  • While I find this season hasn’t been terribly well written or even all that funny, I really enjoy watching these episodes. In this time of instability and chaos, it feels somewhat cathartic to see them just go balls-to-the-wall with their insults on these absolute bastards. On a meta level, they seem to be dropping nuance to get reactions from their targets and even hoping to get sued, perhaps looking to shed light on some hypocrisy in their targets. Or maybe they are just Trey and Matt, frustrated at the current political situation and not inclined to give a fuck anymore. Cartman’s confusion is probably just them acknowledging their difficulty parodying people whose entire life is a farce.

    The end credits were a fucking riot, though.

    Illegitimi non carborundum.





  • This should be painfully obvious to anyone who spends a second thinking about it. It frustrates me to no end that people just trust these “services” blindly, when they can at any time, for any reason, take away your access with no recourse. Why do people accept these terms? Why do they trust companies that are not on their side? I struggle to understand it. Cloud should only be used as a backup - and not the only one at that. Is this an issue with computer literacy? Is it that people don’t understand how data is saved?



  • [Richard Stallman] usually does not browse the web directly from his personal computer. Instead, he uses GNU Womb’s grab-url-from-mail utility, an email-based proxy which downloads the webpage content and then emails it to the user.

    If you’re not doing this you’re not properly paranoid.
