They are absolutely stuffed with advertising, tracking, and privacy invasion:

I thought about Disqus, but the issue is that each blog owner has to enable/embed it into their blog. Disqus also fully enshittified and isn’t used much anymore, far as I can tell.

Yeah, it’s “I don’t like uppity black people” wrapped in plausible deniability.

Might want to keep that handy

My bones are so brittle. But I always drink plenty of… Malk?

So he didn’t wrestle but he gave Vince a clothesline?

Let’s also remember that Trump literally wrestled in WWE.

I just got so tired of trying to find things that don’t suck, messing with bootloaders and custom ROMs, troubleshooting device-specific problems, all of that. I’m too old for that shit now. I get people doing it, but I just said “fuck it” and got the device that mostly Just Works and pairs nicely with my mac. I know, evil blah blah, but I also think Google is worse.

That kind of shit is why I finally switched to iOS. Android’s App Store has a huge seedy ghetto.

As I learned from the “It’s Always Sunny” podcast (RIP): it’s a wig. It’s always a wig.

And if you buy any hardware from Google, count on it being discontinued and unsupported within a year. Anyone who continues to buy shit from Google is either deluded or a fool, or both.

The mind truly boggles

Same with Lowe’s. You can’t even get Halloween shit now, even though it’s several weeks away. I went into Kohl’s on Tuesday and it was all Christmas music playing.

Not true. Large-scale power plants are WAY more efficient at turning fossil fuels into work than internal combustion engines. Even if all electric car power was generated by coal (it’s not, almost half of electricity generation now is nuclear + renewables), electric cars would still have net emissions that are half of gas cars.

Why is this an issue? They’ve never caused any problems before

I dislike this take. It assumes a conspiracy among a shadowy elite, which is the same tactic often employed by the anti-intellectual crowd. If we simply write off the problem with a hand-wavy solution based on a hunch, we’re no better than those we are discussing.

Yeah, I guess that’s the plan for a while.
