One of those tweets implied that the slurp juices have different rarity levels so I think they've already made some progress on this.

last night i watched a live stream of an animator working on a cartoon, who was saying he was making NFTs of his animations (as .gifs) and said they were cool because it's a way to support your favorite artists (as an alternative to buying commissions) and making it easier to save content since sites like Twitter don't let you save gifs, etc. Basically was saying "it's great if you buy my NFTs, but also cool if you just save the file" and in that moment it blew my mind that NFTs could be a really good thing if they weren't bastardized by rich people.

Ok, but the NFT confers exactly as much "ownership" as the artist adding "(bought by teen phone cutie)" to the description of the image on DeviantArt or whatever, while being insanely inefficient at doing so. E: like an NFT is literally just a JSON file stored on the blockchain that says "[your user ID here] owns [URL of image here]". It doesn't even guarantee that the URL is valid, or points to the thing you "bought", and it has no legal force. And it costs an absolutely bonkers huge amount of computational power (and thus energy) to create. ToxicFrog has a new favorite as of 20:44 on May 4, 2022 |

whatever man i'm not dying on this hill i'm just saying if _some_ NFTs (there are clean NFTs I guess?) cost as much processing power as making an account on patreon and submitting a form to pay an artist, then it would just be another vehicle of doing the same thing. NFTs are dumb tho teen phone cutie has a new favorite as of 20:50 on May 4, 2022 |

Used to be if you appreciated an artist who put their work out for free, you could just send them money via paypal or whatever. Dunno if that ever worked but Patreon also exists now.

There is already a system in place for hundreds of years for transferring ownership of creative works. It's called "copyright." If you want to buy an image from a creator, you can "license" it by just having you and they agree to do so for a particular sum of money. this is even common to do on the internet already, they're called "commissions." alternately if you just want to give a creator money to support their work, but don't need ownership of something in return, you can "donate" to them. "oh, but the blockchain allows you to verify who owns it independently, without taking the owner's word for it." yeah we have that already, too. it's called a "contract," a document where the ownership is communicated through "writing." tech bros will never stop reinventing simple things but making them more complicated by putting tech jargon on top of the underlying concept.

Coincidentally, my work currently actually touches on this topic, specifically on how to digitally express what sort of usage rights and conditions are attached to a particular piece of digital data in a legally meaningful way, and how to store, transmit, and verify that data automatically without constant human oversight. Long story short, it involves a whole shitload of carefully designed formats and standards and certification processes every step of the way. It's a complex topic with lots of problems to solve. Then NFTs came along, looked at that, and didn't try to solve any of those problems. Hell, they don't even seem to be aware of them. It's like you're trying to figure out how to fix a broken-down car, and then somebody comes along and tells you "just make the wheels spin!".

Yeah, but that's insane, because you don't actually "own" anything. Donate to their Patreon or actually buy their art. And, again NFTs (like everything on the block chain) have huge environmental costs.
