I have no wish to deny the truth of this assertion but has anyone an actual citation for this quote showing it was spoken or written by Keynes?

'Thomas Cate, professor of economics, Northern Kentucky University, specializing in the economics of John Maynard Keynes:
“I do not believe that this quote is by Keynes. It appears to be a re-wording of something said by Adam Smith about the business community.“'

@marjolica The source most often identified is “As quoted in Moving Forward: Programme for a Participatory Economy (2000) by Michael Albert, p. 128” From my point of view it is the sentiment which is important rather than the author.

@failedLyndonLaRouchite thanks for this - from the link you posted it would appear that it is not the quote that is false but the attribution of the quote to Keynes. It suggested that the quote be attributed to Austin Robinson, a friend and contemporary of him.
In any case the sentiment is one shared by many

Today is a super special #fursuitfriday because it’s the birthday of this bean!

Exactly a year ago, a mysterious box arrived at my home, marking the beginning of an awesome journey for me. Attending events, making friends, having fun, being a menace to society, and so many more things.

nobody will remember:
- your salary
- how “busy you were”

people will remember:
- the time you made the printer work
- files that you didn't encrypt

Side note, one of the best things I ever did (as a YouTube creator) was add most emojis to my YouTube Studio block list.

On YouTube, the block list prevents comments from showing for other users, and puts comments in a holding area where I never have to engage with them.

Putting most emoji in that block list has caught spam, impersonation, catfishing, crypto scams, and a lot of lewd behavior. I can allow the average everyday emoji through, while filtering the crud.

Living in Houston, what it usually is for me is that I don't want to turn off the A/C.

Less easy to do this on a motorbike, but I've felt like it.

Pretty much ALL fairy tales were like that.

Before disney sanitized them so they could sale princess merchandise for small girls.

Oh, I love learning about the original fairy tales and have some on my bookshelf. It's fun to see what the differences are :revblobfoxread:


Funny how when I search in safari’s incognito mode google detects it as “unusual traffic from this IP address” but when I search through chrome incognito everything always works :blobfoxthinking:

Well that's a teenage dream realized right there. Turns out absolutely nothing stops you from telling 86Box's emulated sound card to send midi out to an actual midi device hooked to your desktop, and it just works.

So here's Duke Nukem 3D using the SC-88 on my desk in SC-55 map mode.

Sound is coming back in via the analog inputs of my audio interface and I have finally achieved "the rich people setup" of my dreams in the 90s. Totally worth it.

The USPS isn't "losing money", it's providing a service, that's the job of the government. Conservatives never talk about how much money Defense loses, and entire aircraft carriers just "disappear".

Wondering if wealth inequality is out of control?

Well, Jeff Bezos made over $7.9 million an hour last year.

In just 13 minutes, he made the equivalent of what a typical person earns in a lifetime.

Don't tell me that the rich can't afford a wealth tax.

Autism and ADHD are NOT trendy. They're more common than we thought, and particularly manifest differently in women, so all the people that were missed as kids are connecting the dots on why certain things were so much harder for them in their lives than most people. And that lets them come up with actually effective strategies.

It's a very, very good thing that lots of adults are figuring this out. Life is much easier with proper language and connecting to other similar folks!

Battery charge capacities are often rated in milliampere-hours (mAh) or ampere-hours (Ah).

The ampere is defined as coulombs (C) of charge flowing past a point per each second of time.

So if you solve for coulombs, each coulomb is however many amperes of current multiplied by each second of time elapsed.

In other words:

coulombs are ampere-seconds

A milliampere-hour, then, is 3.6 coulombs.

Tune in next time when I remember to expose another cursed unit of electricity: the kilowatt-hour. :)

Things that should go without saying: Boys are allowed to show emotion regardless of their disability status or neurotype, FFS

Dr. Amy, Psy.D. mastodon (AP)

Anyone dunking on Gus Walz for his disabilities is a garbage person who can fuck off into the sun, and anyone defending him with "He's allowed to cry because he's disabled" can equally fuck off. He's allowed to cry, full stop. We all are.

I'll have more coherent thoughts on this when I calm down but it feels like infantilizing neurodivergent folks and I will not have that dammit.

I see that people are shocked and dismayed as they learn they’ll need a £6 visa and have their fingerprints taken and face scanned to enter the EU mainland (just like when you visit the US or Canada or many other countries). People who voted to ‘control the UK’s borders’ dismayed as the EU is controlling its borders (and they’re on the outside). Best bit is that British MEPs helped design and vote for the new arrangements before we Brexited.

I wonder if it will survive? Most of the fun things I've seen on Wikipedia over the years have ended up being reverted. The only joke I know of that's survived a long time is the [cetacean needed] table entry on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cetaceans, and even that has an argument about it on the talk page.
Mark Dominus mastodon (AP)
Yeah. I think sometimes of the article "List of people with silly names", which included a list with extensive citations to reliable sources, typically something like "In spite of his silly name...", quoted from "Dick Pounder to take on new coaching role", _The New York Times_, page D3, Oct 11 1992.' for example.

Priorities. So important.

- EU-Petition to keep video games playable by forcing the publishers to NOT remove essential functions: 302.000 signatures in less than a month.

[1]- EU-Petition to tax the rich and keep our planet inhabitable: 271.000 signatures after 10 months.

[2]If you care about playing your games, please also support the other petition to make sure you still can do that and many other things, ok? :)

Some autistic people find making phone calls extremely stressful and unpleasant and will avoid them at all costs.

Please don’t try and force your communication preferences on others.

@autism101@mstdn.social So you are forcing your communication preference on others instead?

I hate the phone too, but I understand some prefer it. There is no good answer when this conflict exists.

@actuallyautistic@a.gup.pe @autism101@mstdn.social Sometimes I consider people who like the phone disabled. They apparently cannot read/write very well.
