Advocate for freedom and tolerance even if you say things I do not like

Adversary of Fediblock

Accept that I'll probably say something you don't like and I'll give you the same benefit, and maybe we can find some truth about the world.

Ah... Is the Alliteration clever or stupid? Don't answer that, I sort of know the answer already...

That's basically the purpose of fediblock.

"I'll suck your dick for a hit of Twitter!"

Freezing to death this winter.

Also democrat, but it's to keep "the straight whites" from ruining your life.

It's establishment all the way down.

Man, does that clip describe a lot of people in western societies right now...

I'm very excited to ignore more star wars content!

It's meta, so the headset explodes and kills the user if they are banned for TOS violations.

tbh I think there's something iffy about amazon's business model.

Let's say you see my new design for magnetic meter leads and you want them, and I want to sell lots so I sell them for $2.

There's simply no way I could break even selling those $2 meter leads while spending 10 bucks to mail them to you and giving you free shipping.

I know "amazon prime", but there's no way that breaks even.

People ask me what the cloud is. I draw a picture where I draw a cloud and label it "not my problem".

Went on a trip with my wife recently, and she was like this packing, but I was the one worried when it came to stuff I percieve as important, such as getting to the airport early (because frequent flyers know you don't fuck with that)

Between the two of us, the trip went well.

I like how CNN was so retarded they couldn't even keep it to one word.

Imagine being this stupid and yet this arrogant.

11/10 for referring to tech.lgbt as "my gay little website"

I have to admit, Samsung got a lot better over the years.

Except for their locked bootloaders. Boo

In my view, you don't even need to be partisan to want this.

A hegemonic domination of politics by one force is almost always going to be a bad thing. Even if it's people you generally agree with, having the level of unaccountable power the left has in California inevitably means you've got a lazy and corrupt political establishment that knows it doesn't have to do what's right for the people.

Birdsite takeover company staffing politics
He's the most visible, but I expect the same is happening to a lot of big tech folks who thought they could do anything without real consequence.

Birdsite takeover company staffing politics
That's a good point. Honestly, he probably just shouldn't have bought twitter. It was good for the memes, but what he wants isn't compatible with what he bought.

How many people declare they're quitting smoking then actually do it?

re: Birdsite takeover meme
I dunno, I think the entire tech industry requires mass layoffs. Any other industry this filled with overpaid people who don't actually do anything associated with the core business would have been moved to China or Bangladesh without prejudice long ago.

We have our friends at kiwi farms and now our friends the establishment journalists on here. Two sides of the same poison coin. Violate their personal code of conduct and your personal life can be up for grabs.

At that point, you have two options: either present yourself as an inoffensive gruel so nobody ever feels the need to go after you, or take some basic measures to protect yourself.

To be honest though, I'm particularly worried now that the journalists have arrived. Even if we assume the best faith on their part, how long until companies that do spam for a living realize there's this fertile ground for spam, with articles in every magazine about how great and open it is?

Unfortunately, as long as there are bad actors out there security on the internet will inevitably return to a deny any model eventually.
