@Ujub I'm just waiting for it to reach europe, thanks to our profitable immigration! Then it will be interesting to see what happens...
@freepatriot In the 50s they were probably treated and cured.
@neumaier They can just bring in more capital from inestors! 😎
@ChrisMayLA6 Why don't you just block them or ignore them? Bots are everywhere.
@freepatriot Yes... one for sure cannot say that he managed to change a lot.

One wonders if Snowden regrets throwing away his life to warn ungrateful Americans about unconstitutional NSA wire-tapping.
Ahh... the first tick of the season. I would not be sad if little f*ckers would just die.
@matthew And best of all, it will probably run without modifications for 20 years!

Last evening, I spent quite a bit of time reading in "gemini space" using the La Grange application.
I am pleasantly surprised by how much there is to read there. People are still posting regularly, though the peak publishing seems to be around 2022 - 2024 (just my observation, not measured).
I do want to emphasis that I was *reading* and not just browsing. There's a very different feel to reading text over the Gemini protocol compared to browsing on the web, Fediverse included.
There's a lot less time spent scrolling and it feels more like *exploring*.
I like it, but is that just my tendency to move toward things that are lesser known and lesser used? "The path less traveled" does not always give the results that we are looking for.
I found reading on Gemini to be enjoyable. I'm not tied to that protocol as the solution to the current problems of the internet, as the older Gopher protocol is worth exploring, too. And maybe something a bit different will emerge, but if you are unfamiliar with Gemini... it is worth checking out.

@lain the EU:s policy is always destructive. It is a kingdom of incompetence!
@Val_Dyz Yawn... give them the same punishment france, greece and the others got. They can always be compensated with more tax payers money.
@zybejis Deport to africa, problem solved!
@Val_Dyz Brilliant! Probably deserved it too, after helping to destroy sweden.

@mkoek @ChrisMayLA6 Ahh... so as always, we can then safely put the blame on journalists and leftist politicians, who thrive on the resentment.
If people were people, and wealth not made so public, we might actually achieve a harmonius society, without demonizing the rich.
@lain Rest assure, that if the world, in its imbecillity would ever agree to that, the 2 million would quickly increase, Iran would wield nukes and the entire region would be destabilized.
The key focus should instead be to remove all taxes on oil and gasoline. Tihs would be very benficial for the common man, therefore the politicians will of course never do it.
@Dan_Ramos Let us blame climate change! 😎
