Thanks, pretty good explanation of a way for it to work. I don't see what advantage this implementation offers though (happy to be wrong). The game is checking with Valve to see if I am allowed to play it. I will need Valve to agree

OK, so when the game starts up it needs to see some proof that you own a license for it. So it needs to see proof that you own an NFT. I am not aware of the technical details of various NFTs but I'm going to assume that you prove owne

What is the advantage of an NFT versus a record in Valve's database?

The block rewards issued to miners would be worth 10x as much, so more equipment would be pressed into use for mining, until the expenses of mining roughly equal the current value of the block rewards (plus transaction fees, for the nit pic

So if you wanted to apply the rationing strategy to housing, would high taxes on unoccupied be a way of doing that? I think I have heard of cities (Vancouver?) implementing such taxes.

Sadly the simple act of choosing where to save a file, understanding where that is, and remembering that, is more than many people feel they should need to do. Signing in with an email address and guessing their own password (typically one

Yeah that is a good link; I especially liked the text on page 7. I believe Windows Storage Spaces has long used a similar technique[0] too, though it has been a few years since I was looking into it. I wonder if ZFS DRAID will eventually a

I bought a sailboat and lived on it while traveling up and down the east coast of the USA, and Bahamas. Lots of learning and character development.

Let me guess, they don't align with "strong liberal" views so any controversial part of their past makes them cancel-able ("ban" as you say). I now feel like I will hesitate to submit a Cato article in the future, a

Possibly it would be an incentive that is not aligned with the user's interests. For example, CCC would do anything in their power to get you to buy something so that they get a cut. Whereas a user would maybe be most interested in get

Yes, though it does become a fuzzy line. I believe it would not be advertising to display the next episode of a series, or even auto play it. But it would be advertising to display a different series or film. For a fuzzier one, how about a

Imagine that the jobs you are interested in want to see some k8s experience. Either you teach it to yourself at home or you justify implementing it at your current job (resume driven development basically).

Can confirm, DIY fiber is not too difficult to figure out yourself. For most uses outside of an ISP you don't need the super-low loss that you get with a fusion splicer. When I needed to wire up a campground and some cabins I studied a

For starters, couldn't you have name servers at multiple "places" for your domain? Name servers 1 at Amazon and nameserver 2 at Azure, for example. Shouldn't be too hard to build an abstraction layer that updates them al
