I was going to use the analogy of a pair of gas powered scissors that you have to pull start the engine on, like a lawn mower, which occasionally lock up but somehow have a cult following of people gushing over them and what other things they might be used to cut, but I like yours.

They're ideologically consistent right up until it involves them losing money, as in like every time they get hacked ever, especially the Etherium DEO hack which led to the entire system being forked into Etherium and "Etherium classic" so the founders could get their money back.

In-person attendees at Parton’s performance will be able to claim a free NFT, while fans streaming the event will be able to receive tokens authenticating their participation. My head hurts... I thought she was meant to be one of the good ones.

Right now the creative industry sees the whole NFT thing as another fad revenue stream waiting to be tapped. Back in the day it’d be pogs, at this point I’m just waiting to see what kind of unholy collab we’ll be seeing from Disney and Taco Bell on that front.

At least I could use and enjoy pogs, and actually own them. NFTs are purely a scam for idiots and grifters grifting each other.

Yeah celebs largely have no clue what NFTs actually are and are just being fed info from their brand managers who are brain poisoned with this stuff. The system of a down guy's example was a good one: https://twitter.com/serjtankian/status/1462921974573793283?s=20&t=xKSRQomtTTkllRYNDFZufQ "Lazy mining" is not a thing so he probably means lazy minting, which is just compression of transactions into batches, but some guy convinced him this is somehow a renewable process.

Carbon negative. Right. They’re paying some other guy who super promises to plant trees to undo the damage their product does, which they wouldn’t have to do if they weren’t doing the NFTs in the first place Wonderful.

Cryptobros believe in the promise of technology. They can see no avenue in which new technology won't win out. Of course they believe that most jobs can and will be automated in X years, where X is a number pulled directly from their rear end. Whose gonna build the robots, dipshit? Or mine the materials to create them? Or design new ones when old ones are obsolete? Or fix them when they break? I know your answer is probably more robots, but please take a second to think about that.

I used to be a big fan of automation, but I've come to realize capitalism's approach of "good enough to make a profit" will never lead to automation that replaces human labor, because you can always supplement with minimum wage workers. And so we get lovely software that does the totally wrong thing 10% of the time, the worst possible thing, and a squad of people with fire extinguishers.

That man has too much forehead and not enough shirt Also reminds me of the time in high school I was walking with my friends and a really nice sports car stopped at a long red light. I leaned against it and posed for a picture that blocked the driver, who started yelling “Hey! Hey!” as we walked away.
