I love your avi/handle combo

Doesn’t qualify. They would have to trick the victim into inviting or causing it in some way.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ethical alternatives to Spotify⁩ ⁨⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:
The available evidence says otherwise. You really got your ego wrapped up in this somehow. Which is WEIRD.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ethical alternatives to Spotify⁩ ⁨⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

I’m subscribed to various music producers on YouTube

So you DO enjoy streaming music…

Even while you are being careful, you are still reading things in. He didn’t say he listens to music on YouTube. If you’re going to be pedantic, do it right.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ethical alternatives to Spotify⁩ ⁨⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:
You could still do that without paying Spotify. Then you could go and buy the music you liked each month.

Well, shit!
- Epic Games bought Bandcamp in March 2022.
- In 2023, Bandcamp’s workers unionized under “Bandcamp United.”
- In late 2023 (October), Epic sold Bandcamp to Songtradr, a music licensing company.
- As part of that sale, many of the former Bandcamp employees were not offered positions by Songtradr, particularly those involved in union organizing.
- Songtradr stated it would continue Bandcamp’s marketplace model and its “artist-first revenue share,” but declined to confirm whether certain features (e.g. user experience, Bandcamp Daily editorial) would remain unchanged.
I had no idea. Union busting, now… What a great way to show you respect the people who generate your wealth.

“So often?” I only heard about Epic acquiring them, have there been developments?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ethical alternatives to Spotify⁩ ⁨⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:
It is legal to download music from P2P networks where I live. Whether it’s ethical is another argument, but it really only has to be MORE ethical than using Spotify.

My late 20s partner has no idea what Napster is and it breaks my heart.

They’ve used large and small capital letters. What a wretched affectation.

Meh. A story is never enough to get me to finish, but I’ll put thousands of hours into KSP or Factorio. If I wanted to read a book, I’d read a book. AND I HAVEN’T READ A BOOK SINCE THE 90S.

The EU didn’t completely fragment. Could just be the next step to the UK totally walling itself off from the world.

funny how often misogyny and animal abuse go hand in hand

I like to use two spaces so that regexes and other mechanical means can definitively identify sentences.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who are the "middle class" supposed to support in the class stuggle?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
“Middle class” is a social class (like “upper class” and “lower class”), not an economic class (like “working class” and “ruling class”).

If you think having a nice car makes you closer to the ruling class than the working class, you’ve internalized the mind control and it doesn’t matter what you pick, you’re a threat.

It would take very little incentive to make me agree not to publicly criticize some small business. But it would take more than that.
