    I still think NFTs could be useful in some capacity in the digital world. But 99.9% of people used NFTs and shit coins as a get rich quick scheme which has fully imploded at this point. The bottom fell out of the pyramid.

     

    I actually work in that field and the vast majority of people who do are glad the NFT fad is over and they can develop real use cases for them now. Concert ticketing to where if the ticket gets resold the artist gets another cut will likely be one of the first big things from NFT's. However I've also heard discussions of using them for medical documents/legal documents, music where the creators get a cut if it is resold and many other things. I'm interested in using them for gaming in a way that can support a game long term financially that makes the player and the company money.

    Hasn't the Democratic Party always been supportive of Israel? Israel is considered an ally same as any other ally, I always thought.

     

    I'm supportive of a ceasefire in the Middle East considering the difference in lives lost between the original terrorist attack and the response since then; many innocent Palestinian civilans are dead now and didn't have to be by many times the number of innocent Israeali who died and didn't have to. And I've been reading there's been progress in that direction.

     

    But I don't know if I'd be on-board with not supporting Israel after the Hamas attack considering it was a terrorist attack through and through. I have Jewish friends who are pro-Israel who were also pro-Black Lives Matter and they were stunned and outraged with BLM Chicago posted the pro-Hamas picture with the people parachuting in. 

     

    Sending them money and Biden going over there is more than just token support. They don't need our help to continue their genocide. The attack on the White House was a terrorist attack should we kill all Republicans? Not all Palestinians are Hamas.

    My idiot friend in 2016 voted for Jill Stein. 

    Jill Stein didn't become president.

     

    Did you have idiot friends who voted for Hillary Clinton? 

     

    Hillary Clinton didn't become president.

    Post-election analysis from Chuck Todd:

     

    WWW.NBCNEWS.COM

    Analysis: Tuesday's election results once again showed how Republicans are struggling on abortion. But they didn't erase Democrats' problems, either.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    The part below is a REALLY salient point and one that I thoroughly agree with!

     

     

    A good place to start with this type of "exposure" campaign would be to have a Town Hall-style meeting in somewhere like Michigan with Middle Eastern/Islamic Americans who feel abandoned/alienated by his administration's seemingly  unconditional support of Israel's military actions in Gaza.  Yeah, it will be rough for him, but that's the type of atmosphere he needs to engage with to start to mitigate the concerns about his age.

     

    Honestly the unconditional support for Israel has made me decided to vote third party again in the next election. Fuck the Dems and Republicans.

    Rewatching some Fincher, and so far my previous opinions have held fast.

     

    Zodiac has moments of excellent, but is broadly overrated. Social Network is one of my favorite films from the decade. Gone Girl is excellent, Alien 3 still fails to impress. The Game is Meh, but Fight Club is great. Haven’t gotten around to revisiting Mank, Se7ven, or Girl With the Dragon tattoo, but there is still time this week.

     

    I liked The Game but pretty sure I watched it enhanced :epilepsy:

    I'm watching this show on Netflix called "Why didn't I tell you a million times?" and the guy on the show makes a hamburger steak that looks really good. :p

     

    Texas Roadhouse has a really good hamburger steak.

    I suspect we see Call of Duty move to an every two year release schedule and some of those developers get to work on other IP's to avoid CoD consumer burnout (and also because they won't have to release the non-CoD games on other systems). Would be great if they got the license to release the High Moon Transformer games on Gamepass and for fucks sakes let Vicarious Visions do their own thing again.

    I actually wouldn’t mind getting one if they go down in price some time after release. Would be the best for ds emulation, but a bit expensive for that out the gate.

     

    That is exactly what I'm thinking :twothumbsup:
