Oh, as a topic wanderer myself (I don’t like the word “generalist”), I love and endorse this comic.
(via @simondlr’s newsletter).
Young people: We’d like to buy a house.
Capital: Pfft. Are you rich?
Young people: Uh, no? Ok. We’ll rent an apartment!
Capital: Great! Rent has increased 300%.
Young people: We can’t afford that! Sigh. Where’s the public housing?
Capital: According to the new zoning laws, public housing is illegal. Luxury condos are all that can be built.
Young people: Fuck. I guess we’re homeless, then.
Capital: Sorry, homelessness is also illegal.
I love reading ancient cuneiform tablets. Classics such as "Fuck you, this copper sucks." (Ea Nasir), "I should get more new clothes, my dad's employee gets new clothes twice a month and it's embarrassing.", and of course "The sesame harvest will die — let nobody say I did not warn you!", which is absolutely a set up for "Per my last clay tablet.".
Social media & email may be part of the problem. But if we're still like this when we have to carve our petty bullshit into clay then it's clear that we're the problem. It's us.
I want someone to make a nice simple monitor with like 7 inputs (2xDP, 2xhdmi, DVI, VGA, and composite) and then to have mechanical radio buttons on the front to switch between them.
NO AUTO SWITCHING EVER
Living in Texas, where we've had multiple summers of continual 110F+ heat and humidity, I think I have a pretty clear idea of what climate change entails and it's not more backyard barbecues.
It's people cooking to death in their homes because the grid failed. It's people dropping dead trying to work outdoors in extreme temperatures. And it's a government that doesn't care as long as they and their business patrons keep on making money.
The “Cashless Society” is a Horrible Idea
Phasing out physical money may be convenient for some, but it leaves a lot of people worse off.
You know what I keep noticing, both in real life and online? Nobody approaches their friends asking stuff like "What do you make of this?" anymore. The whole concept of "I have no opinion so I'm going to ask someone I trust and believe to be more competent in this field" appears to have vanished from our culture completely.
I sometimes do this with my friends IRL and they're dumbfounded because it seems no one else is doing this anymore. I don't know, perhaps this is a me problem. Perhaps my ego just isn't big enough for this culture. Perhaps humility and willingness to learn are weird and old-fashioned ideals that have no place in it.
Every career path in tech:

Updating my astro 101 lecture on satellites and holy crap... there are 1738 more active satellites in orbit today than 1 year ago, and 1690 of those are Starlinks.
62% of all active satellites are now Starlinks, up from 55% 1 year ago.
As long as Starlink doesn't make a single mistake in orbit, it's all fine, I guess. Which is cool, because SpaceX never makes engineering mistakes, like dumping hundreds of pounds of "fully demisable" space debris on other countries... whoopsie.
Can we just take a second here to recognize that the spam / scam calling issue in the U.S. is so bad, that someone lost for 24 hours on a trail wouldn't pick up the phone when rescuers tried to call them.
Because they didn't recognize the number.
A hiker in Colorado, who was missing for 24 hours, ignored rescuers' phone calls because "they didn’t recognize the number," Lake County Search and Rescue said.Elisha Fieldstadt (NBC News)
Back in 2008, I wrote some software for fun to generate various optimized walking mechanisms. And when I also picked up some electronics and wood working skills in more recent years, I was able to turn one of these mechanisms into an actual wireless …decarpentier.nl
Price fixing? Illegal.
Price fixing via algorithm? Hella profitable!
Theft? Illegal.
Algorithmic theft (AI)? The next big tech revolution!
Discrimination? Illegal.
Discrimination via algorithm? Innovation!
Murdering people? Illegal. Murdering people via algorithm? Multibillion dollar industry!
Basically, in America everything completely evil becomes super awesome and "innovative" if you hand off responsibility to a proprietary black box of code and victimize working people.
TIL that despite the fact that sites like rust's crates.io require you to have a github account for authentication, creating a github account solely for the purposes of authentication is against the terms of service, and if you do that, your account may be suspended:

please please please #getOffGithub but if you can't move your own projects off it yet at least stop assuming everyone else uses it
the console modding process should teach you why you should always keep your OS and web browser up to date... given the process for PS3, Wii U, Vita, PS4 etc is just going to a webpage in the browser and getting full kernel access
imagine that but on your computer or your phone
So glad I am not the only Fur that is super pumped for this! I can't wait to get back to my desk and start a new save ^^
Also, your suit is wonderful. I find those with Feline Sonas tend to be the best when it comes to cute poses 
@TrashyFur Yus! I've been really enjoying it a ton! ADA certainly has gotten quite sassy! X3
And thank you so much - appreciate it! ❤
You ever just lie back and marvel at the internet? Think about the massive scale of the infrastructure, the thousands of kms of undersea cable stringing together a World-Wide Web built on hundreds of years of electrical knowledge. Transistors too small to see, to tonnes of copper and fibre too long to comprehend.
All so I can watch '[Furry ASMR] Petting Hyena Boyfriend To Sleep'
This is actually the OPPOSITE of doomposting but:
Don't let Cohost make you think that better things aren't possible online. Cohost actually had a better conversion rate than most websites by FAR. People WERE in fact willing to pay for a site that doesn't try to trick them into watching ads or engaging for clicks. They just had a poor business plan. But I've seen posts like "guess nobody's willing to pay to not be the product..." and that's not what happened here at all, people were in fact willing to pay, heck some people were buying extra subscriptions (which functionally did nothing) just to pay MORE.
Dear tech bros,
As someone who craves routine & will happily stick with a product they like forever as long as it doesn’t change much, please quit fucking with stuff.
I’m sick of being pushed from browser to browser, app to app because companies keep being dickheads.
Stop being dickheads.
Stop inserting ads and preventing me from blocking that shit.
Stop pumping “AI” into products when nobody wants it.
I will be the most loyal user if you’d just stop fucking with stuff.
“Ford Motor Company is seeking a patent for technology that would allow it to tailor in-car advertising by listening to conversations among vehicle occupants, as well as by analyzing a car’s historical location and other data, according to a patent application published late last month.”

The untouchable peeps who decide our overall futures are 'do or die' kinda peeps.
Their decisions give them the dopamine rush they crave, but it means suicide for everything else.
You can't change them. You can only make money obsolete and private schools public - the former affecting us all personally.
