- Comment on If online services (such as Netflix) only ever raise their prices, does that mean they offer less and less value for money as time passes? 3 hours ago:
Enshittification refers not just to making things crappier, but to a process in which different people benefit. iirc:
- first the customer gets a lot of value and the platform loses money (bc the service is building a customer base)
- then the vendors get a lot of value bc the platform privileges them (this is most obvious with amazon - not sure if there’s a direct parallel with netflix, maybe the rights holders?)
- then the shareholders get a lot of value bc the platform squeezes every single possible penny out of the customer and the vendors.
Netflix is very far into the enshittification process. Many years ago it was a pretty good platform. But now if you are a paying customer, you can expect the service to get continually worse.

- Comment on how to evade reddit shadowban? 17 hours ago:
Try this:
- get a different computer
- get a different email address
- use a different type of browser
- find a different place to log in (cafe, library, etc.)
- every time before you sign in, say to yourself: “I will not say anything that could possibly offend any company that might advertise there.” (you should say this aloud, but it’s OK to whisper, like a prayer)
- as you through your day, make sure you never say, do, or think anything that any advertiser would dislike.
The last two are especially important, or else you’ll just get banned again.

- Comment on In the US or in Europe can I choose the way I want to go out? like maybe like a viking by setting a boat on fire while my body is on it? Or be shot out of a cannon HST style? or whatever? 1 month ago:
I choose:
The Moriori people of the Chatham Islands … strapped [their dead] to young trees in the forest. In time, the tree grew into and through the bones, making them one.

I don’t dislike their music, it just doesn’t do it for me.
I feel the same way about Twiztid and the rest of the Psychopathic artists. They’re OK, but I don’t go out of my way to listen to them. With ICP, some songs are better than others (as is true of all musicians) but the best ones are great in heavy rotation, and most of their albums are at least half full of good songs.

fr from Feb 2024-Jan 2026 if I was listening to music, 90% of the time it was ICP. But before that there were two songs I really liked: When I’m Clownin and Hokus Pokus.
Spin the bottle
hadn’t heard that one… I still need to check out all the collaborations they did with people like Twiztid.

That’s how they get ya.
Baby: “Teke-lili! Teke-lili!”
Woman (with a hideous smile): “SKREE!”
Human: “WTF?!?”
Woman’s arm curls around from beneath, grabbing the human by the throat.
Then the woman and the baby, they feed….
- Comment on How we are brought into this world 2 months ago:
The woman’s arm naturally grows that long so she can pull the baby out by herself if need be.
