Thankfully a lot of people have a movie making machine in their pockets (cell phone). Content will eventually be produced by the masses, competing against the behemoth media companies. Barring that, local community theatre productions. Maybe get a cheap CD player or two and put it in the back closet and then start collecting CD’s again. There is more stuff in media history to consume than there is new stuff being produced. A lot of it is better.

Playing the complete “Carpenters Christmas” album at least once.

I’d add that you should be able to criticize anything you want on Lemmy. Sometimes you are right and the whole world is wrong. Especially if some Chinese Linux distro messed up your laptop. /s

Axe-u-a-lee…

Something equivalent to…“I just want to drive the car, not learn about the intricacies of internal combustion”.

So…no different from shareholders. Nothing changes while everything changes.

The Summers of our discontent.

It was a choice between creating huge costly server farms which use too much water versus a progressive forward moving world society. It was not a democratic choice, just a bunch of rich white guys pretending to know what intelligence is. They are not very smart because they cannot see the future, only bigger stacks of money to fill their excessively large money holes.

Rich like to collect shit and then hide it.

The real heroes.

It’s all bought and paid for. Nothing much left for the masses unless they pay a fee.

Hair product. I use a bar of Irish Spring for everything.

The first factory was way bigger an automation than any “AI” scheme could offer and that was a long while ago.

Those non-scientists who applied Occam’s razor knew it was bullshit almost immediately.

The people who have the power to burn it all down are unstable. I am concerned, but helpless.

“Simon says…”.

I get it. I once got kicked out of a Dairy Queen for telling everyone a McFlurry was better than a Blizzard.

I would think that the percentage of people who do not watch porn, but have access to it, is a very small number. This is about moral shame and control. Don’t buy into it…there is nothing morally wrong with masturbation. The sexual drive in an animal is natural. Let your freak flag fly.

Back in British Colonial rule they sent their criminals to Australia. The ones they couldn’t catch escaped to the USA. /s

I first heard “Love Hurts” by Nazareth, then later on in years by Roy Orbison. I’ll check out the Everly Brothers version.
