Funnily enough, I was going to try out some voice transition training on my own (because why not), but I'm a little worried about what it might lead to.

Just throwing this out there, but If anyone is transitioning to female, and you would privately like some assistance and/or moral support, please feel free to pm me. You wouldn't be the first I've helped. ;) Allies always <3
 
I haven’t run for the last 3 days. I felt a slight pain on my right foot angle and wanted to give it a rest.
Pain is almost disappeared and I need to run today. Birds are singing, sky is clear and the city still sleeps.

I decided to wear my racing shoes for a few days, the two and only ASICS Metaspeed SKY for max cushioning & protection. (Also with way less kilometers than the others)
I have done 5 PRs with those beauties and hoping for at least one more this year.

Can somebody explain to me what an NFT is in a way you would explain to a really stupid, in no way intellectually gifted five year old?

An NFT is a digital token that refers to a piece of art, that is traded as a commodity, as art is. Except you don't own the art, you own the digital token that refers to the art.

There exists a mechanism for creation of signature of any piece of data. You can extract an unique signature of an entire DVD, signature being just a handful of bytes long, DVD being gigabytes in length.

Two same DVDs yield the same signature. Change one bit on DVD, signature changes.

This technique is called hashing.

What NFT is, is a concept that you can "buy ownership" of something that's freely distributable over the internet, like a JPEG image, by having a record of buying its hash signature.

In total 5.yo terms it's like if a digital mona lisa gets released, even if the hi-res is paywalled, it will quickly be shared over the Internet for anyone with basic search skills. NFT thing allows someone to "own" the signature of the picture for reasons only known to them. It's a financial game alike crypto. They can claim assets. I don't know what the grand scheme is about, it's quite insane to me and really mocked in tech circles.

Furthermore, these nuts are pushing some sort of Web3.0 concept where everything is a microtransaction. There is a way to explain what it's all about and how it ties to NFTs and dystopian economy but it's 1 AM and that would be a long post.
