  I could start by leaving twitter

  I don’t know either, but if it’s not from Spotify the links don’t work, so if they break the API the program won’t work.

  I think this will be a problem for Spotiflac

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How does capitalism differ from crony capitalism?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There are two effects you’re not considering.

  First, if you make the best product, everyone else will leave the business, so you become a monopoly. But almost everything has what are called barriers to entry. I can’t open a microchip factory; the investment is absurd. That’s why large companies can easily buy out startups, and that’s why we constantly see market concentration. It didn’t happen before because until the 1970s, antitrust laws were serious; now they’re a joke.

  There’s another important issue: in a 100% free capitalist system, it’s assumed that initial bargaining power isn’t equal, so those with more can pressure those with less, making wealth concentration more and more concentrated. Adequate government regulation can help level the playing field between employer and employee, but that’s another thing that hasn’t been improving in recent decades.

  I suppose it would be an interesting recommendation to sync data with some cloud service, and not just with Wi-Fi.

  The movie was better than this. Well, the first one was; the second one is unwatchable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a mechanism in the USA to undo presidential pardons years later if political corruption has been proven as motivation to give these pardons?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  After that Supreme Court decision, I believe the United States will not be able to recover a full democracy without a massive constitutional overhaul or a completely new constitution.

  This guy was going to put a man on Mars by 2015 and make the hyperloop the next big thing; with the latter, he prevented investment in trains in the USA. After hearing this, I can only recommend that you join a union; you’re going to need it.

  I think you can block the entire instance, not community by community or user by user.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Maybe someday 😌⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You can block it for yourself if that works for you. You don’t have to limit other people’s options.
