It's either this or one of its competitors rises to take them on at some point and we get a bifurcated society where specific companies cater to specific politics. That may be unavoidable anyways. I think people outside the SV bubble (

Anyone surprised. Russia may look like a big scary country on the map, but keep in mind they have roughly the same GDP as the state of FLORIDA. Its why they were once described as a gas station with nukes. The nukes are the only thing re

What was the alternative play out? Don't expand NATO and wait for Russia to come roaring back to life with the same authoritarianism but more money? If anything these recent aggression towards Ukraine should drive other countries on i

Exactly correct. Anyone who is applauding this, just imagine the opposite political party in power using this against you or organizations you support. This is why no one should have been happy when executive orders became the norm in the

What were the alarmist claims that didn't actually pan out?

LMAO. I really think these fusion people just need more money. MIT wants to build their SPARC reactor prototype, which will make ITER look stupidly large and expensive, but they need $40 Billion. I dream of the future of SpaceX fusion powe

Boy is this me. Funny enough, my wife and I are looking to downsize so we can buy a second house in another part of the US because of exactly this. Basically one small house on the coast, one small house in the mountains. When things get

Does anyone else who is following the FLCCC/Ivermectin/Peter McCullough story find it ironic that they would use this as an example of something we can believe the "experts" on? Japan, India, and a growing list of countr

Just a reminder that Bret Weinstein and crew once again predicted the exact nature of the leak, including citing Peter Daszak involvement, a full 6 MONTHS before the lab leak theory started to go from conspiracy theory to mainstream : http

Not a breakthrough, just a milestone. Yet again they cite the "20 years out" which has become a joke among anyone that follows fusion research. There is really nothing to see in this article, move along.

Sorry WP, too little too late. I don't think the "mainstream" has fully caught on yet, but all those disaffected men are getting nothing from these empty "we see there's a problem" articles and empty half-ackno

Why not set this up like Klima DAO which is doing something similar with carbon credits? This gives people an actual monetary incentive to buy and hold earth: the massive APY: https://www.klimadao.finance I would have started w

I would think that some enterprising university could get the funds to set up an automated system with AI to recognize and shoot near the birds at a distance. Some decent learning in optics and AI to be had there. Sure that guy would lose

If they mandate we all take the latest and greatest anti-viral cocktail daily or even weekly, fresh out the Merck/Pfizer lab, would we all be onboard with that also? You see the legal precedent that have been set here because "ju

Its the wild west baby! The same can be said with crypto currency development, yet some are willing to take the risk, endure the nightmare and press forward. It's never perfect. It can make you rich and simultaneously hated. Those w

Exactly! All the counter arguments of "but I can already do that with a database" and "why would any developer want to maintain such a clunky system" miss all the avenues NFT's unlock for gaming for those developer

by noetic_techy 5y ago
I dont think you need to support multiple games, but a dev with a similar game could say that some other NFT from some other competitor game will unlock equivalent items in my game, so come on over and jump ship! Competition of eyeballs.

I think those who wall off their garden rather then make their NFT's open and tradable with other games on a larger market will lose. I can't trade my Nintendo unique items for a a ship in Eve Online. A dev could even play the c

Gambing is gambling. Nothing to say there. I think good devs will try to balance that pay to win aspect out. If me and my guild get together for a day long slog into level 50 of some dungeon for a guaranteed rare NFT loot drop worth $10,0

by noetic_techy 5y ago
You could easily say your NFT will unlock an equivalent in my come, jump ship and give me your eyeballs! True, but then again that may have to factor into the price. A game like Eve has been running for years, if not more then a decade. T

That was mostly a walled garden trading something in 1 game for fiat. I think building your NFT on a platform that allows you to essentially escape that in game asset and let it accrue value and be tradable to assets in other games is the

Can you trade the hats for a pets in another game using the same NFT market? Is the hat unique enough to accrue value?
23.
by noetic_techy 5y ago
If the developer was smart, he would build the NFT on an existing market place so as NOT to have control over its price, and in a sense de-centralizing it (even though all currencies have a foundation group pulling the levers at their core)

by noetic_techy 5y ago
The keys to your unique ship (possibly with randomly generated attributes) don't accrue in value the more its traded. I see your point, but I don't think anyone getting into NFT gaming is going to care about the centralized nature

All those poo-pooing NFT's will miss NFT gaming and gambling like a freight train to the face. Reading the comments, I see too many people focused on the art aspect (of course this is OP's articles focus). NFT's applied to a

I think NFT's applied to art make only nominal sense. I myself had to come to the realization that NFT's are really just flexing for the rich, because as anyone realizes, right-click save-as is all you need to have the art too, ju

Awesome comment. Took me a bit to realize it was the emperor has no clothing. I think NFT's applied to art make only nominal sense, and I assume that's what you were going for. I myself had to come to the realization that NFT&#

Nuclear in the short term, Fusion or Thorium reactors long term should be the goal. Get MIT's Spark reactor funded and built and lets hurry up and finish ITER, while we prototype Thorium in some medium sized cities. High density power

First let me just say I hear you loud and clear. I think you might be reading into my position more then I intended. My responses: 1: I agree. You really have to dig deep. 2: I agree. But you can at least assess risk vs other vaccines. 3
