       There is no practical difference between #Twitter banning a 3rd party client for refusing to show ads, and #Apple, where Ricky works, banning #Fortnite for not using #IAP In App Purchases for transactions.Useful Anger is good indeed. Use it to petition your elected representatives to #RegulateApple so developers are free to offer apps without Apple editorial, and use their choice of merchant services, without paying Apple the protection money.

       One of the documented Post-#Covid side effects is a neurodegenerative auto-immune condition that until recently was considered a sub-type of Multiple Sclerosis.Many degenerative #AutoImmune conditions are thought to be post-viral triggered.In ~30 years time, after today's children have spent the first 11 years of their lives being repeatedly infected, the most popular form of transport won't be the #Bus, or the #ElectricCar, or the #Train, or the #Scooter.It will be the #Wheelchair.

       @aral Competition law with a broad fundamental regulation that no product, or service may be connected to any other product or service, including aspects of a “single” product (e.g. cellphone hardware and software), unless that connection is made via an openly documented, freely implementable, functionally swappable methodology.Every startup grift at its core relies on the work you put in startng to use the thing, being trapped and non-transferrable behind switch costs.

       @futurebird Lefty who found fountain pen bliss: and yep, fast drying *waterproof* ink did it (so your skin’s moisture can’t smudge).Mont Blanc Permanent Black. The only issue, it dries in the pen, so I have a little jar with some (now black) windex in it, which dissolves dried ink from the nib, then you just dry / scribble it out.

       @aral when a theology fails to produce a result, it’s always a failure of faith & devotion on the part of the congregation, never the tenets of the religion itself.

       @futurebird Made one once with a long rectangular EPROM chip, with the pins folded around behind to hold the lace.

       @26pglt #UBI is always the answer. It will always be cheaper to give everyone the money, than to police the terms of giving some people the money.

       @futurebird "Mirroring"; doing the same thing you're doing *because you're doing it* is one of the core drivers of a cat's psychology.

       "The (major non-American allied nation) officer then said that even a swift return of America to its former role won’t matter.Because “we will never fucking trust you again.”The Americans at the table seemed somewhat startled by the heat of that pronouncement. I agreed with it entirely. So, it seemed to me, did most of the non-Americans."https://www.readtheline.ca/p/matt-gurney-we-will-never-fucking
