Ah yes, just what the world needs: another Twitter.

FreeBSD, actually

YouTube's censorship has become worse than cable TV's (in the US). I have a feeling that BiliBili will only further normalize the aggressive censorship, like TikTok did.

The real headline:

Over 170,000 Nonprofits Lost All Their Data. Is Microsoft to Blame?

Not sure if Slate is A/B testing or if OP clickbait-ified the post title

🤔 this actually seems like a good point. Like, I've seen videos of spines getting sliced off of old-looking books, and presented in the context of them being rare, but never actually fact-checked it myself. Now I'm wondering if I've been fooled. (I really hope so, in this case.)

I didn't have a rich family. My parents were poor for my entire childhood, and remained poor until their deaths. All other relatives are poor too (very small family). I'm not rich by any means; just financially comfortable.

Most success stories I've heard from people who brought themselves out of poverty, had no political "odor" to them at all. Having enough spare time to think about politics seems like a bit of a luxury when you're too busy trying to survive while also working towards carefully planned goals. In fact, if such a success story smells political even a little bit, and it's on the Internet, then yeah, it's probably not to be trusted.

gov shenanigans

Was the "Cash for Clunkers" thing one of them? When that happened, I remembered wondering how it might affect the used car market later... But then I forgot to check until just now 🙈

Yeah Danish is a bit wild with numbers too.

As a guy who clawed my way out of poverty, I can warn you: People who state those opinions on the Internet almost never want to hear about a success story — even if it could help others. (Not that downvotes even matter though)

What's the connection here?

Woahhhh chill with the hard "O" before it hurts someone. It's "G*d"

Oh my god, I can't believe I did that! Thank you so much
