The problem is the sort of society that would give a participation trophy.
It's a society that doesn't recognise that some things are good and some things are bad, that there's such a thing as merit and that one should strive for and be rewarded for merit.
Postmodern society sees no distinction between eudemonia and hedonism, and that's an indicator of a decadent society. Unless there's a cultural change, the modern world will have to collapse.

I get a kick out of it when I get reported to myself.
It's like "Welp, guess I'm shutting it down folks, pulling the plug because some rando decided they didn't like my post!"

The other thing is that for an extra 2 cents they can put whatever logo they want on your product. I experienced that one first hand on a project where we were buying parts from China. The factory was more than willing to put a fake CSA logo on the product to help us install it despite having no such certification.
CE isn't really the one you'd want anyway. That's just a symbol saying that the manufacturer claims to follow european standards, but it isn't anything meaningful. By contrast, something like a UL logo will mean that they actually had to get certified as conforming to UL standards.
Would be really interesting if the direct result of such legislation was people just left big Tech.
It would be sort of like "mission accomplished"

RSS is great. For podcasts, but also for updates from websites. I've got my news app in nextcloud, and it's just become where I get my news because it brings a bunch of totally different news sources together.
Friendica has a really cool feature where you can subscribe to RSS feeds and they just show up on your feed. I ended up migrating to another platform, but that's one big feature I miss from that platform.

The richest motherfuckers on the planet pretending that they care about the poorest motherfuckers on the planet, while spending their immense fortunes going to see a guy that they don't like so they can boo him instead of actually doing something about the masses of unemployed people in their own City
The realest.

That is true, and if I have to do it I will because I'm not their dad and I have no obligation to protect them either.
It's important to remember that she was prosecuted for something that would put you into pound me in the ass prison in the US. 5 years and up to 200,000 fine.

If they dropped a nuke on Winnipeg today.... would anyone notice a difference?

imo Daggerfall was the most special the series ever was. Morrowind was full 3d and had a lot of writing stuff around it, oblivion had some great visuals, skyrim was polished to a mirror sheen, but daggerfall was the one that felt the most to me like an entire world. There was so much in there I still haven't seen even a fraction of it. There's so much to do that I probably won't be able to do it all (and I'm not talking about individual places or quests, I'm talking about entire gameplay systems!) because it's such a broad world.
It was something really special in a way nothing before or after has been.

I know that the place I want to live or work is somewhere that takes an hour and a half to get up all the elevators.
A lot of dumb ideas aren't dumb, they're just made dumb because people turn off their brains and treat a narrow and specific idea as an entire life philosophy.
To train a dog correctly you have to understand the way a dog thinks. Once you understand how a dog thinks, you realize their way of looking at the world is completely different than the way humans look at the world.
Though I will say that some of the lessons I learned from learning how to train a dog ended up looping back and being meaningful for humans as well.
