It’s making all of us sick. I wish I could ignore all this too. I actually tried to, but then my government decided to step in on the world state and loudly pronounce “there is no genocide!”. And then cut humanitarian funding after the international court of justice anonymously found “credibly risk of genocide”. Which makes my country now complicit if this genocide is allowed to continue. Which makes me deeply ashamed and angry.

Yeah an eye for an eye if you’re a barbarian. 30 eyes for each 1 is… something else.

Well, mods could remove the downvote button if it’s not supposed to be used.

But those aren’t stupid questions, they are questions very smartly crafted to imply a certain answer or legitimize a problem. Then they are not stupid, but smart. And often evil.

Oh I still mourn eMule haha. I always thought it was better than torrent, but torrent won for some reason - presumably because it needed more websites and servers to function and that created a market and a marketing gain. I guess I should check out I2P.

We need to develop more alternatives like federated social media or even completely make web services p2p. And then have them somewhat democratically controlled, or easily able to migrate to alternatives without cost of loosing network effects.
Especially something like amazon / ebay / paypal / ali would be awesome to replace with a “public utility” federated version. They tax so much of the sales and it all goes to psycho billionaires.

Oh thank god this is gaining traction because I’ve been having these issues for the last years more and more.

Yeah I read this www.gbryant.co.uk/posts/…/post.html Once I have a 3D printer I’ll try building one. First without electronics to see if I like the haptic.

Yeah sure. Elecom Deft, I got mislead by a review. After getting it I searched some more, and apparently the ball is too soft and the point bearing can be replaced to be zirconium instead of ruby. But I suspect I’m just more sensitive to sticktion. From what I’ve read there are “ball transfer unit” that completely eliminate sticktion. They are a bit louder and not quite as smooth, but afaik there is no trackball using it.
So my guess is that people that use trackballs simply don’t really experience discomfort, and probably don’t really feel pain either :D So back to the mouse pit with me!

I just bought a trackball but it has intolerable sticktion.
Trackball gang is a lie!

I have managed to never see an episode of The Teletubbies
I tried once. You haven’t missed much. Or maybe I’m not young and hip enough to get it.

Huh. It wouldn’t surprise me that there are some shady characters or volunteers in the “United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East”. There is bound to be. It also wouldn’t surprise me if this was just a blatant lie or misinformation from the US or Israel. Both have a solid track record of lying, like pretty much every government. I also assume they won’t produce any proof and this would be rather impossible to investigate independently. So basically this tells me nothing.
