First, I’d like to preface by stating that I am a firm proponent of UBI, but i am under no illusion that life under UBI would be utopic, or even not miserable. The most likely scenario would be as life under “basic” on Earth was described in The Expanse book series. Necessary, but no picnic.

Now that’s a name I haven’t seen in a loooooooong time. Excellent tool last time I used it…about 15 years ago.

Good recommendation.

Mindless Self Indulgence. Good times.

I have no idea if it is proper, but I’ve always just used queer.

As a bi dude, I’m still down.

I’ll give it a try. I have not pirated music since the 2Ks. Enshittification is gonna drive me back out to sea.

My main issue with music streamers is that lately they have been pumping way too much AI garbage music into my playlist.

What’s a good playlist generation app to discover music in the same vein as a song or album I select?

I think whoever downvoted you didn’t quite get what you meant because you just threw that out there with no context.

Continuing your thought;
Unfortunately Bush, Clinton, W, Obama and Biden continued and expanded policies in the same direction Reagan started. Trump on the other hand is actively setting fire to what’s left of democracy while stealing everything, nailed down or not.

I, gen-x, as a kid in the early eighties, imagined 2026 as either a post nuclear war apocalyptic wasteland like Mad Max, or a cyberpunk dystopia like Neuromancer, Cyberpunk 2020, or Bladerunner. One of those two came true.

EDIT:

Me, just getting into computers and watching that ad in 1992:

“Wait…I can just make copy unto my floppy disks?!?”

Wait…Sea of Stars is on mobile?!?

Or the need to pay rent.

I opted to watch the 70mm version because it is the one experience you cannot get at home. I recommend doing so.

PS: Literally nobody is talking about it but John Leguizamo deserves praise. He had a major role and I didn’t even know he was in the movie until he showed up.

…too many bad things happening to dogs for no good reason.

The movie is full of dramatic and moving scenes, but that final little tail wag was the only bit that got the waterworks from me.

…why do they need a two seater.

Perfect to lay about and watch TV.

Without the Farmer says See N Say we’d never have this great Soundgarden intro.

He’s always there. Lurking in the comments.

Fully endorsed. That said, if you have to use Windows, try the IOT versions.

Been a long time gone, Constantinople. Why did Constantinople get the works?
