  • 2112 does go fucking hard, Temples of Syrinx was one of my all-time favourite songs, and I listened to it for years on a bad audio system without being able to understand the lyrics properly. Once I started hearing them properly, though, it started feeling a bit sus (I’m a big lyrics person) which lead me to find the interview above. I’m glad to hear they’ve changed since then, though.


  • Wrote several books about how the rich are rich because they make society gooder and invent all the things, and the poor workers would be lost without them (therefore libertarian capitalism is the best system). Among other proto-fascist ideologies. If you want a longer form, Angela Collier has a really good video that goes in-depth a bit more, “Billionaires want you to know they could have done Physics” on YouTube or Nebula (Ayn Rand portion starts at around 26:00, but the whole video is pretty good)

    That’s sort of where I’m at right now to be honest. Google has removed or plan to remove basically everything that gave Android an edge over iOS. Meanwhile Apple, for all their flaws, has actually put out some pretty compelling offerings with the iPhone 17 line both hardware- and software-wise, and has made meaningful improvements in the realm of repairability and side-loading, albeit under regulatory pressure. At this point, it’s looking like going to be harder than I’d like to choose between the two when I go to replace my phone in 3-5 years - provided both companies stay on their current trajectories.
