more than i did at the beginning of the year. Which is why i hold very little money in dollars.

 @13f889e9 yeah, i didnt figure you were. 
 If you need a good screen reader #accessible #lemmy client give Thunder a shot. I have reported tons of issues to the devs and they fix them quick! Some really fantastic work for sure. 
 😠 "macOS contains a built-in screen reader called voice over"

OMG SHUT UP! 

context: macOS w... 
 @13f889e9 i can understand that. But, it is a godsend for people like me who need screen readers. I personally dont absolutely have to use one, but it makes life a million times better if i do. 
 If you cashapp me $50 I'll tell you how to get rich on social media. 😁 
 @9ca3db28 can i pay in #Monero? I dont trust corporate owned bs apps to keep me or my data safe. 
 Talk about a shitshow. Our county is getting FEMA assistance to pay for storm debris pickup from tropical storm #idalia earlier this month, but they confused residents on the start dates, the types of debris they would get, and have no idea when they will be in any particular area. Ugh

 @9ca3db28 lol! I just bet so!
