But Blockchain specifically is an old technology, as much as database as it is in cryptography. I'm not as quick to dismiss it as the thread because several bad technological ideas are the entire basis of huge amounts of enterprise computing. But lmao at well you can't say it won't be an innovation in the future because buddy, everything can be with that optimism.

Can you please give me an example of a couple of these bad technological ideas? This sounds like a really interesting subject.

Have there been enough prominent rug pulls yet to enable me to mint a line of rug pull NFTs? Initial value based on how much they got away with, of course.

Semantically, "you" is both singular and plural, though syntactically it is always plural. It always takes a verb form that originally marked the word as plural.

Also, there is no plural when the context is an argument with an individual rather than a group. Somfin shouldn't put words in my mouth.

It’s a phrase, it’s just the incorrect one.

From your link: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audentes_Fortuna_Iuvat

“Fortune favors the bold.”

Audentes - plural accusative of audens, daring, risky or bold.

Brave ain’t got nothing to do with it. :colbert:

Anthropomorphic rugs would be sweet, less emphasis on teeth more of a toothless mouth to throw the sleuths off the trail until they realize I'm paying homage to Phil Hands, known racist cartoonist, that frequently leaves the calling card of depicting minorities without teeth.

“Own receipts pointing to the NFT scam that hosed you out of actual money” is the most NFT thing I’ve read in a long time. You’re a genius, JohnCompany, and you have a future as an NFT God.

What happens if someone sends something deeply problematic up into the blockchain? Would the authorities have any recourse to delete it or would it be a matter of charging everyone running the chain with possession?

one of the bitcoin forks, Bitcoin SV, is used for storing files onchain and has literal child porn stored in it. seems like the strategy is to just stick their heads in the sand and pretend it doesn't exist
