We really need to stop throwing away useful terms and concepts because their progenitors don’t turn out to be role models. Knowledge doesn’t always come from perfect sources. “Tragedy of the Commons” has no basis in race as a concept as I understand it, I don’t see why the guy who coined the term being a racist POS means I should take a moral stance on it.

… but, you know, fuck that guy.

You know how many times I’ve tapped “bookmark this page” or the “tabs” button instead of the “Saved Bookmarks” button that I’m trying to hit?

Or the fact that I can’t open a bookmark from a “new” tab on mobile, I have to navigate to a random site first before I can access them (unless it’s a “pinned favorite” too).

I’ve switched to a lot of foreign media tbh. Irish television is killing it right now for example.

I always wonder… what’s sort of big ideas do you have for mobilizing a nation of disparate people?

I doubt you’ve ever successfully wrangled 3 mates to get a pizza order together, much less a nationwide protest.

That sucks bro, sorry they did that lol.

I don’t know if this will help you but I throw everything I scribble into a “Liked” playlist and remove it into a “Tired of it” playlist when it meets the criteria you describe. Then every 6-9 months or so I think to sweep through that playlist and move some stuff back lol.

It’s obviously a hacky solution but it makes me feel better.

If it’s direct then why the 10GB limit?

I mean, I understand and agree with his message and that sounds pretty catchy… but doesn’t he have those definitions switched around?

After all you don’t have “optimism” when all is lost lol.

Then as a stickler you should probably clarify that 20yrs isn’t the lifespan of a panel but the simply the end of most warranty periods.

The panel itself is (typically) fine, just less efficient after so long.

I love a good dirge where I agree with about 70% of what the person is saying and can’t tell if it’s cringe or eloquent until I’ve sat with it awhile. It usually tells me I’ve made it to the right parts of the internet lmao.

However I don’t think the internet is dying, I think it’s fragmenting slower than it used to because the informed are moving away from the social spaces where they’re obviously being mistreated, just like they always have. Only now most of them have digital baggage because these companies have been around so long they have become a large part of our every day lives. Migrating from MySpace to Facebook was 100x easier than trying to move your family from Facebook Messenger to Signal.

Link was dead for me as soon as I tried it.

Sure, officially. I recognize the hurdles a fascist takeover from the inside is presenting to the smooth operation of a judicial system lol but I’m talking about at a personal level for this one guy.

How does he go to work day in and day out and not hear about this fuckery going on in his own circles when I’m hearing about it constantly? Or maybe this is a new low even for them since the article mentions that they have a duty to inform the judge. In which case there shouldn’t be any words of admonition, just action and explanations after the fact imo.

I know judges are just people that go to work like the rest of us but I still can’t understand why they haven’t already noticed the same contemptible behavior that the rest of us have been seeing and dispensed with the leeway they always give the DOJ attorneys. I mean shouldn’t they, of all people, know how scummy the DOJ has been recently when it comes to getting what it wants?
