“Because the truth is, tech doesn’t have an image problem. It doesn’t have a message problem. It has an intention problem. What’s wrong with the axe murderer who broke into my house is not that he hasn’t successfully persuaded me to buy into his narrative. What’s wrong is that he’s trying to kill me with an axe. Similarly, when you launch a product that’s designed to put millions of people out of work, block access to sources of verifiable truth, replace human creativity with slop, and lower the barriers to every sort of atrocity, the problem isn’t that you haven’t told the public a good story about those things. The problem is that you are trying to do them.”

Everyone should be aware of nitter.net

for any address to twitter you can replace the “x.com” with “nitter.net” and you will be able to browse as if you have an account. Lifesaver.

Similarly, imginn.com works for most Instagram addresses. I still haven’t found one for Facebook.

I already knew Jianghu Legend AU Sasuke kept Itachi's sword, I just didn't notice it was the same sword Itachi used during the clan massacre.

Then I saw Sasuke taking care and hugging Itachi's sword so close to him in his portrait art... its bittersweet memento 🥺

heres a post for that

*staring at the Love&Deepspace fandom* what the hell is going on in there

[this-dude-over-here]

Love And Deepspace fandom etiquette is so fucked on the Chinese side it's almost hilarious. Like, I can't possibly lose more braincells reading all this shit.

• "We want more main story updates for our favorite character before other unrelated updates are released! It's horrible that they added a 6th character before updating the current ones!"

–> Oh, okay, understandable to feel disappointed about that—

• "But the real issue is that the new character looks too foreign, looks gay, is slightly too tan, and his character seems misogynistic and rape-y!"

–> Wait, I thought you were all perfectly fine with the character who's literally a terrorist and gang leader, the doctor who doesn't know medical ethics while fucking you in his office, your upstairs neighbor who stalks you and kisses you while you sleep, and your incestuous relationship with your adopted brother, so what makes this guy different?

• "He's different because his teaser tag-line said 'be careful about the wolf you let in', which could encourage women letting a dangerous man come into their house to rape them!"

–> That's his motto because he's literally a werewolf?

• "But it's different, because they also used the number 731 in a story months ago, which is related to the 731 Japanese Unit from WW2 and is controversial, so remove him!"

–> But that is a completely separate story related to a different character and not for this guy at all. And that story was released in April, so why are you bringing it up now?

• "We didn't bring it up before this because we didn't know it was in the story until now, since we don't read the main story, because it's written so stupidly and is inferior to us intelligent fans, so we don't bother!"

–> ...You don't read the main story? Then why was it an issue in the first place that your own favorite characters main story was postponed for this new characters introduction?

• "That doesn't matter! It's about content! And thats also why we've reported the game to the CCP for its clear themes of rape and support of Japanese atrocities in WW2, so they'll remove the new character!"

–> Right. So they removed the new character now... and are also being heavily questioned and pressured by the CCP to the point where all future content will likely be completely censored and the main story will be jumbled without the place of their newly planned character, and that's if the game survives the criticism by the CCP at all. Like, the game servers literally might shut down and investors might pull from the company.

• "That doesn't matter! 😊 It's removed so we won!"

So this is not a plea for money. This is something that surprised me, and chatting with people on discord, they were unaware of as well.

Discovered last year I couldn’t look at my 2015 MacBook Air without it triggering nausea and migraines, and figured the screen died. Have been getting by on my phone, but concluded I really need a laptop again.

Saved up, realised I could afford a brand new MacBook Neo, and got one.

-And I couldn’t spend more than five minutes looking at the screen without massive eye strain, nausea, vertigo, and if I pushed it, I-need-to-lie-down-in-a-dark-room-for-hours migraines.

Looking up MacBook and Eyestrain explained what is going on. The liquid retina displays that Apple currently has uses Pulse Width Modulation or PWM. In order to give the screens a deeper depth of colour and contrast, PWM flickers between several hundred to thousand times a second.

And there is currently no way to turn it off. There are settings and apps to reduce it, but there is no way to stop the screen from flickering. Checked Apple forums, called Apple Support, and the time I could look at the screen kept shrinking. Got the laptop Tuesday, returned it Friday, today is Sunday and I’m still dealing with a vertigo migraine.

For MacBooks, it seems to vary on the computer model and the software it uses. In retrospect, the issue with my MacBook Air started after a major software update.

And it’s not just an Apple thing. Current Windows and Android screens do the same thing. There’s even a Reddit for people who are sensitive to PWM flickers to help find computers and screens that won’t trigger eyestrain and headaches.

So, yeah. This week has been a learning experience. But for those who are prone to headaches and migraines, this may be something to be aware of, cause I was not.

I got into it with a man at work bc at check in he requested “absolutely no housekeeping. I don’t want anyone coming into my room” and 2 days later his room is a filthy mess and he’s demanding to know why nobody came to clean the room. I told him it’s bc he refuses housekeeping and a DND sign on his door. He told me “that was a test to see if your hotel provides proper customer service!” And I’m like “…so you wanted them to essentially break into your room against your own wishes to provide a service that you refused?” And he just kinda stared at me and asked for fresh towels.

[gluten-free-pussy]

Lmao also I had my half empty water bottle on the desk and a lady comes in and goes “thank you!” And reaches for it and I’m like “uhhh that’s mine? It’s literally almost empty” lmao and she shouts “why did you offer me a used water bottle?” “Ma’am I didn’t? You tried to grab it???” Whatever is going on I blame on FIFA

[uncertainlys]

i hope everything works out in the end because i am so so scared
