The human raised his implement once more towards the machinery, ready to do God knows what. As it turns out, God didn’t know what and was in-fact watching with extreme fascination.

I love this, this is my favorite line. Very Pratchett-esque.

Nice.

I came in here to post about having a copy of Titus Burkhardt’s Alchemy tome and DKMU Assault On Reality but I think yours might take the cake instead, as well as possibly including both of those texts.

The way I understand it, the hard limit to leave the domain is actually the only one of these rules that would trigger on Nepenthes. The tar pit keeps generating new linked pages full of trash.

I don’t believe that there is a God.

But if there is, I sure do have a laundry list of questions for that mfer that I’ll surely be asking as I’m escorted out of the pearly gates and downstairs.

I only have one resolution this year.

The King: RADICAL ANTI-MONARCHY TERRORISTS are using LENTILS to BAIT YOUR CHILDREN INTO SEX CULTS. This cannot be allowed to continue!!! We MUST remove ALL LENTILS from ANY CIVILIZATION IN THE WORLD IMMEDIATELY.

Not trans, per se, but Jesus (or at least, symbolic representations of him and what he stands for) have been hermaphroditic from the very beginning. The source point of divinity is the Union of Opposites according to alchemists - who were quite Christian for the most part.

The assignment is fundamentally flawed.

My windows partition takes upwards of 2 minutes to actually be ready to do anything, my Linux partition is ready to rock ten seconds after I push the power button and four of those seconds are intentional delay to choose a boot disc.

I didn’t care about it before, but I sure do now. Booting into windows these days is torturous in comparison.

The internet is a different place than it used to be. These days every third person you see might tell you the California fires are caused by having too many black folks in the movies and be completely sure of themselves that this is a fact. It is no longer safe to assume sarcasm when you see someone say something ridiculous.

And if you just laugh and agree with it (sarcastically) or ignore it, then you’re going to get new people seeing this for the first time, not getting that it’s sarcasm, seeing it get agreed with or at least not refuted, and now you have two people that believe this mess. Rinse and repeat. 4chan is basically a case study for this sort of thing.

Hey, give credit where it’s due.

Some people work quite hard to make sure their jargon laden flim flam has no ultimate literal meaning nor legal liability.

Tom wouldn’t be caught dead in the same hemisphere as either of these fucks

I don’t think there’s any practical way for that to happen and I expect you’d want to put tires over top of these anyway. Which will themselves be very expensive because they won’t be able to mount regular tires on them.

On the other hand every time you need to replace a wheel (one of the most easily damaged parts of your car) you’re probably shelling out a quarter of a car in cost.

Am I an influencer now?

You aren’t making any money from it, so, no.

Like it or not, people make a living doing this.

Between a choice of “you will never be arrested for anything, ever, no matter how heinous” vs “You can be arrested at any time for any reason or no reason, at the whim of your government” I cannot say with confidence which of those is worse.

That is the Fediverse. “Threadiverse” was a buzzword made up by Meta when they tried to force attach Threads to us.

I didn’t know that I wanted a Star Trek: Abridged but now you’ve put this idea in my head and I’ll never be satisfied again until it exists.

Someone must still be responsible for monitoring all this, pulling the trigger on platforms that fit the criteria, and then actually enforcing that trigger pull, though. They will be, by definition, one step behind the public at all times, following them from platform to platform to tell them “you can’t be here anymore”.

People want X (variable, not ex-twitter), the government doesn’t want people to have X, so the government bans X. The people still have X. This fits into the same nutshell that the War on Drugs does and the drugs are winning that one pretty resoundingly, and you have to actually go out in public and buy those. I don’t see a reason why the War on Social Media is going to go differently especially when anyone can set up a VPN from the comfort and privacy of their living room.
