@SirJadeja We're not customers of Twitter and Facebook. We're products of Twitter and Facebook. I don't know about you, but I've never paid them a dime for their services....
So, whoever is giving them the money is the customer. We're part of the product.
@SirJadeja Not at all. Those are companies that make money. They have, first and foremost, a responsibility to make more money for stockholders.
A company doesn't work for it's customers. It provides goods and services for those customers.
Figure out who a company's real customers are, and you'll figure out why they do the things they do.

Mob justice is exactly what we saw with wil wheaton. It doesnt work too well IMO.
@SquidPresident@cryptids.online @eggspeedy I thought you needed variable conditions for cryptids. Lakes, forests, mountains, sewers! A city where a ghost who is also a butcher can live. I mean, how are you going to get a ghost butcher in Kansas?! It's all corn and cows!
@lincoln1988 @SquidPresident@cryptids.online It's not easy being cheesy at cheetah speeds.
@SquidPresident@cryptids.online I'm pretty sure my bones have been previously claimed by @socialskeleton Once I'm done hanging all this meat on them, anyways.
#introduction Hi. I had written an earlier post but it lacked details. So a grad student in physics, with applications in (macro-)economics. Have my fingers in lots of pies: Pyrotechnics, Science popularization, Freelance on machine learning and deep learning. Like to learn new languages - computer and human. Interested in new pedagogical techniques and/or bringing teaching into the 21st century. Looking to discuss on any/every topic under the sun. Good day!

#Help wanted!
With some friends we are setting up a local informal environmentalist group, with the aim of pushing forward good practices, spread sustainability, ecological awareness, and this kind of #solarpunk. stuff.
So far we are planning of doing #permaculture , #food production, #composting workshops, #Seed library, #GuerrillaGardening, collective purchase from #RegenerativeAgriculture farms, but we'd like to have more on the todo list.
Help me get out of our echo chamber, and give me your ideas about more activities we could engage ourselves and the local communities in.
Thanks!
@cm Yeah, I had turtles like that as a kid. Mine wasn't too bitey, though. I think she liked being handled. Used to brush her shell with a tooth brush. She really enjoyed it, I think.
I did get bitten a few times, though. At least once was enough to break the skin, as I recall. But, usually my fault. I learned to be wary of the front end of the turtle.
@cm Yeah, but that is a snapping turtle. It might just break the spoon.
Honestly, they guy is lucky his face appears to be mostly intact after that stupid decision.
@Surasanji My husband has been watching that on a loop and giggling now for a while. I think you have a fan:)
