Its particularly interesting that Hunter got nabbed for evading taxes (technically failing to pay on time, but I suspect he wouldn’t have paid at all if the IRS didn’t enforce it.)
I bet all those Republicans who voted to gut the recent increase in funding for the IRS will never understand the irony.
As shitty as this outcome is, it gave 45 million Americans, in a demographic that is not as politically active as their older counterparts, a good reason to turn out and vote in 2024.

I think federation is overrated. How difficult is it to have multiple accounts these days?
It will be very hard to vet users from other instances properly in the Fediverse. Even if tools exist to do better validation (like, for instance, allowing an instance to validate that the subscriber from another instance has a valid email address), someone with ill intent can figure out a way around that.
I think that the Fediverse could use an identity verification service, but fear that’s what Facebook is trying to be.
I actually lost weight, because all the kids’usual activities that I shuttled them around to were canceled, and we had the time to take daily walks. I’m trying to get back to that habit, but it’s really hard now.
One reason to include blockchain tech in games is to enable trading of in-game assets without needing to build a trading engine from scratch. It also offers the chance to tie in-game assets directly to real-world values, and have certain assets be useful across games in a franchise. Basically everything Magic The Gathering or Pokémon does, except that you don’t have to worry about the cards deteriorating as you use them.
Once you realize that Magic and Pokémon were just cardstock NFTs all along, the whole idea of NFTs in gaming start to make more sense. Not every application that the the Crypto Bros propose to solve with NFTs are really appropriate, but some are.
I won’t necessarily dispute that.
If Blockchain tech really did solve a gaming problem in a unique way, it would be done under the hood, in such a way that developers and modders could use it to add value, but casual gamers wouldn’t even realize it was being used. However, it’s harder to get funding based on buzzwords that way.
