I dig it!! Do you have bandcamp?

I think people do not realize how hard it is to make the creature comforts you are all so used to. No one thinks of the massive bio plants, wastewater plants, construction companies etc that create the comfortable world we live in. On the surface sure, you live in a nice compact apartment with 1000 other people so the land is densely populated, but you still had to build on that land, all the wastewater needs to be treated, and you’re going to have people who don’t want to live squished together. Hence what we have today. Urban sprawl may suck but when you get your own house you don’t really care anymore.

Also you can’t have a sustainable society when we keep increasing population, and everyone’s idea of sustainable is different. One person may be satisfied to have food and read books all day. The other one may want a Woodshop so they can build. The other one may want a large garage so they can work on old cars…see where im going? Sure if everyone was content to sit on a couch all day, our idea of a simple sustainable life may work. But some of us are doers.

Half of them are brainwashed. Its crazy how propaganda works. Then you ask one of them if they’ve ever even met a trans person, and they haven’t. Even though by their estimates 50% of the US is Trans xD . Idiots.

Nono you don’t get it. Thats a conspiracy. They wouldn’t say what they mean and do what they say! Well even if they do it it hurts people I don’t like so I don’t care!

Fucking Americans.

Im extremely lucky to have a good paying job and still I say tax the fuck out of the rich. They are absolutely kings of our day drunk with power and money they do not deserve that they earned by destroying thousands of lives. There is no other way to win capitalism. If there’s a hell, all billionaires will go there because they are scum. You’re average millionaire bisynes owner mom n pop store, theyre not who we are talking about. Its the filthy rich.

Also that life is one we choose by wanting a solid predictable life. Anyone can online in the woods in Alaska off grid. Its just a fuck ton of work and you could starve or freeze.

Fucking funko pops got me

Im talking about the majority of humans, the lazy and the simple ones for whom tik tok is their lives. Yes sure, for those who are actually adventurous and interesting, it’s awesome to have this information and power. But most people don’t utililize that at all. They want spoon fed content. People don’t even want to find content. They want it shoved in their faces because they would rather not use their brains for 1 second.

I don’t agree with the making it harder to censor. They don’t have to make it harder to censor because everything is misinformation now, and by using that logic they can say everyone is just lying (except for their side, of course) so it’s right back to square 1. Have you seen how many people think ai slop images are real? I rest my case. Technology enabled the dumbest to become dumber and, more dangerously, confident.

All of this could also just be because it’s Americans im interacting with, and we are definitely the dumbest country.

Exactly. If you’re sitting there with no phone, you’re more apt to pick up a book or go somewhere than just doomscroll

That is baffling

Is this just because gibbity couldn’t recognize the chess pieces? I’d love to believe this is true otherwise, love my 2600 haha.

I have the same problem… um I guess the resurgence of 80s style things again? Seems like a lot of people love the designs (I always have) and more and more stuff is trying to mimic that style. Also the resurgence of records and tapes is good, we need to own our media again and stop streaming. Also VR improving will be fun if we can keep corpo shit out of it

You wouldn’t have that issue since you would have developed a better memory without incessant infantilizing technology. Look at how many people still remember their original phone number 40 years later. Look up the study of cab driver gray matter decrease after the GPS era. We are all stupider now thanks to tech, no doubt.

Yep, my opinion is pretty much dead set that things really were better back then.

It’s because back then there was a thing called boredom which led to creativity and generally happier lives. Now, it’s nearly impossible to be bored, and people are much less apt to learn a new thing or go on an adventure because theyre obsessed with their phones. Institute a no phone or no internet rule on weekends, I do this and it’s great!

Purposely looking for a place an hour away from any towns. Europeans would have an aneurism!

Sick synth setup bro!

Just stared backing up my 500+ vhs movies

You hit it spot on. That lazy attitude pisses me off so much I will hardly help people with tech anymore. I know like maybe 1 person who actually has the want to learn, the rest are so lazy they wont even get off the couch to watch a DVD they already own so they stream it with ads instead. Infuriating. And the people using gibbity are 10000 times worse. Idiots. I think those of us who want to learn and enjoy it are going to be gone in 10 years. Replaced by total corpo idiocy.
