I know I've worked with people who work from home who are productive and useful, but I've worked with a lot of people who were working from home and all they did was offload their work to the people still in the office. Getting those people back into the office (or in some cases the field when it's not purely a desk job) will be high priority next time there's a big financial crash since efficient use of capital will matter again and working together in a space is more efficient for a lot of jobs.
It occurs to me that I'm surprised you're not running your own mastodon instance off of a pocket calculator with an RTX 4090 installed. 😜
I chose different... I chose to be boring oatmeal ranting about things nobody but me cares about!
I'm not a big vtuber guy because I don't have hours to simp for anyone except rackets, but I understand and I approve.
Chapter 16 of the book I wrote for my son is titled "The Internet is not your friend".
It talks about how these big companies want to make you think they're your friends and you should tell them all about yourself, but in reality the Internet is a potentially dangerous place so you should be careful of exposing too much of your personal information because even if you ignore companies, it's a shared space with most of the planet, all the best and worst our human race has to offer, and that's not the sort of crowd you just start offering personal information to without good cause.

guys i started no nut november and realized a week in that instanceussy is just janny ass
He's built a big body of his opinions on different subjects throughout many videos, and from that broad base his ideas are pretty coherent within that context. Now, whether it's correct is another question. It's hard to make predictions, especially ones about the future.
One thing that was really striking to me is something I've been thinking of more lately, and that's the consequences of a generation of people dying alone and miserable. It reminds me of the chapter in The Graysonian Ethic where I talk about what your life might look like if you build something or if you don't.
You're going to see two classes of people: People with families, and people who rejected families for the new answers wokeness provides. (There's obviously other classes, but I'm making a point here) The thing is, if one group is consistently happier than the other, and the other group requires converts from the first group to continue to exist, then that's a strongly negative evolutionary pressure on the ideology...

I was under the impression that mastodon had the 500 character limit hard coded in. Making it custom is an acceptable compromise for sure.
I read the light novel before it got an anime because I'm maximum weeb. I think I'm on the second volume right now.
Nice story. Some of the comfy isekais where nobody is saving the world are nice. Not every story needs to be about literally saving the world.

I still think it would be better in general to get rid of the character limit. There's no good reason for long writers to need to post 15 posts just to get their message out. I've got 60k characters since I was posting the first draft chapters of my book as I wrote it, but I really feel like ideas should be given the chance to spread their legs if they need to. Brevity may be the soul of wit, but there's more to life than being witty.
Found something really strange...
I have a bluetooth mouse, and if I have it on one side of my chair, it won't pair, but if I have it on the other side of my chair, it pairs. Once it's paired it runs perfectly.

Honestly, even though at the moment I lean slightly right, the coming extremism is something to fear, and the people on the left who are bringing this about are either idiots or lunatics or both because the backlash will hurt every group they claim to care about will be hurt immensely, and they don't seem to care.
They're blindly driving ahead with the psychopathic and idiotic measures that will justify the coming crucifixions which frankly didn't need to happen.

But fr mastodon needs to get rid of its tiny post length limit. (59,500 characters remaining)
YouTube barely breaks even. If we just switch to another search engine, there goes a bunch of Google's revenue.
I'm running my own searx instance that looks at a dozen search engines not including google, and it's a rare thing for me to have any reason to go back.

It can become a virtuous cycle. You lose more weight, which means you gain more energy, which means you want to go out and do more things, which means you do more things, which means you burn more energy, which means you lose more weight!
The key thing is to make it past that first little bit so the virtuous cycle can begin.
