“Enshittification...when tech platforms offer a service that’s genuinely helpful or unique & subsidize the cost for users in order to hook them.

Once users are dependent, the companies 'abuse' them, squeezing out revenue by either jacking up prices or surveilling users & selling the data." #Cory Doctorow

Holy shit this is so dumb: https://www.gamesindustry.biz/antstream-arcade-is-coming-to-xbox

Wasting all this #electricity
and resources on the server infrastructure to stream hundreds of GB of 1080p+ video all in the name of playing games that clock in on average at less than 1 mb is a #galaxybrain #internet-of-shit idea so stupid it could only be #capitalism.

Solid theory this guy has, Hitler was part of a Jewish banking conspiracy and also Hitler was completely and utterly set up by an international banking cabal. #GalaxyBrain

If I wasn't so lazy, I would prepare a version of the #GalaxyBrain meme with the sequence:
1. Publishes a #webcomic
2. Also has a #Fediverse account
3. The account is linked in the social media roll of the webcomic site
4. Posts updates to the #Fediverse
5. Pages have #altText

TFW you have passable Latin, and you're copy-editing a paper in which the author translates an inscription on a piece of jewellery which sends you so far up your own ass that you have to make a meme about it 🤣

Goofing around with Julia and Pluto notebooks, and...this is what I always wanted Jupyter notebooks to be.

I'm having a total galaxy-brain moment: Pluto notebooks seem ideal for...everything. From:

"I want to do spreadsheet-y things to calculate my personal budget, but I want something with a nicer UI than a grid of cells"

to

"I want to write a simple document that has some math-y or code-y content"

to

"I am teaching a class and want to give students an interactive document"

to

"I am presenting research and want to make an interactive document that makes it easy to verify my work and fiddle with it". (For example, see https://mathstodon.xyz/@dimpase/110287215596697015 -- wouldn't it be nice if the original paper had such a document, and folks right away found the error in Lemma 4?)

@bryanbrake @docRekd and yes, everyone should use a password manager - no exceptions or excuses!

I may have a #GalaxyBrain, but I'm not gonna memorize hundreds of individual 64-digit long passwords!

Because that's what I use to generate strong & secure passwords!

What I need is a version of ChatGPT that can mark up manuscripts that I can use when students submit a manuscript written by ChatGPT. #GalaxyBrain

@nevali is beides falsch, die Autos sollten auf Parkplätzen stehen und der freie Platz für Radwege genutzt werden. #GalaxyBrain

The existence of the multiverse in both Howl's Moving Castle and His Dark Materials suggests that the two stories might exist in the same larger universe. In some version of Howl's world, people might have daemons. His would obviously be a magpie. What would Sophie's be? 🤔

Zaslav continues with the content removal hatchet, now nuking some of Warner’s jewels, the Looney Tunes catalog.

https://www.looper.com/1153440/hbo-max-seemingly-drops-the-removal-anvil-on-hundreds-of-looney-tunes-episodes/

I guess the strategy here is removing content that costs residuals because people will watch it and cost HBO money - which logically leads to a service filled with content that nobody wants to watch ergo no residuals? 🤔

Serious #GalaxyBrain going on here.

@stux I use #pfBlockerNG & #uBlockOrigin in combination...

If you want to go #GalaxyBrain, think about using #SponsorBlock...

Ok I just boosted this on principle bc I love her stuff, but am listening now and it is seriously super charming! Buy it and support an indie artist pls #bandcamp #GalaxyBrain #We303Kings #MerryChristmacid
