Manufacturing consent from the media owners owners.

Social media is nearly the same as those home shopping channels from the 90’s.

So for the greater good support the current administration with donations? Is that right?

What is your bubble?

I am exploring an alternative browser-like platform concept that would allow for near native performance. However established web protocols are hard to overcome.

Where do you draw the line on consumerism for physical to digital experiences? Is it worthwhile to experience the web given the high cost to build, maintain, and access it?

What would we dev areas are important to you?

I'm thinking about this space now. Ideally, I want a new browser like platform with stricter security properties than browsers but better rendering out of the box capabilities.

I wish for snow leopard strategy to be applied to modern scaled operating systems. Let's all agree to spend a year fixing and optimizing rather than making existing functionality worse or launching half baked ideas.

How can you compare these experiences to a greater upward mobility which does not exist? You don’t have a baseline for comparison. What if you had 2x more leisure time with the same fiscal wealth? What if you had easier access to healthcare?

What are you comparing from 1800? You listed zero qualifiers?

Which cloud provider is DOGE using?

Amazon has become incredibly inhospitable. Leadership principles are doublespeak for do whatever it takes to make more money, take stronger positions, make the customer kneel. Did you know their returns can now take up to 90 days to receive a refund? It is just one of the many many ways.

I quit recently. I couldn't trust anyone to act in good faith. My days were getting worse. Stress at all time high. It comes down from the top aka Jassy and Bezos.

I am curious how all of these economic decisions play out. Are these even well thought out economic strategies? I acknowledge that I am living through this experiment, and feel less in control about my destiny compared to a few years ago.

As an elder millennial, I like early REM. I can place them on the alt indie history timeline. Yet unlike sonic youth or pavement or my bloody valentine, REM made it well into top 40 territory. I don’t have a strong attachment to the band. Compared to Radiohead or Interpol who seem to be engrained in my core memories. I don’t know if college aged people today have major exposure to music from 98-2008.

This is not a user first approach. Ad tech heavily relies on IP address for fingerprinting. Chrome will eventually implement IP Protection for incognito users. I believe Chrome originally planned to roll out IP protection for all users. https://github.com/GoogleChrome/ip-protection?tab=readme-ov-...

What do mean by stuff?

Devs, scavengers reign

If I do that, I hear a rumbling. I never used it to block out sound.

I am surprised about the lack of alternatives. I grew up during live journal and Myspace days so it felt like new communities were developing all the time. Don't young folks want to rebel against the status quo (including tik tok)?

How are kids discovering a new Chinese-owned app? Is it through Tik Tok? Could the Tik Tok algo be biased towards China over US based companies?

Why would you want an outside nation to have an outsized influence America's social fabric? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQXsPU25B60 Chomsky laid out manufacturing consent decades ago and while his thesis revolves around traditional media heavily influencing thought-in-America, the influencing now happens from algorithmic based feeds. Tik Tok controls the feed for many young American minds.

Can you provide more insight? Why would an online video platform block you?

I would say they are likely already working through a potential ads experience

Is it in the history books?

It has 229 pixels per inch based on the E in Gallery 3 display. On E ink’s site, the Gallery 3 product specs says support is up to 300 ppi. Remarkable should’ve gone with the higher resolution.

Wouldn’t the endurance preferred human eventually reach a safe distance and not have to fight?

Why? I get that publishers want ads but cookies are not required for ads. Safari and Firefox have 3P cookie restrictions already.

They should’ve started with user choice as the first milestone when it was originally announced. Similar to Apple’s app tracking. Or just get rid of cookies and let ad tech be less invasive.

I daily the InkPalm for reading. It replaced my Kindle given its pocketable size. I still run the Kindle app on it and it works well without page turn animation. I am curious to see new eink development when the eink pattern expires.
