Nice, looking at it made me feel surprisingly nostalgic. I guess you don't really see tiling backgrounds much anymore. Nice work on the archive too!

That's a fire hazard (in case you weren't already considering it)

With authoritarianism on the rise has the internet helped or hurt the cause for democracy and collective rule? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] StellarExtract@lemm.ee 13 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I'm guessing I'm probably slightly younger than you, but I'm still old enough to remember how things were before the web took everything over. I definitely agree with some of your point, but I think there's some cause for optimism!

  • finally democratize information - Information really is more democratized than any other prior time in human history. There is a bunch of bad information mixed in as well, but that doesn't negate the benefits that the internet has brought in this regard. If I have the time and the motivation I can give myself a college level education just using free resources on the internet.
  • do away with misinformation and pseudoscience - this is definitely a problem on the internet, but I think if we didn't have the internet it would still be a problem. We have whole news networks that were founded specifically to pump out misinformation. That just happened to start around the advent of the internet but was not caused by it.
  • promote critical thinking - yeah, I don't think the internet has helped much on this front, but again I don't think it has actually made it much worse. People are overall much more educated today than they were decades ago. Their ignorance is just also much more visible.
  • freedom and democracy - the internet has enabled a new rise of fascism which is horrifying, but it has also enabled unprecedented coordination and strength in minority communities on a global scale. I think we would be much farther behind socially if the internet hadn't appeared.

Damn, I didn't know what had happened to her. I really liked her content.

I use Trello to manage several lists (recurring daily, Tuesdays only, one-offs, etc) and reconcile them into a daily plan each morning
