2006 - 2022: Corporate content hosts are so cheap and easy that no one has an incentive to learn to self-host content, and people who were previously self-hosting content move over to big "social" platforms

2022 - … : Platforms close off in every imaginable way and start taking every opportunity to extract rents from users, benefits that originally got people to move over now gone, but the network effects are such you can no longer switch to open alternatives or convince other people to do so

Every damn time I think "okay, we overreacted, Twitter is fine" somehow, SOMEHOW it gets worse.

This blaster seems like it has a hardy construction, but the best part is the box and all the features it advertises.

STRONG SENSE FOR PLAYING
AMAZING VISUAL CONVULSION
It can take your endless fun!
TOY SERIES WITH STRONG
8X INCLUDED BULLET (This is a lie. It comes with 24 darts, not 8.)

Computers used to scream out in pain when we connected them to the Internet.

This was a clue and we just didn't listen.

Tonight I decided to add candy eyes to our chocolate-dipped strawberries, only to learn that when it comes to desserts there is a very, very fine line between “whimsical” and “cursed”
My kids are watching this classic scene from Sesame Street and are just as confused as the Yip Yips. They have absolutely no conception of what this thing is. The humor of the scene has truly come full circle.
I just mentioned to someone that I "saw it on mastodon" casually and it didn't feel more stupid than saying the word twitter so I think things are looking really good
