Dead internet is only a theory. Like gravity.

If they built out a Mastodon network with government support, then it would.

Uh, Mastodon exists?

So the people killing women for partially uncovering their hair are the good guys?

The people murdering thousands of protestors are the good guys?

So the religious fundamentalists imposing doctrine at gunpoint are the good guys?

I think the people protesting for their lives and freedoms are the good guys, but that’s just me.

It turns out that people are better at most things than non-people.

Thanks, but I do not have an IT department. I am provided a computer for my use and at my discretion. I am essentially my own IT.

I am having trouble with Windows lately, and I believe that a new OS may help me be more productive, so it’s on me. I am not confident enough to eliminate Windows entirely in case it does not work out, hence the wish for dual-boot.

The fact that helium is such a rare, irreplaceable, and scientifically useful material makes it wild to me that we use it to fill kids’ party balloons.

Can Elon hurry up and put a chip in my brain so I can erase this knowledge?

What would happen if you disabled all connections on a Tesla? Or put it in some kind of Faraday cage? Would it just shut itself down, or would it keep running in its current state?

Florida once again forgets that Black Mirror is a cautionary tale.

It’ll be more popular than Twitter in a week. Not that it’s hard…

I do like the VPN, but the drive and the email turned out to be untenable for me.

The upload/download options are just too limited and often require weird workarounds. The pricing and constant upselling, along with the opaque process for downgrading are all a little off-putting. It’s no different from what other companies do, but I guess that’s the point.

FYI, MintPress news (featured in the screenshot) is funded by shadowy oligarchs associated with Putin, Assad, and Iran. That’s how a journalism student with no real world experience founded and funded a million-dollar news source.

I’d trust this app about as far as I can throw Putin.

Surely 18k gold would be close enough, right?

Israel has mandatory service.

They could have just said “Israeli” but that wouldn’t get as many clicks.

By the same token, you could just read the Cliff’s Notes and burn down an acre of rainforest to achieve the same results.

I’m not pirating. I’m building my model.

Why do people love to hate on Firefox? People have been harping on Pocket for years as a waste of resources that hardly anyone uses, but now that they are eliminating it, people are coming out of the woodwork to wax nostalgic?

It turns out that making a modern browser is a huge, complex task. It’s been said that it is more on par with maintaining an OS than another type of app. Mozilla is not perfect but why are we so quick to let the perfect be the enemy of the good?

It’s pretty tone-deaf to criticize layoffs on the same article that acknowledges their historic dependence on Google’s rapidly collapsing monopoly. Where is the money going to come from?

A poorly thought out blog post about the only major browser that isn’t built on Apple, Google, or Microsoft.

Didn’t Escobar Inc. already try this?

Looking forward to the JerryRigEverything video.
