what was it even about?

Uh, hard to tl;dr. Basic points are "putting medical records etc on the blockchain is a bad idea", "bad for environment", "NFTs are all pump and dump schemes", some leaks of NFT discords where people bully those critical on NFTs

Some crypto tech is worse than others

a like 20 minute segment on people getting scammed out of their NFT wallets

Is it anti-blochchain?

or just retards buying NFTs

It is, but its a bit more balanced than most "blockchain bad" videos I have seen

He is critical of the claims that the people propping up/creating crypto make

not having watched it, I don't want to shit on my own strawman

but, most anti-blockchain takes are bad

and centre around things like "look how dumb cumcoin is"

He is outright NFTs are a scam designed to be a bigger sucker scam where you buy in assuming someone else will be a bigger sucker and buy it for more than you payed

or "can you believe someone lost their $10M NFT because they didn't understand basic computer skills"

he's sort of right on that

Like 20-30% of the video is dedicated to the history of crpyto

a LOT of people really REALLY want to get in on the ground floor with the next big thing

I think the video overall is alright

so there's a pool of suckers who will back anything

but crypto may be one of the single biggest impacting things in the last 10 years

whether you associate that with blockchains, or the "curriencies" themselves

and I think it's a net positive, even if you don't discount all the retarded parts of it

My take has always been

tech cool, 99.9% of people who are into it are retards

the problem is, the cool tech takes a backseat to making money

and like I've said before, it fucking sucks, broadly

how much people have to hustle for money nowadays, to live a half-way decent life

whether that's crypto gambling, the "gig economy", ecomerce, streaming, etc.

so I don't blame people for flocking to crypto/NFTs

and it'll work out for some of them

and I don't even think it's bad necessarily

the idea that we can have immutable records of things though

is an improvement

and I think the push to "digitize" things will soon become a push to get things on the blockchain

I think the most interesting thing he talked about was how etherum (I think it was that one) forked because someone stole like 20% of the total supply

ETH is kind of a crazy story

I also think broadly, that blockchains tend to produce better encryption

when compared to Type 1 shit

quantum computing will fuck us either way

but I have very little faith in most encryption standards, other than SUPER heavy ones

I will tell my black friend who is doing his masters in Quantum info to hurry up

i encrypt everything by writing it backwards, cant beat that

Josh mentioned somehting on this stream a couple months ago

about the internet breaking apart in the future

q.computing will be what does it

Yeah his theory of little i internets

as he puts it

appak

nations will refuse to have their networks connected to externals

once every end-to-end negotiated connection is irrevocably fucked by quantum BS

it's one thing if you can use your own police/military to stop it

but when every bank transaction has a chance for N.Korean hackers to fuck with it

I think even Western countries will build walls

because there will never be some cross-national enforcement of protocol protections

it's not about the NSA reading your messages

just make q encryption

every theory so far has not been quantum complete

there have been 2-3 proposed algorithms so far

we need to find one that works

and tbh

idk if we will

I'm more bullish on the exponential computing power

doing a LOT more than we think it'll be able to

exponential's the wrong verb

it's a power function

idk what the verb would be

i cant wait to use my dna as encryption

someone needs my blood to open a zip file

So the last 40 men who fucked you can hack you

got it

brb, sucking regis dick

to steal all his crypto

i actually was attempting to date a female tonight

tyvm

>attempting

oof

it's only 11PM

u think im good at dating? fuck no

I hope it is better than spookys attempt which only resulted in me being called asexual

did she want to see your vaxx card?
