I’ve been wondering something, specifically related to something I heard mentioned last night on a stream: their hypothesis was that real life ground game, door knocking or whatever, doesn’t matter any more, and the modern ‘ground game’ is social media and 1:1 conversations.
When ‘reasonable’ people delete/deleted twitter/facebook in droves, are we just ceding the ground game to the racists and the ones who can shout the most hate?
We have been down that road before. The state government will simply refuse to implement anything passed by ballot measure that they don’t like.
I expect the abortion measure to take effect since it deletes out an existing law, but i wouldn’t expect the minimum wage or paid sick leave to be worth the ink it was printed with.
I expect something like this to end up being the solution, but I think we’re far from a consensus in that regard.
Russia is their experiment about bringing down the property value to buy it all in one go instead of incrementally stealing.
Hard to say if it’s working yet or not.
This is it for me. I don’t ever post on Twitte/Mastodon/Bluesky, it’s entirely read only for me, and the feeds I want to follow are finally starting to migrate to Bluesky. They never considered Mastadon.
To answer your unspoken question, yes, someone could have trademarked the yellow paint and stopped the madness right then and there.
Is internet archive that big? i would imagine you could run it successfully with a dozen or so people tbh
This is fake news, he stole the research from Jane Menopause who goes uncredited to this day
Idk if it’s my hearing or what, but this sounds to me like a dogwhistle. Specifically, like they’re not saying that the second the election is over that the US is going to notice Israel is doing a warcrimes 100% run and they can either pump the breaks or the faucet turns off.
Like i said, might just be my hearing tho.
So the litmus test for a bot is to ask if it’s skibidy?
This is not exactly accurate. There are vending machines in the states which produce full cooked products. I’ve mostly only seen them in Airports ,and they generally cost more than a comparable meal at an actual airport restaurant .
So that leaves the choice between giving our data to Google or randos on the internet then?
Yea, it’s one of Fat Nuts Freddy’s best works
if Google wants paid, they can make a compelling and competitive product
the joke was ‘Starfield bad’ so PS5 not getting was a net positive for Sony
Starfield already didn’t come to the PS5. There even was a version for the PS5 in development.
Point to Sony then
The love streams are on orange or blue twitch, not YouTube
The point being, an excellent personal choice at the expense of the greater whole?
