Nobody Cares: PRS

[Argent Stonecutter]

It's not what they are supposed to do but the fact that they don't do what they should do to begin with. Like ban the people who steal/have stolen from others instead of welcome the thief with open arms as I have seen them do more than once.

The cryptobros doing this do not have DA accounts, nor are they using DA hosting, there is literally no sanction DA can apply to them.

I never said they did. Maybe I'm not making myself clear or you're not getting my point. I said I pulled my stuff YEARS AGO, not recently. Before cryptocurrencies even existed.

I pulled all of my work from DA years ago

I'm not seeing the relevance to what's happening right now, where DA seems to be doing a good job of helping artists who've been ripped off.

Not in all cases. I would tell you about a recent case in point, but Cris doesn't want that person mentioned.

Le sigh.

Sent you a link in PMs. The guilty party is still in DA.

If you post an image to the web, it can be stolen.

I learned that lesson a long time ago. You may remember Blue Mars, the failed virtual world. I handed out a lot of content for free, and people paid me for custom building services instead. Musicians have learned too. You can listen or watch them on YouTube, and they make most of their income off concerts and merchandise.

Basic digital content is just too easy to copy. Services, like running game servers and custom design, and physical artifacts/private experiences are where the money is at.

It's not really sudden. Still, it's a breath of fresh air.

Russians Have Suddenly Stopped Buying Putin’s Anti-American Propaganda (thedailybeast.com)

It's pretty clear that beyond Putin's chronic Soviet-state paranoid mentality and his little-man syndrome, he's also busy trying to control the Russian public by creating foreign enemies a la 1984/Oceania/Eurasia/Eastasia.

/me waves her deed to the Brooklyn Bridge.

Nice! I was wondering who bought that NFT.

The Brooklyn Bridge Is Actually for Sale, an NFT of It Anyway

Someone is auctioning the rights to a digital image of the iconic New York bridge, in an apparent homage to a 20th-century swindler.

EDIT:

... or maybe you bought this one, from John Cleese?

John Cleese has an NFT bridge to sell you for $69.3 million

The actor known for silly walks has thoughts about NFTs.

Putin is doing what he's been talking about for the last 20 years. He's a Christo-fascist, with the Christianity being the Russian Orthodox variety and the fascism that of Ivan Ilyin, a Russian fascist and admirer of Hitler who died in exile in Switzerland whom Putin rehabilitated and whose remains he caused to be brought home for burial in Russia.

I really would recommend Timothy Snyder's book The Road to Unfreedom -- Eurasia, dominated by Russia and stretching from the Atlantic to the Indian Ocean, is Ilyin's idea, not Orwell's.

Let's Go Brawndo seems to be a thing.

If I got one of these, I'd immediately write back and ask if the only way *he* can maintain the family is through hostage-taking. When I get a reply back telling me it's "just a joke!" I'll ask if next year's card will show the wife with the Peace on Earth sign while he's looking sad and holding a bill for a vasectomy (a fake one of course, cuz it's just a joke!).
