thinking that the method of energy generation is going to be the foundation of changing politics for the better is pure technocrat ideology

looking at a world in which the 1% use a thousand times more energy than the average person: if we can just a get lil more of this stuff surely everyone will become a yuppie

would be great if in three months Twitter looks like Friendster after it was turned from a social media site into an incomprehensibly overstuffed gaming platform, or whatever it was by the 2010s.

I kept jokingly telling people on Twitter not to mention the third-party apps to Elon because I honestly think he didn’t understand they exist! This might be what happens when someone finally explained to him that they do :(

Some things about Twitter haven't changed. A local news story here has gone mildly viral, due to bad actions by our local sheriff's department. A post about it by Radley Balko made it look like it was actually the city police department. As somebody who has covered this story from day 1, I replied with a slight correction that it was the sheriff's department. And for the last four days I've been responding to people who think that somehow directing their rage in the right direction amounts to loving cops.

I’m not twitter person- like i didn’t really know about tweetdeck 3p apps and shit, but i’m still surprised there isn’t some kind of alt medium better than mastodon or whatev. is that like just not gonna happen or ?
― normal AI yankovic (Hunt3r), Saturday, 14 January 2023 18:52 (one year ago) link
its hard to get people to switch it might even be impossible what you need is something that people want to use on its own merits not because its a replacement, you start with a small group of early users having fun fucking around developing the language of the app so to speak and eventually more people are attracted to that situation, also all the attempted twitter replacements have exactly the wrong idea theyre trying to make an elevated serious nice twitter but whats good about twitter is that its funny messy weird etc
― lag∞n, Saturday, 14 January 2023 19:10 (one year ago) link
prob more likely that twitter dies on its own than having its users stolen by a replacement
