[Between you and me, I am getting lazy and one site is more than enough.]

Makes sense.

[vic]

^Yes, understandable. And the day has only 24 hours. But lazy? Doubt that, you work, study, and read + have a life sort of! :)

Must say that I find the drama going on @Twitter childishly amusing.

[ivanovnegro]

^ That is true and I do not even care. People are so dumb.

[vic]

^This shit is a good lmao, people call him "Space Karen" on Twitter now! :D

[GekkoP]

^ I still don't think Twitter will die any time soon though. Also, I don't know how the Fediverse behaves today, but when I was in it some years ago it was hard to track people on different instances, and it mostly suffered the same problem I had with Twitter: tons of useless content.

[vic]

Have not logged in to my Twitter account for a very long time. It is like any social media, exhausting, creating stress if one is crazy enough to try to really follow it. At the least I know that I am not fit for it. Too much all the time and for one tiny tiny diamond of interesting thing there is all the coal in the world.

Twitter will probably live, but it´s influence may dwindle over time if their "VIPs" leave for other channels. And who knows, maybe ex Twitter employees
startup something brand new in the same category so the competition increases?

Well it is occurring again, time to greet another New Year, the new code name for it is 2023. So wish that it will be good for you all.

[ivanovnegro]

Yeah, happy new year to everybody on the grill!

[gutterslob]

Happy GNU/Year!!

[GekkoP]

Indeed, all the best lads. Le'ts hope it'll be an inspiring one.

^ as usual, another closet despot trying to do a Hitler. You’d think Europeans would’ve learnt from experience by this point…

“The state must declare the child to be the most precious treasure of the people. As long as the government is perceived as working for the benefit of the children, the people will happily endure almost any curtailment of liberty and almost any deprivation.”

— Adolf Hitler

Anyone claiming to “protect the children” is just a failed parent with a power trip. Can’t manage his/her own household properly so wants to enact a law so that society will (be forced to) do the work for him/her.

[GekkoP]

^ I couldn't have said it better.

[vic]

^ Agree. I know it is meaningless to get upset about shit like that but can´t help it. Just got overwhelmed by frustration, and I know also that there probably are a lot of other similar shit going on all the time that I do not know anything about. Sigh.

[GekkoP]

I finally had some time (and the right peace of mind) to get back to write something: https://manueluberti.eu/2023/02/19/why-proust.html

^Thanks again! Such a joy to read about your passion and engagement. :)

Much too kind! :)

Rounded corners has become so common that I have not only become used to them, I even have started to like them. :|

[ivanovnegro]

^ I am still not sure why people like them. I think I do not.
