NFT, Web3... stop the snake oil, please.

Retroemulation people have been preserving the classics since decades, even more with libre (FLOSS) implementations made with SDL/SDL2 making these games ultraportable and eternal.

What does your lovely NFT solve here? Explain.

Not my lovely NFT at all. Imagine the retro game and emulation required to run it forever preserved in a standard format. That's what a concept like NFT SHOULD be addressing. I'm lamenting that it's not doing so.

We already have these standards. Binary ROM dump formats with headers. There's no need for NFT's.

jeez guys, please read before dumping on me :) I'm saying ideally, NFTs SHOULD prevent obsolescence of digital assets They don't. But if you think about it, it ought to be one of the primary purposes of a concept like NFT, right? That's all I'm saying. Sorry to use the trigger word :P

How do people jam NFTs in the most random of places.

Global Warming ?

NFT.

Inflation ?
