  • If you’re not designing the NFT game around the profit and trading aspect - then the NFT is pointless and you could just make a game with tradeable assets registered to a conventional relational database.

    Aka: What MMO’s, browser social platforms and Steam itself has been doing successfully for more than a decade before NFT’s showed up.

    It’s a technological dead end (in gaming) even without the greed, because the use cas is already done cheaper, simpler and better.



  • The majority of companies who use Slack (over the likes of Teams) are tech-oriented companies made mid last decade.

    Making a Twitter scrapper that pushes to a webhook would take half a day and would cost essentially zero if you just toss it in a random cloud cluster and forget about it. And if you don’t have that scale, then you likely have a team leader somewhere who will run it on a machine of their own out of spite.

    And scrappers are way more wasteful for the target webhost.

    This change hurts literally nobody other than Felon. Good.

    Funny enough, if it is an API problem, then this is one of the scenarios that a scrapper could easily solve the issue and grant accurate results again. A playwright script written by ChatGTP could do it.

    I read reddit with a client that uses a scrapper now. The fuck is reddit gonna do, block Chromium? They said they wanted to stop this, well, congrats, they started it instead.
