Short form videos are fucking digital opium. I hate it. I deliberately do not have instagram/YT/tiktok accounts with the intention of avoiding it, but I have repeatedly found myself watching a short vid sent from a friend before I find myself scrolling and then snapping back to attention, 40+ minutes later, like some Jekyl/Hyde shit. I imagine it’s what having an epileptic seizure is like. I just lose track of time completely and I hate it.

I never agreed with Bradbury about how TV is so bad so forth, but I am with him now. Shit’s addictive

Thanks, I hate it

Nice, that’s dingo

Neat. I will be maybe be dedicating a TB of storage to this for no particular reason

Is there a way to just download a straight copy of Wikipedia?

Def not asking because I expect every possible thing to go awry and we end up with Big Brother’s version of wiki

Cause fuck’em, that’s why!

Heyyy, now I get to enjoy some copium for being such a dinosaur and resisting to use it as often as I can

if we’re all sick with long covid 3.0, we’re easier to subjugate. okeydoke

Gosh, it’s like every time some big genuine shitshow is about to be revealed, we get to enjoy some surface-level bullshit distraction. What are the odds?

Cool story, bro.

PLEASE GO VOTE IF YOU HAVEN’T ALREADY

The two signs you need are:

1. Did you drop off your ballot?
2. Did your local government confirm they received your ballot?

This is the way

quick, distract everyone from the Vance stuff

I don’t know if they’re all bastards, but HR is absolutely not your friend. Human Resources <> protections for employees. Instead, Human Resources = protection for the company

The nintendo lawyers are gonna have to remind themselves not to send cease and desists to this place. Yknow, since the historical records housed there inherently infringe on various nintendo copyrights /s

Go ahead. Throw your vote away Kang and Kodos laughter

Naw, no hate. iPods are fuckin rad. Younger generations should definitely get to enjoy older tech. But the author’s observations weren’t really anything I needed to invest my time in reading. I know old iTunes had a visualizer. I don’t know why I read the whole thing anyways

Why did I just read an article about using an iPod that was clearly written by someone born in the early-mid 2000s? I know the original ipod was fun. I was there, gandalf

I didn’t start playing BG3 ‘til October, but it’s all I’ve played since then and I have not looked back

I hope my kids get a full, long life before the water wars begin. I do my part where I can, but I’ll never have the footprint that some big billion dollar corporation can affect. The oligarchy and their absolute zero interest in preventing a climate disaster has fucked us all.
