@mathlover @Sphinx Geez, nice catch. So true.
@mathlover good luck. Unfortunately, Twitter is harder to quit than nicotine because of the extrinsic dependencies AND the intrinsic ones.
ICYMI: Australia wants Google and Facebook to start paying news publishers for using their content 📰
The country's competition regulator released a draft code today outlining the process. Google said it's "deeply disappointed" by the move 👇 https://www.cnbc.com/2020/07/31/australia-to-force-google-and-facebook-to-pay-news-publishers.html https://twitter.com/Ryan_Browne_/status/1289220373678972930 #CNBC #Finance #Australia #Google

@soup_reviews ...fuck... that.
@alex Posts like this remind me, though it's nice to feel you are good at something, it should not be your whole identity. This person speaks as if it is and may need more in their life. It also reminds me to keep perspective on what is relevant. This is an example of how some people have fallen for the pointless practice of further division and segregation. They focus on how we are different, not, how are we the same. Squabbling for the minuscule emotional charge to feel important or unique but the unstated affects of dividing a tight nit subculture are potentially infinite. Here is an excerpt from "Communism Under the Microscope". This epic gamers post is a small example of how obsessed our culture has become with the practice of cultural division, and how they are unaware they do it since it's veiled under pride, egoism and superiority. I wish this gamer was as passionate about personal liberty and the economy. Haha!! Don't get me wrong, games are important but geez.
@lain Whoa!! You crushed it. Thanks for answering all the questions I was to lazy to research myself. Great article. And thanks for breaking up the reading with interesting pics of interesting personal experiences, not stock Sci-fi-cyber computer pics that aren’t remotely accurate in the world of computing but stimulate the casual reader. Ha!
Right now I think we need the words of the Great late MArtin Luther King Jr.
Here are his words on riots:
Here is clear example how some "entity" wants more than peaceful protests. This guy who looks like he has dyed blue hair and sunglasses, gets handled by a small group of peaceful protesters and the first thing he worries about is keeping his glasses on. Obviously trying to protect his identity. He carries a hammer to the protest to make projectiles out of things on site. Unfortunately, the cops can't wade into the protest line to stop him from breaking apart the street. It's a discouraged tactic because police will disappear in the crowd. Either way, this is extremely fishy. Who is planting these people or who are they in general? Any Thoughts?
Social media is making things worse. I worry that education re logic is severely lacking and that people are not being taught how to think critically. If grievances are not addressed, violence will result-so says most studies. I give you the Patriots at the Boston massacre and the Boston tea party who revolted, mostly, over a tax... It can provoke good social outcomes IF the issues aren't otherwise addressed.

Worst trained PD in the country. Seriously!
@JohnRivers More so, they don’t know what they want to say or how to speak.
@coolboymew Honestly, this is one of the most emotionally conflicting post I've ever seen. Also, after a brief search, I was surprised how many people die in Applebee's.
Hi, New to decentralized social media... social media in general.
I chose Mastodon because if its uncensored nature and chose QOTO.ORG because of its philosophy.
