- Comment on Mozilla Foundation Calls on Tech Industry to Block ICE Contractor 6 days ago:
Something that annoys me about people who love to harp on about how bad Mozilla is because they’ve gone downhill (which they have): Who is better? Genuinely compare them to their competition. Google? Heck no. Brave? Nope. Microsoft? Absolutely not. Apple? No. People complain about how much Mozilla spends on advocacy, but then when they actually do the advocacy, they’re happy about it! They’re perpetually stuck between a rock and a hard place because they’re pulled in both directions and thus, Firefox suffers. But, are they actually a broken clock? Really?
- Comment on Where to find empty vapes? I want to harvest a battery 7 months ago:
Lots of states made flavored reusable vapes illegal, but flavored disposables are legal. Yes, it is as stupid as it sounds.

Oh, of course, it’s just their tools have gotten much better. You could have said what you just did about the internet too, and it’d also be correct, but it definitely had a big impact.

Fair, I should have said “for a bad actor”, of which I am not. I haven’t experience with the tools they’d use.

No, they’re saying it would be really easy to create a fake image that would have in the past had that level of impact.

I’m talking about the low-effort market segment that flavored juul pods, for instance, used to take up. Now, it’s flavored dispos, making your own juice, or juul-type vapes with only menthol and tobacco flavors.
- Comment on I Tried to Vape the Internet 8 months ago:
In the US, replaceable pods can only be tobacco or menthol flavored, disposables can be any flavor. Yes, it is as stupid as it sounds.

Yes, but you, who I assume follow this mindset, do buy things and) under capitalism, since you must in order to live. How, then, do you decide?
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
I think that is a useless mental model. It doesn’t help you make decisions except those that lead to revolution. The person you’re replying to is trying to point that out. If I want to buy a phone, which should I buy? Your rhetoric says “whichever one will lead to revolution”, which really isn’t helpful.
