It's our job (responsibility) to grow that / fix that as better / healthier communication (no matter what you do).
I'd like to have more circles or involve myself with others for healthier ways... it naturally takes from efficiency (unless you see growing healthy people as batter efficiency and as all-rounders)

Gradualism or Grandma's Footsteps - reminds me of a "Creeping normality"...
A process by which a major change can be accepted as normal and acceptable if it happens gradually through small, often unnoticeable, increments of change.
The change could otherwise be regarded as remarkable and objectionable if it took hold suddenly or in a short time span.
==================
Metaphors related to creeping normality:
Boiling frog
Camel's nose
Lingchi
"First they came ..."
Habituation
If You Give a Mouse a Cookie
Moving the goalposts
Normalisation of deviance
Overton window
Principiis obsta (et respice finem) - 'resist the beginnings (and consider the end)'
Salami tactics
Shifting baseline
Slippery slope
Technological change as a social process
Tyranny of small decisions
Conformity
Peer pressure
Spiral of silence
=================
How to play "Grandma's Footsteps"
- 1 person is 'grandma' standing with their back to the rest. Everyone else starts trying to creep up on grandma, freezing when she turns around suddenly.
Or push prices up gradually and suddenly for food, rent, housing, inflation etc!

Using YouTube directly (without tracking filter?)
Using YouTube directly (without tracking filter) doesn't help free, libre software movements, including Mastodon I believe.
We could all use https://invidious.privacyredirect.com/ instead for better links (ad-free / no tracking on Youtube):

Focus on providing better #education or #Education ?
I think there is a clear difference and even extreme of either or bare-bones extreme... so I would go for education as everything thing else does it's own thing.

Is #nixos + everything on #distrobox the way to get out of #Windows ?
What?! That's an end of an era. #icq was cool. I preferred Yahoo messsenger back in the day though. I don't know why. Do people still IM anymore? #internet https://hackaday.com/2024/05/26/icq-will-shut-down-on-june-26-this-year/
Paradoxes as things needing balance / highly alternating things...
A "paradoxical quote" I just realised is a quote is the middle of balances like a see-saw that doesn't move but what you are actively trying to maintaining in the balance(s).
So it may seem not much happening but you are actively trying to restrict / slow down / balance things so they seem neither one thing or another (or even both extremes at the same time but oscillating or fluctuating fast / highly alternating things...)!
Overton window - horizontal version...
"Overton window" is the range of policies politically acceptable to the mainstream population at a given time - also known as the window of discourse.
Picture is my edited horizontal 'window' version of the vertical Wikipedia version (that didn't make as much sense to me vertically in the original).
On holiday in a location with poor phone signal, I am now rendered unable to use my bank account. Every time they send me a 2FA code, it takes so long to arrive that my session expires before I can enter it.
Most banks in the UK require a phone number in order to authenticate, and my bank requires all 2FA to go over text. I don't know if this is still true with mobile apps, but those have their own problems.

The problems of addictions is that naturally "being alive" means "I want to keep doing something"
- therefore being alive = trouble / can be considered part of any addiction.

Together talking we can do it (using DM is more private).
Separate and one-way public broadcast doesn't work against Capitalism.
YOU and I are imperfect - NO problem with that ! - This is the "Best we can do" ! Just get better at whatever I can give you!
☼ Freedom work (Free work for you) + #Friendship hopefully
