Quoting: tarmo888Many won't understand NFTs until Steam removes trading cards (their ToS allows them to do it).

Ok, let's play through this: Steam removes trading cards. You've got a signature somewhere in a blockchain that one of many million of those cards is yours. What now? I sure won't buy it from you, because... what would it do for me? I can't show it in my profile, I can't make a set, I cannot do anything with it! Neither can you. So... what?

I agree with this:

QuoteRemember, Steve was the guy who put the customer experience first. In the end, that was the reason he ended making the decision he did. He thought that the most important person in the equation was the one who shelled out good money to buy the product in the first place.

I also don't want to wear clothes that show others with large signs who made the clothes. At least not as long as nobody pays me for it. (And still not if somebody offers to.)

Quoting: SalvatosI don’t know what Sui, Web3 or Playtron are, but I like how the shoulder buttons seem to be labelled to be readable by people not using the device.

Just like the tops of seemingly all laptops in the world - to my never-ending irritation.

Ah, that one makes sense to me since you can't be looking at the top of a laptop while using it (plus there's no need to since it's just a brand logo).

I'm using a laptop for some years now (not too many though), and I still expect it to open for me when the logo is turned correctly, not when it's on it's head... :)

When does SDL have to choose between X and Wayland? If I've got only X running, well, X is it, and if I got Wayland running, I probably wouldn't want SDL to use XWayland? Obviously, it's more complicated, but... why?

QuoteThe starter $499 price actually seems quite reasonable don't you think?

Curious if that includes, shipping, customs and tax etc.

It's the price when fetching it in Shenzhen. ;)
