    Also, I believe that the final verse is a very different translation than what the word-by-word translation would be. My german is rusty af but I believe it would translate to “will you be together until the pussy is dead, and love her also in the worse days”. And the fun part is that the lines are only a slight deviation from the typical wedding vows. “Tod euch scheidet” would be “Death does you apart” and “Tod der Scheide” is “Death of the split (or slang for pussy)”











  • I mean, it’s right next to the road, so the idea is probably to keep the dog from walking into traffic.

    But that’s a bit of short minded as they introduce the heat of the pavement, inability for the dog to lay down and control their temperature while also blocking someone elses bike. And this is all added onto the fact that you really shouldn’t tie your dog to stuff and leave them for a while anywhere in fairly populated areas.

    The dog owner seriously sucks.





  • I participated in a contest at a recruitment booth with wii sports basketball. Top score would win an iPad. I clutched a nearly perfect score and got 1st by a decent margin. But at some point before the awards were given, they decided to change the rules into a lottery for everyone who participated.

    All of those questions can only be answered with a big shrug. I don’t know. I guess there exist cases of ownership disputes where NFTs would provide an easy answer, but it’s fringe. Errors in transactions would probably be tough to handle, so I don’t know what would be done there. I specified the chassis-reference on the car to say something that is unlikely to change for the car, but of course you end up with the “Ship of Theseus”-paradox.

    And that brings it back to: it’s a nice solution to a problem which doesn’t really exist, and the application of it towards zero-value digital assets is a huge mess.

    NFTs are typically linked to digital assets, but it could also reference physical assets. Artists and collectors could link their physical artwork to NFTs to formalize ownership. And it wouldn’t have to stop at art. Ownership of cars could be linked to NFTs. Manifacturers could link NFTs to chassis-references such that ownership would exist in the block chain instead of (or in addition to) national registers. Similarly NFTs could reference houses, computers, chipped pets etc.

    I’m sure that there are a lot of issues with this, but the general idea seems fine at the very initial thought. Obvious flaws like increased hacking incentive or money laundering would probably turn it into a bad idea. But that’s my point. The general concept is fine, but the execution makes it a horrible mess.
