I finally took the "web3/NFT" plunge with an investment, because that's what it is. And I'm pleased with the project that I chose, even if it progresses to 0 my return is already obscene multiples :) Most importantly, I plan to carve out a name for myself in the space by offering a healthy degree of establishment "skepticism" although I prefer the term "realism". There is absolutely no way that the "metaverse land" opportunity pans out to achieve the success current prices would imply. Some of those folks have their head in the sand(box). Am I the only person who remembers when SecondLife was a "must have" digital real estate land for companies?
I'm writing under mushambo.substack.com, still getting the hang of that platform. I need data to support my arguments, so if you can provide vidgame unit sales figures, please let me know.
This is a truly wild artistic experience! I ain't big on telling grown folks (within commUNITY at least) on how to spend their time, but I'll recommend this...(read descriptions while listening):

tl;dr - so this is why I was told to learn graph networks?
ps tl;dr - i already knew all this stuff from watching "The Wire" lol.

So apparently Trump's "Truth Social" platform is just going to utilize #mastodon as the base platform? LOL, y'all should see the pitch book that's going around for -- there's literally a whole slide that says "Industry Ripe for Further Segmentation" then it's a graphic of how the US population has evolved from 50M ("1800s" <-- Pretty sure there would've been intra-century growth?) to 330M ("2021"). It's not even a line graph! It's like someone's HS intern made it.
Y'all are a very interesting community, if I knew graph networks better, I bet it would be interesting to look at. Good on us! #qoto
My theory of commUNITY is about our psychographic. I probably should sketch it out fully, but let's just say it's also a compliment about being "good people", experts in whatever field we pursue, and being a giver vs. a taker. This dude (JL) is the world's best seedsman, hands down and ships worldwide. He also typesets the catalog (which funnier than hell) and doesn't have a telephone. If you don't know how to grow plants, I'm probably going to have to dig into these online training class platforms and do a video series. So please, don't ask me to add that to my list lol

Y'all will probably enjoy a newsletter called Ernie @ Tedium, lot of good stories on the background of our "lost" technologies of yesteryear.
Holy moly, I just logged onto Discord for the first time in a week. Just did "Mark All as Read". I can't keep up with 10+ "servers" each with 10+ channels. I think it's a function of how youngsters multi-screen everything. I forget that I've been online twice as long as some people have even been alive.
That's why I tell peeps in commUNITY if you really need me, hit me up on the MUD I STILL play!
I honestly don't know how to message someone on Twitter, so I'm going to put this out here on #qoto / #mastodon and see if it'll prove my "theory of commUNITY". I need to get this link to a certain famous musician / Ph.D. molecular biologist . I figure with enough nerds as are on here (I'm assuming :) someone knows Dexx's contact info...
I still won't be able to keep up with yet another platform, although I'm sure there are awesome peeps on #mastodon .. Why haven't all the creatives unionized now to be like the digital Teamsters? lol
I got lost under like 200 different tabs and now I don't remember which service/app/community I originally heard about #mastodon from. So this is like a secretive Discord? street craps, how many more of these platforms is commUNITY going to spread ourselves thin on here? We need to choose one and stick with it. Find me on my MUD lol.
