I’m still waiting for 5G to revolutionize everything like every carrier promised it would.

I was expressly told by a reliable source that when pizza is on a bagel you can eat pizza anytime.

To combat spam and blatant fuckery, absolutely. Openly hateful places have no business on the general internet.

But anything else is better left to user discretion IMO.

At one point in my job I was effectively the translator between English speaking Indian software devs, and American project managers. If I can translate technical information into something understandable to a PM, and vague program specs into actionable technical requirements for the devs I think we’d actually be alright with the aliens.

A TV manufacturer would need to pay me A LOT of money to buy a TV with a camera on it. And I mean a life changing amount of money.

I have a newer TV already and that thing will never be allowed to talk to the internet because even without a camera it’s creepy enough.

A shitty economy that has forced people into paying more for less while corporations lie about the reason for inflation and rightfully soured everyday Americans view of the economy.

The value of the stock market and homes increasing does fuck all for people getting screwed at the grocery store.

I’m fortunate enough to get to benefit from both of those things, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to pretend the economy is great now because theoretical net worth has gone up.

Guess I’ll just start downloading that content too because I’m not paying you more for the same shit. I’d get rid of it altogether if it wasn’t just included as part of prime in general.

Spez killed third party apps so he could track people and sell ads. First party apps were bad and getting worse. And the whole way it went down was just dishonest and shitty. I don’t wanna support that.

I also really enjoyed being able to see new content AND comment on it/interact with the community. That was the reason Reddit was cool to me. If I didn’t channel that energy towards something else I’d have ended up back on Reddit.

And the cherry on top, I love the idea of decentralized social networks. It’s better for the internet.

Limiting micro transactions and banning predatory reward schemes in video games is genuinely a good thing. We need this to spread around the world.

I was using that same docker image for a while but somewhat recently migrated to this: https://github.com/favonia/cloudflare-ddns

It handles 5 of my domains all from the single container. Highly recommend it!

The concept of trickle down economics. Anyone with a functioning brain can tell you that it would never work. But somehow people as a whole in the US still think giving corporations and rich cunts extra money, and tax breaks somehow lead to the 99% reaping a benefit.

It has never been true because the basic function of capitalism is to get as much money as possible, while spending the least amount of money to do it. There’s no room for passing on the extra profits to your employees, clients, or vendors.

I mean…technically the suicide was prevented.
