  The only way this wouldn’t be supremely disappointing would be if they were keeping all staff and only introducing this for lower-importance sequences to reduce the famously insane workload. But yeah, I know I’m only kidding myself to even entertain that idea.

  The two matters aren’t mutually exclusive and ultimately their motives don’t matter as much as the effect. Getting riled up and indignant about some people’s racism is useless and even counterproductive-- especially compared to focusing on the source.

  Racism being systemic means there are barriers to overcome at every income level. Everyone has already bought into it at varying levels, so you can’t just go “See, look, they’re racist!” Outside of a few like-minded people, the typical response would range from shoulder shrugs to annoyance at best. Many will even perceive the accuser as acting superior.

  If we’re talking about racism on a systemic level, exposing that there IS someone who benefits is necessary to get people invested in societal healing. Most people are constantly tired and from their perspective, don’t have the energy to care about what they perceive as other people’s problems. Make it their problem too, and maybe something will change.

  Campaigns and general influence by wealthy people who want poorer folks attacking their fellow poor folks and not them. Same as racism in general.

  I have seen the aftermath from when someone rolled her heels in platform shoes. (I was nearby, but didn’t see her foot go perpendicular to her leg like I heard about afterwards.) It was many years ago and I don’t think of it often, but I don’t recall ever buying any kind of platform shoe ever again after that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google confirms it’s close to getting Gemini support on iPhones⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They don’t want Gemini, so they stated probably the best way to avoid having Gemini. It’s a privacy-minded comment. Despite being Google’s own phone, Pixels may be the only phones you can unlock to flash with a different ROM (GrapheneOS) and then be able to lock again after for security.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would this list look like for your generation?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wth wrong with a fade (low or otherwise)? I’m afraid to know what kind of meme is so horrible when it just sounds like a basic haircut.

  I thought it might be a cute way to say they’d be a waste of time and money.

  Yay! Please stick with this, EU! 🥂

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨France runs fusion reactor for record 22 minutes⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I was just making an abstract sci-fi joke based on how cold fusion has been presented like a Holy Grail in the past. Obviously a better source of energy isn’t going to solve all our problems, no matter how good it is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨France runs fusion reactor for record 22 minutes⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe if it runs longer, we all get to jump to a better timeline. 😅

  Yeah, it’s probably those conflicts of interest I had in mind.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DOGE Reportedly Cuts FDA Employees Investigating Neuralink⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I could have sworn at least 3 of the companies he pretends to run were under investigation by different agencies.

  I thought the tech for imitating voices was already essentially available. There are cases of fraud that have been based on this.

  Even better, being a sugar found in milk.
