Decision Making

          Well, I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend and a pleasant Father's Day. now back to our regularly scheduled programming.
          Gosh, decision making really is a process huh? It's hard enough to make decisions for yourself sometimes, and I think that the hardest decisions are often the smallest ones. The big, life altering choices I feel people can make without too many problems, mainly because they spend the time doing the research, thinking about what they want, and then going ahead and following their gut. People know the decision they're making and the consequences they'll have to live with. The smaller decisions however, are harder in my opinion. These are the choices that often creep up on you when you least expect it, the ones that aren't life changing events, but little things that initially have no effect on you. You know that these little decisions shouldn't be too important, stuff like what to eat today or what color phone case to purchase. These things are unimportant in the long run and we as people know this. And yet we toil over these decisions! I also want to put it out there that at know point will I attempt to explain this phenomenon or offer up advice with dealing it. Rather, I just want to point it out and complain about it. Because it is annoyance.
          However, much worse than the independent decision making process is perhaps the group decision process. And this really does have a spectrum. A small group of close, tight knit friends have the power to make a decision quickly and easily. It really is a blessing.

Spiderman 4: Into the Metaverse

 At first, I thought I was going to write about Facebook doing a complete rebrand as a company and their transformation into "Meta". On Oct 28th, CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that the company Facebook was more than just the platform Facebook and that the company name no longer encapsulated everything the company was trying to do. And just as  Google in 2015 had a restructure into parent company Alphabet, Facebook (the company) is now Meta. But as I did more research on what that entailed, I realized it's not really Facebook (from here on out Meta by the way) that I care about. Meta is just one small piece of this mess. Because, and call me cynical, I am one of the many who believe that Mark is just trying to move past all of the large pitfalls his company has recently encountered. I mean everything from large Instagram and Facebook outages to the recent whistleblower and the "Facebook Papers" cannot be good for the company name. I mean since really the beginnin...

The NFTea on NFT Video Games

 For the sake of clarity, I will do the briefest of recaps on what an NFT is before delving into my main business for today. An NFT, or "Non-fungible token" can be thought of as a purchasable digital proof of authenticity linked to a digital work. When an NFT is minted and sold on a marketplace, it can be bought and the buyer will receive the work and the digital code to mark their ownership. The word "receive" is not literal, as there is no physical work mailed to them. This is where most people get tripped up. Yes the work is digital and anyone can simply hit right-click and download the art. But then again, I don't have to pay millions at auction to own the Mona Lisa, I can order a cheap print of Amazon. Think of the NFT as being the mark that the buyer has rights to the authentic original. Yes, there are plenty of arguments against NFTs, from their use to their adverse effects on the environment. But, I am in no mood to get to them now and lucky for me this ...

Stoner Cats: The Cash Grab We All Should Have Expected

Yeah I'm talking about NFTs and crypto again. What of it? It annoys me. Although it is partially on me, since most of research now a days is crypto related so are a lot of my advertisements and suggested content. Anyway, onto the title of this blog. I suppose that, like a lot of these NFT "projects" we should go back to the beginning. This one is a doozy. Stoner Cats is an animated series revolving around six cats and their owner. Oh, and the cats are high on marijuana. That's it, that is the show. The project is consisted of multiple episodes (three as of the time I am writing) and claims it will go on for multiple seasons. On the Stoner Cats website , they say that the project was conceived sometime before 2020 and was later picked up by Orchard Farm Productions. The actual production of each episode is being done by Ghostbot Studios. They are a San Francisco based animation house that has worked on high profile projects in the past such as "Lost Treasure Hunt...
