Middle term? The phasing out of personal computers, and moving toward a system of servers/terminals where noone owns software.
You’ll rent computing power or storage space, you’ll only pay for the interface.

I have absolutely no idea, you could try asking the devs or look into webtorrent.
Peertube uses bittorrent, the viewers share the video among themselves to relieve server load.
I don’t know how well it works, since there’s never enough people around to see it in action.
I think there’s a moral issue in giving youtube money.
Reducing economical disparities will solve the so-called “racial” inequalities.
Affordable education, housing and care for all don’t necessitate discrimination, even positive.
When an university degree costs hundreds of thousands, the problem isn’t the ethnic makeup of the happy few who can afford it, it’s scarcity itself.
European state manage to fund a higher education for pretty much all of those that care to try it, it is not an impossible dream.
edit: to clarify, I don’t think ending affirmative action before making any general progress is a good idea or will do any good.
just to keep eyes on the prize and be aware of diversion tactics.
Feels like a spin to me to be honest.
They used to say the same things about lead before transitioning to the current “unsafe at any dosage” view.
Labeling everyday products as carcinogenic would work to muddy the waters after a few damaging papers on industry important products. I remember the ‘red meat is cancer’ craze breaking out suspiciously close to the first studies linking glyphosate to cancer.
My euristic will be to take popular belief into account. I see it as emergent intelligence by trial and error, not merely nonsense.
You do you of course.
In my mind, the main reason to avoid edulcorants (including stevia and acesulfame), is that they taste like shit.
Yesteryear’s conspiracies are today’s common truth. Getting slowly used to that one.
I say allow it if it can be opted out. Having a ‘repost’ or ‘bot’ tag, and a filter would solve it for me.
But it might be a lot of work to implement.
Harmful. It’s noise pollution. It dilutes human contribution and makes it harder to engage with other people.
Trying to find some that haven’t been talked about yet:
Echo. It’s a fantastic experimental infiltration game with an AI that adapts to your way of playing. The setup is very impressive.
Pathologic: one of the three playable characters (the Changeling). It’s a bizarre russian game, with an unique world, and messy gameplay. Can’t recommend it enough.
Va11 Hall-A: chill bartending game in a cyberpunk setup.
The Blackwell series: comfy, kind of amateurish point and clicks by Wadjet Eye. I like them very much.
Transistor: weirdest game by Supergiant. You play as a redhead with a talking sword. I don’t remember much about it except that it was good.
The Fall: (pushing it a little bit, since the protagonist is an AI, but I’ve always seen here as female.) Criminally underrated puzzle games, disguised as metroidvanias.
Eliza (by Zachtronics): the only visual novel I enjoyed. It’s hard to explain, it’s about AI, burnout, whether tech dehumanizes people, and solitaire.
Hedon Duology: for something completely different, it’s a slightly kinky retroshooter, with amazon Orcs fighting demons.
It may sound a bit dumb, but it’s excellent. Huge levels, interesting worldbuilding, and a gameplay based on exploration, puzzles as well as shooting.
There’s probably a ton more, but that’s all I can think about at the moment.
Former CEO at Online Manipulation warns us about online manipulation. Hm.
This looks amazing. Almost better than the original in some ways.
But playing Doom in 1:1 aspect ratio is masochism.
I’m still angry about it.
Around 26, it’s biological adulthood.
Baseless slander.
Missing the wad
Best possible use of a 3D printer
I don’t see a scenario where google or the likes would be allowed to fail. So moot point.
Hypothetically it would open a window for open source services to sneak in.
