ActivePub every platform has at least one major Intelligence Agency monitor who has to make a weekly report of ongoing. Do people really think 9/11 didn't happen on message boards? A lot of secrets for corporate espionage and government leaks happen on message boards. There are worst things to waste staff time on.

"Lemmy" as an app has to have a file in case it comes up on some security matter - it has to have a definition on a Wiki somewhere!

I think the joke is how a pest exterminator is being called on an extinct species. Play on the mutual concept of extinction.

All the Unity game engine self-destruction choices got to them ;)

 

As a media environment, the context here is to view media as environments and even the shift they make over time.

I added a link to Jung's concept of "persona" to the sidebar of this community: For Jung, "the danger is that [people] become identical with their personas—the professor with his textbook, the tenor with his voice." The result could be "the shallow, brittle, conformist kind of personality which is 'all persona', with its excessive concern for 'what people think'"—an unreflecting state of mind "in which people are utterly unconscious of any distinction between themselves and the world in which they live. They have little or no concept of themselves as beings distinct from what society expects of them."

 

There are many detailed replies in this Beehaw.org posting related to media environments.

/c/mental_influenced community: “Any understanding of social and cultural change is impossible without a knowledge of the way media work as environments.” - Marshall McLuhan

As a media environment, this Beehaw discussion is treating the entire world, the whole #PaleBlueDot as a media environment. How much of the world's news can you consume? Some of the replies talk about their spouse being a filter for even world news information.
