Nice one! I was going about OpenSimulator, but didn't have the time.

I just got bored and decided to do this.
It's still in basic stages right now.

What is Roblox?
It's some crappy kids game you can build script and make (little kids) play.

Feel free to copy :-)

Hmm, no hard copies of the bitcoin blockchain?
Nothing is stopping you from printing it out.  It would be a huge waste of paper and be out of date as soon as you stopped printing.
So, no permanent copies of the Bitcoin blockchain on paper...
There are thousands of copies of the blockchain distributed all over the planet.  If that is not good enough for you then please print out a copy.  Be sure to report back here how many pages it turns out to be.  Thanks!

Lol, like 10GB of paper...

There are more copies of blockchain than bank's database... but most likely bank's database is secured...

How hard would it be to wipe all copies of the bitcoin blockchain VS a bank's database ?

I feel like there should be a decentralized virtual world that goes with Bitcoin... what do you guys think...?
http://www.dragons.tl/ ?

You can theoretically buy a high-level account for the Treasures bonus, and work at compiling data on mechanics and statistics to "sell" in exchange for mentorship over students, slowly releasing that data to them for continued Treasures points. Since the Treasures bonus can be withdrawn for direct BTC, this could be considered an actual job with enough students, and there are people clearing an 8BTC bonus weekly. I don't know of anyone who doesn't just gamble it back away, though.  Cheesy

The devs could probably be enticed to add more SL-like VR stuff to the game, to change it more from a gambling platform to a weird VR.

Excuse me..?

1. Should copyright exist?


1. No because I do not find any of the arguments I have read regarding the use of violence against someone merely for speech to be compelling and therefore it would violate the Non-Aggression Axiom but I remain minded to superior arguments. Additionally, copyright was invented as a tool for the State to suppress the free flow of ideas, is still being used as a tool to suppress ideas like with the raid on Kim Dotcom and is all done under color of law that is built on a very weak intellectual foundation for moral justification.

Consequently, I am against the use of violence to impede or prevent the spread of the Bitcoin protocol because it is speech.

huh?  You went to law school and you don't understand the purpose of copyrights and intellectual property? 

"copyright was invented as a tool for the State to suppress the free flow of ideas"

Maybe the law has been taken too far but it was put into place at the request of artists to protect their work.  The rest of your lunatic rant in unintelligible to normal people.
copyright is for people who want to suck in money.
i do not support copyright, that's why I pirate non-open-source products and I donate to open-source projects.

Okay, there is a few more tidbits.

Suggest your ideas.

I had an idea back in the day to distribute the graphics rendering to all users.


Basically you would log on and a square or sphere that you occupied would be rendered by your computer. Everything in that room would model the light, objects, etc.

Going the route of a square you would have 6 sides that you would send/receive pixel information which includes the light/intensity/angle of direction and even for objects moving in and out each pixel could include mass/material/trajectory/speed/acceleration, etc.

Someone in the adjacent square would be able to view your room through the wall of pixels and render it within their room which would be passed to the next room and on and on.

This would allow for some very detailed graphics to be rendered in each room.

The problem would be the large bandwidth cost of passing a lot of information between 'rooms'. I was hoping for enough compression and higher bandwidths down the road which could handle it.

Never got around to testing just a single stream of light or anything, thought it would be a cool distributed concept though.

It may be a good idea in the future, when computers are powerful, through.

I had this on my head for a while.
Bitcoin is a decentralized currency. Why not have a decentralized virtual world to go with it?

  • Decentralized
There's no central point of shutdown, so if one "world" is down, you can still access another one.
Also, you can't get banned from the entire network.
  • Expandable
In the future, they may be more powerful hardware, and more kinds of human interface devices. You should be able to use new technology without hassles.
  • Scriptable
You can make your own "world" do stuff you want, do permissions, etc.
  • User
Each "user" has a unique ID, like Bitcoin addresses. A new ID can be generated at any time, however you may lose your access at certain "worlds".




Worlds:
     Each world has an ID. ID has a public key and a private key. The private key is for the controller of the world. The public key is so people can go to that world.
     Worlds can be programmable to do stuff, like keep certain users out. Each world should accept a protocol people can agree with. Newer protocols should be made when new types of HID come out.

Currency and trade:
     Bitcoin could be what mostly everybody in this virtual world trades in. As I said, this system is easy to build on. An system could be made to identify if an virtual item is counterfeit or genuine. The possibilities are endless.

Users:
     Each user would have a user ID. There is a public and private user ID. The private user ID allows the user to control the public user ID. The public user ID is used to identify users.

Interface with worlds:
     Any user can connect to any world, however worlds can disallow a user into a world (not responding to the user's request). If a user does not like a world, the user can exit the world at any time.

Processing:
     If a user has a dumpster computer (pentium d, dell, etc.) there could be a network of computers that allow these users to connect to a world without needing a new computer. There would be an internal currency that would not allow the user to use the network of processing units excessively.

Suggest your ideas. I have not finished writing this topic up.

Different exchanges = different prices.
This is good, and ensures the exchanges are not linked together.
