Own your shit without anyone’s permission or it will disappear

I’ve been through the desert on a horse with an amorphous skeletal system

It felt good to get away from the contrived internet comments that dissed 'em

Who even knows what their icon looks like right now? I’m not gonna go check

Ochh fuching GODD;

Spunue ive bucoocn… BOEVER

If license ownership rights with digital custodians were as good as they are with discs, there would be no conversation happening right now. The difference now is that custodians will occasionally snap a finger and disappear your stuff, and you have no recourse.

Insurrection you say

I don’t suppose you’ve checked Anna’s archive. Probably so, just didn’t see it mentioned by name.

They’re fancy receipts, and if people thought of them as just that it might be a technology with some limited non-monetary uses. But, the crypto grift was too strong.

If journalism is the first draft of history, maybe fiction is the first draft of the future

The main thing I’m for is improved ownership rights, and currently GOG is the best of them. The only downside with it is that you can’t sell it on when you’re done, like old games in physical media.

Robbie Ferguson is deep in this stuff as one of the development partners (IMX provides key technologies that makes the marketplace green and cheap trade on). Here’s one of his interviews to start. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fAjYtL6SkiU

However it’s an unrealized technology, and kind of a moonshot admittedly. If anyone can pull it off it’s GameStop IMO. There’s not another global video game sales company with a vested interest in reselling digital games - the others like steam are happy to keep things the way they are, naturally (basically, DRM and no resale).
