Then we can finally turn off the computers and go outside to play with friends.

From the beginning the providers have been interchangeable and subject to competition. Do we have reason to believe that this will change?

Let's start by taxing the ultra-rich.

Disagree. There are effective strategies for creating more sustainable economies and societies. Affordable housing, education, universal healthcare will make us all happier and hea…

That sounds like role-reversal. Securely attached people are more flexible (than avoidant or helpless) in both receiving and giving.

With AGI supposedly around the corner and (more realistically) current LLMs performing at least incrementally better -- why are we even thinking that Microsoft's or Google's soluti…

Re. 2 - I find it fascinating that people using coding agents have seemingly no problem to reveal their full codebases to AI companies.

For the biggest part of my life it seemed that all these technical accomplishments were the work of untouchable geniuses, but reading this story is also very telling about the valu…

I would like to add that humans are in heat only when they are healthy and feel safe (emotionally, financially, physically). The traumatized modern western society tends to get in …

I totally agree. In no way is it helpful to see sex as a need. I prefer to see it as a strategy (and sometimes fixation).

So what is the unmet need behind an obsession with sexless/child-like figures? My guess is unfulfilled (genetic) longing for a "real childhood", where a child does not have to take…

Thanks for bringing that up. I don't remember who said: "The answer is _always_ community."

I use Shaarli on Yunohost, but there are many more options: https://github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted#boo...

What MBTI type are you? I have spent the last two years learning everything I can about my type and it has raised my self-esteem a lot. Also, and possibly a lot more painful to ans…
