I Ditched the Algorithm for RSS—and You Should Too - Joey's Hoard of Stuff

Reply in thread

You start with vlogs you like.

Then see who they have in their blog roll.

More seriousl, I have literally used RSS regular since like 2006 or so. And I will NEVER forgive Google for killing Reader.

Anyway, what I mean to say is, its just a growing process. Someone links an article and you say, "Well, this sote seems interesting" and you stick it in your RSS reader.

Next thing you know you are pulling 1000-2000 articles a day, even with limiting filters.

One last bit of advice. Most systems let you export your subs.

DO THIS FROM TIME TO TIME BECAUSE YOU WILL HATE YOUR PAST SELF WHEN SOMETHING GOES WRONG AND YOU LOSE ALL YOUR SUBS.

Donald Trump’s transition team seeks to pull US out of WHO ‘on day one’

Reply in thread

I want to not be fatalist and doomer. And if this were 2016, I would agree. But we had 8 years of everything Trump and his crew of assholes want on full display for 8+ years, and people STILL picked him.

This is what people want.

And I ran out of fucks back in like 2020.

At this point, I just want to be sure to point and laugh at every Trumper who gets serious ill or loses their Social Sexurity or gets deported etc etc over these policies they chose.

I want to laugh and go "hah hah" in Nelson style, every time.

Climate Change is a hoax

Yeah, just like basically a month of record high temperatures and more people dying of heat incidents than ever.

A loan is a loan

The bigger issue is the predatory nature of these loans and exhorbidant and exploitive interest rates.

Whataboutism

What does that have to do with the original point 3?

Let LGBTQ vote how they want.

Until they aren't allowed to vote or exist right?

Billionaires are always the enemy.

You do not get to even 1 billion without causing massive indirect harm to a shitload of people. No one, no one, every, has put in enough to "earn" 1 billion. The vast majority of people will work their entire lives and be lucky to have a gross total income of a few million. Thats Gross, not worth or wealth, thats, "I took money in and spent it to live."

I would argue anyone worth much over 10 million is in the same harm causing boat as billionaires.

It may also be that someone does not WANT to be promoted. I get high praise from higher ups, everyone iny group comes to me for suggestions and advice.

I am, pretty low on the totem pole. I have no desire to move up to a position where Inspend more time making spreadsheets into lies tomplease upper management than doing actual tangible work. Plus the company seems like its always fucking over managers randomly the higher you go. Feels more secure down here.

Oh yeah, the Genocide. I forgot about Trump's incredibly pro Palestine stance on things.

Also, news flash, who fucking cares. It sucks people are dying, but that entire area has basically been at war endlessly since the dawn of time because every fucking religeon wants to be the only one in control of the "Holy Land."

They pretend its something else, but at the end of the day, its just more endless killing in the name of some Sky Daddy bull shit.
