They aren't volunteering so it's recommended to just call it slavery.

I have written and moderated courseware for education students focusing on digital literacy. A requirement for graduation, pass/fail. I was so excited to start the project. I was so disappointed by the end.

The teachers to-be had very little digital literacy overall, and very little ability to recognize that or care. Too many passed, by design of the department heads. It was saddening to realize that most of them were headed out into the world with indifference to social media processes and little ability to recognize digital manipulation, and to share that indifference with children.

I always took it to mean that people are fed shit information by design and we should fix that.

Or, maybe it has something to do with who owns print and broadcast media, social media and other algorithmic psyop structures, and is leaning hard on educational curricula.

The social narrative. The information water most people swim in. It's owned by the adversaries of universal suffrage.

Billionaires own the legacy media and most social media.

In other words, they control the means of social reproduction.

Buckminster Fuller, who was smart enough to predict the geometry of the most common object in space, the 'Bucky Ball' and designed geodesic domes, thought that eating steak was more efficient than plants because the cow focused the nutrients.

Stay in your lane, experts.

It's not just too small. It's a torture chamber for echolocation and intelligent beings that can swim vast distances.

Think of gitmo with stress positions and metallica blaring nonstop and the lights are always on.

Eating a tiger liver would probably kill you with Vitamin A poisoning, a particularly painful affliction.

Easy to just avoid eating entirely, even if the rest of it is safe enough.

Well that's piqued my interest so I glanced over your comments. I have to point out that yes, people respond badly to you sometimes, reminding me of reddit.

You should know that you seem unaware that your comments occasionally have a pugnacious or even bellicose tone, not necessarily intentionally mind you, but noticeable. Sometimes dismissive or contemptuous attitudes leak out and hostile replies state they are responding to that. It's not simple bullying, it's buttons being pushed.

Apple doesn't want people using the mouse with the cable attached because it would cost them a fortune due to failed charging ports within the warranty period. It's a wireless mouse. Using it plugged in will fuck it up.

I fix computers and an apple mouse with a bad charge port is just a throwaway.

Mac Mini M1 when it was released was a good deal compared to same form factor machines at similar prices. Same for the M1 MacBook Air, despite the base RAM.

That advantage lasted a while, too, considering battery life and build quality.

As a hardware repair person I am pretty sure that the engineers compromised with this design to prevent the inevitable problem of idiots leaving the charge cable plugged in while using it and breaking the charge port before warranty is done.
