<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@film_girl" class="u-url mention">@<span>film_girl</span></a></span> that shithead deserves nothing.</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@robnee" class="u-url mention">@<span>robnee</span></a></span> exactly! Thanks, Rob! If I’d shared to the Bloomberg story of how he was ousted (original to Bloomberg), I might have included a paywall note. But in this case it was just the first primary source that alerted me to the news!</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@film_girl" class="u-url mention">@<span>film_girl</span></a></span> Everything Christina is trying to convey is in the headline. No need to waste time complaining about Bloomberg's annoying paywall. If there is something that Gelsinger was missing then let's discuss that but otherwise I think "RIP" is a fair reaction. The Intel board is flailing.</p>
<p>What I'm listening to today: "16521235326544312165352", 121534312</p><p>Hello, is this thing on? Dialtone for a disconnected universe. Howls and hums, breath on the microphone, heartbeat signal for a deep space probe, elevator music ambient for the descent into a black hole. A thought that flees from you just as it's starting to make sense.</p><p>Video accompaniment is the kind of greebly feedback art I love and YouTube compression hates.</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=695uky0yYLU" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">youtube.com/watch?v=695uky0yYLU</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>

Democracy dies if you don’t give us money. All the news that’s fit to hide from the poor.</p>
<p>I just want to go back to celebrating the wonderful Enron.com. My favorite scam in the history of scams. Even in parody, it’s my favorite.</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://bladerunner.social/@stevelord" class="u-url mention">@<span>stevelord</span></a></span> I mean I’ve only been here for 5 years but sure. Please tell me about the vibe.</p>

I have lots of friends who make their livings largely or entirely because the publications they work for (or in some cases, own), operate on a paywall. I understand paywall frustration. I too get annoyed, and I’m a person who pays thousands of dollars a year for various news sources. But there is always a cost and increasingly, that cost is a paywall. </p><p>Regardless, the proper response is either to Google a different link or politely ask for a PDF.</p>
