I killed one last night in my bedroom. I’m doing my part

One down… how many to go?

I’d rather see us replacing train conductors. Why do we even need them? Why aren’t trains self driving? Trains regularly don’t drive due to personell shortages and they don’t drive in the middle of the night. Also trains are getting ridiculously expensive (in the Netherlands, due to privatisation) where self driving trains could be a solution to make trains affordable again.

That just makes job hunting suck even more. Now you need to also check whether LinkedIn gets you hired or passed on.

Not a particularly interesting article. Just more of the familiar story: “we need more forests, they are good for us” and “a single species going extinct can eventually collapse an entire eco system”. It is a truthful article though and I guess that’s worth something these days.

If IANA has all two letter domains reserved for countries, than why is there no .uk?

Because they don’t want to sift through tons of garbage to find the good stuff. I presume.

That is concerning, but Internet Explorer used to be the only option too. Of course things are different now, but I have faith (for lack of anything else).

NewPipe exclusively. YouTube has been unusable long before I fully moved back to FireFox.

Well thanks a lot, that’s now my fear too.

I once met a guy who was stuck in a drug enduced psychosis when I was 12 or something. It shook me pretty badly. I’m not opposed to drugs at all, but I’ve always had an irrational fear of halucigenic drugs since.

I tried YouTube in Chrome on desktop (for about 2 minutes) and I didn’t notice any difference. I’ll just keep using NewPipe on my phone though.

I know. My experience with Chrome used to be good too. And we all know what’s up now.

If Firefox fucks up, I’m fine with abandoning ship and moving on to the next thing. I’m not sure what that would be, but I’m sure I’ll figure that out once we get there.

I’ve been been a full time Firefox user for three years now. Haven’t experience a single problem like that. Haven’t really experienced any problem at all to be honest

No that sucks too. Just use flameshot instead

I have a new phone since a week or two. I really miss my previous autocorrect. It was perfectly honed to my liking. Now it’s just generic bullshit that completely misses the point of my artistic freedom. However, I’m full on re-educating that mf right now. It is on the recieving end of my wrath. Christian gay conversion camp therapists could learn a thing or two from my resolve.

That’s a blast from the past

You don’t need scalpels to operate, swiss army knives are fine. That’s just what big scalpel wants you to think.

I live it when a plan… falls apart

Yesterday I half read a Dutch (paywalled) article about the German tech enterpeneur Peter Thiel (paypal). Who was boasting about not caring about politics much, but that it was very convenient to have your own man at the top (jd vance). He claims to not believe in democracy or death (that’s the title)

I was thinking… dafuq are people like this even doing in politics and who let’s them have a say in politics? This is such a clear cut case of moneyoracy instead of democracy, it’s almost comedic.

The article, for those who care: https://fd.nl/bedrijfsleven/1531173/techinvesteerder-achter-jd-vance-gelooft-niet-in-democratie-of-de-dood
