OMG yes!! I honestly really mostly kinda don't mind ads for media that I value (youtube, spotify, etc) ... however, when it comes down to it, when I get served the same freaking ad over and over and over and over, it just drives me up

I _think_ I'm aware of some of these things you're referring to (raiden network, etc), but I wonder if you could list some of this research ... I'm trying to keep up with the latest developments.

I think "fake accounts" is definitely a problem ... however, don't think it's the true issue. They should take a note from the financial industry, and self-impose more stringent KYC and content regulations for those post

I'll suggest that there's a delicate dance to be had here ... you're right, anyone willing to go through setting up and managing their own server, will probably have "more to say", and dedicate more time and effort

Getting a lot of nostalgia as well ... for most people, social media has 100% replace the "need" for maintaining their own individual blog. They can post their thoughts to facebook well enough, and their friend list (when shared)

Though I use it for the same reason you mention ... I always am paranoid when I have cruise control engaged for very long distances. Have no idea how likely this would be, but the fear that creeps and stays in the back of my head is that I&

This right here ... so many people eat lunch at their desk. I find that I feel so much better when I take a break, both from being inside, and being in front of my computer where my work cannot escape my brain.

Unfortunately, you may be happy with Amazon, but there's loads of examples of where this is going wrong for consumers. From issues with counterfit products (see the post recently about the guy who unknowingly was "charged" wi

Wow ... this is really timely for me, in the context of contemporary movie reviews. I won't mention any specific ones so as to not taint the conversation, but I've found myself disagreeing with movie critics more and more these da

This is a very easy position to take when you're part of the group that can easily become an "automator". I want to be entirely on the side that you describe here, but I simply can't ignore the negative quality of life t

I've often thought that having pets (who will obviously have a shorter lifetime than humans) will help them learn to deal with death. That way, when it inevitably happens to an adult in their life, they will have experience processing

same ... I can't watch movies and tv shows (cop dramas and such) in which a child is victimized. When such an episode comes on, I just get really uncomfortable, and nope out to do something else.

It shouldn't be up to the individual and profit-seeking ISPs to decide that E911 and tele-surgery packets get priority. If there's a QoS concern for something, and it's deemed important enough, this is a perfectly rational pl
