This is excellent article on enshitification, some of the factors that can lead to it, and ways founders could think about it to hopefully avoid it. What it doesn’t seem to talk about is how Tailscale intends to avoid it, now and in the future.

Surgery, especially on animals.

In any other context, someone cutting you open, slicing bits out or rearranging them, them sewing you shut would be considered horrific, but we do it because we know that the short term suffering out weighs the long term harm of not doing it. When you choose it for yourself it might not be too ‘evil’, but an animal would not understand, even if you know it will mean they get to live a long, happy life, free of the pain and suffering that issue would otherwise cause.

Piefed seems to have this, and the ability to subscribe to posts as @TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works asks about below.

Migrating is fairly straightforward, it can import your lemmy settings to get you up and running quickly, and the systems interoperate seamlessly, which is fantastic to see.

This is painfully true. I want to say something pithy about it, but my brain is filled with cotton wool and sludge.

I presume trump thinks he can do their job with with a marker and some poster board.

“They will hunt you, they are like a cross between a lentil and a velociraptor,”

Well, that’s a horrifying image.

Yes, the IMEI uniquly identifies the phone itself, so if the GSM radio is on, the network can monitor it’s approximate location.

There’s a couple of caveats: IMEI cloning is possible, but unlikely, and he accuracy of the triangulation will depend on a lot of factors including how far apart the towers are and what sort of obstructions there are between you and the towers. My understanding is that it is done by comparing your signal strength at each of the towers as a proxy for distance. If there’s a large obstruction that reduces your signal to a tower it could throw those measurements off. They’ll know you’re in the area, but not exactly where.

Nope, absolutely no vampires here, definitely none at all, no siree. No vmpires in this house.

Can confirm, no warrent carrying vampires have gotten into my house without permission from someone inside.

You didn’t “punish” them in the slightest, they’re not the ones who will suffer, you punished everyone else instead by deliberately acting to boost the republicans.

To be clear, this is not a good, or even acceptable situation, but it is the reality. Each voter had the choice to accept that reality and work within it to seek out the least bad result or vote as if their fantasy was true, and aid the republucans.

The time for trying to change the Democrat positions is every other day, not on the day of a massively consequential election.

Can’t argue with that logic. I always knew those feathered menaces were out to get us.

The same as before, that you made your choice to hand the White House to trump rather than a Democrat you didn’t agree with. It’s the same story down the ticket too. The Democrats may have run a lousy campaign, with poor candidates, but we all knew what the alternative was, and some ostensably left wing voters chose not to oppose that.

He needs this on his office door. It’d really set the tone for meetings.

All right, fine. It’s wok fried rice… No, wait, I see where this is going.

Quite right. It’s human fried rice with shrimp.

It looks like you’re going to have to reconnect a couple of traces, but if you’ve got some magnet wire and a fine tipped iron you should be good to go. You probably don’t need that bit on the left, it doesn’t look important.

Once you realise that most people don’t read most of the information you give them, it sort of becomes a secret power. You can hide all sorts of things in a five paragraph email, let alone a full report.

I started offering cash prizes in the middle of reports, to be claimed simply by telling me you’d read that bit. Not a single taker. I stopped writing the reports after that, and no one noticed.

If you had the covid vaccine, you’re going to die in a year. Which year exactly is not clear, but we’ll definitely be in a year when you die.

The thing is, humans are astonishingly good at conserving energy when running. We can literally run prey to death by just keeping on going when most animals run out of energy.

I like it. We could combine it with @sbv@sh.itjust.work 's blood and skulls suggestion for extra pizzaz.
