That's a strange take. But okay He also wrote the book "Public Opinion" in 1922 [1] which explained how the US mass media apparatus could be used to influence the common man. [1] h…

Ah, yes. The media. Famously the voice of the proletariat and the oppressed Walter Lippmann is spinning in his grave

The Commodore chunk of retro computing is an extremely small pond. Of which he's an obnoxiously loud voice due to his youtube presence. Much to the chagrin of most of them (and mos…

Right, I forgot to bleat about how he was a (literal stand-in!) for Hayden Christensen on Star Wars. [1] He got a bunch of old hats to sign their name to...what, exactly. A C64 on …

Why do we need any other sites at all? Let's just all use Facebook

Microsoft was a massive corporation To imply that every single person there was evil to their core simply by association is utterly ridiculous. I doubt the guy who created Mineswee…

What else is out there that fits openWRT's use case? BIND seems like it would be a bit "heavy"

Sorry, but ...Normie? What does that even mean in this context
