   Turning search history off on youtube about a year ago has been one of my best personal "digital life upgrades" in a while.

   I'm genuinely interested in some concrete examples of "changing peoples vocabulary." I'm not really in the loop, and I think I do a decent job of avoiding echo chambers.

   I would replace your number 5 with "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" or "MacBeth" or "Calvin & Hobbes" or maybe even Natsume's "I am a Cat." Also fun fictional books with impressive pro

   Though such toxic workplace culture still exists, it has changed significantly over the past two decades. The decline in population is a complex issue, and "time expected at work" is one of many factors contributing to it.

   In the early 2000s, when everyone had a phone but no smart phones, we had this "thing" at the college bar: Sitting around the table with some beers and friends, everyone put their phones in the center of the table. First one to to

   I read the "Are we sure this is correct?" as sarcasm.

    For a second I thought you were talking about real life, and "often rear-ending red cards" seemed like a very serious problem.

    I was making a silly joke imagining that the richer one is, the smaller their voting power is. Thus things might have a chance that otherwise would have a hard time passing legislation simply because they are restrictive for the upper class

    Maybe we could have a system in which your vote gets less power, the more money you have. Based on your tax return or something?

    Maybe you get a maximum based on your tax return or something?

    No. Don't make it different per person. Make it a blanket "maximum." Sure, one could just have multiple apps or accounts with multiple companies... Either way would be hard to regulate. If we truly believe that sports betting

    It's kinda bad for society if a bunch of, let's say, middle class men become economically lower-class men while the upper-class owners of such gambling establishments rake it in. We as a society should get to decide what "fre

    I like when you "select all" and it selects every single word on the entire page, instead of just the obvious section which one would want.

    This is how to "copy" text from locked google sheets, too.

    Line is cool. Long press copies the entire message, but ALSO pops up a little menu with "select text to copy" among other options.

    Music lyrics sites used to all do this. You'd copy/paste the lyrics, and every other line was the website name or something. Maybe because it was easy to scrape the text and make your own lyrics website or something? I also think

    Zoom is the exact same. So frustrating, especially when dealing with multiple languages.

    There are often button which do important things, I want to double check the meaning of before clicking them. Selecting the text to copy/paste into a translator is absolutely beneficial. And in Japan, the general layout of the "Go

    I'd go as far to guess that the tech-literate people (who would be both less susceptible to clicking on enshitified links and more likely to report or discuss them) have, somewhere in their tracked-data-portfolio, a "don't se

    Seth (famously from Berm Beak formerly Seth's Bike Hacks on youtube) had similar thoughts about bicycles, and published a book quite recently. It includes bicycles with correct details and terminology. https://cognativemtb.c

    I'm not trying to be gatekeepy or anything, but in 2009 (not so long ago), I did an "ultralight" 40-day on-and-off-road motorcycle trip without any electronics. A few years before that, I did a 10 week "backpacker withou

    I fully agree with your point; and I have also been to Dōgo Onsen. I would go a step further and say this: even if a piece of entertainment (or history) is based specifically on "something," and you enjoyed that entertainment, it

    It is a terrible mystery why search and filtering are so utterly bad in the app store.
