I ALMOST forgot who she was you know @snopescomputers That's exactly the reason politicians and celebs say stupid shit. And stoopids like you regurgitate them like so much bronchial puke. So we dont forget them and they can get paid for saying it on Boob Toob talk shows.

Otherwise they end up living in a van or refrigerator box by the river pimping their worn out gangbanged asses to support a dug/alcohol habit



Framing the Digital: Why Pedagogy Must Come Before Platform


Too often, digital platforms silently shape our teaching practices. From VLE templates to AI-based assessment systems, technology influences pedagogy more than we realise.

This post argues for reversing that logic. Pedagogy must lead the design and use of digital tools, not follow it.

This is the first in a new blog series exploring how educators can reclaim agency in a platform-driven environment.

And exactly as I thought instead of education and simplifying workflows purposes these companies' "AI's" will be used to generate a "better" ads experience for you. Absolutely disgusting.

While they are still available use the Ad Blockers or FreeTube App if you want to see more sane and adequate ytb like it used to be long time ago.

In an example shared by YouTube, a man proposes and the couple shares a kiss. YouTube then recognizes this as a “peak” moment and suggests an ad window immediately following it.

Welcome to dystopia.

A predictable one if you understand that Trade is the Origin of Most Problems. So predictable.... and 0 chances we change anything within the same system...

in reply to Tio

Yeah, those examples make me sick, absolutely inhumane practice (me saying if ever those trading ads companies were humane and not decieving and manipulative 🙄) and it will become worse of course. I agree that it is not going to change in this system because an urge for profits is only growing 😕

I posted this comment on the video itself but will paste it here in case you @Dima see it:

Very well made video Dima!

I did not understand the "solution" part. There was a guy who was planting a crop with all of the other plants, so no herbicides. But how can you harvest that on a big scale? Also how about invasive species when you dont control for that?

Also wouldnt it be better instead of 3D printing that thing for bees, with plastic, to use wood?

Great job overall!

The presence of the cat ruined A Quiet Place: Day One for me. In each dangerous situation all I was thinking was "Where's the cat?" "Is the cat OK?" and I could spare no concern for Cancer Lady et al.

We got our motorhome stuck for the first time! videos.trom.tf/w/bxTbZkK2TYaUY…

But it happened in a super beautiful place, Cerro Masatrigo, and a very nice local man came to our rescue.

I also did a nice little hike called Sendero Fortaleza de Lares to get an even better view of this area in Extremadura (around the middle of Spain).

Getting stuck in the most beautiful place


Masatrigo looks like a volcano, but it is just a beautifully shaped hill with a roundabout around it. It looks so cool from afar, and the entire area is actually super beautiful. But it has been raining in Spain for many weeks and the soil/grass was very wet. We parked in a not so very steep place, but it was enough to get us totally stuck.

Luckily a very nice old man came to our rescue.

I found a very interesting YouTube channel of a homeless English-speaking Japanese man. Why did it interest me? Because I always thought that without electricity and water, etc., without a home in short. A van or an apartment. It's very difficult. This man shows a different kind of life. There are a lot of YouTubers who live in a car or a van or a cabin without electricity, but very few homeless people (by choice. Mentally stable) who have to rely on electrical outlets in cafes and libraries, Public showers and finding a place every night to pitch a tent.

Will have a look. Seems interesting. For me personally I need electricity, water, and at least a tiny home :) - on wheels like we have now.
