I thought the door to Narnia was in a dresser.

So there is such a thing as too many fans.

Just because a corporation makes something out of greed, doesn't mean it can't be something useful or desirable to the consumer.
If making things red is desirable enough to the consumer, and paying $5 is the only way to do it, he will pay the price.
But so far publishers haven't managed to make SHA256 useful or desirable to consumers, so all that's left for now is the greed.

>expansions broke down into DLCs because it was easier to develop and release small DLC packages, then an expansion. Especially considering the bar for what is an expansion was always pretty high, while DLC didn't have that bar to reach. And for the user it gives the illusion of more content, cause it constantly trickles out.

>removal of LAN happened because of centralized anti-cheat systems and servers became popular and easy to use. And on the developer side, because the centralized server was good enough, they didn't want to spend extra time to include local server capabilities in their games.

>cash shops & pay to win were a lost battle from the start, because of the whales trained through mobile games. But for better or worse, at least in the cosmetic department, it gives more choice to the user, and there are more than enough people that are not bothered by this inclusion.

All in all, previous such battles usually provided something of value to both parties, both publisher and buyer. I'm not sure NFT can do that.
Let's say you buy an NFT item for a WoW clone game. What does it being NFT provide? If the publisher wants you to be able to resell items, they can let you do that without NFT. If the publisher wants you to be able to use your items in other games of theirs, they still can let you do that if they want, even without NFT.

Maybe they'll figure something out eventually, to make NFT technology useful, but any implementation idea I've currently heard of can be done it.

Also, the reason the backlash is so much stronger this time is because anyone with a brain can see that NFTs are basically money laundry.

55. Don't know what Operation Condor is, and I'm pretty bored of this game now. Will end it here tonight. Maybe I'll do more tomorrow.

54. In moderation, it's good. Just don't go full Hitler about it.

53. Fuck all commies.

52. Meninism is a meme. No 1 to 1 exact opposite of feminism actually exists.

51. Not in the mood to say much about feminazism.

50. "Dating age"
Again, not sure what this is about.

49. Body positivity is copium for fat people.

48. I don't find "death of the author" convincing.
If the author said his work meant to say "the sky is blue", I don't give a crap how you want to interpret the work, it's objectively true that the work meant to say "the sky is blue".

But if you can present evidence that "the sky is blue" is inconsistent and self contradictory with the work and other things the author said about his work, then I'm listening. Cause this could be a case of the author changing statements to align to new paradigms. An easy example of this is how the Wachowskis suddenly The Matrix is about being trans.

But without presenting such evidence, that the author had ulterior motives behind his words, "death of the author" doesn't stand imo.

47. Not a fan of any body modification that is meant to be permanent. Only reason tattoos are technically no longer permanent, is cause we've invented painful laser surgery procedures to get rid of them.

46. Transhumanism is kinda similar to human gene editing. I don't really want it, but it's gonna happen eventually.

45. I don't have a formed opinion on rail privatization. I can think of good arguments on both sides.

44. Neopronouns are the mark of a narcissist.

43. Gamergate was the most important social movement of the 2010s, but it failed massively. Anyone who thinks Gamergate won is deluding himself.
