Capitalism gets so fucking lazy in its final, desperate form.

“The gram”

28 Years Later has had such an interesting and starkly diverse split in terms of what people thought of it. People seem to either like it, or absolutely hate it.

I liked it, but now view it as a complete departure from the originals, and from the zombie genre in general. Now we’re kind of getting a look into how this dystopian hellscape has solidified over the years and what kind of insanity comes out the other end. That’s the part I’m curious to see, even if it’s not executed as well as I’d like.

Fair enough. They’re trying to reach the broadest audience they can. The sad part is the folks that will actually listen and give a shit is a dwindling number on Xitter. They’re better off posting to both if not already. A massive swath of users that would be more receptive moved to Bluesky or left social media entirely.

I don’t use any of them but Twitter has been rife with dipshits and racists for a long time now.

They could be using a platform that isn’t owned by a Nazi. Best approach though is using zero of them because fuck social media.

There’s this other thing called Bluesky.

I use xcancel.com for that.

Racism.

I bet with a little work you could then feed this through a tool for audio. Kinda curious to look into it myself.

“I’m gonna rip the fuckin’ head off!”

I have a friend that dresses as Karl Havoc every Halloween. He’s a drummer in a band and played dressed as him for a Halloween show.

Wow, this has a ton of features.

In true tech bro dumb dumb fashion, instead of recognizing failure and learning from it, he doubles down and blames the critics.

Dating back to the first Android phone, the G1. I was installing custom ROMs on that first, and then when I eventually got a Nexus 5, I started to de-Google.

I’m on an iPhone now because I had a string of bad luck with how shit most Android phones are, but I’m still privacy and security-minded:

• I have no social media accounts - no one can actually find me except through my personal website or LinkedIn (but they obviously have to know my name first for either). If/when people complain about it, I shrug at them. I’m not signing up for TikTok so you can send me some vapid video
• I use a VPN 24/7
• Proton as my mail provider
• My wife and I don’t use any streaming services - Stremio for everything (through Real Debrid so no torrents can be tracked)
• I use a virtual card service so that absolutely nothing has our actual credit and debit card numbers (some with limits set so a service can’t arbitrarily raise rates on us, or go rogue and accidentally charge too much)
• Windows is not allowed to touch a single computer I own. It’s either macOS for work stuff, or Linux for everything else

Fascists making a tool that does nothing but steal Other people’s work is so on brand for them. They’re incapable of making anything original.

I’m thankful for 2 things:

• Never getting any tattoos
• Never getting into Harry Potter

Any time I think of a tattoo idea, I ask myself if I’d want to see it on my body 20 years from now. The answer is always a resounding no.

Yeah, I’ve been keeping track of that one and they are trying to get him removed from any sort of leadership role over the community.

He’s been a dirt bag for as far back as I can remember.

DHH is a massive piece of shit. I keep seeing his stupid name popping back up recently and I wish he would go the fuck away. No community needs his toxic views.

Which is not even remotely true. One is a garbage word used to insult an entire race that was enslaved for decades. The other is for corporate AI that has no humanity and was created on the backs of the working class, in order to undermine and in some cases, replace the worker. It takes like 2 seconds to look beyond the surface to see that this is not the same. I’m just gonna assume this is satire because it’s such a stupid take.

I would never use the n-word because I’m not a racist piece of shit.

Explain to me how “clanker” and the n-word are on the same level here. I’m okay exchanging “clanker” for “corporate dogshit,” but then that would ruin your opportunity to manufacture outrage.

Edit: legit hope this is satire because it’s such a dumb take if real.
