I’m actually thankful. It’s good to know a little about the bleeding edge of science, and there presumably are people who really do understand it. The fact that I don’t, means that there are smart, passionate people out there doing the work. Not every show needs to cater to the lowest common denominator.

They’re definitely building on each other, but they’re definitely ELIApplyingForMyDocotrate degree.

I don’t think it’s on purpose. He got his before the vasy majority knew what a shithead Musk is.

I love watching Spacetime, but also feel like dum-dum-brain after watch. Me no think good enough to watch this show.

If I knew about a sign in the river as a teenager, I wouldn’t destroy it, but moving it upriver so it took longer to go under the bridge might have been fun.

I’m mostly in the same boat. If you really want to know my kink-search-history, I really DGAF. The morality is nice to think about but it’s all about your personal morals in a lot of cases.

YOU SHOULD INSTALL LINUX

Which of those are not “advertising” of one sort or another? Twitter was a dumb idea to start and I still just don’t see any appeal.

FB had my friends (now is a stupid cesspool of echo chamber idiocy.

Insta was photo-based FB Lite.

Fark>Slashdot>Digg>Reddit>Lemmy was/is about community and sharing of ideas and thoughts. Each had its own strengths and weaknesses, but the anonymity gave everyone an equal opportunity to participate.

The early days of Twitter seemed to be 10,000 people yelling in a room and nobody listening. Then celebrities took over and companies followed. Enshittifying it early on in the process.

Both can be true. I’m reducing my usage of the REALLY BAD social media and trying to make THIS social media better.

How are you producing animals then?

I loved my PebbleSteel but the build quality just wasn’t there. Had two go bad after a very short time with button issues. When Pebble got sold i begrudgingly moved to an Apple Watch and have been ok with it. I do wish Apple offered an E-ink display tho. I’d gladly trade display colors and screen resolution for a multi-day battery and lower prices.

I last launched Minecraft about 4 years ago. Before that, I don’t even remember what games I might have played on my computer. The last console game I played with any regularity was GTA 5 on console, and once I beat the single player game I pretty much stopped. I simply don’t have time to spend on games I guess. I do have both Cribbage and Sudoku on my phone. Probably play them a combined average of 2-3 hours a month.

True. My wife specifically requested a Moissanite. Most engagement rings are (sadly) still natural diamond.

Pedantry because funny: Diamonds and Roses aren’t man made either. On a more serious note, some things aren’t beautiful because they last but because they are fleeting.

I disagree. They ARE pretty. Just not as pretty as a rose or a sunset and yeah best used as industrial tooling.

Bullshit. No way does Twitter make anywhere near a profit, and that’s NOT taking into account the payments on 44Bn.
