re: extortion, libertarians 

Around ~15 years ago, I heard a story on the radio about how some libertarians were pushing for blackmail and extortion to be decriminalized, and opponents pointed out that businesses would take advantage of this in order to threaten money out of people.

And they were right! This is exactly what Charter Spectrum is doing! And they're not the only business who tries to pull this crap. Usually, such businesses wind up on the wrong side of the law.

@pup_hime What I'm imagining is one or more jerks exploiting this to get rid of all the coworkers that they dislike

swearing, ISP extortion 

Charter Spectrum is running a "marketing campaign" where they are basically threatening former subscribers with being reported to debt collection if they do not re-subscribe.

This is basically extortion. So, fuck Charter, and fuck the shitheads who thought this was a good idea.

No random youtuber, a place cannot be arid and humid at the same time >,<

@tsunderdog Would probably start with the Just Keef Edition romhack of Super Mario World. I had streamed with it previously, but because I didn't know to enable a setting, the stream recording wasn't saved

Sorta thinking about returning to streaming. Might stream with snes romhacks 🤔
