I have this card.

I’m an immigrant to the US by way of marriage. When I moved here we opened an account at chase where my now wife banks - a joint for us both and one for me.

When faced with having three near identical blue cards I asked if there was any option other than blue

Imagine my face when I heard possibly the most American phrase I’ve ever heard: “You can have the brand colors, or Disney”

6! hours? An entire month?

I was looking for this. every single time I type something on my phone I wish I had a blackberry still

I used a site that let’s you follow the same accounts on Masto as you did on Twitter.

the car replaced the horse, the plane replaced the ship, we still drive, we still travel.

My prediction is that AI will replace the PC like it replaced the typewriter, like it replaced the quill.

People will still write and act, but it will be a faster process.

Banshees of Inisherin? The Whale? Everything Everywhere All At Once? Succession? The Bear?

There’s loads of great acting out there. Maybe the issue is you’re buying tickets to Chris Pratt instead of other things?

well my hope is it pushes investment back.into leisure and third space usage, to encourage people back into cities for fun reasons rather than just to operate a keyboard which I can do from anywhere

I agree. I have it turned off for now because it was dumb seeing stupid porn, but I don’t mind reading about other adult topics, and self-tagging NSFW stuff is obviously capriciously applied. What would be inappropriate to some is not to others. It would be nice to be able to control that more granularly.

I guess disaster movies are right, we do go straight to hell real quick.

technically signing up for any service gets you put on a list, and there are very few lists anyone has - including handwritten ones in your kitchen drawer - that the government/police couldn’t access if they really wanted to.

Privacy, safety, security are conventions and habits of politeness mostly.
