CaptainBlinky@lemmy.myserv.oneto Technology@lemmy.world•Peter Thiel Antichrist lecture: We asked guests what the hell it isEnglish11·6 days agoNGL this sounds more like some manchild spewing his beliefs than some nefarious end of the world cult dude trying to manipulate the masses. I’m sorta relieved in a way.
CaptainBlinky@lemmy.myserv.oneto News@lemmy.world•Voters oust San Francisco supervisor who turned a coastal highway into a car-free park9·6 days agoEngardio, a victim’s advocate who turned a road into a park is cosplaying as a leftist? Why do you say that? There is such a weird thing about who’s left and who isn’t on this platform, and I’m really trying to understand it.
CaptainBlinky@lemmy.myserv.oneto News@lemmy.world•Jimmy Kimmel Pulled “Indefinitely” By ABC After Over Charlie Kirk Comments4·6 days agoHere’s hoping. Colbert too.
CaptainBlinky@lemmy.myserv.oneto News@lemmy.world•Jimmy Kimmel Pulled “Indefinitely” By ABC After Over Charlie Kirk Comments11·6 days agoSure, if you ignore the fact that CBS settled with Trump for $16 million because he didn’t like their free speech, and now they have new Trumpian leadership. You’re absolutely right they have the legal right do do what they want with their business. but the alternative is being attacked by the government again, so is that your real argument?

CaptainBlinky@lemmy.myserv.oneto News@lemmy.world•Jimmy Kimmel Pulled “Indefinitely” By ABC After Over Charlie Kirk Comments231·6 days agoFreedom of the press is literally the first amendment. Television is protected by the first amendment. He was suspended because right wing lunatics didn’t like his free speech. In what world does this NOT have anything to do with the first amendment? Why am I even replying to you? You obviously have no idea what free speech means.
CaptainBlinky@lemmy.myserv.oneto News@lemmy.world•Jimmy Kimmel Pulled “Indefinitely” By ABC After Over Charlie Kirk Comments152·6 days agoFrom what I read he was a groyper and felt that Kirk wasn’t right leaning enough. but the news manipulates the information daily, so, :shrug🤷
CaptainBlinky@lemmy.myserv.oneto News@lemmy.world•Jimmy Kimmel Pulled “Indefinitely” By ABC After Over Charlie Kirk Comments4967·6 days agoJust to be clear: they suspended him for criticizing MAGA for trying to claim that the killer wasn’t one of them. He didn’t say anything about Charlie Kirk. He was censored for speaking truth by his own network. Not only censored, censured and suspended indefinitely.
We’re 100% there kids. The founding fathers made a point to put something right after freedom of speech, from religion, and of assembly. Right there 2nd in order. Unabridged. Welp the 1st amendment is being abridged as we speak. And I hear that second thing was put in place to protect that first thing. I’ve been hearing it for over 50 years.
*quick edit in case anyone else wants to try to educate me about the constitution: no, he isn’t protected by the 1st amendment from getting suspended. ABC should be protected but seeing as they’ve already settled for $16 million over threats on their FCC license and brought in new trump-friendly leadership, we can all agree he wasn’t suspended due to ratings drops. Stop pretending things are normal. This is an obvious 1st amendment issue.

CaptainBlinky@lemmy.myserv.oneto Technology@lemmy.world•What would stop you from switching to a flip phone (or dumbphone) in 2025?English21·9 days agoMy job. I have to answer emails in the field, I need GPS to get to job sites (they don’t sell ADC map books at 7-11 anymore). I need to take pictures and respond to texts. I don’t need these things but as a business owner I’d rather have the one smart box in my pocket than have to carry around the individual tools for reasons. Also, I carry a flip phone. It just happens to be an extremely smart flip phone (Razr)
Oh, and ParkMobile. I can pay for parking nationwide with my phone. And Audiobooks. and… well shit, I guess it doesn’t end really. Sudoku while I poo for example.
Oh, oh, and also… why would I want to get rid of my smart phone? You meantion getting sleep. I don’t use my phone in bed. Bed is for sleeping and sexy times. I don’t do social media (unless you include this which is really just the modern version of channel surfing with chat attachment.) Maybe it’s my age. I didn’t grow up with screens like kids these days so to me it’s just another tool. I’m responding to this on my PC not my phone.
Welp, now we know how Adams feels about the very New Yorkers he wants to “represent.”
