- Comment on Why doesn't phones numbers have a "DNS" servet so we can just type in words like we do with the internet? 5 days ago:
VoIP systems are getting us closer to your example. Properly provisioned VoIP (on-prem or cloud) can take a SIP user which looks exactly like an email address and direct digital calls to a physical phone. These days it’s likely going to be sent to an office desk phone or a Teams user, but many years from now it will likely be more common to dial out like that from/to any phone device.
I think your example is a bit more nuanced in that there’s some sort of regional database that I suppose one could register for when they change their address. But I don’t think we’re moving in that direction. Things are moving in a decentralized manner and folks hold onto their digital identities, regardless of their geographical location. So like others comments have said, the phone book system is not evolving any further, because modern communication systems are already the evolved version.

Yeah, I use that feature all the time. It’s really great. I can upload an image of text data and get an output in table or summary format.

My dude, I think they blocked you broski… /s
Just kidding…maybe you have the group silenced?
- are you just not getting notifications but they still end up in the thread when you open it, or you can’t see them at all?
- is this happening with all participants in the group?
- are you on an iPhone or android and which app?
- if you don’t have anything important in the conversation, maybe try deleting the thread and see if you start receiving from the others
- Try starting a new group chat from your device.

I’m sorry, Bruce. These boys get that syrup in them, they get a little antsy in their pantsy. You just can’t keep them under control.

Ha!
But yeah, like others have said in this post, it had a bad light cast on it due to the jpg and gif NFTs. Folks started to realize: “wait… this token just contains a link to a web server hosting a jpg file??”
Well, yes. But also the rights.
“The heck you mean ‘the rights’??”
I mean, your Drunk Monkey in Teal Color Theme artwork is yours to use, you’ve purchased the license in the form of an NFT.
“But it’s just a link that anyone could just copy!”
Well, that would be stealing.
So NFTs in that regard are like any movie or TV show, or video game you rent or purchase. That utility may or may not seem to have any value to any one person, but it is a utility, and a pretty cool one if you ask me. But the usage, its implementation, is what matters. Whatever that usage requirement is for the individual or business, blockchain will do it well. Even if it is used to license junk.

To your edit; it was a great example, but if you say anything positive about blockchain (or Apple, or capitalism, etc) you’ll likely be heavily downvoted on Lemmy.
- Comment on Please Stop 11 months ago:
With smart contracts on blockchain you can do exactly that. Everyone involved in the process can ensure they get their cut.

- Comment on Apple 'Find My' network can be abused to steal keylogged passwords 1 year ago:
This is another example of very specific situations in INFOSEC. It’s unlikely that you will become a victim to this key logger attack. And of course the title suggests that Apple’s Find My network is compromised. This is not the case. But it is being utilized, in this instance, against Apple’s rules and regulations.
The real hack here is that the victim had their keyboard modified or was given a compromised keyboard that broadcasts Bluetooth signals, that are then picked up on the Find My network. It could be transmitted via Bluetooth, WiFi, audible sound, monitoring energy differentials, etc. It’s the HMI hardware that’s been compromised. Apple will likely develop updates to their Find My network, but the compromised keyboard could then be modified to use some other service or broadcast methods. Apple fixing the Find My network to recognize bad actors will not prevent this style of attack.
