Something about LCD Soundsystem inspires me to delete things.

If you tell someone HEY GET FREE STUFF HERE at guide42.xyz/ if you take a survey and retweet something X times, you'll bring out perhaps would could be considered the mentally-ill of the Internet.

Either you just spam channels with self-promotion with automated systems to get noticed (which is essentially... Twitter) or you pretend to be-like-us and waste a lot of time pretending.

When everyone is saturated with their perfect social media bubble they're just not going to explore anything.

Cost of the experiment: time and about $10.

This essentially means that user-engagement on the web is so long-tailed and siloed that you can't bootstrap anything without advertising, pornography or criminal-supporting activity such as piracy, hacking or scams.

nb. The Guide42 experiment's plug is going to get pulled on May 8th.

Grr... when websites are down I grit my teeth and wish tooling was better.

Went ahead and bumped up the font size to 20px for the site. "How to Kill Your Dog with Jerky" perhaps now more readable than ever.

Today's cutting: Unfollowing services and automated news feeds.

The quality of content on the social networks has really taken a downturn. I'm including Reddit, G+, Twitter and Mastadon in this.

Perhaps this is the new dark age?

There is more compelling content on the 4chan/8chan's it seems because of the implicit anonymity... once you cut through the shitposting.

If I do get a working #OPNsense + SafeStack installation image built, would anyone like to play with it? I'll upload it if so. #infosec #firewall #FreeBSD

Does anyone know if there is a new comprehensive document on how to use ? They've added a slew of features.

It's a nice feeling when there are a bunch of people checking out your website.

Facebook has killed the web. If it isn't on the Facebook it doesn't exist.
