The last decade has broken anyone’s ability to separate sarcasm from reality.

When stupid people think their opinions are as good as opinions from experts, the world edges closer to extinction.

I hear it was the South African Shitbeetle.

Well, that’s fucked up.

Excellent, thanks for the comprehensive answer!

Is there an app or site used to create these?

There’s always ‘self’.

I hope they eat well.

I don’t feel bad for deleting my account with 120,000+ karma.

They imagine this place where only rich people live and work, but don’t think to the next step of who does the things that rich people don’t care to do…so they’ll bring in poor people and then eventually complain bitterly that they either can’t get what they want done at poverty wages, or that their local exclusive society is falling apart.

In short: there is no valid reason for the ultra-rich to exist. The rising tide doesn’t lift all boats: it sinks the boat that have been tethered to the sea floor.

Except I am also severely frustrated by how crappy they are, with 50% of my checkouts requiring pressing the bloody assistance button.

I have to agree. Federation only goes a little way on the path to a proper decentralized social media system. Ideally, defederation should not be possible, and rather, community subscription should be the norm without concern over what instance it exists on.

We really need the new battery technology that we’ve been promised for the past 2 decades. Electricity doesn’t have weight. It’s how we store it, and there’s got to be a lighter and less toxic way.

Streaming services need to be federated, so there is a central search for content, and services are paid seamlessly for what’s watched on their platforms. The customer barely needs to know who delivers the content.

What’s Pico?
