you can just feel it in your bones

iirc, in the talk casey in fact does goes on about how he tried to find examples, but couldn't. in the q&a, he was also asked about this further.

> I get it, but the alternative is what? Get model release forms from anyone in a public space every time you turn your video camera on?

i think i would prefer this. i'd rather live in the world where no one can record or photograph you in public than the world where you're streamed or entombed in a vod for life.

it's more specifically ByteDance must divest. The effects that happen because of a divestment by ByteDance, such as TikTok losing access to "the algorithm", are just incidental. The oral arguments for the case are on YouTube and are worth a listen.

If you're worried about getting a colonoscopy, don't be.

I got one last year and it was the best sleep I ever got.

It was two days of the prep stuff you drink to shit your brains out which is a little rough, but I have a bidet, no big deal.

Then you go to the hospital, you dress down into a gown, nurses come in, they put some things on your chest, you get a little cold, they put a nice warm blanket on you, they start an IV, they wheel you into the procedure room, and then you pass out.

You suddenly wake up and I felt like I had an amazing nap and I was incredibly comfortable. Then you have someone drive you home and that's all there is to it.

It was really no big deal.

The only thing that sucks is you pretty much just drink powerade and eat chicken broth during the prep.
