Why is it an investment though? What's the expected return? How does that compare to other options?

Thanks for sharing, I've been thinking about this too. But I've also mulling over whether spending my time looking at _any_ endless algorithm suggestions is what I personally need. You know, happiness and meaning and all of that.

It works when you curate it. I removed lots of "friends" and family. Joined hobby groups, and now it's a good source of relevant events for me.

I've considered running my own IA ( https://github.com/internetarchive/heritrix3 ), which only archives my chrome history, which is stored in a local sqlite db. I haven't had the time to figure out the details

And neither does regulation preventing purchasing porn either. But be explicit about what’s ok and what’s not if you’re going to regulate it. Otherwise companies decide for themselves and we end up here.

Really? You think a company that likes money says "You know what, we don't need to make any more.". Given that they like money, they're probably afraid of losing money from lawsuits due to breaking regulation.

I don't believe that. These companies want to make money and would love to make more. They also don't want to lose money, so they find ways to decrease risk. Their lawyers probably tell them what's risky and draw the line the

My opinion is that people who start in simulator have a hard time adjusting to flying visually (the fundamentals). The sim forces you to look at your instruments which is a bad habit to break. But something constructive: Consider enrolling

So you're saying supply isn't meeting demand. Why isn't supply meeting demand? What's preventing buildings from building more and faster?

He can buy one of those other competitors used by right-wing folks. Hell, if "free speech" is so important to him and to everyone else he wants to rescue he can just tweet to use those other platforms. It's certainly cheaper.
