The internet was 1000% times better before algorithms curated content for you.

It was enjoyable when you actually had to put a bit of effort into finding content.

DHS might look much better, but id argue that HS rides spend more time offline, either unplanned, or scheduled for maintenance that most other parks.

DHS really suffers where if one ride breaks it backs up the entire park.

BlueSky has made a significant difference in the balance of positive items I see because of muting certain words & the block lists.
The issue for me is, accounts who came over from Twitter, and continue to obsess and still post all the negative crap & fear mongering from Twitter

Yeah but his song for The Hobbit - "I See Fire" is an absolute banger

The Chinese have developed their own open-source Hawk Tuah meme coin and the rug pull only uses one-tenth of the computing power and scams 15x the number of horny victims.

I wonder if the Western Techbros working on AI had "Chinese AI" taking their jobs on their bingo cards

Work: Make sure your laptops are charged in case there’s power outages

Me: keeping quiet that the internet requires power to work

I know TSLA stock seems to operate outside the traditional laws of reality, but if it starts to tank I wonder when the board steps in and tells him to stop acting like a walt

Im all for recycling, but if this proposed plan for Northern Ireland is anything like the scheme thats been rolled out in the South, its been overwhelmingly met with criticism due to increased prices at the point of sale, broken and or faulty machines, long queues and the like.

Adding Trump, Musk, MAGA etc to the blocked words list honestly improves the BlueSky experience tenfold.

Theres a lot of people still obsessed with giving those topics attention on here.

My first experience of Jury Duty; Day 1 lunch largely consisted of the majority of jurors all gossiping how "he looks guilty doesnt he" despite us hearing barely any evidence.

Case was postponed due to new information coming to light.

Can't imagine the youth will be too bummed about their high energy video app being banned when they can just log onto blue sky and read sentences written by elder millennials

I flew through 'Dark Matter' by Blake Crouch in a few days there.

Wish I'd have picked it up when it was published in 2016 - back then it possibly led the way in the now over-saturated Many World's / Multiverse category.

Really enjoyable.

Looked cool but in reality was absolute ass.
Then we had QuickTime....which often saw Music Singles come with a digital move or music video.

The real GOAT was VLC Player. It didnt give a crap what format or file type your media was. It played everything and anything without a fuss

Won't be at all surprised if it turns out Zuckerberg has been recently divorced.

Getting really boring seeing the Discovery tab on BlueSky be turned into a minute by minute update of Trump and Musks life.

Leave that shit on the other platform where it belongs.

My first pedals where 2nd hand Boss pedals (BD2 & DD3) that look like they've been to hell and back. They are still flawless. They've never left my board some 10yrs later.

Thing is, I have a very small VOX AC4-TV amp too. Even on 1/4 watt attenuation the thing is too god dam loud for the house.
