I don't even know what he has said.

I was going to say liquidate my investments but to be honest I'm not sure I could even spend all the money in my bank account in 31 days. I don't even know what to buy. Beef Jerky and RedBull? I'd probably get my hands on some psychedelics though, maybe even hard drugs. One thing I would do is much more urban offroading with my truck since I no longer need to be worried about my license - or the truck. I'd probably go have a thai massage with a happy ending and try gay sex too because why not.

All in all I don't think I'd be living that much differently. I already know I'm going to die. I just don't know when.

I'd love my fatbike to have both, belt drive and a gearbox. I barely even bother to adjust the derailleur anymore since I'm constantly banging it everywhere anyway. Gearbox would also give more clearance for 6 inch tire on the rear. Some innovation on the brakes section would be in place too since disc brakes don't seem to like water and mud but mine are getting plenty of both.

You don’t offer your services and prices easily

That’s a strange assumption. My pricing and services are listed on the flyer they likely first heard about me from, as well as on my website. You can also just call, email, or text and ask.

If you have a job for me but don’t want to "waste your time" by reaching out, I’m not too concerned about losing you as a customer. Virtually all of my previous clients seem to appreciate not just a job well done, but the one-on-one human connection as well. In fact, some of them seem to just want someone to talk to - the work itself feels almost secondary.

That's quite the number of assumptions you made there

Reddit is more diverse. The same kind of cynicism exists there too but it's dilluted by all the other content so it's easier to ignore. Here that is less the case as majority of the content is news articles - granted that I haven't been to reddit for over a year so I don't know what it's like today.

Agreed. This is the most cynical corner of the internet I've ever been to, yet here I'm.

There's plenty of censorship here though. Some instances are worse than others but even on a community basis, your average moderator is just some random dude who is free to remove your posts/comments and ban you just because they don't like something you said and there's not really anything you can do about it.

Fediverse as a technology yes but the userbase here does the opposite. By definition someone commenting on a message board is not a normal person because normal people don't do that, but to be commenting on a niche platform like this makes you hyper not-normal, and yes, that applies to me as well and I'm well aware of that.

Wolves don't indiscriminate between invasive and endangered species though.

Not that I as a small bussines owner would expect anyone to use this to call me about my pricing or services but the call would end real quick when I realise I'm talking to an AI. I don't even have anything against AI per se, I talk with LLMs a lot. It's just that if you can be arsed to personally call me then I can't be arsed to serve your needs either - I have more serious customers to cater to.
