Honest question: how does hurting consumers even more solve the problem? Is it a deterrent to the original tariffs or something else?

Chill out, I already had enough reasons to not use those sites.

If you do end up eating one, tell us how many bytes it took.

But here’s the thing: all those other platforms, the ones where I unwisely allowed myself to get locked in, where today I find myself trapped by the professional, personal and political costs of leaving them, they were all started by people who swore they’d never sell out. I know those people, the old blogger mafia who started the CMSes, social media services, and publishing platforms where I find myself trapped. I considered them friends (I still consider most of them friends), and I knew them well enough to believe that they really cared about their users.

They did care about their users. They just cared about other stuff, too, and, when push came to shove, they chose the worsening of their services as the lesser of two evils.

I spent so much time with this thing. Moon Patrol was my jam.

Moving towards the equator made me hate winter a lot less. Having more consistent daylight throughout the year made a big difference for me.

We are not a sentimental age

We don’t want our parent’s china or their ticker-tape parades

We are not a sentimental age

We’re out getting high on fire escapes

We are hooking up with strangers we will never see again

We are not a sentimental age

We are not a sentimental age

…

We are not a sentimental age

On our shoulders is a boulder of a debt we cannot pay

We are not a sentimental age

Diagnosis says I tend to disengage

I’d rather have my privacy, I’d rather have my space

These are just the pills I have to take

We are not a sentimental age

A few days ago I was messing with my ubiquiti dream router and its ssh config option said the key should start with ssh-rsa 🙄

Seriously! What is smart about these things? It’s smart not to buy this bullshit. It’s 1984 doublespeak just like the “open” in “OpenAI”.

The phrase “these days” makes it sound like there’s more to it than this thread. Obviously after this post nobody would want to buy LG, but it sounds like there are other reasons.

Why? What made you go from favorite monitors to “eat shit”?

It says “Smart Monitor” right there in the pic.

Yes. All the time.

Sure, but there’s no verification when calling a cab so you can use an alias if you want.

So less like I, Robot and more like Surrogates.
