We don't know that the universe is infinite. Also, even if space was infinite, that doesn't mean that low-entropy energy/matter (to extract energy/work from) is also infinite.

I believe he said the wealther you got, the bigger burden you owe to athens, because without Athens you wouldn't have gotten rich, and we want there to be rich people in the future in athens as well.

Do you really randomly poking some electrodes into your brain tissue is going to give you enough fidelity to query google. That's all it is, you know. Some wires, randomly placed in tissue. The cells around those wires don't kn

The actual interactions seem rather limited. Rotations, translations, associations. not sure how much fidelity that actually gives you. How many problems can you actually solve with that?

Scarcity of precisely what is the question. In this case, a small amount of metadata. That metadata is inherently worthless, because the metadata is just information that can be copied, and a new supposedly "scarce" token can be

I realize now that calling it an edition was an error on my part, because in irl an edition is a physical copy of the work itself which can be made scarce, whereas a token is just a pointer with a url to some infinitely-duplicable bits, so

An NFT does not solve or prevent the artist from selling additional editions of their work. They can always create more tokens.

please show me all the tokens on openseas that are licenses that grant commercial distribution rights.

> tokens of ownership They are not even "tokens of ownership"; they're just tokens that one owns , nothing more, but the semantic distinction here is significant, because a token cannot own anything outside of itself.

> Even though it's not physical, it's exactly like owning a baseball card or a work of art. you're confused. You don't own anything with an NFT other than a pointer. so it's not like owning a work of art at all.

even with art, an NFT doesn't confer copyright rights, so you don't even own the art. > But as it turns out, you can make digital things scarce, through cryptography. The art isn't stored on-chain, so it's not scarce

well, the orion image you linked doesn't look like it's been over-sharpened, in contrast to the OP image. I'm not saying there's a way to tell just by eyeballing it, but that's what it smells like.

It can be true that it's both based on real data and that there is an aggressive amount of post-sharpening applied.
