Dunno what’s wrong with your shit, but it looks fine from here.

“I’M A VAMPIRE! I’M A VAMPIRE!”

truly remarkable cinematic masterpieces that he’s created over the years.

The average death age of any empire is 250 years.

Tick tock America. You’re proving that figure to be correct.

I wanna pet that dog!

How dare you encourage my wife to be an independent person and have her own thoughts!

Oh Jesus.

Anyone have some valid Stargate addresses? I’m done with this stupid planet.

I think this is the first time I’ve seen a still picture move this much.

Hot damned.

It’ll snuggle you for the rest of your life.

Agreed.

The people that voted for this shit have the biggest blinders on right now. I’m sure they’re trying to ignore that anything has gone wrong.

I hope someone with enough money to make this a problem for the policy makers gets after this in court soon. The USA needs to either pass a federal law stating that abortion is legal, or they need a new roe v. Wade judgement on the books. Until one of those things happens, this continual and unnecessary loss of life will continue; it is inevitable.

For people who call themselves “pro-life” they sure don’t give any shits about people continuing to live.

Anyone who is anti abortion, this is for you: 🖕

I’m not going to defend Ubisoft here.

I will make a comment about NFCs. Basically, if you’re trying to validate a set number of items in a digital market, NFTs are not the worst way to do it. In the context of a video game, it would be that you have the NFT for, let’s say, a limited character skin, associated to your game profile/account/whatever. As long as that token is attached to your account, you get access to that skin. If you trade it out, you lose access to that skin in the game… As an example.

NFTs would accomplish that goal, while being (at least in theory) decentralized, and in theory it’s immune to errors and exploitation.

All of that being said: there are much better ways to accomplish the same with less. Any blockchain, by its very nature, will eventually become a slow, unmanageable mess because anything written to the ledger is immutable. So the ledger will continue to grow and grow and grow until it’s so large that it’s unmanageable, slow as shit, and just garbage to try to use/work with.

For shit like digital art or whatever, NFTs make even less sense. All you’re actually buying is essentially a receipt that you paid money to someone for the receipt. It’s a lot like going to a store to buy air. You pay for it, get your receipt and now you “own” some air. The only thing that proves you “own” air, is the receipt. If you lose the receipt, oh well, you can’t prove you “own” the air anymore, but you’re still 100% able to use the air, to fill your lungs, and breathe for another day, whether you “own” it or not.

The only difference with a “web3” game is that owning the NFT may give you access to stuff inside the game that you otherwise wouldn’t have.

Great in concept, horrible in practice.

I think when the hype dies down in a few years, we’ll settle into a couple of useful applications for ML/AI, and a lot will be just thrown out.

I have no idea what will be kept and what will be tossed but I’m betting there will be more tossed than kept.

Wait… It’s how much? For online access?

And others are more??

I’m a dedicated PC gamer, so I’m out of the loop on what’s happening with consoles, but this seems nuts to me

Upvote for bitwarden. I love that service.

I especially love that you can host it yourself if you want. I don’t do that right now, but I did in the past for a work thing. It’s great.

I got Yt premium as a side effect of the Google one thing. I don’t necessarily need the extra space I got the Google one thing for, but I’ll probably keep it because I’m too lazy to clear out my storage and the side perks like Yt premium are probably worth more than I’m spending on one.

Oh, I know it’s all a show.

I know how badly they’re usually contaminated.

Let me lie to myself.

I should do this too. By and large there’s no reason to keep paper around anymore.

What do you do for backups?

I know cross contamination very well.

I trust non-sterile gloves over supposedly “washed” hands, every day of the week.

The number of people that use the toilet without washing, or even rinsing their hands afterwards is insanely high. People are disgusting.

Simply put, I don’t trust fast food gloves to be sterile, never said I did. I just think they’re likely to be cleaner than the unwashed hands inside of them.

Yes, they’re likely cross contaminated, but by the time I’m accepting the risk of having someone else prepare my next meal, i want to reduce the harm they can do to me as much as I can.

Cross contaminated gloves are going to be less harmful than the hands that contaminated them.

Have you met people? They’re not sanitary.

That’s enough internet for me.

Good night everyone.
