- Comment on YSK that americans can now deduce private jet expenses from their taxes 1 day ago:
Obesity is a term which explicitly defines an entity which has accumulated an excess of resources, to the point of causing damage to itself and the environment it inhabits.
If obesity conjures representations of normality for you, that’s a function of the gravitational distortion inherent from your current perspective.
Finally, I invoke this notion as literally a medically morbidly obese middle aged white guy, but I’d easily pass for a medium as a Seppo.

Any reality where financial obesity can me interpreted as a positive or desirable notion must conjure other fascinating paradoxes, please tell us more…
- Comment on YSK that americans can now deduce private jet expenses from their taxes 1 day ago:
The financially obese are weird, a perfectly cromulent framing.
- Comment on YSK that americans can now deduce private jet expenses from their taxes 1 day ago:
Financial obesity is an existential threat to any society that tolerates it, and needs to cease being celebrated, rewarded, and positioned as an aspirational goal.
Corporations are the only ‘persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment, but billionaires should be euthanised through taxation.

Any mind which can be blown by the lack of acceptance of pseudo-deterministic slop should be constrained to stewarding products used by only true believers.

- Comment on Is anyone NOT steaming their Music? 1 month ago:
I stream from my own library hosted on my fileserver.
I use a random playlist that increases the delay for track repeat plays proportionally to their play count. Albums are added as I find artists or themes I find interesting, movie and game scores are great for adding incidental randomness.
I’ve never payed or had an account on any streaming ‘service’.

- Comment on SpaceX says states should dump fiber plans, give all grant money to Starlink 3 months ago:
Wireless data transmission should only ever be used for nomadic, temporary, and/or sacrificial links.
They’re useful for quick deployment, but are intrinsically brittle and terrible for resiliency and efficiency.
The longer the dependence on them for a given use case, the less defensible arguments in support of them become.
I’m all for the use of satellite delivery of internet services, but only when it’s used in conjunction with a broader roll out of hardwired infrastructure, at which point it can reasonably be relegated to serving as a secondary, backup diverse path.
- Comment on Why It's OK to Block Ads (2015) 3 months ago:
Advertising needs to become as socially acceptable as smoking.
It arbitrary pollutes any environment it’s conducted in, and causes secondary harms to non-participants by incentivising insecure hoarding of private information with the intent to better target individuals.

- Comment on Your TV Is Spying On You 5 months ago:
I’ve never allowed my TV to have an active route to the internet since I bought it in 2019, it’s exclusively fed over HDMI by gaming consoles and an Apple TV.
The thing is, HDMI 1.4 added HEC, so what’s to prevent media players from serving as an Ethernet switch and providing an internet connection to TVs.
