Trump is also planning to increase exports. However, many customers are aware of the climate impact their actions have, so buying from environmentally ethical sources isn’t just a fantasy any more. Companies and individual consumers are beginning to care about these things, which could have an impact on those ambitious export plans.

If you merely abandon your account, the change can be seen in the MAU statistics. If you delete it instead, you’ll make sure you won’t slip in the future. Either way, investors care about the active users, because the total number of accounts isn’t a very useful number to them.

Oh, that’s interesting. Lucky you, I guess. The algorithms have been tuned to be as engaging as possible, and that seems to be working for most people. Obviously, it’s impossible to make it work for literally everyone, and you seem to be one of the few who can escape the algorithm.

The lack of an algorithm is a solution. Social media tends to be too addictive to the point it can be harmful to humans, so Mastodon was intentionally designed to be less addictive.

Do you enjoy torturing and murdering people, but never had to courage to actually fulfill your dreams because they aren’t entirely aligned with local legislation? This is an opportunity for you. Now you can follow your unnatural urges, and get paid for it! Join the American Atrocities Squad today and make your sick and perverted dreams come true.

I think it’s going down.

And they are ok with living under the same roof with each other? If you can live like a queen, you probably are willing to make some compromises. Either that or Musk is one helluva negotiator. If it’s the latter, Musk should really try to talk to the leaders of Israel and Hamas.

And what’s the deal with the plural of “mothers”? Sounds like he has several wives or x-wives living with him.

Hate to break it to you, but what politicians say before elections and what they do afterwards are only vaguely associated, not actually correlated. Just because Trump said this and that doesn’t mean he’s actually going to follow through. I’m sure he’ll come up with more awful ways to abuse his power. Just give him some time.

Oh, but there are options. Stalin used gulags while Hitler used Zyklon B. You don’t necessarily have to torture undesirable people with just violence, cold and starvation. I’m sure Americans will figure something out. Oh wait, they already have! Remember Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo bay. Just copy, paste and call it a day.

Still waiting to see American presidents in Hague for these atrocities.

I’m still in the messy stage, but I’ve made preparations for C. Pretty soon I’ll get a newer used phone and tablet, and they’re both going to be type C.

Currently I have a few things that use C, so I’ve already got some cables and chargers for them. Once the transition is complete, I’ll get rid of a bunch of old cables.

You can think of space-time as a 4D object. If it’s a flat plane (more correctly, a hyperplane), it could be infinitely big. If it’s s sphere or a torus, it would be finite. It could also be an infinitely long pipe.

Either way, the shape doesn’t have to be perfectly smooth. A plane can have wrinkles, where two points touch. Likewise, a pipe can have knots and bends. All of this would happen in 4D space, so our 3D brains can’t really visualize any of it.
