The current TechBro fetish, just like the Metaverse was, and the NFTs, and the Crypto.

When the bubble burst, which will be the next TechBro fetish?

I wish, what I’ve seen of it is amazing, but I don’t have the money or the specs to do it. 🥲

I took the month of Halloween as an excuse to replay all of Silent Hill and it has been a fantastic experience, very nostalgic. I’m already playing the 4th game and when I finish it I’m going to jump into playing short horror games on Itch.io.

I can’t agree more.

I don’t know what are you talking about. I didn’t mark the post as nsfw and when I try to modify it, the nsfw option is disabled.

You’re one of mine 🤜🤛

For me the one of the greatest is the Sputnik, it was the beginning of something amazing.

I know all that, it’s what causes me the most frustration. In the end the “Greatest Achievement of Mankind” is not much different than a guy jumping to touch the ceiling because they told him “bet you can’t reach”, and after that, unless they find oil or some shit like that on the moon, they’re never coming back… At least the Americans, since the Chinese do plan to establish “something” there, at least to show they can.

Something, anything in the freaking moon.

Why haven’t we been back there in, like, 50 years? That mission was done with computers that were less powerful than my stupid phone.

Anything, a telescope, a transmitter of I-don’t-know-what shit, a lunar farm, a Coca-Cola or Disney advertising, ANYTHING!

I hear you OP, I too have to watch all the content in one sitting or else I get an aneurysm and an epileptic seizure at the same time. /S

In my opinion, enshittification occurs when, among other things, the user experience is “ruined” in order to generate profits by offering “improvements” that are nothing more than going back to previous states of the platform, only now paying or paying more.

While it could happen that some parts of the Fediverse could become Shitty, it seems impossible to me that it would happen in the whole fediverse. There’s always the option of blocking problematic instances and such. And anyway, users who enter the fediverse do so mostly fleeing from enshittification, so, I think, we are less willing to put up with that kind of bullshit and will leave sooner rather than later, maybe creating something new (and better, if possible).

I don’t remember if it was when I was 18 or 19, but there was a birthday when my plan was to invite my friends over for pizzas and have a good time at home. I had communicated this very clearly to my family. The thing is that when my friends arrived at the time I told them, my family didn’t have anything ready, I asked them what was going on and they didn’t answer me. My friends, who lived far away, had to leave at dusk. It was then that my family became active, and they put me to make the pizzas, the appetizers and so on, all for them and without my consent or knowledge. Eventually my friends came to think that I didn’t want them to eat pizza or be there to celebrate, and it made me feel really bad. I think ever since then, when my family asks me what I want to do for my birthday, I say nothing, since they will still do whatever they want.

It was just a tweet… And then they say that the “wokes” are the hypersensitive snowflakes?

Whenever I see on Youtube Shorts something too crazy to be true, I immediately do a quick research and don’t stop until I have three sources (counting wikipedia) to corroborate the information.

En verdad no tengo problemas con la edad para votar actual.

Estoy convencido, como alguien ya adulto que pasó por la adolescencia, de que los adolescentes no tienen idea de que es lo que quieren en la vida, son muy volubles y manipulables y no es hasta que llegan a la adultez que pueden empezar crearse una idea de cuáles son sus ideales politicos. Vamos, incluso los adultos no lo tienen muy claro hasta que están más cerca de los 30 que de los 20, pero aumentar la edad de votación hasta las 30 o más sacaría a muchos de votantes de la ecuación, la mayoría de ellos gente con ideas progresistas.

Los 18 quizá no sea ideal, pero es aceptable. Hablas de Greta, por lo que he leído recientemente ella a sus dieciocho ha madurado aún más sus ideas, dándose cuenta de que los problemas son más sistemático, algo de lo que quizá no era consciente a sus 16. En lo personal, hay un montón de cosas que no consideraba a mis 16 que no fue hasta mis 22, cuando pude votar por primera vez, que me di cuenta de ellas.

Hey, that sounds cool! I’ll give it a try.

Every day is Cat days if you’re lazy enough.

I love the detail of the frase “Walk Time” as the Dog eyelashes, pretty clever and funny.

It’s hardly related, but I once had a nightmare that I was back to high school and had to take an exam on integrals, but since I didn’t know anything I just repeated to the teacher (who strangely was my college teacher) that I was an arts student.

When I woke up, I asked my friends who were studying engineering what integrals were, none of them gave me a satisfactory answer, so to this day I still have no idea what they are.
