  • No, the “non-fungibility” simply means that anyone who creates an NFT with the same link will be distinct from your link to the image, even if the actual URL is the same. Both NFTs can also be traced back to when they were created/minted because they’re on a blockchain, a property called provenance. If the authentic tokens came from a well known minting, you can establish that your token is “authentic” and the copy token is a recreation, even if the actual link (or other content) is completely identical.

    Nothing about having the “authentic” token would give you actual legal rights though.



  • No. Nvidia will be licensing the designs to mediatek, who will build out the ASIC/silicon in their scaler boards. That solves a few different issues. For one, no FPGAs involved = big cost savings. For another, mediatek can do much higher volume than Nvidia, which brings costs down. The licensing fee is also going to be significantly lower than the combined BOM cost + licensing fee they currently charge. I assume Nvidia will continue charging for certification, but that may lead to a situation where many displays are gsync compatible and simply don’t advertise it on the box except on high end SKUs.

    Apple was one of the major contributors to the USB-C standard, including the physical connectors.

    The tongue design was used because it makes high speed a lot easier. If your traces are in the center of the connector, you can do a cutout of the PCB and mount a “dumb” connector housing for the socket. You can also have a ground plane right in the middle and use both sides for differential pairs, which is exactly what happened. It also means you don’t have to deal with the pain of high frequency signals leaving the board into the air like other connectors.

    But yes, don’t shove screwdrivers into your USB sockets either.


    • Banana leaves will work fine if they’re more accessible. It’s a common substitute in other countries. You might even be able to use paper, really. It just has to keep everything contained during cooking/storage.

    • Masa is basically just nixtamalized cornmeal/cornflour mixed with water. You can make nixtamalized corn yourself if you’re willing to go through the effort. If you don’t, unnixtmalized cornflour works. It’s not bad, just different.

    • Where does milk come into tamales?! Unless you’re doing sweet tamales or trying to make cheese, tamales don’t involve milk.

    • Any chili will work, even thai. Add some capsicum if you want more of that pepper sweetness but all you can find for heat are small thais. Alternatively, use a recipe intended for chiltepins or pequin chilis. Mexico has hundreds of different chilis and all of them are used to make salsa. Just make sure to use white onion, not sweet or yellow. Throw everything in an oven till it’s blackened, add cilantro/coriander, blend, season, cool, eat.
