Just a person who likes media that you actually can hold in your hands and computers that only do what you tell them to.

  • Everyone is doing this, partially to stop AI scrapers and bots. It's a bit weird on an "about" page, but welcome to 2025 and the dead internet.

  • I hope they keep it this time, I'm tired of seeing these, and then "oh, MS gave us a great deal soooo"

  • DNC pushes back on David Hogg’s plans to support primary challenges against Democratic incumbents | CNN Politics

  • I just went with independent, which removes me from the "primaries", but also removed me from all the non-stop text messages and phone calls begging for money to support a party that does little more than shrug non-committaly.So, no? I'm from the US, I don't really get a choice in ISP, phone network, or political representative, but boy I sure do get to pick from a number of different cereals.

    I am more active at the very local level, though, which seems to be the only place an individual can have impact.

  • Stuff like this is why I left the dem party, they're only strong opponents to progressives, not conservatives. The best summary I ever saw of them was: GOP: "fascism" DNC: "fascism ✨🏳️‍🌈"

  • Haven't seen this on here yet - humans don't require computers to create art... Art is inherent in us.

  • This feels like clickbait - I find it hard to believe the writers of this piece are unaware of the protests. The better question, perhaps, is "why does media refuse to cover the protests", and the answer to that is obvious - the media (damn near all of it) is controlled by the very oliarchs we're protesting.

  • This is what resistance to the digital coup looks like

  • Considering it's shipped by default on the fedi, on ghost, discourse, bsky and loads of other very hot upcoming and established tools, it's very much alive. Just because xitter and facebook and google failed to find a way to monetize it and therefore tried to kill it doesn't make it dead.

  • I think even UK common law has something to say about that, some kind of Magna Carta? We regressed right back to pre-constitutional monarchy, do not pass go.

  • Dude literally pointed to his friends who made a killing on it, and posted "buy" info on his socials before reversing.

    If we had any kind of system of laws, that'd be jail time.
