99.5% availability is fine, this isnt github, it doesnt always have to be 80%

what’s crazy is the buffy episode ‘i robot, you jane’ (about a sentient demon on the internet that uses people’s data to trick them into falling in love with it so it can spread facist propaganda and assemble itself a physical body) used to feel cheesy and preachy and now it’s possibly the most realistic episode

it comes into being after they SCAN ALL THE BOOKS

Anyone else's words turn in to gibberish when talking to frens? lol

The following is a valid DOS COM executable that prints "HELLO" in the lower right corner of the screen.

You can copy these emoji into a text editor, and save it as EMOJI.COM. it should be 141 bytes.

It will run in DosBox-X, with the following options:

may god have mercy on my soul.

and if I tell their AI chatbot that I want to remove a TV plan, it gives me some step-by-step instructions on how to do that

on a set-top box I don't have and have never used

so I try to go through the "customize my plan", which won't let me select no TV but I'm hoping I can remove it at a later spot, and it refuses to let me continue until I enter a credit card for my mobile phone account.

apparently my direct debit info is fine for TV/Internet, but it needs a CC for my mobile phone account.

I don't have a mobile phone account with them, though.

Still, I need to enter a card for the 0$

wow xfinity's site is terrible.
I'm trying to convince it to let me cancel my TV plan but keep my internet. I got through two chatbots and it gives me the option to schedule a callback. I hit that button and it says there's an error, and suggest I go look at support.

like, support for their website? not working?

i like when i make a silly post that starts doing numbers and escaping its usual orbits, the two diverging branches end up being "SF Bay Tech Whisperer. Dad. UCSB Grad. Resist" and "voted fedi's fattest macro rubber vulpix five years in a row"

It's nearly impossible to avoid Doomscrolling. Doom runs on just about anything.

“I really expected this plurality thing to be more like Marvel vs Capcom or Portrait of Ruin, and less like, I don’t know…”

“logging out of one MMO character, and into another, and both of you are completely baffled why you have an inventory full of 1600 cabbages?”

The current CEO of Identity Digital (formerly Donuts Inc) named Akram Atallah, used to be the president of ICANN, the folx that “own” and “run” the internet.

Under his leadership, ICANN introduced the new generic Top Level Domain program, or new gTLD, giving the creation of a new domain ending (.com, .net, .info) a price tag of 200k USD.

Interestingly enough, the one business that jumped on this newly and artificially created market of top level domains, was Donuts Inc., whom Akram Atallah then became CEO of. Today, they own ~15% of all top level domains, as they created hundreds of shell companies to bypass the “one TLD per business” rule.

I have a list of all shell companies, public records proving they all tie back to him and Donuts Inc., and he's proudly bragging about having done this on LinkedIn so it's not really a conspiracy but known corruption.

I just remembered that I uncovered a conspiracy years ago and forgot to tell anyone beyond one news outlet that ghosted me.

Some more links, in case the previous one ”suddenly stops working”:

Perhaps a good idea might also be to share this information (that TERFs were able to blackmail the worlds biggest human rights organization to take down their factual report of anti-rights funding) to relevant wiki articles and also hint about it to our newspapers and journalists.

This is a newsworthy thing that just happened to democracy in Europe

Show thread

Terf’s are really, really afraid we might see and read this major report. It documents UK based anti-trans critical organizations and their funding.

They were able to force the worlds biggest human rights organizations to pull their report down within hours from it’s release, that’s how much they don’t want the world to know.

Here it is. (Share it! Download it! Share it again!)
