If it feels like old twitter now will it feel like new twitter eventually?

The medium is the message and the platform is the users.

The big brain move was to ask them first, thereby proving you wanted to use their IP.

If he had just faked it anyway without asking he might have got away with it.

Genius strategist.

I’m interested to hear what everyone uses as an alternative.

The second it becomes the standard is the second google looks for ways of nerfing it.

It was also a work of fiction.

Or propaganda.

A lot of 80s/90s TV was selling a lie because it was primarily written by the upper middle classes portraying the lives of the working class.

They had little idea how things actually worked.

So, like none of these folk read The Running Man then?

Or many of the hundred times this idea has been used in Sci-fi.

It’s always been about context and provenance. Who took the image? Are there supporting accounts?

But also, it has always been about the knowlege that no one… Absolutely no one… Does lines of coke from a woven mat floor covering.

He’s been arrested, not sentenced. That’s the innocent until proven guilty bit.

Not sure where you are from, but I suspect not the UK.

Huffing lead is just OG eating microplastics.

The forgotten generation. Little chance of owning a hone or a business, skipped over for work.

Still, at least we have spent our whole lives learning to be slackers.

Or, conversely, just switch to Linux.

Take an hour or so to have a look around the place.

Go on the internet if you have any questions.

People are smarter than you assume and if you want Linux to grow in popularity we need to stop pretending any if this is difficult.

I think some folk want to pretend using Linux is hard so that they can feel more… Uh… Technical for using it.

Hey, I’d go down if I knew he’d go down with me.

Or just being an absolute wanker.

Yeah, OK, time to hack their schedule.

Look on your list, you’ve already been in here today.

This is just a tutorial level.

features with a high degree of customizability - you can swap out the back cover, and also attach things like a lanyard.

Are you saying that I made something up? If so, let me know which bit it is and I’ll happily correct it.

Just to be clear though, I wasn’t saying he hasn’t had an impact on British politics. As the front man for some very shady interests he helped bring about a brexit referendum by causing the Tory party internal angst (Cameron really thought the country would vote to remain and he’d silence the right of his party that was being egged in by Farage). Nor am I negating that he has enjoyed unprecedented media exposure that has helped divide the UK.

“Disrupter”… Yeah, we need to stop using that word. He’s as much part of the establishment as the Tory members he’s helped replace.

His party is a corporate entity, and we’ll see how he gets on niw that he legally has to file his financial interests.

If you read the paper…
