Starlink looks like nonsense... another scheme to drum up hype and increase stock prices. Kinda like the Cyberwhistle, the thing with the car in space, and the flamethrower. Who do I lobby to get fiber to my area??

Starlink is awesome tho. The only problem with Starlink is it should have never been allowed to be proprietary. It should have been a global effort for an open mesh with access rules. That way when China, India, and others want similar services they can add capacity to the existing network instead of what's going to happen now: starlink is going to launch a poo poo ton of satellites, then china is, then amazon might, and we end up with a ton more satellites than we need that don't share coverage.

punishedkissinger posted:Starlink is one of those things where it's better than having no internet but it absolutely will suck. It doesn't compare to any type of good landline. Weather can be an issue, including temperature changes, there are drops in coverage due to the network being incomplete, and it consumes significantly more power than one would expect (up to ~140W which is up to almost $30/mo in some areas, although the average power consumption over a 30 day period is closer to ~$10-$12/mo in even the most expensive areas.) If you're off grid that's a serious concern. It's not really designed for areas with high population density and they're very careful about not over subscribing currently. The strength of starlink is in truly remote locations and for highly mobile things -- the real killer application and why the DoD is one of Starlink's biggest customers. ~40ms latency penalty for stable 100mbps-1gbps on any type of craft and in any location is insane for military applications. For people in truly rural areas with no way to hook into an existing backbone it's also a good option, and they're starting to sell a plan that's designed for one dish in a community that then uses traditional infrastructure to connect an entire community to a backbone they previously didn't really have access to.

Is there anyway to see the secondary sales price of NFTs? I'm mean I know its all recorded on the chain but has anyone seem a link to someone breaking it down. I'm really interested in seeing if anyone who isn't an insider manages to offload their ape or whatever for any significant money. Obviously the token creators make a killing selling the poo poo to the marks, and my impression is that the marks are then just sitting on the NFT they bought waiting for it to be worth $500,000. But, they're getting stolen....who would steal something they couldn't sell? Is the whole point to wait for the crying ape owner to beg for his ape back and offer a reward? So in effect the entire value of the NFT is based on the continuing belief of the owner that it is worth something. If anyone but the owner had possession of it, it would be worth nothing. As with anything in the crypto space searching for actual information is a bloody nightmare if you don't know where to look. The dense forest of shills and hypemen keep all but the strongest out. Edit: From what I read the secondary market is growing and even bigger than the primary market, but even just reading puff pieces and blurb on the coiner websites it reeks of wash trading and bullshit Illuminti fucked around with this message at 22:13 on Feb 4, 2022 |

Remember up until this year (and maybe still idk) you could "sell" your NFT to yourself and not have to report it on taxes or anything, so a lot of NFTs may have been "sold" multiple times where it was just the owner selling to themselves. So effectively there's no good way to track sales

If you can steal it for free you can just sell it for any amount and be up that much minus gas fees - (infinity percent profit) whereas the dipshit who bought it originally paid $10,000 and wouldn't sell it for less than whatever they need for their desired ROI%. Once the steal happens I'm under the impression it's a race between the thief to sell it and the "owner" to complain to exchanges to please flag this thing as stolen. I would bet the thief can win that most of the time You are understanding correctly already - there is no underlying asset and therefore there is no "actual information" to find about its value. Even the image associated with the NFT is not an underlying asset, it's just associated. Thinking about the receipt on the blockchain (the NFT itself) as proof you bought a certain jpg is backwards. It is more accurate that the jpg profile pics of apes are more like "evidence" that you bought a receipt for nothing.

What incentive do the exchanges have to halt the sales of stolen apes? Considering the absolutely “code is law” and “gently caress you got mine” and “it’s your fault you were scammed” attitude NFTs are built upon and all

If opensea doesn’t delist stolen stuff people will realize it’s all a scam and stop buying NFTs. Since their whole business is centralizing NFTs they’re incentivized to make suckers think they care and will take care of them. Since the ecosystem is already centralized on opensea there really is no need for the blockchain at all, they can already effectively say the blockchain is wrong and their jobs would be a lot easier if they just eliminated the blockchain aspect because then they could actually reverse the transactions

Khorne posted:Fiber roll out is cheap as hell to most places and yet it's not there. It sucks!! I've been part of planning some few hundred mile fiber runs at a previous job and the cost is crazy low. I suppose for telco/cable cos the cost is in fighting with local governments, entrenched monopolies, the reality that they haven't even updated phone/cable infrastructure in half a century in many places & don't have anyone on payroll who knows anything about it, etcetc. That's probably intentional. It's no coincidence that these giant satellite constellations, requiring tons of rocket launches to sustain, are mostly being proposed by people involved with rocket companies whose business models require a lot more rocket launches than there's actually demand for.

One thing I don't get about the Metaverse or whatever is, it just looks so crappy- if they're trying to sell people on an alternate reality then shouldn't the graphics be better? Why would anyone want to spend time in a fake world that's less visually interesting or appealing than the real one? Get some loving level design happening here.

Somfin posted:There's a reason Meta's stock is plummeting Apologies if I'm being an idiot by missing an obvious joke, but Meta and "the metaverse" are unrelated. Meta is just what Facebook - the company - rebranded to, since they've been expanding into other things for a while now. Similar to how Google created Alphabet. Meta stock plummeted because their profits failed to meet expectations due to an increase in spending. I'm sure you were probably joking but I've seen a few people confuse the metaverse for somehow being Facebook related, it's not. It's the stupid name that these crypto idiots are giving to their utopian world where crypto rules all and every aspect of our lives somehow lives on a blockchain.
