It's not my homophobia. It's my coprophobia.

I gamble very rarely and am fully aware of its expectation value. But when I do gamble I still enjoy it, in the same way I might enjoy an amusement ride. Sure I part with some of my money but it's just the fee for some thrill and entertainment. Roulette can actually be fairly cheap and a nice way of socializing with others.

If you start thinking of it as a way to earn rather than waste your money, you're lost.

The key feature is that there's a mechanism that limits supply. Other than that, value only exists because enough people agree that it has value. Fiat currency is exactly the same in this regard.

I think your questions indicate that you don't have sufficient understanding of how "ordinary" money works. It's just a promise of being able to exchange it for goods & services in the future, and its value hinges on people trusting that promise.

If you've never seen whoever approves the budget for that, you also will not be updating to Java 21
