I read the Godfather when I was about 10. My shoebox diorama was the horse head on the bed. It was frowning because it didn’t like having its head cut off.

Final Cut Pro. There isn’t anything else that compares.

India alone is about 2 billion people who all use WhatsApp. I cannot change the world. I hear you and would love for us all to switch to federated or — at least — decentralized things, or whatever. I will advocate for it, but like banks and shit are using WhatsApp. It is legitimized here even more than MMS. I can’t stop it. And yes, I have made the choice to communicate with humans rather than using Signal.

My point is the network effect. That’s where people are and I have no power to change that, so that is where I must sometimes be. If it was up to me, things would be wonderful and open source. But I sometimes have to deal with — ugh… humans.

I wish I could stop using WhatsApp but that’s where all the people without phone plans are. I wish I could stop using Telegram but that’s where all the drug dealers are. I wish Reddit would ban X links, but that’s where all the sassy hot takes are.

I especially love that he didn’t say where he was running rm -rf and I like to believe it’s from root

I assumed that’s what he meant and is telling people to kill themselves.
