Chaotic Entropy

Because he’s not in charge and is barely engaged at all. Whoever spoke to him last is in charge for that brief window, then it’s the next sociopath who walks in.

He’s always viewed the presidency as an honorary position where he wouldn’t have to do much work.

Gods forbid that people should protect their faces from damage.

Pretty depressing to imagine escaping one despotic regime, through hell and high water, only to watch another rise and set its sights right on you.

The perfect solution… it is not.

South America? Just do a full swap and leave them holding the bill.

“Might”… it’s introducing an artificial delay when loading videos.

What a bargain… a mere $500m, and however much “travel assistance” costs, to trash your own economy.

From the consumers of necessary services that they have wholly captured…?

I could spend a lot of time sifting through ads, nag screens and bullshit to find the actual detail I want on a webpage.

Sounds like you want to nationalise the internet and all its services. :P

If only we could pay for a worthwhile internet via taxes.

I mean, the “To Note” section includes information about their worse practices. The whole infographic is such a nonsense mishmash.

At least the chart is in legend order, I guess.

Naspers is a South African multinational internet, technology and multimedia holding company headquartered in Cape Town… did you mean Napster…? Did you generate this with AI or something?

Why would the largest music streaming service in the world be in the “other” category and not the “Big Tech Incumbents”.

I guess I am pretty far from saturating my WiFi in any way, the removal of cables with little to no impact on connectivity was far more of a priority for me. I have never noticed a WiFi related outage or performance loss.

I should have rebuilt an old coffee maker in to a Pi Hole instead. I’m such a rube.

I have never felt the need to have a wired connection for my DNS/DHCP, since such a trivial amount of data exchanges hands. The quality of the wired connection if it had one would similarly have negligible impact, surely.

I mean, a lot of things would work, I could power it all with potato batteries if I had enough. The Pi Zero 2 W only cost ~£15 anyway.

Yeah… I’m not going to stick a clunky old laptop on top of my bookshelf and have it run 24/7 as my PiHole. My Pi Zero 2 W is far more appropriate.

It was fun to thumb my nose at Google while it lasted I guess, maybe if they were less amoral then I’d be less belligerent toward them.

Musk’s falling out with Farage was reportedly because he wasn’t rabidly far-right enough in the correct ways.
