Just one review of a mid sized code repo blows through 15% of the weekly limit (max account). I do not expect to be able to create meaningful work with this model.

The new releases this week baited me into business ultra subscription. Sadly it’s totally useless for gemini 3 cli and now also nano banana does not work. Just wow.

I am paying for AI ultra - no idea how to use it in the CLI. It says i dont‘t have access. The google admin/payment backend is pure evil. What a mess.

And annoying it is. I'm not on the side of Apple here, but also question the way regulators work, because lately the outcome of IT-regulation in some cases seems to be a net negative for citizens.

The EU gave Apple an argument to kill PWAs (because the investment to support them is not worth it for them), while Apple does not like PWAs anyways. Bad for the citizens of the EU.

No denying that, but the objective outcome is bad.

Regardless of who is the bad guy here, the outcome of this is just devastating for the free web. For me the future trajectory of Apps were PWAs, which worked reasonably well lately. As small company, creating one App that works everywhere a

Only if it‘s comfortable to wear and not sickening. It must be a huge improvement over current devices like PS VR2, which I can physically not tolerate for long.

"Nothing" is not true. Many in failed states are using it.

I went to school in Austria in the 80s/90s. The anti-nuclear stance was a big part of education (I assume similar to Germany). We had to read stories like Die Wolke (The Cloud) and were terrified and somehow traumatized in a young age.

A neutral, permissionless currency adds value.

Bitcoin is anchored in physics and math. And used by millions without western privileges.

But the NFT should be independent of the game and exists elsewhere. The game company can integrate it - or not.

by mantenpanther 5y ago
Because of ownership and the idea of digital property. In a MySQL the provider owns all data, with an NFT the key holder owns the data.

Nothing, this wouldn't make sense.

Being technically a verifiable signature, this brings new incentives for users (emotions, possibly valuable) and devs (monetary, user base) which might change the game. But I agree, until we see more advanced intermediary-platforms only the

Valid points, time will tell. I can image there will be neutral intermediate services (NFT-platforms) that provide assets and smart contracts/APIs for integration for small fees.
21.
by mantenpanther 5y ago
NFTs don't have to be (are not) the asset, just parameters/stats and the graphical representations can look different according to the game.
22.
by mantenpanther 5y ago
The NFTs might be independent of the game, maybe just exist as data structure on a neutral NFT smart contract with an existing network effect/reputation.
23.
by mantenpanther 5y ago
There might be many, this is a new field. A starter would be an existing userbase holding NFTs that enter the game. Different forms of monetarization (entering with NFTs, storing progress on the NFTs, marketplaces,...) might be a thing.

by mantenpanther 5y ago
NFTs in the current form might be pretty useless as such (just a proof you "first purchased" a jpeg). But I think in the gaming space this will become huge and actually makes sense - use elements (items, characters, stats,...) and

Using fear constantly is the most powerful tool to influence people, this became really clear to me the last 18 months. I hope politicians and media will get down to a more rational style of communicating, but I'm not too optimistic ab

I always thought of Australia as an open and freedom loving country and planned to visit sometime. But what I'm reading in the (European) news the last months regarding all kinds of crackdowns on individual freedom sounds really bad an

That‘s a simple and too narrow take. In my area (mountains) it makes a lot of sense to cultivate cattle.
