  • In the before times we had libraries of books that’d teach a person anything they wanted to learn. If a person had a question and the book didn’t answer there was someone there who didn’t know the answer but damn well knew how to find it. We never had to sort through piles of garbage content produced to waste our time for profit.

    Even the early Internet was this way. Its slow degradation became a nose dive with broad adoption of Facebook and AI. I had to starting writing a line of code to search. And, that doesn’t even work anymore.


















  • Coincidentally, that’s the almost exactly the longest life we had in our family. Then, one day my wife performed an update which immediately killed the screen. My Pixel failure was far more frustrating: After a system update I learned that if the screen wasn’t clean enough on post-update reboot, Google disabled multi-touch forever.

    Consider that an S23 FE (one model behind the flagship and with lesser CPU) is 70-75% the cost of a Pixel 9. The only differences that most users would notice is: The Samsung has a telephoto and Google an ultrawide; The Samsung won’t unexpectedly die due to a software issue.

    All strawman.

    The shopping mall is not legally obligated to eject the Nazi.

    But, you think government should force action upon the private entity because the majority disagrees with Nazis.

    That’s exactly the opposite of why the 1st Amendment exists. Everyone else learned this when they studied why someone can burn the flag or why the ACLU supports Satanists.

    I’ve no want for your nonsense. And, you do a disservice to others by repeating it. Go learn about quasi public spaces.
