@robertoblake@MADkurious People want quick and easy, not matter the long term effects. Patience is a dying skill. Consumers want their dopamine and they want it now! So companies are just finding the most cost effective way to give them that hit.
@robertoblake This leads to creators and advertisers to exploit human tendencies to get more eye balls. When you rank the emotions the drive actions easiest in humans #1 is fear and #2 is anger. The algo exist to drive interaction, so therefore it pushes fear and anger to get interaction. 2/2
@robertoblake I will say I consider advertising a form of mental poison, and if you are not paying the creator for the product, your time and mindspace is what is actually being sold. 1/2
@roylucier One day, I've love to get a doomsday dupiclator then I could get the cleanest signal possible from a VHS tape. I just would quickly run out of home server space due to the file sizes.

@roylucier Analog to digital conversion is definate time sink to do it right. Most of the stuff I'm currently restoring was converted to DVD, so I'm taking those files and doing color correction, cropping tracking lines, and upscaling them to 1080p.
@CardiffElect I worked in a now abandon office building across the street from it. It's a interesting part of town. He can walk across the street and visit the homeless camp that has overtaken the parking lot.
@shadydavy911@_MissClick_ I hate CVTs. A friend replaced the transmission twice in her car, only for it to fail the 3rd time. Her car was a 2016 as well.
@JeremyCom Alicia Silverstone memorabila. My prize piece is a set used script signed by her. When I had her sign it, she immediately recoginzed the handwriting on the cover as hers.
@vetjackvaughn We all know it's a work. NFL Creative is blatantly ripping off the Bloodline Story. Mahomes = Roman, Kelce Bros = Usos, Taylor = Heyman. I'm just waiting to see who ends up being their Sami Uso.
Chief end the regular season scoring 0 points, now it looks like the Chiefs will end the season with scoring 0 points.
Interesting storytelling by NFL Creative in this one.
Tomorrow, my wife Heather will have been gone for 5 years, taken by Stage 4 breast cancer at 35. As per her wishes, every year I shout about listening to your body everywhere I can. So this is that. If something doesn't feel right, don't wait. Go get it checked. Heather waited 4 months to say anything to anyone, and it ended up taking her life.

@robertoblake When you rely solely on ADSense, your content is not the product being sold. It's your audience's time that you're actually selling.
Your content just exist to farm their time
Your content only becomes the product, when you develop a direct relationship with the audience.
This may really seem dumb to some people, but remember I started tape trading at 17 years old, and at that time, All Japan had these segments called "P P P Pro Wrestling News", and Akira Fukusawa would get statements from wrestlers on the show after a match, but the funny thing was (and this still makes me chuckle 32 years later), is he would read the comments in Japanese in the wrestlers voice, like Stan Hansen here, that just sounded so hilarious. This is January 1993

A GoFundMe was just started by the wife of 2 Cold Scorpio, who explains the unfavorable situation he was in while at work and what the current situation is @davemeltzerWON@ChrisVanVliet
