@icedquinn worse than that.. if you look at harris most of her credentials involve oppressing minorities and women.

@icedquinn It bugs me on so many levels how all the minority representatives tend to be the shittiest... now don't get me wrong I dont think for a second minorities make shittier politicians, in fact they probably would do as well or better than whites on many issues since they represent more diversity in thought.

What I think is happening is the democrats are so quick to vote for anyone who is a minority simply for being a minority, that we get the shittiest ones just slipping through as long as they can get on a ballot. Its a shame because it is also so counter to the agenda of lifting up minorities as it makes it look like they represent minorities when in fact there are way better choices out there that just dont get screen time to make it to the top..

Omar is shit, AoC is shit, and Harris is an atrocity... I want to see minorities in leadership roles, but I also want them to be the best of the best, not the worst of the worst.

@Flyby777 I have no idea what you are even talking about with 95% population whatever. This is about immigration.

Today i made from scratch some spicy wild fried rice, super healthy. 8 oz wild rice, 8 oz wild salmon, 2 eggs, and 6 jalapenos, one long hot, 2 huge shitake, and some white mushrooms, and a green pepper. For flavor i used mochi curry, soy sauce, and mijn rice wine.

I ate half and saved the rest for tomorrow.

@swiley Why not, you can do anything by hand if you are dedicated enough.. that said you'd never mine an actual bitcoin doing it by hand.

@retiolus No very different purposes as far as I know, though I know way less about Noia and might have some details wrong.

Noia as I understand it facilitates data/packet routing, I think they envision one day replacing the IPv4/6 protocol for routing packets around the internet.. at least thats what I understand of it from investing all of 30 seconds into looking into them in the past, I could be way off.

StorJ however is a distributed file storage system and crypto token. It is similar to Filecoin but instead of being its own cryptocurrency it is an Ethereum token (which act similar to being its own cryptocurrency but is effectively a side-chain on the ethereum chain).

@stux I mean, we get the same shit about our politicians when it happens. Like Bernie takes public transit and everyone looses their shit over that posting picture of him when he does it.

@stux Indeed, though it seems weird they are a deep-water squid. If we are talking super deep, like where there is no light, im not sure it makes a difference.

That said I do know of fish that employ this technique and they are not deep-water.

@stux well thats one way to camoflauge I suppose, just stop existing all together.

@pthenq1 Well the cryptocoin that backs it seems to have good support. The website seems to be very professional with lots of docs. There also seems to be a lot of users who have had success with it.

So it works, whether it is profitable or worth the investment I dont really know.

I am debating setting up a 100TB STORJ node....

@lucifargundam Just like dAPPs in general if you dont verify the code and process and ensure its something you can trust on a per-ERC20 token basis then you can get screwed over.. NFTs are nothing special other than a tokens are not interchangable, thats it. There is no greater risk.

If a trusted art gallery lets you buy a piece of art from their main webpage using Ether, and awards you an NFT which you can use to redeem your art in person (or have it shipped and redeemed over the internet) then there is no more or less reason to trust that then paying with a bank transfer. Inverse is true if you buy a painting from an unrecognized "dealer" on a backwater page that is shady as fuck, you can just as easily get screwed over with an NFT as you could buying it with a bank transfer.

And again you have all the same concerns with ERC20 tokens if the system or project it is backing is bullshit.

@lucifargundam Pretty much, and frankly I dont have much confidence in the ability to sell the NFT either.. dont get me wrong NFT can be a valuable investment, but this like many NFT applications is just a money hole.

@lucifargundam Well I agree it is better just on the basis that the crypto tomagochi is a horrible and brilliant idea.. its basically pay-to-play game without the play :)

@lucifargundam I've seen this, and while its cool unless im mistaken it really isnt a tamagoochi in the sense that you have to feed it and take care of it (though I think it does grow over time).

@coolboymew I wouldnt shame a person for playing on easy.. but come on.. if your on twitch your trying to actually do something worth watching.. Dont bother broadcasting it if your just going to d a mindless run through on easy.

@skyblond Scene graphs are fun but they are more about manipulating the higher level objects. Obviously there are ways to draw circles too, but thats not really where the scenegraph aspect is helping you (though it is helpful about manipulating that circle in the scene, moving it and such).

@louiscouture neither of which are valid arguments.. Linux has windows-like front ends that look much like mac and windows, no need to run a command line to do anything, you have a menu bar with ll your programs just as youd expect.

You can also run windows software just fine most of the time with wine, though its very rarely needed. For example as of sometime in march from what I've read Adobe Connect is now supporting in linux.

@louiscouture

Linux is the only way!
