  There was also the result of drawing a sharp line between the in-group and everyone else. If we have strict dietary laws but the people on the other side of the hill don’t share them, then it follows that they’re unspeakable barbarians, and that we should not trade or cooperate with them, let alone intermarry, and indeed, it’s acceptable to kill them and take their stuff, as surely such a barbarous people would do the same to us.

  In what way is she “goth”? She’s basically Daphne from Scooby-Doo.

  They were a Stalinist dictatorship throughout the Cold War and built tens of thousands of bunkers around their landscape, spending a large part of their economy on preparing for the inevitable invasion by the capitalist imperialists and/or ideologically degenerate socialists. Then, afterwards, they gave the world Dua Lipa and a few other successful pop artists.

  I think that’s meant to be an English-German pun

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I made a self-hostable frontend for instagram.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Being able to set up personally hosted RSS feeds would be useful. If the feeds are fetched periodically, that could also allow archiving of accounts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I made a self-hostable frontend for instagram.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Or even if it could provide RSS feeds of accounts, for following in a RSS reader.

  Though excellent work!

  Cory Doctorow once gave the example of a phone company doing a deal with Domino’s so that every time you called a rival pizzeria, you got “press 1 to be connected to Domino’s or wait 30 seconds to be put through to the number you dialled”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨LLMs are already doing fascists a favor by ensuring that anything that is reasonably eloquently formulated on social media is automatically suspected of having been written by LLMs.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Also, in the age of online communications, when information can be limitlessly copied, it’s impossible for authoritarians to destroy information they disapprove of. It is possible, however, for them to make it difficult to find by flooding the world with vast quantities of plausible-looking alternatives to it, making it hard to identify what is real. Before LLMs, doing this at the sort of scale that would have been effective was prohibitively laborious.

  Ariana was a brand name used by a Chinese manufacturer of cheap luggage of the sort you’d find in neighbourhoods with working-class immigrant populations. I once had a backpack of theirs which was the maximum airline carry-on size, which is to say, muy grande.

  In Ottoman Turkey, burglars would set a tortoise with a lighted candle on its back loose in a house they were planning to rob, to check if there was anyone home.

  You’re right. There’s no way two people could have appeared in the same photograph years before they met. What dumbasses all the normies upvoting that post must be!

  The 3.5” disk was designed as a consumer product by Sony, whose industrial design is second to none. (Compare the 5¼ “ and 8” floppies, which were designed by IBM engineers and only intended for use by technical specialists.)
