I’m hoping for EU-run social media that requires secure ID like a bank. I liked Quora before enshittification when it had real name policy and strict moderation.

European spyware is the least likely to be used to attack Europe.

Manipulation by unnoticeable omission. Europeans getting a personalised censored feed, not getting recommended and advertised what they need. Social media giant AI detects an illness you have, and silences all content that could lead you to health. Dating sites not showing you the most compatible people. Job sites not showing you the jobs that could strengthen Europe.

Took a few decades and wasted billions of € to finally come up with the obvious.

Reminds me of my post “How much of your money is invested in evil corporations? Some advice for ethical investing”

They’ll make a dystopia despite lacking someone’s personal data.

Yes, it’s a problem when you’re the last seeder. Torrents are shared in blocks of data, not files. When a file is missing, the whole block containing it is not sent. If you delete a tiny file before a big video file, the video will be broken for downloaders because the first block contains the tiny file and the video file’s beginning with the index with video metadata, without which the video becomes unplayable.

Ah, of course, plant growth season makes the line squiggle.

That was yesterday. It’s about 428 now. The line goes straight up, as capitalism demands.

… those that are older, male or hold “right-wing” political views – are less likely to report feeling …

“Feelings are for pussies! Am I right, boys?”

Seems unsustainable to just let the old trees grow (capture carbon) slower and slower. Isn’t a long-lived wooden building the best capture, so log away to make room for new growth? Paper and Ikea furniture, not so well captured, soon burned in a power plant.

When you come up with a new name in English, I’ll start using it. Until then, chronic fatigue I can remember.

we’d know by now

Not necessarily. When intake rate finally exceeds human ability to remove plastic dust from the body, the accumulation begins.

This reminds me of when Quora automatically deleted questions containing spam (instead of reverting the spammy edits for some reason), so some political actors used it to provoke the deletion of thousands of years-old inconvenient questions (with all answers) by editing the questions into something that triggered the spam deletion bot. Quora never restored the questions and answers. They did ban the editing of anything, so now the site is full of bad grammar and typos, redundant topics, and wrongly bot-tagged questions.

As a long time vaper, I never get any withdrawal symptoms after quitting - quite the opposite: the first week is still tolerable, but then the depression comes back and never leaves in 9 months of abstinence.

Antidepressant and Anxiolytic Effects of Medicinal Cannabis Use in an Observational Trial

Results: Medicinal cannabis use was associated with lower self-reported depression, but not anxiety, at baseline. Medicinal cannabis users also reported superior sleep, quality of life, and less pain on average. Initiation of medicinal cannabis during the follow-up period was associated with significantly decreased anxiety and depressive symptoms, an effect that was not observed in Controls that never initiated cannabis use.

Worked for a notorious backstabber, got stabbed in the back. Is this the right time for victim blaming?

That’s barely evil. Consider the destruction of OkCupid as an attack against its liberal-skewed user base:

Does this make possible federated supply-demand matching, like dating, jobs, and any kind of marketplace?
