You can dislike something in general and simply point out when a scenario matches what you dislike, as is happening here.

In the US you’re allowed to have pretty much whatever code you want on your computer, obviously excepting binary representations of illegal photo/video content. How do they even enforce it? Or is it just an extra law to throw at someon

This is a completely illogical take. It reminds me of people who think induced demand means “no matter how many roads we build it can only get worse” lol.

Yes, my point all along is that it’s not different at all, so it’s a weird complaint to hear so often when it was relatively few complaining about the cards.

I think it’s probably because so many people invent fake solutions in their head that they think will solve a problem, and just get upset when it turns out to not work in their society.

Because it’s not a very serious comment, and yes, of course it makes future problems less severe. That’s such a weird and impossible-to-defend take? “Well we’ve had this exact problem for decades but now the same problem is instead coming f

Huh? I’m too busy to find the study supporting the point I was making. I think you may have misunderstood? Anyways, maybe if we solve all these issues, things will improve, and I hope it does! Still, I’m with those survey respondents - I re

I don't think this is a very big reason. I'm absolutely convinced people in the US are just used to cars, and like with any new piece of software, it has to be 10x better in some way for people to start using it en masse. Maybe it

Can you elaborate on what this means? Because I’m not sure which alternative you’re suggesting exists to put on a website besides content.

Does it really matter when, previously, the exact same problem existed in the form of Google Cards in your search results? ;)

I wasn't going to respond because this comment is so dense, but I feel like it's valuable to the conversation to point out: wtf do you mean "people"? I've literally never met anyone who shares my view on this.

Yeah, I dunno about you, but I’m not using the same kinds of stuff as billionaires. It will be the same - because of economics. If you think you’ll be just as healthy as long-lived as them, you’re crazy. It’s literally not the case anywhe

Xi Jinping is worse, by orders of magnitude. Death is part of the necessary cycle of biology, and in no way is it bad. It’s certainly SAD, but in no way is it bad. Rotting isn’t this horrible mark on your body, it’s the beauty of nature rec

If you want the world to be run by a 700 year old Xi jinping, if you want your children to suffer under a thousand year rule of monopolistic Bezos, if you want to see Altered Carbon become a reality, then that’s your opinion and you can hol

I wouldn’t call one of the most essential parts of the life process (moving towards the end of your life involuntarily) a disease. It’s actually very disturbing how people seem not to be worried about the growing potential for immortality.

There are lots of instances where a soldier being 5-6 times stronger would be really useful. I don’t think it’ll be a scenario like the starship troopers book , but having one available to a swat team or whatever, could be useful. Still, I

My dad is in his mid-70s now, and still swims 3-5 miles a week in the ocean currents and waves. He’s so active and so healthy, I literally have a hard time imagining what he’ll be like when he’s feeble. 15 years ago, we went for a hike at e

It’s insane how many are some random idiot in their car, filming with a phone, trying to act like they’re having a conversation with you before it completely switches to sales mode and they’re (terribly) reading a script. They don’t even pu

Unfortunately, when that makes up a trillionth of a percent of all ads, it appears to me as though the overall idea is terrible, with a few who got lucky here and there.

If you haven't make shakshuka yet, it's worth a shot. It's one of my favorite places to use lots and lots of feta. It's not normally vegan since it's topped with an egg, but that's easy enough to remove and for

He didn't say it was good, he said it was the best. To counter his point, you would need to provide a sufficient alternative. I'm pointing this out because if there is one, I'd be interested in it as well. For now, I'm j
