  So the argument is that by encouraging its members to stop advertising on Twitter this organization has deprived the market of conservative content and viewpoints which violates both antitrust and first amendment protections. I feel like that’s going to be a tough sell considering Elon told advertisers concerned about his takeover of Twitter to go fuck themselves and he didn’t need their money.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google reshapes Fitbit in its image as users allege “planned obsolescence”⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My wife and I both had our fitbits die a few weeks apart after software updates. This is the second time it’s happened to me in the last year. I may not replace it at all as I don’t use it as much as I once did but if I do it sure as shit won’t be with another fitbit product. Support is terrible and they’re clearly up to no good.

  Garmin makes a tracker very similar to the one I was using from fitbit, as well as a wide range of smartwatches. I hear they are good quality so that’s likely what I’ll get if I decide to replace it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Dune 2’: How Artisans Pulled off Shooting the Arena Fight Scene With Infrared Technology⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That was an interesting scene. I wouldn’t have guessed it was filmed in IR but it did a really good job of portraying the Harkonnens as barbaric and otherworldly from a cultural perspective. It was pretty unsettling to watch for reasons that are difficult to articulate.

  Overall the movie was fantastic. If not for a couple other scenes this IR bit likely would have been my favorite part.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I want to talk in an American accent but how can I transition into it slowly for people who know me without them noticing a sudden change?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They might notice, but does it really matter if they do? It’s nice of you to think of how your actions impact other people but in this case it seems like you’re focusing too much on that aspect of it. If you want to speak with an American accent then you should do it.

  I really don’t think anyone will make more than a passing comment about it. You can say “I’m working on speaking more clearly” or something like that. If people don’t accept that answer then that is their problem to deal with.
