We should be treating religion like a mind virus that needs wiping out.

The most upsetting part of this is how little time he spends fearing for his fucking life while his buddies’ news stations print articles like this.

This is a poignant illustration of enshittification.

Imagine you’re in Photoshop “retouching” your own portrait. First, you remove the little bit of makeup that smudged near your eye. Fair enough. It was distracting. But now that it’s gone, your eye sees a wrinkle and decides that’s probably distracting too.
Now the wrinkle’s gone and you’re studying the image again. Aha! A mole near your temple! That can go, too.
So now the makeup smudge, the wrinkle, and the mole are gone. You study the image again for flaws…
And that’s how it happens. Every time you “fix” something you re-evaluate and will always find something to change because your goal has slowly shifted from making you beautiful by reducing “distractions”, it’s to find and fix “flaws” which, turns out, are infinite when you take this approach.
- Comment on What did Musk and Trump fall out over? 2 months ago:
He convinced the government to subsidize the sale of his products to consumers. It makes sense on paper because we want more people driving electric cars. However, Tesla of all companies doesn’t deserve the “handout”, even though it’s to consumers. They don’t deserve the boost in sales, recognition, etc.
It’s not technically a scam (the best kind!) but it’s helping out the richest man and biggest asshole in the world, so it might as well be.

Your fatigue with it all is kind of their end game, I think? They’re doing stuff that probably should be talked about everywhere because it affects everyone. When people with authority grow tired of people complaining about it and trying to moderate it out, you’ve got problems.

Probably, yeah ☹️

Yeah, there’s no guarantee that’ll save it, but the QuadLock one has lots of videos of tests that seem convincing.
That said, optical image stabilization requires tiny, fairly-fragile parts to float the lenses. It’s kind of a miracle they survive even normal phone abuses, let alone high-frequency, shake-things-to-pieces vibrations.

Stop putting people on hold, period. We have the technology to just call back when they’re at or near the top of the queue. If they miss their call, maybe their number gets priority for an hour or something. Either way, when I get put on hold, I mostly fantasize about murdering whoever set up that system.

You don’t eat them to liberate their money. You eat them to show others of their kind what happens to those who hoard wealth away from the needy.
