But wait, if a cryptocurrency becomes State-recognized legal tender doesnā€™t that nullify the libertarian benefit it offers and all true free people must divest themselves of such a currency!? /s

The thread continues:

When AIs invented time travel, they realized that it was the only mechanism that could stop them and that the invention could not be prevented, which is why the first uses were seeding the idea that time travel is dangerous and self-defeating, which resulted in the movie Primer.

Someone made a standard database that allows you to register as the owner for any NFT currently on Opensea. For free. And your claim is exactly as valid as anyone elseā€™s. This should piss off the NFT crowd.

Also if you saw that guy the other day raving about how people who donā€™t buy NFTs wonā€™t understand and their criticisms are meaningless, and you can own art on the very cheap now, good news, Iā€™m now the proud owner of his Avatar.

It was absolutely necessary to say this because even the presence of ALF and a guy in a pig mask in the thumbnail do not seem to indicate in any way that the video will not be actual crypto news.

No sarcasm.

I honestly have no idea whatā€™s going on here. Itā€™s like Poeā€™s Law is in effect, but Iā€™m so far behind on crypto/NFT shenanigans that Iā€™m missing even that.

The NFT world is in shock that ā€œsave asā€ exists.

Tangentially related, the State of Missouri thinks that ā€œView Page Sourceā€ is hacking and anti-vaxxers think asking asking about vaccination states violates HIPPA soā€¦ What a world we live in.
