On the first point I can say, that there are manufactured use cases and they are based on societal failings in other areas. Companies are just capitalizing on them and offer only a perversion of what we had before.

It’s either time or money. If you have one but not the other, do what works, it’s fine, stop judging.
If you have neither though…


At this rate, I suspect some meddling.


I love the idea of Max watching TV with pointing his gun at it the whole time.

The production definitely plays a role, but it’s the huge datacenters for tracking you across the internet and even when not actively browsing. They track as much as they can.
What website you’re visiting, when you’re visiting it, how long do you stay on it, what you click on, what other website you’re coming from, your browser settings, operating system, VPN, IP address, even your mouse movements.
Your phone records a lot more. Google and Amazon listen to your conversations. The Facebook app scans your phone contact list, so they have my phone number even without me consenting to it.
These servers are built to invade the privacy of hundreds of millions of people and that eats up a lot energy and water.
When upset about AI datacenters, never forget that the advertising industry is polluting about just as bad. And of course, now ads are being combined with AI as well, so make that double.

What I read about ads once made sense to me:
It’s not as much about making the product look good or convincing people that they absolutely it. It’s more about people remembering it, whether they want to or not.
Marketing companies have entire departments for making sure ads waste as much of your memory as possible. As a bonus, they also burn up the climate.


“die ich nicht mag” klingt etwas mild für Menschen, die mich tot sehen wollen.


Bei dem offensichtlich rechten Tatmotiv würde ich ja von einer Wiederholungsgefahr ausgehen.
Ob Antisemitismus oder gar Verherrlichung vom Nationalsozialismus als Affekt zählt, bin ich mir auch nicht sicher.


“Eine Streifenwagenbesatzung bemerkte den Angriff und stellte den 71-Jährigen zur Rede. Nachdem seine Personalien aufgenommen wurden, durfte er weitergehen.”
Da greift ein Nazi jemanden an und darf dann einfach so weiter spazieren?!
Turns out it was a European problem.

Back when it happened, I didn’t really follow the news properly and thought it was only a German thing.


I still call it Twitter regularly.
To me, X is a windowing system.


Not even native to the land.
Complaining about foreigners.
Why are white people like this?


It’s not that different from real life though


I took this screenshot of the Steam survey site for September 2025:

Today I learned, I am a moth.


Nennt sich Jobsicherheit. Wenn die “Probleme” nicht existieren, dann kann man zur “Bewältigung” die passende Partei nicht wählen.


Ich mache mir auch Sorgen ums Stadtbild. Immer wenn Merz es betritt, ist es scheiße.


No direct list. Trash article.
Thanks to that one YouTube comment by a “ByteRGB”
I thought he was more of a web developer…
