@futurebird @brodnig I'm dead set on spending not a dime I don't have to from now until 2029. First, I won't contribute to an economy under an administration that denies climate change and wants to promote coal and oil. Second, I'll have funds to invest/contribute/use when we're ready to start planning for and building the future again. Save Every Dime Until Twenty-Twenty-Nine.

@ShadowJonathan@tech.lgbt I'll add to that: If I wind up hearing your ad and actually notice and remember the name of your product or service, I will boycott your company for the rest of my life. I don't encounter ads much these days, but still will *never* buy any "name brand" I remember commercials for when I was a kid. I'll go out of my way to buy "generic" products in order not to reward advertising and brand promotion.

@f_beaudet@cosocial.ca Again, Word *used* to be something called a "word processor". How, exactly, do you "subscribe" to a word processor? Everything I hear about Microsoft these days is just bizarre and I can't even parse most of it.

@jimbob As a Windows outsider, I'm finding it harder and harder and funnier and funnier to try to picture what using Windows must be like now. Like *where* are all these unwanted AI things being shoved in? An OS's job is to let you run other software... it isn't supposed to be a "thing" in it's own right any more than necessary and should just stay out of the way. I'm half tempted to download a Windows torrent and run it in QEMU to see what it *is* now. Probably never will though.

Does any country have measuring tick marks (inch/centimeter) on their currency?

I think about this every time I use a dollar bill to (roughly) measure something. A dollar is just a tad over six inches in length, so it sorta works.

I always think there should be real marks (inch on one side, centimeter on the other) along the back edge of all bills (or a least one dollar bills) 'cause they're a standard thing we all probably have in our pocket at any given moment.

I wonder if Trump is starting to regret not being able to threaten to take away funding from public broadcasting anymore?

It looks like Mauna Loa Observatory data is down. Is this a technical glitch, or an intentional attack by the science denying disgrace to humanity currently in the White House? It looks like no new data since Dec. 31st. https://keelingcurve.ucsd.edu/ https://www.co2.earth/daily-co2 #co2 #ClimateCrisis #ClimateChange #science #data #sabotage #WarOnScience #PublicData #MaunaLoa

@Rushkoff I think it's easy to underestimate how important reverse chronological order is -- and how much algorithmically manipulated feeds prevent discourse. Imagine trying to have a town hall conversation when the most shocking and loudest comments made by anyone keep echoing around the room without getting old and going away and there's no guarantee anyone will be able to hear what anyone is saying right now. Wouldn't work.

"Israeli strikes kill 30 Palestinians, including children, as Gaza ceasefire inches forward"

Inches forward, how, exactly?

Has Israel, on any single day since the beginning of the ceasefire, ceased fire?

Has there been a single day since the start of the ceasefire during which Israel didn't actually kill anyone?

If so, I missed it.

@nickapos@mastodon.oncrete.uk @f_beaudet@cosocial.ca I'm curious when that started to happen? I've been a Linux user since 1995 and have only recently *heard* of "software subscriptions" via threads like this. It sounds like you basically can't do anything without an internet connection. If so, at what point is your computer no longer a computer but just a network appliance for using cloud stuff? I'll admit I've not installed an email client in years and use gmail in a browser, but that's as close as I get to all that.

@Pepijn@mastodon.online There was apparently a cow (young bull) that one of my older brothers rode often. Not sure if that means he rode it like a horse able to direct it or just sat on it while it rambled. I'm in the "No" bucket, but I know I have at least one relative has, in fact, sat on a bovine and used to do so regularly as a child.
