Wait is it Willim Penn or Sean Penn who founded Pennsylvania? I’m pretty sure, but not 100%
You don’t have to search but no one will ever know if you do.

Exactly.
Almost like that’s the point.

Gee whiz, I’m a cryptic ass-eating turtle demon of the river! Now I’ll be remembered for millennia as “that weird creature with the bald haircut.”

Fish still breathe with their gills, right? It just doesn’t seem like there is really enough dissolved oxygen in water.
Don’t you want to just be sure? Go on, check. I won’t tell anyone.
- Comment on Why is Tesla market cap so high ? 6 days ago:
Here’s a related question… Why is Elon Musk demanding a massive cash salary from the board rather than typical CEO compensation of stock and performance bonuses?
Likely, he understands that the company is massively overvalued due to his hype machine. He is cashing out before it fails.
As a plus, by manufacturing animosity between himself and the board, he is preloading the ammunition for when the company fails and discards him. When he leaves, the hype machine leaves with him. The stock will “crash” which really means returning to a sane market valuation. He can easily claim that the failure was due to the board interfering with his genius. The board members either know this, or are his lackies (or both). They will ride the wave along with him as long as they can.
In essence, we are witnessing the largest pump and dump scheme in history, and it is being done in the open.

- Comment on Well, they finally got around to me 4 weeks ago:
Seems weirdly intermittent. I just ignored it and it still seems to be working. I just couldn’t play certain specific videos in certain windows. Once I opened it in a new window it seems to work, and now I know the settings I need to tweak

Unfortunately, I don’t think there is a mature enough FOSS video streaming platform. it turns out video hosting is really really expensive and complicated.

Super helpful. Thanks!

- Comment on Is it ethical for a parent to distribute inheritance based on the child(ren)'s mental capacity (aka refusing to give an inheritance to child(ren) with reduced mental capacity)? 5 weeks ago:
Here’s a tip: if you have multiple children, split everything evenly no matter what. It doesn’t matter how good your reasoning is. It doesn’t matter if one kid is an addict, it doesn’t matter if one kid needs the money more. It doesn’t matter if one cares for you in your old age and the other disappeared.
No matter what.
You are inviting nothing but misery into ALL of your children’s lives by dividing it unevenly. No matter how reasonable it is to do something else, they will always tend to think that dividing the inheritance unevenly means that you loved them unequally.
- Comment on If I wanted to make and distribute videos without profit motivate, but also with no or minimum expensive, what would be the best platform? 5 weeks ago:
I think there was a plan at one point, but yeah. Not one of OPs requirements, but something we should all consider.
The videos are going to go somewhere. YouTube is not ideal, and peertube is basically still closed unless OP is lucky enough to get onto a stable instance.
Vimeo is basically for corporate video hosting now. DailyMotion might be an option although I never really used it.
I’d guess odysee is one of the better alternatives
- Comment on If I wanted to make and distribute videos without profit motivate, but also with no or minimum expensive, what would be the best platform? 5 weeks ago:
I’ve watched some things on odysee, but also heard some pretty problematic things. I don’t recall the details but I think they have had issues with filtering neonazis and something about sketchy ownership. Hopefully someone here will correct me.
That being said, there are some open source and privacy communicators there. Louis Rossman and Naomi Brockwell come to mind.

Unpopular opinion: Charities should be morally allowed to compete for top talent on a financial basis.

We also use “Block” when it’s really mute.
- Comment on Is it possible to have a "free speech" platform that simultaneously stops "hate speech"? 1 month ago:
No. Free speech tends to mean the most powerful group determines and enforces norms through aggression, harassment, etc. Speech has consequences, and some of those consequences include harms (threats, doxing, stalking, etc.)
Mastodon is one of the freest online speech platforms I’ve been a part of, and yet also has the most rigorously enforced code of conduct. More people are free to say more things, and feel confident that doing so does not put them in danger.
Before online platforms emerged, the ability to spread a message was dependent on your ability to support it financially and logistically. Anyone can publish a newspaper on any topic, but unless you have a racist millionaire backing you up, your message won’t get very far (ahem, Deerborn Independent). Online publishing has been a haven for hate groups.
