As someone who never really got along with strangers ever, I kind of feel like a bad survivor in a shitty apocalypse.
I socialise at festivals, then I forget the people and they forget me. Otherwise, it’s always been more bother than use.
Sad to hear you’ve lost something though…

I suspect this might be cultural. In some parts of Switzerland (e.g. rural LU) you’re expected to greet strangers walking past you. Do that in Zurich and you might get the same kind of negative feedback. OTOH, OP’s case was more than a courteous “hello”…

Behold: the Rapoo MT750S
I’ve bought a cool dozen of these, as they’re affordable, got 2 scrolls and nav buttons, have a good USB dongle, and I can also connect them to other devices by BT. Oh, and I’ve only ever thrown away 2 of them, as the silicone cover tends to come off after more than a decade of heavy use.
I’m so afraid of these enshittifying, I’ma buy myself another batch. For the apocalypse.

Here’s my biggest pet peeve (relevant to the scenario): the cancelling of bi-folk. There is a forced dichotomy of men being either hetero- or homosexual, with homoerotic choices somehow automatically negating all heteroerotic choices by framing them as perfidy (i.e. pretending to be heterosexual to pass in society).
Freddie Mercury was *bi*. NOT GAY. *Bi*. I have no issue with gays revering him. I do have issues with gays trying to deny his heteroromantic side (see Mary Austin).
Rant over.

Bold assumption that our descendants will have the kind of general education that would result in “extra homework” for “history students”. I imagine a future scholar to be like Kenneth from 30 Rock

- Comment on Are datacenters in space more lucrative than on earth? 2 months ago:
Of course you would. But I also don’t quite believe you. Everybody lies on the internet, and when I see corporate PR being regurgitated by someone pretending to be “just one of us”, indignant when confronted, expecting the benefit of the doubt, I call it out.
Well just the other day I was doing my regular human activities with my biological friend Frobert, and just between consuming two Earth crustaceans, we came to talk about the benefits of alchemy to transmute people into gold. We’ve got the idea from Grok.
It doesn’t matter to me whether you’re an actual shill or someone genuinely uninformed whose talking points reflect whatever a shill would say. If you give me the Musk fan impression, I’m gonna give you the Musk fan treatment. Call me patronising if you want 🤷.
- Comment on Are datacenters in space more lucrative than on earth? 2 months ago:
Because "planning to" in this case is practically code for "grifting their investors with fairytales", especially with these people. The self-driving car, the underground tunnel that would replace motorways, the chatbot that would replace people, the Mars colony, these are all lies no matter if it’s Musk saying them or anyone else trying to get some of the same easy money.

There doesn’t have to be a reason to any of this. Hooligans cause damage any chance they get. They do this at home too. They are permanently at war with everyone and everything.
They’re pests. You don’t reason with cockroaches.
- Comment on Are datacenters in space more lucrative than on earth? 2 months ago:
Nah, man. I have an issue with your wording. You have not been "hearing a lot of talk". You are quoting one specific lie of a prolific grifter.
Nobody in their right mind agrees with this. If you had put your question as "Elon Musk, owner of a satellite launching company, as well as several money burning pits, wants others to pay him to put some of those money burners into orbit. Is there any sense to this?", the answer would be trivial.

Don’t be looking for reason in racism. I grew up in Eastern Europe and truth be told, I can’t claim to be free of it myself. The story rings believable to me…
