This might be the dumbest shit I've heard in a while.
You'd better ban fingers too.
And all kinds of cameras and recording devices.
Laptops. Computers. Smart TVs. Ban it all. We'll play with a hoop and a stick and be happy.
Try getting parts for the original fairphone or fairphone2.
Pretty sure Washington DC is directly North of Richmond. I'm not from USA but that was my natural assumption about who he was talking about just based on geography and the US centre of power.
The pandemic taught me that 90% of public restrooms will leave my hands dirtier than when I started, and risk further infection than if I just go in, piss, don't touch anything and then front kick that door open.
Same. I just don't have a reason to use kbin. The interface is not my cup of tea and I don't like the way they've handled communities or 'mAgAzInEs'.
Ensure its released globally at the same time
This was easily the biggest driver. For GOT, I had legal access but I was expected to wait over a month, by which time because the internet - the spoilers would have been completely unavoidable.
I run this combo at home. My daughter was 5 years old by the time we moved back to our home state and she got to spend a few nights at her grandparents house for the first time.
My dad put a disney movie on for her and set her up with some popcorn and a blanket and shit whilst we sat outside having a beer. About 5 minutes later she came running out to tell us that something was wrong with the TV, and that it was broken.
You know what was wrong with it? People were suddenly screaming at her at twice the volume of the original program. She'd never seen an advertisement before.
I was quite proud of myself, but her reaction said it all for me. I'm 40 next year, and this shit has just gotten more ridiculous over time. Seems like boomers are the only people left on the planet that are prepared to be screamed at in their own homes. It aint for me, and clearly not for my daughter either.
There's be some growing pains over the next few years for sure, but as per the original video up top here I think it's for the best. Being a "content creator" shouldn't be a job. Leave it to the hobbyists. Consume less, create more.
The productivity metrics at my company were consistently up by around 150% month by month for the entire duration that we were all permanently working from home without the distraction of the office and the time sink of in person meetings where nothing is achieved.
The only reason we were forced back to a hybrid arrangement is that none of the middle managers had any work to do and it became painfully obvious how little they actually contribute. They don't actually generate any value.
Instead of restructuring, and distributing the heinous waste of money that they and our real estate holdings represent they made the decision to limit WFH arrangements to two days per week and our metrics went right back where they were previously.
Same deal with android phones these days as long as you actually sync all your apps, photos and contacts with your Google account.
Even my external app licensing transferred successfully on my recent upgrade and it only took about 30 minutes.
I’m personally happy to take a wait and see approach
I am not. Facebook is largely responsible for poisoning the Well that is the internet. They have shown what they truly stand for. I am completely uninterested in any platform that has a single thing to do with that company.
EDIT: To add - the Fediverse is supposed to be an inclusive place…
Yes, inclusive of human beings. NOT large corporate interests. Your views are wrong and you should feel bad.

Even for the photoshop, I need context right fucking now!
