@waitworry @fabriziob @me @pluralistic There is debate in Spanish because there exists the verb "enmierdar", but that has a sense of adding shit to something, while some (as myself) consider that "mierdificación" would be more appropriate, since the process of enshitification is not just putting shit into the product, but turning the product itself into shit.

@internic @aubreyjones @pluralistic OTOH, he probably has written only two books in the last thirty years and he only posts every other month. 🤭🤭🤭

@fanta @erizocosmico All of this has happened before and all of this will happen again: https://www.elespanol.com/reportajes/20180126/txumari-alfaro-recomienda-orina-desayunar/280241995_2.html

Perdón por el chiste gordófobo.

@lkundrak If it consoles you a bit. I am a biologist and I haven't touched R in six years, nor Java in 14.

But these days I mostly toot about non-biology stuff. :welp:

@orci Hmmmnah, but tell her you're offended she didn't share.

@CorioPsicologia @camilo ¿Khé?

@euklidiadas Probablemente sean las "manías eufóricas".

I am watching a video on a video game publisher titled "the Neo-Victorian, Neo-Nazi, Lesbian BDSM Cult that made Video Games".

TIL there are two bands named exactly "In Loving Memory", one from Iowa and one from Bilbao, Spain, and both have a bandcamp site, but with different urls. Let that be a lesson to make a web search for your ideas before committing to them.

Cory Doctorow's article about the guy who shot the United Healthcare CEO and its connections to his story, 'Radicalized', has this paragraph:

@cstross Whenever someone (usually Cory, yes), writes a book in this style with "ideas", I remember the age of the bio-warfare thriller novel in the 90's and then I see our latest pandemic and I can't escape how those authors took themselves really seriously and didn't get in their fiction the "clown factor" or the "Cohen brothers factor" of people being also unpredictably stupid and plans going awry because humans gonna human.
