Here for the discord. Err, I mean discourse. Yeah.
Pravda of... liberty?

I am unable to reschedule the appt you made for tomorrow 10am est.

OK so the price of things go up and the price of labor goes down because of the resulting severe recession?

I don’t usually see anyone suggest deficits 1-1 increase real GDP.

They misread the zeitgeist of the time. Woke and gender ambiguity are out. They would have been better off going retro.

Ding had a knack for spreading the king of misinformation the censors agreed with.

A whole thread of people incorrectly surmising that Trump is going to lose a congressional seat and overlooking the fact that this is a huge favor to big labor and Trump is stealing the unions right out from under your noses.

Hahaha Cal State Fresno. What an IDIOT!!1!

Political realignment accelerating. Republicans absconding with big labor. Who woulda thunk it!
November 23, 2024 at 5:35 AM
Home run?

Touchdown!

(I’ll see myself out!)

Republicans are the party of the working class now. They’re old school blue collar Democrat protectionists. The next move is to steal unions away from Democrats. Trump’s choice makes perfect sense.

Look - there is no way you are going to get the public to go along with a degrowth agenda. We’ll burn fossil fuels out or spite before we go along with that. If you want to decrease fossil fuel emissions you need to replace it and then some. Abundance is your only choice.

Agree. Almost no good faith debate / engagement on X. On either side fwiw. Spent a long time looking for it and could never really find it.

This is the kind of data point I’m looking at. Need to see diversity of opinion. Way too little of that so far - but I’m optimistic. Unlike, say, Truth Social there is some good mainstream content here.

It’s ironic to see that there isn’t a single positive comment on his selection on the entire platform.

For building new urban apartments … this is a legitimately great choice.

I’d like to see something better than Twitter too. But an echo chamber is even more useless.
November 23, 2024 at 4:57 AM
The network effect is a difficult boss to beat. We'll see. So far my take on BSKY is that it's a better version of Truth Social. Has that echo chamber feel but there are also a lot of legitimate non super-partisan content providers as well which TS doesn't have.
November 22, 2024 at 8:54 PM
Blocked for that. Sigh.

I had unrestricted access in my early teens to what existed before the internet. A whole bunch of hacker / pirate BBS's. And it got awfully expensive to connect to them with long distance phone rates as they were - unless you figured out how to obtain and use stolen phone cards. Heh. :)
November 21, 2024 at 1:44 AM
So many valiant attempts to vanquish the network effect over the years and so few real life successes.
November 21, 2024 at 1:24 AM
It comes close but there's no way to truly replicate the vibe of the tweet essays with the character limit in place here.

RFK and Gabbard I believe are very likely to be confirmed. Hegseth was shaky from the beginning - and he's in even more trouble over the alleged sexual abuse.
