And now we’ve got microstone pollution everywhere 😔 such a shame

This but with perl compatible regular expressions

Fairphone looks really cool, but I feel like too big for my weak little hands

I’d probably just refurb an old old Android phone. Would love to buy hardware that is more ethically sourced though

I’m legitimately curious about their takes on this…

So this is NOT normal? I’m a Frankenstein ('s monster (fuck off)) amalgam of various tics, mannerism, and attitudes that I’ve seen expressed by people I admire.

Do regular people just roll the dice on their personality and go with it? What if they roll a bad personality?

Some people take waaay more than 14 years to figure this shit out

They ripped off Stanley Parable!

The back of my jacket caught fire once around a firepit. Can confirm that “stop drop and roll” fixes that situation really quickly.

Probably only time I’ll need that reflex though 🤞🏻

Yeah the rewiring of patience is startling. Like sometimes I’ll look over a friend’s shoulder at something that sounds like it’s going to be interesting, only to see them flick it away before anything has even happened. Like what was your queue that this video wasn’t worth your 20 seconds? Maybe they should have waved their arms or said something shocking to grab your attention?

I know it’s old fashioned of me, but it’s so weird to have this (and I mean no offense) schizophrenic stream of av content whipping by, with ads, extremism, and product placement interleaved with micro journalism, education, and genuine attempts at communication.

Sorry I don’t know what this rant is about. I’m preaching to the choir here. I’m just nervous because my wife is having surgery today. Anyway thanks for the distraction, back to worrying lol

Click-SLAP click-SLAP, click-SLAP click-SLAP

You could have said the same for Internet Explorer some years ago, and they got their lunch eaten despite being free AND the default owned by a monopoly

I mean I boycott products if I don’t agree where the money is going. Nestle, Amazon, Israel (BDS), etc etc. Everyone who has the capacity should at the very least try to avoid funding people and projects they think are detrimental to life.

Wow thank you for sharing. I grew up poor and grubby too, but my folks were health food nuts, so I think I got spared the worst of it compared to some people I’ve seen.

I’m so glad things have got better for you.
