natanael,

There’s no point in using NFT for that.

What assets are games going to allow you to import? Just anything?

Or only from authorized issuers (like the original game dev and authorized artists)? If so then you have no real place for NFT, you already have Steam marketplace and equivalent where the game dev sets up or integrates with an online marketplace.

Want transparency in the marketplace? Use transparency logs, not blockchains.

If you’re allowing literally any NFT then this is no different from allowing people to import arbitrary assets, with the sole difference that some have a digital receipt attached.

Blockchains are really only useful for certain coordination problems among mutually untrusting parties who can’t find a common trusted 3rd party. For most game devs that trusted 3rd party is Steam marketplace. It’s really only if you want to share assets in both directions between specific games from specific other developers AND want to make them exclusive / player owned AND don’t trust marketplaces like Steam, that it MIGHT be relevant to investigate if a blockchain solution fits.

natanael,

You can’t cap resale prices with technological limits because payment can be split between multiple channels before the seller transfers ownership.

natanael,

Not sure you know what the token part of NFT means. Usually it’s the non fungible part, so congrats on being uniquely wrong.

In case you're mad at yourself for closing your precious window with all the right tabs opened, note that Firefox allows to reopen recently closed windows (jlai.lu)

I generally have a “home” Firefox window with my most used tabs pinned. Sometimes I close it before another window, so I was frustrated to “lose” it and having to redo my pins. But recently I discovered this feature. Joy!

natanael,

Force kill it, lol

natanael,

The key based (and content addressing based) thing is what bluesky is building. They’re starting of with Twitterish microblogging, but there’s people building forums on top the protocol too. Federated, of course.

natanael,

I’ve got similar ideas, but not entirely the same.

What you call communities would be closer to what I would call content sources / repositories (host servers) plus topic tags. Then instead of consensus (because that’s too hard to automate with decent quality results) you’d have communities formed by subscribing to “curation feeds” which pull submissions and comment from all over the network in a similar style.

This would let you easily crosspost and comment to multiple related communities in a network, as well as to yeet bad mods/curators without losing any content or splitting the community (just create a new curation feed and get people to switch). You could similarly choose to have your client mix comment from multiple curation feeds (similar to “multireddits” on reddit).

natanael,

As a midpoint there’s things you can do like “2/3 consensus of X, Y and Z’s submission selections on topics ABC”, then defining that as it’s own feed people can subscribe to.

But it gets complicated to mix and match when different subcommunities have very different local cultures.

natanael,

Or more digital design for tweaks and simulations, waiting to validate against the prototype when it came back

natanael,

They don’t want to think about safety

natanael,

Yes, Windows program API emulation on top of x86 processor architecture emulation

natanael,

Technically, same until just before then, unless everybody responds very quickly and joins the line in order with no issue

Maker of Chrome extension with 300,000+ users tells of constant pressure to sell out (www.theregister.com)

“Actors who are asking me to add some tracking code are mostly interested in reselling users’ data,” Anashkin said. “Actors who want to purchase it outright will stuff it with malware depending on their level of greed: hijacking affiliate links, tampering with search results, showing popups with shady websites, etc.”...

natanael,

Not all transfers include “non competes”

natanael,

It got confused by the glitter thingy which ended up being placed right over that line, so it stopped continuing the line. The ML models literally have an object permanence memory problem, except defined over geometric patterns instead of over time.

natanael, (edited )

Like when a comedian tries to much mock somebody else and the jokes are so stupid everybody’s just laughing at the comedian

natanael,

They already did that recently in that comic for kids

natanael,

As long as the protocol on the device allows it you can just mod the app to do it quicker

natanael,

Almost no musician makes any substantial money from music sales. Like at all, it’s genuinely extremely rare. Most makes more money from touring and merch.

natanael,

Mildly off topic but years ago I bought a cheap Microsoft Miracast receiver. Tried using it some dozen times with various phones and with my PC and it never worked. HOWEVER this month I got a new phone and NOW it works with that phone, lol (the device itself hasn’t been updated, and both my current and previous phones are Sony). Guessing it’s some compatibility thing in the Linux drivers shipped on the phone. But weird that no other device of mine has been able to cast to it before, including some Windows computers.

What we need is a Miracast 2 which does the Chromecast thing of offering a remote controlled browser engine, but open.

natanael,

This has already been done over wireless ADB and more if you just want mirroring. For content aware casting we essentially just have DLNA derivatives and nothing better.

natanael,

Learn how defederation works

natanael,

I guess I should switch servers then

natanael,

Do you think you’ll stay federated?

natanael,

Your leader likes defenestrating people

natanael,

I don’t mind leftists, but I do mind genocide defenders like you.

natanael,

You’re not leftists, you defend genocide and roleplay leftism

natanael,

If you think Russia isn’t going genocide then you can’t be helped

natanael,

If they’re going to be that stupid I’m not staying on the instance

natanael,

You’re supporting policies and actions that lead to genocide. Either you’re dumb or you’re malicious.

natanael,

You’re promoting an end to the war that involves allowing Russia to complete its genocide. There’s no peace talks to be had, Russia just have to leave.

natanael,

I see you watched Rat Race

natanael,

Depends, your instance will cache content already retrieved but you’ll get errors when trying to interact or load updates. The same server instance talks both to clients and other servers.

natanael,

Do you want to post on bluesky too? Hah. Have invites to spare, DM if interested

natanael,

Only for people I know, though

natanael,

Gotta follow some more people

USB-C confirmed for the iPhone 15 in new leaked images - Macworld (www.macworld.com)

We’ve known that the iPhone is switching to USB-C for a while now, but there was always a possibility that Apple would stick with Lightning for one more year. Based on the latest leaked images, however, Apple is all-in on USB-C for the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro models, with USB-C parts for the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, and...

natanael,

But that still won’t affect 3rd party accessories other than just chargers.

natanael,

How about you find some non-bullshit reason to criticize the dude instead of unscientific nonsense? There’s plenty of factual reasons yet nobody actually wants to use logic

Why does “come here” bother me so much?

Ok, I have no idea why this bothers me and I don’t even know what to call it. My husband is a “come here” guy. Something he thinks is interesting and wants to show me - hey, come here! Nuclear apocalypse - hey, come here! Why the hell wont he just tell me why he wants me to get up, trudge to wherever he is, so that he can...

natanael,

How about asking him to come to you instead each time? Or try to find some other way to help him break the habit. Don’t let yourself get too worked up about it.

natanael,

HN is to other forums what mathematicians are too the rest of science

natanael,

Only to somebody who didn’t know about the choice being made!

natanael,

Md4…? Uh, even MD5 has been considered bad for literally decades
