  • I'm cutting FB and IG entirely, is there a way to see content there without an account?

  • Thanks for the info, I'll keep an eye out. Knowing the term will be very helpful so thank you for that.

  • Did you read the post?

  • I have an idea that I want to share but I suspect that it will be removed if I add it to a more recognized social media site

  • Well, the thing is that this is not about creating collector's items or trying to make money or anything, this is something I would imagine more akin to a zine in terms of distribution. I used the term "trading cards" more in the vernacular sense to give an idea of what their physical description might entail, not that you might literally try to get kids to buy them and trade them or anything. I neither expect nor want this to be like a business idea, just a means of disseminating information that would be hard to track and remove. By making them physical and maybe encouraging people to take pictures to post on social media (inasmuch as people are safe to do so).

    There’s something about that kind of concise structure

    They're really not that much unlike the types of flash cards that students might use to prepare for a test, honestly. Easy, short, digestible information.

  • To be clear, I do not personally have to means to do this. Let's just say that if this entire thing is left up to me, there's no way it'll ever get completed. I have some health problems that would almost certainly delay things indefinitely, and anything that would cost money or require someone to know their local community is completely outside of my means.

    That said, thanks for sharing the idea. I'd also say that you can sometimes find old lino blocks at antique stores and those sorts of places are usually more than happy to accept cash.

  • Okay, then, I'm probably right to be paranoid. Thanks for letting me know.

  • Yeah, lol, I wrote all that out and immediately after pressing post that exact thought popped into my mind. I guess I'm not the only one who remembered that.

  • That's funny, I just wrote a comment about the Iraq thing in my other comment, probably while you were writing this, lol. And yeah, I meant "Trading Cards" more in the common vernacular sense, it would be far more effective if they were distributed as a complete set.

    Either way, I'm not going to be pitching this to anyone outside of Lemmy. Again, this is where I want to remain anonymous. Anyone involved with any such project would do well to stay hidden, as they may become targets. Call me paranoid, but I'd rather be safe than disappeared.

  • OP here again.

    I also recall this exact strategy was used during the Iraq War, where US soldiers were given trading cards of Iraq officials and high-value targets to help soldiers learn to identify them. Knowledge is power.

    Another sort of tangential thought: Are there any DIY woodworking / metalshop people out there know how to make an old-fashioned printing press? Like, the ones with a hand crank? If you have the means and the desire to do this, bringing back the Gutenberg style press would mean a means of printing information that can't be traced to any specific printer or computer tech, and heat sensors wouldn't be able to pick it up from outside as they could with electronic devices. Bringing back old school tech could be very helpful to create and distribute information anonymously, plus by creating it in physical form it can easily be photographed and posted online.

  • How are these actual Spotify subscription tiers? It honestly sounds like something from a parody.

    Jump

  • I bet if they added a tier that allowed you to visit Daniel Ek and kick him square in the junk that would be pretty popular.

  • Crispin Glover - Clowny Clown Clown [Avant Garde/Dark Cabaret] (1989)

    Jump

  • Follow up to this post: In the video, Glover makes reference to a man named Mr. Far, followed by a shot of himself wearing the outfit he wore on a (sort of) famous episode of David Letterman. Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jm2CbuTdTtE The episode aired on July 28, 1987, and the "Clowny Clown Clown" music video is from 1989, according to the video in the OP. Also, Mr. Farr's full name is Rubin Farr, and Glover played him in the movie Rubin & Ed (1991), which I have not seen but I think I probably will now.

  • Hey, thanks for the assist. I got it working just fine, I'm really impressed with the function. Been using qB for years and had no idea this thing was even there. This is a real game changer, thanks again.
