citizenkeen··on Norway Joins Denmark in Swedish Tesla Strike/Blockade
No. Most unions will support employees not crossing picket lines. Good luck getting Teamsters, who are working and collecting paychecks, to drive a truck past strikers.
citizenkeen··on .NET Blazor
You don't need hyperscript, you can just do it with Javascript.
citizenkeen··on .NET Blazor
Blazor Hybrid looks promising to completely negate the load time for Blazor WASM.
citizenkeen··on Framework Laptop prices go as low as $639 thanks to refurbs and factory seconds
This isn't reddit. Please stop.
citizenkeen··on A floating solar-powered device produces clean water and clean fuel
This isn't reddit and that isn't helpful.
citizenkeen··on Home Assistant blocked from integrating with Garage Door opener API
I would happily check a box that says "deliver to human being, if none home try again tomorrow".
citizenkeen··on Cities Skylines 2 runs with 20fps on an Nvidia RTX4090
We're in a thread about Cities Skylines 2.
citizenkeen··on Reality Labs has lost $11.4B during 2023 (there's still one quarter left)
The morality relates to how you create value and for whom. Not all increases in value are moral.
citizenkeen··on Safety benefits of roundabouts
Portland, Oregon has a roundabout with four stop signs and I've been mad about it for thirty years. Why?!
citizenkeen··on Why every microwave sucks these days
Literally all those things are discoverable if you buy in a store.

Edit: I maybe should have clarified "appliance store", rather than big box. But there are three appliance stores within ten miles of me that sell appliances. Not Home Depot, not Wal-Mart. Appliance stores. The refrigerators and ovens and microwaves are all plugged in and you can try any of them. The only thing you can't try is the gas ranges.

This is the world we built shopping for price.

citizenkeen··on Riley Reid on AI: 'I Don't Want Porn to Get Left Behind'
Just in case anybody doesn't know, "The Internet Is For Porn" is from the Tony-award winning musical Avenue Q. It's a lot more than a "WoW video".

Edit: Seeing sibling replies, I'm glad most people do know.

citizenkeen··on They can and will ruin everything you love
I believe you're looking for a B-Corp? Corporations that aren't bound by Dodge v Ford Motor Co would be real nice.
citizenkeen··on Please Pay for a Year of Nothing
I keep thinking about Plex but I struggle with the idea of teaching my kids that stealing is okay. Like, for a little kid: "This kind of theft is okay, this kind of theft isn't." seems nuanced for a little kid.
citizenkeen··on Please Pay for a Year of Nothing
This is why Max bought exclusive rights to Sesame Street.

This is why Amazon has Nickelodeon.

The services know it's harder to do the streaming juggle when you have kids.

citizenkeen··on Show HN: I made an all-in-one desktop app with a no-BS approach to get work done
If it's a desktop app, charge for it. At some point, offer a new version with an upgrade price. I'm your target market, and I'm never paying for this.

But they don't.

You can write rules on f.oo to go a different path than fo.o.

citizenkeen··on Don’t build a general purpose API to power your own front end (2021)
The need for the open websocket and a heavy server is why I switched from Blazor to HTMX.
citizenkeen··on Fanatics Is Building a Weird Monopoly over Sports Trading Cards
Not really. The idea of collectable cards that you can't do anything with is antiquated. Ever since Magic: The Gathering came along, kids who are interested in collecting (Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, whatever) want to do more with cards than look at them in a binder.
citizenkeen··on Movie-Theater Behavior Has Gone Off the Reels
Yeah, 21 and over in my country, and I almost exclusively go to alcohol theaters because it self selects into an older crowd willing to pay a premium.
citizenkeen··on Airlines are a lot like central banks (2020)
Max Berry's book Jennifer Government[1] posits that WW3 will be fought over airline miles.

citizenkeen··on Sarah Silverman is suing OpenAI and Meta for copyright infringement
Haven't read the complaint, but there might be an argument that OpenAI used stolen works to train their data, and as such fair use doesn't apply.
citizenkeen··on Has Xbox lost the console wars?
You have to go younger. My son is in first grade, he knows we have a PS bit he couldn't tell you what number. His friend is in kindergarten and loves his Xbox, and I'll wager a box of donuts he couldn't tell me what Xbox he has.

If he doesn't know, no way grandma and grandpa are going to be able to get him a birthday present.

citizenkeen··on SVB customers who lost their deposits remain on the hook for loans
Play capitalism games, win capitalism prizes.
citizenkeen··on The Instant Pot Failed Because It Was a Good Product
Every time a company I like and am a fan of announces they've accepted PE I just pour one out. They're dead. It will take a few years, but they're dead.
citizenkeen··on Johnny Decimal
Every time I think about implementing this I realize the categories I have today and the categories I have five years from now are unlikely to mesh well.

At least based on my priorities from five years ago.

citizenkeen··on MrBeast has become a viral sensation for his acts of altruism
That was my takeaway as well. As a parent, I vet everything my kids watch and will for a few more years. I have no idea how you don't.
citizenkeen··on ArchiveTeam has saved over 11.2B Reddit links
Given that subreddit s have been doing it for years when it served reddit's interest, I disagree.
citizenkeen··on ArchiveTeam has saved over 11.2B Reddit links
That entity delegated responsibility before you ever posted. That you didn't care back then doesn't matter: it's always been this way.
citizenkeen··on Proposed SEC order to freeze, repatriate Binance.US assets
Your examples of tax protest were by people who didn't really want to be a part of the government they weren't paying taxes to, or felt they weren't being treated properly as a class.

This doesn't seem to want crypto or finance exchanges. Thistle people just want the benefits of the government without paying for it.

That's just fraud.

citizenkeen··on Social media can be a ‘profound risk’ to youth, surgeon general warns
Hang out with less shitty people.
