I love that track, thanks for sharing this analysis.

This could have been a really interesting question if OP hadn't been so vague. As is, there's too many interpretations to answer. Do they mean the physical connections? The protocols and services like IP, DNS and BGP? The world wide web, with its sites, links and search engines?

Does OP consider the Dark Web its own internet? Or a large corporate network its own internet? What about self-hosting a huge number of services in your own home?

I honestly don't know if he meant that as a joke or an advert.

Their app and website are both atrocious. I've got a rant somewhere on Lemmy about once time it made me scream with impotent rage over the UX experience, and I'm someone comfortable with editing the DOM/scripting to fix the worst of it.

That's a hilarious solution.

I'm surprised that this is a genuine answer, I was expecting something else with a product name like that.

Wired headphones are great, and my mouse has a cable too. I might be a dinosaur.

I can see it from the three medium/small instances I just tried.

Also, is typigraphy a typo (typi?) or its own thing?

This is definitely the common one, even if it is a bit wordier than some others suggested here.

No idea what the downvotes are about.

It took me way too long to remember about tails.

I think that because you're attributing those views to "the citizenry". I can only go on the words you've used, and you've used a word that describes the whole country's population, not a small minority.

The make-up and mindset of the citizenry doesn't change just because the government changes.

It's a small minority from the far right rioting, with massive counter-protests. You're trying to say the whole population is rotten based on a few negative examples, which ironically is just what the racists are doing themselves.

Boat rule

 

I've been reading something spooky/creepy/horrific around this time for a few years now. Does anyone else do this? Any recommendations?

My reads:

  • 2023: Perfectly Preventable Deaths by Deirdre Sullivan
  • 2022: Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier
  • 2021: Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux
  • 2020: The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman
  • 2019: Red Dragon by Thomas Harris
  • 2018: Lincoln in the Bardo by George Saunders & Something Wicked this Way Comes by Ray Bradbury
  • 2017: Carrie by Stephen King
  • 2016: Jekyll and Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson
  • 2015: The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving
  • 2014: The Shadow Over Innsmouth by H. P. Lovecraft
  • 2012: The Call of Cthulhu by H. P. Lovecraft
  • 2009: Dracula by Bram Stoker
  • 2008: Frankenstein by Mary Shelley
 

I used to think typos meant that the author (and/or editor) hadn't checked what they wrote, so the article was likely poor quality and less trustworthy. Now I'm reassured that it's a human behind it and not a glorified word-prediction algorithm.
