I love the the intangible idea of web 2.0 still offered many tangible technologies that benefitted people. Going from old school HTML stuff to the wave of PHP, CSS, and then even more advanced and beneficial stuff. But web 3.0 is apparently a new wave because of a tech that offers no tangible benefit at large, no one cares to learn how to use, and suffers at making a point of what it actually does and can be used for. This is the future people.

They’re just doing what all great capitalists do: gently caress over the little guy and hope your lawyers can drag out a lawsuit longer than the other guy can afford.

As far as I can see Web 3 so far consists of creating artificial scarcity to monetise digital assets while we all gently caress around in Zuckerbergs poo poo Second Life reboot , unless I’ve missed something.

If anyone needs a decent explainer for both how crypto and NFTs work and also how they’re dumb to send to relatives and other non-tech folks, this is pretty decent and not too technical.

Also it's been a branding technique since at least the Holy Roman Empire to proclaim your particular thing to be a successor to a thing people like, regardless of whether or not it actually is.

"We've invented a magical digital place where anything a 3d designer and programmer can imagine we can pipe directly into your eyeballs stereographically. Once it exists there is no limit to the duplication. If the real world is not yet post scarcity, the digital world surely is." "Ok, but how do I own things there?"

I’m pretty sure someone already is selling passages from the Bible NFTs. Well to be more specific a hyperlink to a text file with a bible passage.

Yeah, but then you get a question of which books to include in the Bible NFT, and before you know it, there's another Crypto-Reformation.

One of the more common things I’ve seen in the last 3 years is young people coming into money from dead people, trusts, or their parents just giving them money/jobs and then instantly wanting to turn that money into crypto poo poo. It’s like they think money is old-fashioned idiot stuff, and fake money you can’t use is the future. Even though money-money is bankrolling their entire everything and the fake money isn’t convertible. So I’m not surprised if the kids managing his estate want to string up the corpse of their grandpa like a puppet to promote NFT poo poo. There is no limit to the absurdity and stupidity of crypto people. It is completely limitless, and they all 100% are convinced without any doubt that they will be incredibly rich because of it. Recently I was at a dinner recently and a financial advisor friend of mine very earnestly told a friend’s boyfriend (25 or so) that he absolutely should not do anything with cryptocurrencies ever, he will lose money on it and he needs to get away from it. The guy just laughed an unsettling amount, all alone, for like 30 seconds straight and everyone at the dinner stared at him wide-eyed as it was apparent this guy was clearly going through a breakdown or crisis of some sort. After the laughing faded out and everyone was basically horrified, he pulled his phone out and said he just bought $10,000 of bitcoin and then left rather abruptly. Like, these people are loving broken. I don’t know what to say further, but they are absolutely broken.

This is a trend I feel like I'm noticing a lot. Actual people experienced long-term in finance know things about volatility, pump-and-dump, and bubbles, and so either keep crypto at a distance or at most dip a toe in it and pay close attention to its volatility. Young people and internet-poisoned people doing Baby's first investment, meanwhile, treat Crypto like a magic money-printing machine, becoming near-perfect marks. Even the Libertarians I know, who have more favorable views than most on cryptocurrency, keep investing in crypto at a distance, at least as far as I know. If Wall Street is good at anything, it's grinding up the gullible, the zealous, and the stupid into financial sausage.

I sell it for $50. Disney sues me. I reject any and all attempts at a settlement out of court because I know I will lose and it will create a precedent against my posting enemies. I make it go to trial. I lose. I appeal -- with the full intent of losing again -- and lose again at trial. I appeal again and either get denied without merit or lose again at trial ad nauseum. Is this allowed? Am I allowed to bring a case that I want to intentionally lose in order to burn down someone else's house?
