Healthy optimism
Protests are very good at causing civil unrest, damaging public property, making other peoples days worse, and swaying their view further away from your cause
If any of those are your goal, they can be quite effective
To increase humanities control over its environment. The form that takes is a secondary concern
Let’s be real here, it’s the second one
For all intents and purposes it was free word
I haven’t really used word in over half a decade since TeX beats it in every conceivable way.
Wordpad was useful in the sparse few cases where I was forced to open a .doc or .docx and couldn’t be arsed to upload the file to Google docs
I guess it will be missed for that
Not everything that isn’t ublock is automatically bad. Especially if you just want an adblocker and not also all the other stuff it comes with
I love the irony that people nuke your comment
Yup, calling bs on the article, since a pc is both cheaper and easier than a phone. Besides, if you know how to navigate a window and type into a textbox (both required for YouTube) you know how to write a digital form
This article is made up drama
You mean like how you fully purchased a premium account?
I wonder why there are no laws against eforced, unilateral contract adjustments like this. Especially considering “no ads” was an explicit part of the original purchase
You’re right that I inverted it numerically
Though, that’s a communication thing. White people are a minority worldwide but never referred to as such. I used the standard way to refer to the different races even though that is statistically incorrect in the hope of it being more directly obvious what I meant
He means Apartheid
That one went so far that south Africa is the only country to voluntarily unilateraly give up its nuclear arsenal when a minority risked getting to power
Toomba 2: The evil swine return is a piece of nostalgia I can never share
Coin
Look, the glasses are nice and all, but they don’t give you a 50% change to win the lottery and randomly realise a way to prove/disprove the Riemann hypothesis every two weeks
I wonder how this works with elections. In my country, the votes are counted within 12 hours. When I’m voting on a party, I am attempting to make said party the largest one. Does the coin just give me a 50% chance to unilaterally decide my government every election cycle?
Edit: oh shit, it’s not 50% chance, but 100% after it came into effect once. The first time it lands on heads, try to guess the next flip’s outcome by guessing it would be heads. Since the coin is in effect, this guess is correct, even though the next coin will only be flipped in two weeks
In other words, the coin just gives you reality warping for halve a day every two weeks
I feel the opposite. Still all but one opinion gets drowned out. It’s just that now the opinion that survives is the one that screams the loudest rather than the mainstream one
I would consider that a downside tbh
There is nothing childish about snow. Especially since in some parts of the world, we’re the last generation that gets to enjoy it at all
Holding spacebar pressed used to play the video at half speed, due to pausing and unpausing extremely quickly
Now it plays the video at double speed, meaning that I have to set playback speed manually when I want to watch in slow motion
I can see this being preferable in the long run, but damn if it isn’t annoying in the present
Pretty sure the joke is aimed at cubesats
