“Some of it is anti-intellectualism and the death of high culture, but some of it is also that the landscape of media consumption is set up now so you never have to do the equivalent of eating your vegetables, and that means you never get to suddenly realize that you love Brussels sprouts.”

starting a new movement called "i want solar energy" and the hook is that it's not an aesthetic or a vibe or whatever, I just want more solar energy. there's nothing punk about this. it's going to be very boring and take a lot of work. I'm not getting cute with it. I just want more solar energy.

Haven’t done any loud promo for it lately so hey, did you know that I’ve spent the last two years co-hosting a podcast (mostly) about science-fiction and fantasy books? We’ve covered The Sprawl, Earrhsea, Book of the New Sun, and a lot of other stuff!!

on destroying the internet
when i talk about "destroying the internet" i guess it should be read in concert with the comparison to iconoclasm, which did not destroy images entirely, but attacked images *in specific contexts* to argue their presence there was unnecessary or harmful. similarly, my ultimate desire would be to "destroy" the internet by changing the shape of it: a general end to ubiquitous computing, for instance, with the understanding that while connection and communication is good, yes, great, there are places where computers and the internet do not need to be, or even places where they should not ever be. as someone who's been online for a while, i've seen the shape of the internet change a ton, and i know it's going to change again. in fact, i think the primary appeal of the internet to the capitalist class is how quickly it can be changed, how quickly it can be made to move, how many situations where access to it can be made compulsory, and how significantly your life is impacted if something happens to even one of three or four websites. so if i say "destroy the internet" i say it with the knowledge it will certainly be destroyed, is already right now being destroyed, regardless of what we do, because profit can be extracted when they shake their ant farms and wait for us to generate more culture in the ruin. but i think there's a utopian horizon somewhere in there, because the protean nature of the internet also means *this doesn't have to be* what the internet is, and *this doesn't have to be* how we live on it.

Wrapped up a five year long D&D campaign on Sunday, definitely want to control the scope creep on things more in future, but it was a satisfying thing to do

this remains the most baffling story in tech in the last decade

yes, salaries are high

yes, hardware is expensive

$45 billion is still an utterly staggering cash burn and I am desperate to get a breakdown of exactly where it went
edzitron.com Ed Zitron @edzitron.com · Apr 12
Happy to help. Nothing happened. Everyone pretended like it didn't happen. It's almost entirely gone. Horizon World somehow exists. $45bn basically disappeared into a black hole owed to "lack of a clear vision and mismanagement." Who knows what happened!
