Yes, I understand how monero works. Yeah you'll get away with buying some groceries or whatever with it, but people who go through bankruptcy (especially who aren't rich, and are felons) have a close eye from the government on their finances. If you try to buy a house or a car or anything actually life changing with that, you're pretty likely to get caught and charged with fraud etc., unless you legitimise it, that is, launder it.

It does if you want to spend it in any meaningful way

Yes, people often/usually drop the g in quick/casual speech, but most regions I have heard do pronounce it when speaking slower or more formally.

In UK/Australia/NZ we pronounce it as written, with the l.

It does, but if it has compromised the BIOS before that, that won't get wiped.

Something can't become categorically imperative, a quiddidity such as an essentially categorical property is invariant with respect to time. It either is or it isn't. Per contra, aesculapian aid might become dispositionally required.

You don't understand why people might more frequently discuss the actions of someone with enormous power and influence, than they would those of Darryl from high school?

Ok, but not every random asshole is the richest guy in the world...

when usually the purpose of a question like that is more like "what was the result when you talked to them?"

But then say that? There's a clear distinction in tone between those two wordings, even if they express similar thoughts.

My knees get really sore and stiff sitting bent for a long time, I need to stand up when I can. I'm not in a rush to get off the plane 95% of the time (unless late for a tight connection obviously) but I can see how it'd look like that.

Yeah, it is also just a philosophy word. But antisemites use it to refer to "dialectical materialism", which is a real term for Marxist philosophy, but by which they mean "cultural Marxism", a thing they made up by which they in turn mean "the Jews are going to impose communism on us through psyops that convince us it is good, so we have to exterminate them."

Basically, like much of their coded language, it is a reference to a conspiracy theory.
