Luddites, the original ones were pretty rad. They were anti tech for anti capitalist reasons.

I agree that Luddite is the more correct term since it’s more general now, but I hate that the term got warped over time to mean anyone that hates any new tech

“I have to work 3 jobs to make rent and health insurance”

“But look at the numbers! We’re almost at full employment! Isn’t that great?”

I won’t call it pacifist mode exactly, but I prefer to play games like Tears of the Kingdom or even GTA by just walking around slowly and taking photos, observing the scenery. GTA San Andreas (the old ps2 version) is weirdly great for this because it has so many hazy colors and jaggy lines.

Problem with all of this is, life expectancy is going down, and we know they’re not just going to kindly lower it to accommodate us. Look at what happened in France this year just to keep it at the same age

Sounds like we need to make a c/fuckgolf

I think one of the exceptions to this is music. Of course there’s top 40 and whatnot, but it’s one of the areas where older hits either don’t go away, or get repackaged algorithmically into let’s say “stuff from that decade you like that you’ve never heard before.”

Of course it’s still being selected from a much larger sample. But I think there’s something different about music.

The rock where they think people can’t tell the difference between a press release and journalism
