| schestowitz-pi2 | <techrights-news> "Letting kids have unfettered access to it is dangerous and deeply wrong, and Murthy should say so without weaseling. This shouldnβt be controversial; indeed it wouldnβt β no parent anywhere would disagree." β https://nypost.com/2023/05/29/social-medias-a-disaster-for-teens-yet-surgeon-general-only-whispers-worry/ | May 30 20:45 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | did not click (rupert murdoch), but good if even the rogues on that side agree on social control media being bad | May 30 20:46 |
| XFaCE | It's good for those who want social control though. Which will (ideally) never be any of us. | May 30 21:57 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | exactly | May 30 21:59 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | but it started quite benign, XFaCE | May 30 21:59 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | i was on digg.com | May 30 21:59 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | 2005 or 2006 | May 30 21:59 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | maybe 2005, earlier... | May 30 21:59 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | it was a way to find and vote on tech news stories | May 30 22:00 |
| XFaCE | I always preferred BB/forums. | May 30 22:00 |
| XFaCE | Funny how we were on Identi.ca way before the concept of a Twitter alternative hit mainstream. | May 30 22:01 |
| XFaCE | Which in hindsight is like having competition in poison food. | May 30 22:01 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | Identi.ca was much later | May 30 22:02 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | around 2008-2011 | May 30 22:02 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | as reddit and twitter rose | May 30 22:03 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | facebook was also growing at the time | May 30 22:03 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | but not yet as malicious | May 30 22:03 |
| XFaCE | Yeah, before that I stuck to forums. | May 30 22:03 |
| XFaCE | And still do. | May 30 22:03 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | not good, but less harmful.. around 2006 | May 30 22:03 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | i had phpbb in schestowitz.com | May 30 22:03 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | since around 2004 | May 30 22:03 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | but it never took off really, no community there | May 30 22:04 |
| XFaCE | It's funny that for us familiar with existing tech the social media boom was not nearly as revolutionary in terms of functionality. | May 30 22:04 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | that's the strange thing | May 30 22:04 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | see "apps" | May 30 22:04 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | most that you look at | May 30 22:04 |
| XFaCE | see "cloud" | May 30 22:04 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | back button, very limited options | May 30 22:04 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | and yet it spreads | May 30 22:04 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | clown computer is just GUI | May 30 22:04 |
| XFaCE | It would be one thing if apps was a mobile only thing tailored to those small screens. | May 30 22:05 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | like cpanel but more proprietarty and you cannot buy a licence | May 30 22:05 |
| XFaCE | But as you say, it's spreads to larger form factors. | May 30 22:05 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | you must use it on one company's server | May 30 22:05 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | and they change the prices | May 30 22:05 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | you must accept the price hikes and GUI changes | May 30 22:05 |
| XFaCE | It's basically the IBM mainframe/terminal model for the 21st century. | May 30 22:05 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | small screens is a step back | May 30 22:05 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | it now has people who stare at screens while walking out the dog | May 30 22:06 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | on the dinner table | May 30 22:06 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | i don't see it as a plus | May 30 22:06 |
| XFaCE | Yes, back in the day, people understood that Palm pilots for instance were a supplement to the primary computing experience. | May 30 22:06 |
| XFaCE | Not THE computing experience. | May 30 22:06 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | hey, maybe they want to sit on toilet bowls in the dinner table | May 30 22:06 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | to multitask some more | May 30 22:06 |
| XFaCE | And get hemmroids | May 30 22:06 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | palm pilots did not do notifications but alarms | May 30 22:06 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | "4pm, got a meeting, g2g, cya later" | May 30 22:07 |
| XFaCE | I've made a conscious effort to not bring my cell phone along. | May 30 22:07 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | not "someone liked my photo, so I will pretend to listen to you (but won't" | May 30 22:07 |
| XFaCE | Even to the point of getting a good old digital watch | May 30 22:07 |
| XFaCE | Albeit with radio-based time sync. | May 30 22:07 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | i use landline | May 30 22:08 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | they get rid of POTS | May 30 22:08 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | so the phones now use the fibreoptics connection | May 30 22:08 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | the old handsets don't work | May 30 22:08 |
| XFaCE | Yep, power goes out, so goes the phone. | May 30 22:08 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | yes! | May 30 22:08 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | i told them that | May 30 22:09 |
| XFaCE | Back in the day that would be unheard of. | May 30 22:09 |
| XFaCE | The phone was a lifeline. | May 30 22:09 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | BT outage, how to phone BT? | May 30 22:09 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | they might say, "mobile" | May 30 22:09 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | no thanks | May 30 22:09 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | they charge even for 0800 numbers | May 30 22:09 |
| XFaCE | I'm increasingly irritated by arbitrary cell phone requirements. | May 30 22:10 |
| XFaCE | When the company won't budge, I end up using a VOIP number at worst. | May 30 22:11 |
| XFaCE | But that implicit "of course you have a cell phone" push is so nefarious. | May 30 22:11 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | we need to push back | May 30 22:19 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | in their face, so to speak | May 30 22:19 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | so they maintain alternatives | May 30 22:19 |
