Yeah, when I mentioned last.fm I meant last.fm radio, a short lived service that if I remember right, it was only supposed to be available on the UK, although with the easily bypassed checks of that time. The description you make about rym

There's the idea, that TBH I don't fully subscribe, that solidarity is not transactional. But what I do subscribe is that little kids don't bear the blame of what people do against LGBTQ+ communities.

Hey, I may give it a full read later, but so far the abstract seems sound. >Trade with non-democracies has no impact on either attitudes or institutions. And actually it’s good that there’s research about it. Different correlations betwe

I guess I disagree with everything. But mostly I disagree that anyone serious actually thought that entering on a global marketplace would turn any kind of nation democratic... but I mean people at the top can have any kind of ideologies, I

Let’s be real. The kid gloves would be off for any country, democratic or otherwise, that tries to compete on economic throughput and global influence with the US. Unless you’re trying to argue that the rapid economic growth happened becaus

It’s hard to imagine a scenario of young people getting pushed a skinner machine without any real pushback. But in this case, it’s possible because advertising companies can pay top bucks to the brightest minds to make their platforms as mu

Yes, that’s exactly right, and that’s why people still go to the movies when almost everyone has a screen they could watch movies if they so desired. Despite the hyperbole of “original sin” or “crime against humanity”, what people are sayin

I read this as a tongue in cheek take on isolation of your os. I mean, the ability of nix to install stuff isolated from the rest of the os is a point I make about stuff that nix can do. But I wouldn’t be mad as it’s not the only thing it c

I don’t drink coffee as it doesn’t sit well in my stomach, but the thing is, I’ve never felt like coffee does anything for me. I can drink a cup of really caffeinated coffee and drink without any issue and even sometimes the warm beverage a

Fwiw, I initially burned through the free searches in a few days, so definitely not enough IMO. Add the fact that free searches never got refreshed for my account, and I was pretty much unable to properly test the service for months. But ba
