The Matrix is unrealistic because it's a movie where a black man and a woman tell a straight white man that everything he knows is wrong, and he just accepts that.
"oh shit my thermostat got a virus that helped ddos a gamer and now my doorbell is turning me in to the police" said dirk chuggly as he cracked open an energy drink aerated with real nitrous oxide
"uhh my headphones need to connect to a special app to make them work good and i forgot to charge my cigarette" said the hero of a bullshit cyberpunk novel noone would ever read called the year 2019
The history/body of posts created feels inaccessible by design in corporate social media (which tends to favor Now and Disposable) but what if posting, favoriting and reposting were a way to build a library/keep a journal of content?
I have done this with twitter and such but it always feels like using the tool in a way it isn't supposed to. I guess pinterest is sorta about this? I havent used it.

Yikes, I really need to cut down even more on my meat consumption. 1 kg beef has an equivalent carbon opportunity cost as flying a return trip across the Atlantic!
i feel like it's bittersweet to see mobile device storage going up and up while at the same time less and less people remember what it's like to actually own your media.
@witchfynder_finder Qutebrowser is great, but its controls are basically just vim controls which have been around for decades and decades and if you learn qutebrowser you kind of learn a whole family of programs written in the vim style.
This is a great intro to vim controls that works right in your browser! https://www.openvim.com/

Im sorry I dont mean to obnoxious, those are just both are keyboard driven interfaces under active development and I get excited about keyboard driven stuff lol.
Qutebrowser does a cool thing (that I think the text editor vim does?) where you hit a key and every link on the webpage gets a little popup with a sequence of letters like "fsf" for example, and if you hit that sequence it clicks on the link for you. It works really well and is very fast.
You never have to use a mouse, it looks gorgeous and you can easily search for a command in plain english and find it or you can start a key sequence and it will list every possible completion of that sequence and its associated command.
