The @eff needs to make an app that parodies those "which Character are you" things on #instagram and #snapchat

Instead of choosing your Harry Potter or Star Wars likeness, it shows you the data it knows about you over your head.

The internet is often praised for speed, instant communication.

We use things people said online to crucify them. We talk of futures we fear or delight in, but it is all in the past.

The internet is far from instant. People change every moment. We have to stop condemning each other.

I'm not against debate, but remember we're all suffering and the below each side of an argument is someone suffering.

[2/2] Does this mean that #funkwhale and #peertube will never be able to compete fully?

Does #copyright need to be changed? It's being changed regardless of the law, thanks to the web. Many people raised with the web think nothing of using an image they found online. Creators of #FOSS goodies recognize the work put into things and respect copyright, and corporations force creators into bad contracts and exploit copyright for their own benefit.

Plausible deniability sure helps big corporate silos.

When it comes to #copyright YouTube will nail anyone "little person" not authorized to post a song or show clips. Yet, that platform wouldn't be the 'be all-end all' for interweb video if copyright was strictly enforced.

Similarly, we can assume that Spotify and Pandora wouldn't exist without Napster. Certainly, playlists wouldn't exist without cassette tape mixes.

Yet, #FOSS creators do moderate and enforce copyright. [1/2]

Is it safe to assume that Stargirl is the super hero for country music lovers?

The new Transformer series on Netflix is exactly what we all feel about zombies in fiction. The Autobots and Decepticons are exhausted with themselves. Like the Suicidal Tendancies, they just want a Pepsi.

It is sad. How can animator characters act like they don't even want to be in the animation?

Just bad storytelling all around.

It's that time of the month again, where I say, "oh shit, Medium is still a thing?"

We have spent years telling people that voting is the way to get politicians to listen. Both voters and the leaders now believe this. So when it comes to reaching out with letters/social media posts voters aren't heard, they are 'complaining.' Protests are no longer a political tool, but terrorism. This is the world we have created.

Professionals using video conferencing during #COVID19 : Sorry. Please bear with me, I'll figure it out. Virtual meetings (insert nervous laughter).

NO. YOU HAVE THE ABILITY TO BE PREPARED AND TEST THINGS BEFORE HAND. IT IS CALLED BEING A PROFESSIONAL.

The conservative governments want schools open because kids won't go & they will have more future voters.

How? A child with a snotty nose will be sent home. Do you know any kids without snotty noses?

Parents will tire of picking up 'sick' kids & quit sending them altogether. These children will grow to adulthood without a proper education and vote conservatively.
