marknutter··on TikTok is harming children at an industrial scale
And that leads to a monoculture and echo chambers.
marknutter··on TikTok is harming children at an industrial scale
Who gets to decide what ostracization is good and what ostracization is bad?
marknutter··on TikTok is harming children at an industrial scale
Let's look back at who these "undesirable people" who were being excluded/ostracized were throughout history, shall we, and see how well your "While you have a right of free speech, the rest of us have the right not to listen to you, nor to be forced to listen to you, nor to interact with you" dismissal holds up.

Ayn Rand did not "want to let the disabled starve to death". What a ridiculous lie.

marknutter··on Project 2025 Observer
Not even a month has passed and they're already at 34% completed. Most effective presidency ever?
marknutter··on TikTok says it is restoring service for U.S. users
Dehumanizing people by calling them "maggots" or other such vermin isn't a good look considering history of the 20th century.

It's been so weird to see people say willfully ignorant shit just because they don't like Elon Musk.

Sure, guy, and Bluesky will become the new Twitter.

Woosh?
marknutter··on Why history is always political
If someone documents a natural disaster like a Volcano engulfing an entire city, that's not political in any way, that's just recording facts that any historian regardless of their political views would record.

Are you sure you know exactly what he meant by that?
marknutter··on Insomnia, but not lack of sleep, may hasten brain shrinkage: study
My god, this is not only exactly what I've done for years, but you described it in exactly the same way I describe it when telling people about it, almost word for word.
marknutter··on The Influence of Japanese Archaeology on the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
I remember being brought to tears standing on a hillside in TOTK looking at a double rainbow across the valley as rain came down while the sun was shining. Despite its dated graphics, it somehow manages to feel more immersive than even the most impressive current gen titles out there.
marknutter··on The Influence of Japanese Archaeology on the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
The feeling I got when entering each of the unique towns in BOTW are memories I will cherish until I die. They nailed the art direction, music, and soundfx so damn well in that game it's an artistic masterpiece in my opinion.

marknutter··on In SSRI withdrawal, brain zaps go from overlooked symptom to center stage (2023)
> sleep paralysis with demons in the room (feeling like you are laying in bed with a demon coming towards you but you physically cannot move)

This gave me literal chills when I read it because this exact thing happened to me for the same reason as your acquaintance (but far, far lower doses). I was prone to getting sleep paralysis anyways, but abusing MDMA resulted in the most terrifying experience of my life two nights in a row. Your description was spot on.. I felt the covers on my bed being pulled off of me by some demonic presence the first night, and the second night the same thing happened but that time I was lifted out of my bed and slowly dragged away. Felt like I was awake and perfectly conscious the entire time and I literally frozen with fear to the point where I couldn't speak. I stayed up the entire night after that for fear of it happening again. I also got terrible brain zaps for weeks afterwards, too.

marknutter··on Amazon Still Has a Counterfeit Problem
My wife recently bought a brother toner cartridge off Amazon and it ended up damaging our printer. We later found out it was counterfeit when the flimsy brother logo pealed off (and after a printer repair person mentioned there was something weird about the toner we had used). I'm on the verge of cancelling Prime myself.

I cannot for the life of me figure out how to install live-wallpapers using this app. I hope I'm not the only one..
