I have a sub to dashlane that came with ten additional subs and despite trying to literally give them away to family and friends and you’d think I was trying to pull teeth.

Lmao are you out here saying we should essentially smear people for thought crimes?

“We need to recapture the Apple market share!”

“Got it boss, we’ll make it stupid.”

The federalist papers very much show they were aware of that threat.

I don’t know that I’d call them idealistic. They were landed nobles who didn’t want to pay the increased taxes levied on them. Which in turn were to pay for the war their government had fought on their behalf to protect them from the native people whose land they had stolen. By exterminating those native people.

Makes me wish my career wasn’t so fucking niche, for sure

This is how you get people to start rooting their TVs

My parents live in butt fuck nowhere and are in a fiber co-op paying like $70/month for unlimited 1gbps up/down.

Meanwhile I live in the (extremely left) Capitol City of my state and pay Comcast $165/month for like 175mbps capped at 1TB, with some absurd overage fee like $10/5GB over until I hit $100 over and then it’s “unlimited” but seems throttled.

I’m convinced humans have some kind of natural inherent fetishization of “old knowledge”.

If it happened outside of living memory they somehow knew more or had special magical knowledge we just don’t understand or can’t interpret from our perspective. The older, the more true people can be convinced that it is.

As if there is some kind of “platonic ideal” of thoughts or ideas from which all others are derived from, where the further back something back it is, it MUST be more true
