Cost of living.
Unable to keep up, communities receding from the edges. The new future.
The contraction of cultures.

The Conspiracy of the Algorithm
"People arenβt wrong to feel like their lives are increasingly out of their control.
Twenty-first-century technology guarantees it."
Corporations, of course, are not the only ones to profit from our misdirected need for agency.
What politicians have perhaps learned best from technology is that they can profit more from increasing uncertainty than by meaningfully attempting to resolve it.

#Mastodon #AdvancedWebInterface #LocalTimeline #FollowedHashtags #css
In my early months of Masto, last year, in my original #Instance, i personalised my Masto browser view to have five permanently visible columns, then used some #Stylus #css to adjust column widths, font sizes etc for comfy viewing in my browsers. The fifth column was the local timeline, which i used for casual reading during the times my Home column remained fairly "under-nourished".
One day, sometime last year, i learned from someone's helpful post that we could follow hashtags, something nowadays just blindingly obvious, but to me back then was utterly unknown. So i began doing so, adding more over time as needs & wants be.
A month or two ago, 'ish, i suddenly realised that nowadays i was spending ZERO time in that local timeline, given my Home column is always full as a goog, full up to dolly's wax, full to pussy's bow, et al π Hence it was time to again edit my css, & my Masto interface, to revert to the four-column view.
TL;DR: following hashtags is fabulously handy!
Fwiw...

To all those peeps who loudly cry "size doesn't matter" ... a rebuttal.

It's a chilly squally day. You steer the bus around the sharp Purple St bend, then pickup 7 passengers. White St, 16 get on 5 get off, 2 get half-on then off again when see a friend on the footpath. Black St, 10 leave, 14 enter. So far, the split is ~even between upper & lower decks. Down Green Ave, 3 down go up, then 4 new off, 12 on [all but 2 go up]. Red Rd, 75% from up, leave, then 20 on, split 60/40 down/up. Black Blvd, 8 down leave. What's the driver's age?

This member of the Israeli Knesset resorts to #gaslighting and #misdirection when a journalist challenges him of his reported intent to allow service providers to refuse service based on their religious beliefs.
This is just dishonest and his repeated references to the #USSupremeCourt are irrelevant to us in #Israel.

It doesn't make any sense. You need ID for absolutely anything and everything. It's okay because while voter fraud is rare, vote fraud is commonplace. #misdirection
@Doug_Bostrom @dantheclamman I'm well aware of #insincerity having spent a considerable amount of time studying the #science of personality differences
To repeat again - l reported the toot because l'd observed more than enough graphs with zero references. Because the OP did not provide references, l could not validate the toots "lightening" claims.
So, shifting that #honesty focus onto to me - is arguably #misdirection
Non referenced graphs is a deal breaker for me #scientist

Australia's #NationalBroadcaster blocks people from watching #iview programmes if they use a #privacy browser like #TorBrowser.
Even #RT (#RussiaToday) allows private access.
Shame on #Australia.
Maybe its for the best, they apparently had anti-#cryptocurrency programming this week, and used #memecoin and #twitterBuyer as part of their #fallaciousReasoning.

We should have seen this coming because the Democrat-aligned deep state left always telegraphs what they are doing by accusing their enemies of doing it.

Climate action and acting on #peakOil by stealth is wrong, and is breeding #fascism.
We think that is actually the point, though.
Highly-connected #corporatists (whose #covidPassports are often faked) are by definition, #fascists. By using #misdirection and #publicHealth to enact their #fascist state, dissenters will be drawn to the #farRight.
On this path #civilWars will break out and its deliberate. Instead we need learn to live with less β difficult, but infinately more rewarding.
