🎬 Classic movie watching list
@bgcarlisle understand any such list would be short, but what about Harold and Maude?
@valleyforge if centralized is where all clients that use the service access servers under one domain of control, then decentralized would be where clients can access the service from servers under diverse domains of control. ex: You can use Google's nameservers and I can use my ISP's and we both get DNS
@valleyforge my point is "decentralized" doesn't say what you actually want - there's a lot of definitions that fit, including current DNS
@valleyforge
> implying DNS isn't decentralized
Why does Matt Inman draw himself as an obese person in his comics? He's a rather thin man (or at least was in 2014). #webcomic #theoatmeal
I really dislike the "meat prison" meme? Your body IS part of you, you think with your gut as much as you think with your brain or gonads, so much of who you are outside your hunger and horniness is what has been stuck in the physical memory of your brain. If you recorded your memories differently you would be a different person, if you did not have a sexdrive and you do, you would be a different person, you are the sum of small processecies taking place all over your body, not a trapped mind.
@darius or you might find it's still clunky and unstable

re: A lot of rambling about abusive tech and people who code it
For example: "Springer Nature — Research Book Series: Transactions on Computational Science and Computational Intelligence" is publishing a neophrenological paper called "A Deep Neural Network Model to Predict Criminality Using Image Processing."
The title is both admirably clear and terribly obscure. You could subtitle it: "Keep arresting brown people."

lgbt+ rights, us politics, supreme court (+)
The US Supreme Court just ruled (in deciding the case Bostock v. Clayton County, Georgia - for some reason, few of the articles about the decision mention that?) that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 covers homosexual and transgender individuals because punishing a trait or behavior that would go unpunished in someone of a different sex is discrimination by sex.
And it's a 6-3 decision.
It's more limited than we'd like but that seems like a good thing, and however limited it is, it pushes the norm pretty hard in a good direction.
