You know, if you people wanna ditch the Kingdom and join the club, I don't think it's too late.

Yeah, it's probably terrifying at first.

I'm sure they'd get used to it though, almost any kind of riding/driving a vehicle is going against all your preservation instincts when it's the first time you do it.

Okay, that looks pretty cool.

YouTube pushes whatever format feels popular to them at the time, like when they started giving absurd weight to shorts.

Even content creators that pretty much only do long, focussed videos started to hack useless bits of them to put in shorts as an aside, just because the algorithm would make their channel basically invisible without a few of them.

And then of course YouTube will prioritize those in all feeds, even if you're watching on a fucking TV app.

If youtube starts the same kind of shit with vertical streaming, you can be sure they're going to pop everywhere, no matter how fitting the format is.

Forgetting about the intrusion of shitty LLMs everywhere for a while... Who the fuck even uses notepad for something they would need redacted?

It's not a actual writing tool, it's a basic text file editor.

Not only nobody needs to do that trip that fast, but we're not in the early 00's anymore, and there has never been as many tools to communicate and collaborate remotely. So I'd expect a non-negligible part of these don't even need to do the trip anymore if they want to save money and time.

Probably why Tony Stark's father is named Howard, too.

I'm usually rather passionate about space exploration and stuff, but we don't need to send people to Mars that bad.

What do you find not tolerable in standard Firefox and what did this browser do that made it better?

I know firefox is rather memory heavy, but despite that it's still my go-to browser, both for desktop and mobile.

Which are not, by far, most people. I am not sure why you're bringing the subject of banks. Of course they're shitty and mostly run by bastards. Okay.

But cryptomoney people are not banks, or groups of individuals. They're individuals. And they're in it because of the "get rich quick" scheme and push others to get into the pyramid's lower levels, because that's how they might get richer. So they're either bastards or being conned, or probably both.

Proof of work is a power/hardware catastrophe, and proof of stake is entrusting power to the already rich again. Crypto is not a new economy model, it's a bad subset of the old one with fancy fake ideals.

Last time I checked, most individuals are not, in fact, banks.

For all the talks about freedom and "decentralised" utopia the crypto bro cults spew all the time, they are really just obsessed with making absurd amounts of money fast. Their only motivation is greed.

Can't say I'm surprised some regard Dubai as a goal. They only see the rich man's club, they don't care about how the sausage is made.
