@miljko.org 4. Micro‘s crossposting to BlueSky can’t correctly post a numbered list!

@isaacgreene Yep. Yet somehow 12-13 years ago my wife and I managed with mostly snaps. Either our night vision and dexterity were better back then or we selected only the easier ones to do. Probably both!

@JohnBrady Thank you! I am not that old, but old enough to remember when being openly in pursuit of wealth and fame carried some stigma. Or am I imagining things?

@jtr Oooh, I knew nothing about Wizard’s Chest but I see now that the family will be making a visit or ten after we settle in :)

@manton You love to see it! If only it wasn’t our tax money paying for that scaffolding.

@lukemperez Oh, great stuff, thank you for the pointer. Aged all too well.

@tinyroofnail Thanks! It absolutely does not need to be this way, and there is already pushback forming especially in the “elite” institutions. But the majority is being squeezed directly or indirectly by private equity so they see reverse-centaurization as an escape. Out of the frying pan and into the fire.

@JohnPhilpin @manton Lovely, thank you both! TIL

@miljko And by “row” I meant “roll”. How do you edit replies, again, @manton?

@manton Love this. Doctorow has been on a row roll ever since Enshittification as the explainer of our time.
