This article reframes people being able to afford to stay in their homes as some kind of crisis.

Not present at any point in this article; any evidence that any American is stuck in a home they would rather leave. They couldn't even be bothered to quote a single homeowner who wanted to move let alone anything indicating that this is a common sentiment.

The only evidence cited are previous rates of housing mobility which are then taken simply as a natural norm with any deviation an unwanted aberration.

The idea that people might generally want to live in the homes they bought long term is not considered. The idea that those who move or downsize are often doing so reluctantly under pressure from their mortgage is not considered.

I can excuse attempting to compromise millions of computer systems worldwide for nefarious purposes but I draw the line at violating the contributor guidelines of an opensource project.

Threads exists for the sole purpose of capturing some of the people showing interest in the fediverse as twitter dies and keeping them in the facebook ecosystem. Once it believes it has exhausted this window of opportunity it will defederate just as it de-federated it's xmmp based messenger service once it thought it had the upperhand.

Every server that defederates from meta preemptively is working to build a resilient community that will survive this inevitable scenario. Every server that federates with meta will become dependent on it then collapse as their users leave to join threads once that becomes their only option to continue interacting with the threads users that their social experience was built on.

Your post only concerns threats to an individual user re scraping or malicious interactions. The threat meta poses to the fediverse is systemic. In the long run the meta-blocking servers are the fediverse. The meta-federating servers might see some short term attention but in the long run will have the same fate as those that hitched their wagons to the metaverse.

I think the idealization of this kind of spartan living space is basically the same as the cryptobro idealization of unregulated currency.

Over time exposure to reality will result in making compromise after compromise to solve each problem that arises until you have reinvented from first principles the very same standards that everyone else in society already arrived at.

I just tossed a coin out the window at the nearest child and told them to fetch me the plumpest turkey in the butcher's window.

Not all unencrypted apps are equivalent. Not wanting to use something owned by meta under any circumstances is completely reasonable.

So they basically said "doesn't count if there is jobs growth". As long as you can keep creating 10 precarious gig worker jobs for every 9 full time jobs that are eliminated then the economy is doing great!

There are two doors, one is labelled "Leopards that will eat your face" the other "Cat cafe" both lead into the same leopard cage.

It's on there but mislabeled as one of the others.
