Bunch of mediocre people really sweating right now.

Yeah I walk downtown in my favorite city now and it smells like losers. It’s a bummer.

Google sucks, but Apple sucks too. And if you hate them both, Android is the better choice for a smartphone because you can use it with minimal interaction with Google whereas any Apple device firmly has you in the Apple ecosystem.

I enjoyed Twitter for a long time when it was smaller and ad free and didn’t suck, and now I’m enjoying Bluesky while it’s smaller and ad free and doesn’t suck.

It’s unlikely Bluesky could ever suck as much as Twitter and Reddit have come to suck, but if I have to leave Bluesky in a few years for the next one, then so be it.

This reminds me of that infographic that explains the difference between equality, equity, etc.

Good thing you’re not judging. If it was the passive aggressive criticism it looks like on the surface, it might contribute to this very topic of people feeling safer keeping to themselves than speaking freely and saying the wrong words.

The change hasn’t even officially happened yet. Over time, following the changes, ad tech will get restructured to take advantage of the new limitations so ads can’t be blocked. Nothing will change overnight.

Fuck off with this unhinged, unsupported rant. Prove it or stop posting it.

Dorsey is no longer involved with Bluesky.

I tried Jellyfin but I use the live TV section extensively and something about their implementation of the programming guide worked badly.

Short answer: No.

Long answer: No, and stop asking stupid questions.

He can fuck off for legitimizing and enriching Musk’s Twitter for two years and then leaving after it’s too late to do any good.

The time to do something about it was two years ago. The fucking morons who haven’t deleted their Twitter account have been keeping the Nazi bar alive and relevant, I hope they’re not surprised or complaining about anything now.

I’ll use it for now while it’s good and ditch it if/when it enshittifies just as I ditched Reddit and Twitter. The mistake I won’t repeat is relying on it. If I have to bail, it won’t be difficult this time.

I think they’re implying that it can be rude to broadcast someone’s age, since some people like to be private about it.

Newspapers report facts in one section and editorial opinions in a different section. They are clearly compartmentalized from each other. They are both useful. The editorial staff has a long history of making presidential endorsements. We’re free to disagree with the endorsement, they are not telling us what to think, just giving us a perspective to consider among all the others we hear.

What the Post did is highly abnormal. It’s not like the editorial staff decided out of nowhere to write up this endorsement. They did because it’s an automatic thing they’re expected to do before elections.

Think about watching a sports broadcast. There’s typically two guys, one reporting play by play (facts) and the other adding color/analysis.

I’m not going to start being an asshole out of nowhere but I will go after an asshole and tear them apart. I will never be mean or rude to someone who seems nice. And of course I won’t make fun of someone’s looks or weight or gender or race. But I do make a lot of jokes on other topics and people probably perceive me as rude sometimes when I don’t intend it. I don’t think it’s wrong to be a looser version of yourself here than in real life. Within reason.

Oh word?

We need to communicate our sexual identity clearly at a high level because we all need to work out with each other who can date or fuck who.

We don’t have as much practical reason to know each other’s specific experience with autism right away. And if you are close to someone and need to understand their autism at a lower level, their personal situation is more complicated than being one of five or six types.

And if you do need to understand someone’s sexuality at a low level, it could also be more complicated and individualized than just being one letter. But knowing that one letter with sexuality helps as a start.

Fuck you, I’m not wading through your fuckass prompts when I could toggle one simple switch.
