Remember when the web didn't suck?
I wanna know who did the financing for the ad. A tinfoil company? Big ~~Tough~~ Softy Iron? A Goog guy worn off yoga?
(I aim to not say the fifthglyph for all days to promote [email protected])
It's an ad in your post, fittingly (although yours isn't particularly ironic).
Do you know of oulipo.social? No fifth symbols found on all of that domain.
thought it fit! >:)
ooh, kinda wonky of los oulipos to call that thing just cuz of that only work which had this gimmick
also i think that the original book allows using "the", in fact it also allows "me" and forms of "be". so los oulipos gonna , huh?
(btw i wanted to somehow word in "at least once per day", but found using "per", "every", "for each" etc challenging to translate)
"I might try to put up a (compliant) post a day for a half-fortnight"?
CNN and other news organizations in a nutshell
In Canada, we have a state broadcaster, which is nice. The current election frontrunner, according to the polls, is a guy who's made it his entire life's quest to get rid of it. Sigh.
I can't say I would want state run media but then again, I'm not Canadian
We have private ones too, to be clear. And the CBC doesn't actually take orders on what to run.
In the US we have NPR (for some reason)
What? That is gold, not Mildly Infuriating at all.
The web back then didn't have AdBlock. Now it does. So not really lol.
So I think the idea of the tinfoil is that somebody grabbing the knob will make noise.
Therefore altering you.
You’d be better off with an alarm system and a deadbolt lock, though.
That's what I figured - pretty much any alarm system would be better, but could technically help you in a pinch
I'll just stick with the old and reliable thank you
Use an adblocker in your browser and an ad-blocking DNS server like Mullvad DNS (it's super easy on Android, just search for Private DNS in the settings and set it to base.dns.mullvad.net), AdGuard DNS (same thing, super easy, just set it to dns.adguard-dns.com) or NextDNS on your phone (and ideally on all your other devices). There's also an app called AdAway, but it takes up the VPN slot so you can't use it together with a VPN.
I just saw this but with a toilet paper roll under the toilet seat when alone.
"be reminded that you forgot to get tp when you really need it with this one weird trick!"
I only had to play an hour of "Thief" to thank myself I don't have door knobs.
The MSM tries to act like the voice of reason when they're the biggest purveyors of disinfo by a wide margin.
If you mean via ads like this, I would agree. They could do more to filter out the garbage.
But if you mean in their content, I'm not seeing that, beyond the usual (long history) leaning to one side or another.
But these are two very different things and shouldn't be equated.
