Ole to Lena: “I was thinking on my feet today.”
Lena asks, “Why, were you too lazy to sit down?”

The video length was pretty limiting, though. Instagram at the time started doing 15 second videos. The six seconds lent itself to goofy comedy and not much more.

It seems like they should have sold it. Or just jammed in a bunch of ads… maybe an option to remove ads with a paid membership. Simply killing it doesn’t make any money other than to avoid losing more, and they’d already invested a fair bit which you can’t recoup by just closing something. Of course, Google does that all the time I guess.

Twitter clearly mishandled it. All they needed to do was give the option to post longer videos. Classic example of a large company buying a small innovative service and destroying it for no reason. I assume they thought it was too similar and in competition with Twit’s existing ability to post videos.

Does it have better features or interface for it than kbin? I’ve tried using microblogs on kbin but I find it sorta confusing.

There’s an $18 minimum wage in Denver, for instance. Republicans sure as hell didn’t vote for that.

Yeah, good point. It wasn’t in all caps.

I doubt that Bush Sr would be bothered by that as much as I doubt that GWB ever planned more than a barbecue in his entire life.

I know a dude who has a daughter named ISIS, born before ISIS was a problematic name. Haven’t talked to him in years but I wonder how that’s going.

I didn’t use windows from 1999 through 2008, when I bought a laptop which of course came with Vista. I used it a bit and thought, well, for a wintendo, this isn’t horrible.

Reddit claims they didn’t and don’t have to.

There are a few sites that have a menu which asks ‘can we share your information with our 762 advertising partners?’ Uh… no.

salsashire… tamaleshire?

I feel like people who make sweeping comments about innocuous behaviors to accuse others of psychopathy are psychopaths.

Also, why blur the profile pics but not the account handles?

It’s a beet.

Lillipad Cafe in Sydney, AU. I was going to order a kangaroo burger with deep-fried saltbush, but turns out they’re closed :(

I was reading an Apple Maps “best restaurants” guide and it had a button to get Uber Eats from a restaurant listed as 7,900 miles away.

Sometimes they even just repost something they found on the internet

‘fanum tax’ = some streamer or tiktok or youtuber or something called fanum who takes people’s food and says ‘fanum tax’
‘ohio’ = I think it’s about “ohio vs the world” which has something to do with the entire US being Ohio
‘gyatt’ = exclamation about a big butt
‘skibidi’ = reference to this bizarre series called skibidi toilet which features toilets with heads sticking out of them doing battle with robots with cameras on their heads

Yeah, where I used to live up north, even very remote lakes were poisoned with mercury said to be from coal burning in China. People were advised to not eat fish from the lake more than a few times a week or once a week for certain fish. So… tons of people just ignore that or don’t even know about it because they either don’t really understand or believe it, have poor information sources, enjoy the experience, or it’s all they can afford.
