Nicer UI. Not exactly sure how the whole thing works, I think you are somehow able to enable/disable certain add-ons and from what I can gather extendes has a few more. Tl;dr: It’s better, consider giving it a try.

Ridiculously dumb take
Dev is actually going pretty well. What they have achieved is pretty amazing.
But they are going to say the game is in ‘alpha’ as long as they can, because it means they can keep collecting “pledges” instead of “paid content”.
I bet that has some tax purposes.
I mean, what’s the context here? I doubt doctors are sterilizing people because of some evil agenda. If she was already undergoing explorative abdominal surgery, I’d wager they found a pathology that requires her reproductive organs to be removed.
If they didn’t get her consent during the preoperative information, then that’s malpractice and a part I don’t understand. However, I’d assume the surgeons wanted to spare her from having to undergo sedation and surgery again at a later point in time, just to get her consent.
Definitely a you-problem. There don’t exist a dog too stupid to learn to sit on command. Them barking to wake you up continues to happen, because you allowed it to work in the first place.
If a dog barks and sees you raise… well of course they’ll continue that behaviour in the future, if it’s successful.
It’s not an exploitation for monetary gain, it’s an exchange of services. Do you think those massive servers they got are running for free? Aside from hardware, facilities and electricity, they have to pay programmers, accounting, management, cleaning services, etc. etc.
People have to get over the fact, that this is how the world works - and also the only way the world as we know it can work.
If they aren’t above illegaly selling your data, then aren’t above illegaly collecting your data, even if you ticked a little “I do not consent” box. I fail to see, how this change can be anything but positive.
Targeted ads has become such a boogey man, that you all can no longer view these things rationally. There is nothing wrong with companies wanted to get their products advertized to the most likely customers and there is nothing inherently wrong with a platform using your activity to see what ads you are most likely interested in.
The potential issue with it, is your personal data leaking everywhere and being assimilated by questionable companies who could create a psychological profile of you, that knows you better than you know yourself.
If they truely only let companies target you, by presenting them an internally grouped collective of likely customers in which you happen to be included, then there is absolutely nothing wrong with this. Same goes for the newest change in how chrome manages ads.
Not really. Fixing systemic problems is not up to the individual. I’m paying for music, which i already only due to the convenience.
Yep, absolutely. My family still has spotify and netflix subscriptions, but i already canceled prime before the previous price hike. I’d have already canceled netflix if it was my decision and the only service i still see value in is spotify.
Same. My parents told me not to look straight into the sun, i saw it as a challenge.
You are not connected to a grid, by having electrodes measure potential differences in your brain. If the chip (outside of your brain) were to malfunction, then the interface would simply no longer work. big deal. you replace it.
Again, wtf do you think a brain inplant is?
Not how a brain implant works.
If I could have direct interface to my devices (write text by thinking it, control video game characters,…) I would get one in a heartbeat.
Sadly it’ll be a while until the tech comes that far and it’ll have strictly medical usecases for quite some time.
Tbh, at this point there’s no reason in them disabling ad blockers. If you haven’t gotten used to this insane amount of ads by experiencing the slow, uphill creep, having to go from seeing no ads to suddenly this, is impossible. I couldn’t watch youtube videos in the current state of ads, so I’d just have one less vice.
I had already stopped once, when youtube vanced went offline (until i found revanced) and I will do it again
Because there is no conscious force guiding it
I remember back in the old 9gag days, people would just accept a joking misspell, without getting triggered over it.
This is not the fault of capitalism, this is lobbying and corruption and no other system would be able to effectively abolish this either.
The cause is human nature and the only things that can prevent this, are better systemic structuring, more decision-making-redundancy and independend inspection.
Communism for example would have the exact same issues. Granted: not in its utopic form, but as we have seen with all the examples so far, such a system can not succeed, because you still have people at the top of the ladder, who will inevitably fall for the same reasons.
Most satanists are actually atheists (they don’t believe god or satan exist), but they do it to have a community that has its own traditions and for the lulz.
You obviously don’t know what a bidet is
I think hospital bombings on both sides must always be taken with a grain of salt… because if you are in a war and are highly unethical; where is the best place to operate a military base from, if you want to protect it from bombings?
