Thankfully I don’t have people I need on WhatsApp, but it took some convincing.

Nowadays I only have dentist and barbershop on WhatsApp, all my folks are on Telegram, including all work communications.

WhatsApp was always lacking features; WhatsApp web can’t replace a full featured desktop client which is a must have for me; and its mobile client is inconvenient in every possible way.

This episode made me watch all of Black Mirror, and let me tell you it didn’t stand up to this one. Watch White Christmas episode and you’re good. Maybe add San Junipero, this one is really good too and it’s more optimistic.

Well, how do you define free will?

I thought about it for quite some time and defined it for myself as following: free will is possibility to make two different choices in identical (down to quantum level and below) set of two universes. That applies only to something that has a “will”, which is yet to be defined.

If being in identical circumstances you predictably make identical decisions, that doesn’t look like free will to me. Your choice was made by circumstances for you.

So yeah, chaos it is. Nothing bad in it.

The only place free will source from is quantum randomness.

Also, better believe in free will. If you are wrong, it wasn’t really your choice, and if you are right you can do more.

Telegram for family, friends, work and actually for everything I can think of.

Discord for gaming with friends, not as a messenger but as voice comms mainly.

Whatsapp for very legacy stuff, haven’t had a notification in a couple of years. Maybe it’s time to uninstall, finally.

I would agree with you if threads didn’t choose to avoid market with decent consumer protection laws, EU.

They aren’t launching at EU for a reason, and that’s good enough for me to take a stance against them.
