All the things you describe are good and beneficial for society. The problem was that you are preparing for an "impact" in 10 years that is not being predicted by anyone, except doomers and propagandists. You believe that the BBC

"I began to prepare on the community level for the impact in the next 10-20 years" Sorry, I don't think rational debate is possible here. Your beliefs are not based on science or rationality.

That's... one man's opinion and at the absolute extreme end of accepted science. You will find a person willing to have a view on anything if you look hard enough. If you read mainstream publications, then you will gradually form

"the difference between human extinction and the mere collapse of our civilization" Literally nobody is predicting any of those things, except propagandists and doomers. I would urge you to broaden your media intake to more mainst

Same. Samsung as a brand is dead to me. It is their right to update previously purchased TVs to show adverts. It is my right to consider their brand toxic swill.

Rather than disabling all the crypto, why not use a browser that isn't infected with it in the first place?

I suspect it's to do with copyright law. Copyright is extremely strong in Japan and there is a cultural pressure not to do the "wrong thing". Preserving old games etc is legally ambitious and this is often ignored in the west

It's a curate's egg situation. "Only a little bit of our product contains the largest tech scam of the 21st century". Once a small part of your product is infected, the entire product is corrupted.

Reddit is a psychopath corporation. It actively promotes clownish propaganda, misinformation and conflict to make money from clicks. The homepage is thousands of people screaming hate at each other. I can't think of a corporation that

I think Brave has builtin crypto nonsense though? Which is worse than any trackers.

The author Matt Levin really doesn't like "Le Bad Billionaire Man" and posts against him frequently. This piece reads with a clownish amount of bias.

I was puzzled why the premise of the controversial headline was so flimsy, until I noticed halfway down the page that I was being sold a product.

I consider YouTube comments to be an example of "toxic positivity". YouTube are using AI to only show "postive" comments first, but the overall effect is a bizarre cultish "uncanny valley" approximation of how

Interesting, I had not understood that!

This looks incredible but I do notice that all the images are of a similar theme. Specifically there are no human figures.

I don't know what most of those words mean, but I do know that Aave is not being used in any popular sense, beyond people speculating that the price of the token increases. I was hoping someone would provide a link to a "popular a

web3 is being hailed as changing the world. So far all it has done is create countless scams. However I am open to change my mind. Could you provide a single example of a popular and useful project that has been done using the revolutionary

Could you give an example of a successful and useful web3 implementation? Because I look around, and all I see are grifters, scams and pyramid schemes. There must be some examples of something useful and popular that has been built, if it&#

Thanks for actually posting links, although none of them show that "US foreign policy exists to make corporations rich". They are just vague general warnings about concentration of power. The US has a huge and robust left-leaning

Why is Reddit not banned from Google search? Showing Google a different page to a human mobile visitor gets websites blacklisted from the Google search indexes. Are they too big to get banned?

I think there's a reason you NEVER see people on HackerNews admitting to working at Reddit.

old.reddit is will be removed soon, that is inevitable. A bigger storm will come when the API is removed. That is also inevitable when they go public. The API allows third-party apps, which takes away people downloading the official app. Fo

These websites seem to be last updated decades ago, which is prehistoric to most casual browsers. There's no doubt there is great content on the general internet, but these examples I would classify as "legacy".

Most of these are spam. They contain affiliate links to Amazon to buy the product which is being reviewed, therefore the the review cannot be trusted. "Which" looks to be the exception, but that is a paid-for service. It's a

Did you read the article, or even these comments on the article? Nothing supports what you say at all. Of course it's easier just to shout about the billionaire man.

You mention the "Dead Internet Theory" (not heard that phrase before!). I agree: the WWW Internet is dead, that is your problem. No-one visits websites anymore, everyone has moved to the 10 biggest websites and all data is now sil

Almost surreal reading this. The article suggests that energy consumption does not need to be considered because hydro-electicity exists. It's a fantasy that ignores any sense of economy, science and politics.
