  • In the mid-2000s, I remember getting a podcast for my coworker and putting it on 80min CDs so he can play it in his car. So CDs were like [episode 15]. And sometimes, the podcast would go long so I had to make two CDs.

    He didn't have an MP3 player and didnt know how to use the internet. And he paid me a few bucks for the work.

    I think I made like a $100 from reselling free podcasts to my coworker.

  • This is where I'm conflicted.

    I don't use Spotify because I don't believe in ads or paying money for things that are relatively easy to get. Im also not into music, which means my NEED to get anything is pretty low.

    Where gaming, Steam is a platform. One could argue the ads are in the store page or all the sales. But there's still a huge pirate community. There's still GoG. All the other drm platforms are miniscule so not going to talk about them.

    Where Steam is different is that shit just works on Steam. I can download a game from 2005, install, and I'm at the title screen. If I pirate, I have to do a handful of things to get to the title screen. Same with GoG. My Steamdeck is amazing! I've been actually rethinking building PCs in favor of just getting new Steam Decks.

    TIL in 2018, when Laura Loomer was kicked off of Twitter, she chained herself to the front door. But only to one door, and everyone used the other door and ignored her.

    Laura Loomer, a far-right conspiracy theorist and activist, handcuffed herself to the front door of Twitter's headquarters in New York City on Thursday, after she was banned from the platform for hate speech.

    But the protest ended just over two hours later, with little fanfare, when Ms Loomer had to ask police officers to help free her from the cuffs.

    Having only attached herself to one of the two doors, the activist did not fully obstruct the entrance and the company's employees seemed largely unconcerned by the protest as they walked past her.

    MAGA is turning against Laura Loomer

    Several prominent members of Donald Trump's MAGA (Make America Great Again) movement are urging the former president to cut ties with controversial activist Laura Loomer, with one ally in Congress accusing the former Florida House candidate of making "appalling and extremely racist" remarks.

    The anger came after Loomer was pictured with Trump at two 9/11 memorial events on Wednesday after she posted a racially charged diatribe aimed at Vice President Kamala Harris on X, formerly Twitter.
