  • Wow. Talk about projection.

  • It is a good kind of hate, the hate of fascists, and they are bad people. People who hate fascists are better than people who support fascists. Right-wing is made up of fascists, or people who tacitly support fascism.

  • "Labour Market"

  • Very vaguely related, I had a somewhat-friend in college who told me about her, her twin, and her year younger sister would fight constantly all the time. Imagine 3 close aged kindergardeners just constantly at each other's throats when you were really not ready. They were so fed up that they went into the kitchen placed the three of them in equal distances away from the center, and then gave them each a knife and said "Go! If you hate each other so much, kill each other!"

    The all started sobbing and hugged each other, and got along a lot better after that.

    That's...def trauma territory, but, it's an example that human instinct to divided resources (emotional attention from a parent is REQUIRED for children's psyche) isn't darwinian. America specifically touts Survival of The Fittest as THE default human psyche and I find that it's just not true.

  • I always like the soft clicks it made when communicating on the internet, after the screaming noise, when it settled down. Soft hum of the computer and little clicks as I read a forum post.

  • Mozilla downsizes as it refocuses on Firefox and AI

    Jump

  • A reminder that there are many firefox forks that exist if base firefox is adding unwanted things or you might have different wants, but sites will still "see" firefox in terms of compatibility. I'm using Librewolf with some annoyances (it doesn't let things fingerprint to the point that it can't even get your current time), but overall I like it.

  • FCC to declare AI-generated voices in robocalls illegal under existing law

  • They spoof numbers. It almost always is a number from my state or the area code, very rarely do I get calls from out of state and they are all already labeled "spam risk/telemarketer" when they come in.

    Also thank you for writing this comment, I was going to say ios had no way to block unknown numbers, but I searched to double check myself and they finally do have that option! It may have been around for quite awhile, I hadn't checked for a long while.

  • You're tearing me apart!

    Jump

  • What is it about short vertical video that makes people froth insanely at the mouth? Don't "china" me on it, people whine over youtube shorts, instagram reels, they poopoo on snapchat, loathed twitter stories, and thought vine was a stupid idea. It feels like an ancient redditor thing, but I was in the 11 year club too and it's just a different type of format for media, media which can be used in many different ways, as always. Like how internet video generally is different to TV.

  • jokes aside, it's just not a really attractive title.

    I've played 48 hours in one of the games in there, Traveller's Rest, about running a tavern. It has money, supply, employees, trends etc. But I'm not enjoying it because Yay Capitalism! It's because when you're running your own cute shop with virtual money it's fun. I do like the genre, but being reminded of the systems that are causing a lot of real world shit is just a bad title.

    But I guess "Business Sim Sale" wasn't flashy enough.

  • Retiring House Republican says $174,000 isn't enough money for members of Congress: 'Most of us don't have wealth'

    Jump

  • I have no type of economics experience, but what if representatives of a demographic of people should be paid the median wage of those people, with high punishment for corruption and bribes?

    If they would like to earn more, they should lift their states's lowest wages. This goes down to all levels, a mayor of a city only earns the median wage of the city. It is a civil servant job after all, it shouldn't be glamorous.

  • The current state of Twitch

    Jump

  • Twitch is no longer a gaming only platform. It went full circle back to being an everything streaming site. People chat, people draw, people code, people make stuff with their hands. It's been that way for awhile.

  • We're going in the wrong direction

  • What the hell kind of picture is attached? Someone broke their chair over litter and is in the middle of running away? I get the litter going with the non-environmentalist 'cause gay but???

  • Student loan payment restart has been marred by errors, from late notices to incorrect bills

    Jump

  • I wish! I was trying to login because the government emailed me to remind me and who my servicer is. So THEY know that it's there somewhere. My service provider probably has the account but I guess lost the data, but they still have SSN + an account somewhere. Just kinda bullshit in general because they aren't answering emails because of an influx of communication, so call center time with probably hours of wait.

  • Student loan payment restart has been marred by errors, from late notices to incorrect bills

    Jump

  • This reminds me that my loan servicer sent me a reminder, to which I could not log on and they couldn't recover my info through even SSN so I emailed them. I never got a response. Should...probably look into that.

  • Google adds a switch for publishers to opt out of becoming AI training data

    Jump

  • This overall bullshit of doing opt-out fucking sucks. Opt-IN! Pissing off people and the. going "oh well there's an opt-out" is so stupid. New experimental features that don't directly benefit the user should be that they must have to opt-in manually. Off by default.

  • I know you mean satiric as satire but I sort of read it as "sarcastic" which fits with your reply, lol. A weasel that is ineffective on the internet, because satire is dead.
