It's the same thing with people disillusioned by Marvel or Star Wars or whatever. You need to be able to tell internalize that if you want content that isn't slop, you're going to have to hunt a lot harder for it, and pay a lot more for it, than you did in the past.

I like how there's a degree of "too old to cancel" and R. Crumb is in there. I don't think people who bring up how messed up a dude he is can get much social currency from cancelling him, so he just kinda persists.

Remember when the Angry Video Game Nerd said that he wasn't going to see Ghostbusters (2016) because it looked like a bad movie that didn't respect the fans, and he didn't want to subject himself to something that would make him angry and didn't respect him as a longtime fan?

And how they made him out to be a sexist piece of shit because of it?

You can't even say "I'm choosing not to participate because it's literally 'not for me.'"

If people did that, the thing might flop. They need your lack of critical thinking and compliance.

It depends if they're using it to empathize, or if they're using it to call attention to themselves. It requires a self-awareness to know that the moment is "not about them".

I can only imagine what it's like to be a journalist in higher education these days.

Messing with anything RSS should be considered terrorism against the Internet itself.

Man, I wish I could get into 4X games. Stellaris and CKII are games I've tried to put "tutorial time" into, but they don't catch as much as Factorio or Rimworld.

Basically "we can't prove this, lol."

I've been doing similar for software I find on a Gist

Yes, but not all the features of it; if you're using the most recent "upgraded" Reminders, all you can do on web is create new tasks and add notes. You can't:

  - Add or edit lists
  - Add reminders or due dates
  - Add tagging or priority
  - Add things like location-based reminders

Just crappy all around.

It's frustrating, because this likely won't be usable on Desktop, Windows, or the majority of workspaces. I actually don't mind the Reminders app, but like iMessage, I can't use it on my main Windows desktop, so I don't.

I can count on one hand the amount of times I've FaceTimed someone because of fragmentation in my network with Android.

I feel it's very difficult to find communities for writing (not fiction writing, but like, "writing for web" or "content writers") without it devolving into shilling or self-promo.
