putting the focus back on collectorship is exactly what NFTs need. they are non-fungible, they should be treated as such... traits matter, rarity matters, aesthetic matters, the art matters. That is integral to how culture is built around NFTs. the last 4 years every entity interacting with NFTs tried to hyperfinancialize them, focused on floor price, and just made them feel like fungible assets. This was never their intention and it's not their future. The biggest bravo and kudos for steering the ship back where it belongs. This will also be what makes NFTs a more attractive sector to a larger group. If people are just looking to short term speculate on something fungible, go to memecoins, stocks, commodities, perps... and leave NFTs alone.












PSA $DOOD token holders @doodles 100% of founder and investor tokens fully unlock tomorrow. Team and advisors receive their first unlock as well. To our knowledge everyone has been given their onboarding information to setup receiving their tokens. The NEUKO team, who led much of the token launch, have not been onboarded to receive our vested tokens for reasons that have not been explained to us. Our calls to @burnttoast and @jarettknapp have gone unanswered. While disappointed we remain focused on building a company this community can be proud of.





Google Chrome is quietly downloading a roughly 4 GB AI model to many users’ computers without clear upfront consent. The file, called weights.bin, is part of Google’s Gemini Nano on-device language model and lands in the browser’s user data folder under OptGuideOnDeviceModel. It powers built-in AI tools such as “Help me write,” smarter tab suggestions, on-device scam detection, and page summarization. The download triggers automatically for devices meeting minimum hardware requirements, and Chrome often replaces the files if deleted. While the model processes data locally, installation happens in the background with minimal notification. The scale is noteworthy. Hundreds of millions or billions of installations add up to thousands of tonnes of carbon emissions globally from data transfer, even though each is a one-time event. To prevent or remove it, go to chrome://flags, disable the entries for the optimization guide on-device model and Prompt API, restart the browser, and manually delete the folder.
