America is dead, play it off Keyboard Cat.
I don’t know what’s going on here or why that looks like Ron Livingston, but I upvoted it anyways.
it’s a Reddit link…but that’s how far back it goes
https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/u1qnr/this_is_to_date_the_only_video_ron_livingston/
it was the ONLY video Ron Livingston uploaded to YouTube. & that’s Ron Livingston’s head icymi and just hanging out
- fails to elaborate
- never uploads again
/end script
But he did post again! 6 years ago telling people to vote
It’s nice when artists realize they’ve peaked.
Back when the internet was just cat videos it was all upvotes always.
It’s definitely Ron Livingston. Why… is not our concern.
issue is it will collapse into neofeudalism, where the Czar Executive Officier of your network city will demand you work 16 hours every day, or he will send you to the wellness farms working 18 hours a day.
“Play me off, Johnny!”
I miss when tech entrepreneurs just wanted to get rich and retire young instead of becoming real life James Bond villains. Tom Anderson got a generation to learn HTML, got Rupert Murdoch to hand over $580mil for a social network that’d be dead within a few years, then had the decency to peace out and travel the world enjoying his photography hobby. No evil schemes. No fascism. Just pretty pictures.
While Tom was tomming, Zuckerberg was zucking.
Before either of them Gates was gatesing. TechCrunch entrepreneurs have always sucked.
This is another reason why income and wealth inequality are bad for us. We have a natural level of psychopathy in the population. Some are bound to stumble into the kind of power given by obscene inequality.
You can still watch cat videos, they’re just sandwiched in between hell and sadness to keep you scrolling.
With hundreds of flashing ads along the side-bar.
I lost the music I made in college to the MySpace database loss/crash/whatever.
Upside: the music I made in college is forever lost.
Filtering Youtube by 12+ years ago is a wild ride.
For those curious, just add “before:2010” (replace 2010 with whatever year you want) to your search query.
‼️ OMG, I just remembered. SpaceHey.
The internet was actually for porn
I can hear the music just by seeing the picture.
Same.
Such a good jam.
I left reddit for lemmy and now lemmy is just the same people complaining about the same stuff. What happened to cat pics, pirates, and robots?
I think it’s kinda hard to find spaces where people are gonna be willfully ignorant of the issues currently plaguing our lives. Sure, everyone wants a break from it and not think about it the latest infringement on our rights but outrage fatigue is something we need to be aware of.
I opened Lemmy after like a year and this post made me smile. I don’t see this as ‘complaining’ considering I just arrived from the cesspool that’s reddit.
To be fair, it’s probably not the same, but there is Spacehey. It is described as a modern Myspace. Haven’t logged in to mine for a while since I still haven’t learned how to make a profile theme thing, but it’s pretty fun (coming from someone who was never there for the Myspace revolution).
Rippers Keyboard Cat
In my wildest dreams as well, I wouldn’t have imagined the shit storm that is going on… and that too is amplified by internet which was supposed to be a good thing…
80s and 90s internet was peak. It all went downhill after that.
One of my earliest experiences with the Internet was seeing a picture of a country girl in cowboy boots with a carrot up her ass and an ear of corn stretching her pussy. It was 1991. I also played bridge with people in Asia in the middle of the night.
