I mean it’s FOSS. Have you considered opening a PR to contribute what’s missing? You can be the change you want to see. I wouldn’t normally comment something like this. Your emphasis on “still” raised my hackles a little bit and led me to ask why you still haven’t made your own.
Do you have a drivers license? A social security number? A phone number that you’ve used for anything else? Utility bills? Relatives? A car? Other large property?
Cash doesn’t mean shit unless you pay for everything in cash and never use the same info (including name, address, phone number, social, etc) for everything.
I don’t think the contention is that the title is wrong. I think the contention is that the conclusion you draw is wrong. The implication of people playing games released more than six years ago is that the game is over and done. Live service games with regular releases do not fit the traditional definition of a game release so it is difficult to compare the player base of Half-Life 2, CS:GO, LoL, Borderlands 3, and Fortnite. A huge playerbase for an offline game with no updates is a big deal. A huge playerbase for an online game with regular updates just doesn’t seem like a proper comparison.
The article touches this to an extent.
This is the primary reason I do it, although more for my battery life than the cell towers.
The Fed printed at most 200bil in 2023, down from 330bil in 2022. There’s about 2.25 trillion in circulation and about 15% of the notes are destroyed every year, which is loosely equivalent to the cash order the Fed created, give or take a couple of percent. Inflation for 2023 using the Consumer Price Index was about 3%. That means net cash supply didn’t really change much and prices went up.
If you think that ~200bil in cash has any effect on inflation I’ve got an amazing investment opportunity for you: it’s called crypto and it’s totally legit.
Yeah! A lot of this comes from a lack of agency in your daily life. You have to do all sorts of things just to stay afloat, leaving little to no time for yourself, so you take revenge at bedtime. The classic argument that salary and hours are no longer tied to productivity applies here; working less for more money reduces the need to spend your sleeping hours finding satisfaction.
I wouldn’t say this is a uniquely capitalistic problem, though. Capitalism is just a huge factor in the reduction of individual agency (unless you’re a capitalist and actually have agency) and it’s the most common setup we have currently. You could have the same lack of agency in another setup and see the same problem.
That’s not what this specific list is for.
I'm okay with people using burner email addresses to get my free content, I just need to be able to filter them out of my list so it doesn't drive up bounces and hurt deliverability.
AWS SES, for example, is fucking rabid about bounces. Being able to filter out addresses you know are going to bounce is pretty important.
Can a list like this be used for anti-privacy measures? Absolutely! Does that mean we should never create lists like this? For me that depends on whether or not you think we should prevent encryption because bad actors can use it for bad purposes.
I think a claim like this would require some data showing the training and certification programs have gotten easier. Do you have that data?
In my experience this is exactly what happens. I had a subscription on a checking account at a local credit union. When I moved, I closed all my bank accounts there. Eventually I had late notices forwarded to my new address in another state. Companies should close the subscription when this happens. They apparently aren’t required to.

The Supreme Court has already ruled the police have no duty to protect. I highly doubt there will be a ruling in favor of the kids. If there is one, there’s absolutely no fucking way it stands on appeal in the Fifth Circuit or Supreme Court.
