    I’ve used ‘KillTheNewsletter’ a lot. And then it hit me. Most email clients have features I want for my feeds (filtering, auto-sorting into folders by keywords, etc.)

    So far, only emacs (forgot extension name) and feedbro (firefox extension) have similar festures to these…

    Hence, I’m yet to try it, but might create an account only for feeds. And then use rss2email (pypi)

    Is anyone else using this tool? I’d love to hear it…

    Propaganda doesn’t imply facism (elimination of opposing, or any other, opinion.)

    Propaganda is monopolistic, and coming from State itself, that we could argue is different.

    But the whole list in the meme has differences. Yet, the parallelism is eerily pointing to outcome similarities…



  • The fact that black goo “eats” other life to “grow” implies that this Engineer on, according to the article, ancient planet Earth wasn’t just planting life. Also, there was almost no lava on Earth so it would be some recent geological time. I can only accept that he was planting human-like Intelligent life, perhaps our species itself. I liked it because it seemed to align with creationist myth and that’s a huge cultural mashup to me.

    Anyway, I tend to overthink…

    There’s another ‘fact’ taken for granted by this article that I can’t quite follow. They say the Engineer was acting on its own and this was a negative behavior in their species, a bit of a paria. What sustains such claim?

    PS. I only saw Aliens (1986) and Prometheus. Not a fan of horror, but SciFi.
