Good point. Sleepwalking into authoritarianism doesn't seem difficult these days.

Yeah i agree. For what it's worth, here are 2 ways i use to bypass captchas: Use this site: https://archive.fo/ Use a vpn and set the server site to a location that nixes the captchas (Denmark, Taiwan, etc.)

These "super-app" fantasies always ignore the fact that WeChat is ubiquitous in China because the Chinese government practically requires everyone to have it. How exactly is that supposed to be replicated in a non-authoritarian society?

Any of thousands of people can say this but i don't see it in the comments below so: I've been using a Linux Mint / Windows dual boot system for over 10 years and love it. I think a lot of people see Linux as highly technical, but versions like Mint and Ubuntu are more carefree than Windows nowadays.

Wow, Silverlock exists and is active. I feel ... protected. Seriously. I've only been modding for about six months and silverlock has seemed like some ancient cabal of wizards that disappeared years ago, when Fallout 4 was new. But here they are, on the job. Very cool.

As a Mint user: What do those symbols even mean? (or: "Distro? What's a distro?")

 

Oldie. Michael Nesmith's best song imho. When i first heard this song it kinda summed up my life (in re a girl), and weirdly years and years later it's kinda summing up my life again (in re a job haha).
