Well, in Dave’s CEO’s defense, it was just Google Ads.

Just, you know, that thing that largely provides the income for a world top-ten company.

I’m just a simple country hyper-chicken but… That makes it sound like you are investing in that evil. Please say you are shorting that shit.

This is, excuse me, fucking brilliant

Caught my eye too and it feels eerily reminiscent of the alt-right “coomer” and “consoom” kind of vocabulary, although I stress the word “feel”

Awesome, thanks for sharing and making this effort! Bookmarked for later when I can listen to your work.

How do you feel about Audacity?

Lemmy on Voyager is flawless as fuck.

In fact I have been lately on Bluesky and spending much more time there these days, since people who I respect say “it’s an open standard” and “a true bulwark to the next Musk or whoever wants to buy it”, but I regularly find myself wondering, “what am I looking for here [on Bluesky]?”

The anonymity of reddit type platforms, of which Lemmy is the most future proof, is highly preferable. Bluesky (Twitter/Xitter, etc) feels lie a bunch of ‘identities’ wanting on some level to get the karma their post deserves plus the karma their identity ‘deserves’

Not to mention Pepe the frog or whatever alt right thing that is/was

You know, it’s crazy. The moment I learned that fucking Hitler was once Time’s Person of the Year, I think I’d be once and for all OK with year upon year passing where I was not that year’s Person.

Also in that field, but… I think you have to acknowledge that being, usually, in your example 1) at work and 2) on a computer, make people that much less interested in giving a shit. Compare to various systems people use in their free time, and you probably see that people are pretty good at attending to the things they think matter.

Capitalism, or, at the very very least, unfettered capitalism, are the real problem, not people writ large.

Been watching Band of Brothers (then of course the sequel, The Pacific) and gameplay from The Darkness for this very “no particular reason”. The Darkness feels more cathartic.

And, I would like to add, what in the goddamn fuck
