That is my point. What isn’t necessarily obvious, though, is that the scrapable data is more comprehensive than what could be scraped on traditional platforms

Remember, if Meta can collect your data this way, any bad actor or government can as well.

He probably got a good sentence considering he never stepped foot in a US prison

Please do Chrome first, though. At least Edge has introduced solid features, whereas Google has a history of limiting other browsers on its websites to promote Chrome.

The US government isn’t gonna do anything like this unless it causes a huge fuss. The agencies responsible don’t get enough funding to properly regulate the stuff they’re supposed to, and they have to prioritize as a result.

I’m sure companies know this very well. Our rights as consumers have been slowly decaying for years, and we haven’t seen much government action until recently.

Why not make a better UI after ironing out the bugs?

The way I see it isn’t that stereotypes are inherently awful, it’s that they have various levels of impact. Racism against African Americans is considered more heavily because they have such a long history of oppression that not many other groups have had. Most other groups didn’t meet fierce resistance to obtaining basic rights for as long as they did

In most US states, you can be fired for any reason that isn’t explicitly illegal.

Disagree in some cases. A good chunk of YouTubers make good use of their “no new effort” earnings by reinvesting it into their channel. The end result is either better content or more of it

What about the remaining 3%?

Also, to (hopefully) answer your question:

Ignore Finland/Europe for a second and look at North America. The US has many population centers along the coasts and very few in the west inland. People still live there, so they need internet access, but oftentimes there aren’t enough people to justify expanding coverage across such a huge area without subsidizing said coverage with government funds or other customers, so there are bound to be coverage gaps if you don’t have unlimited money to throw at the problem. If you take a look at Canada, you can see how much worse the problem is as they have even more area to cover, and it reflects in the fact that they have some of the highest wireless prices in the world.

Also remember that these are wealthy countries. Plenty of other regions have the same problems with population density and physical size, and they can’t throw money at the problem like we can.

The TL;DR is that these deadzones exist in a ton of places because a lot of low-population areas are physically huge.

1.5 million is not a lot of money when you’re talking about the richest person.

And you want to start with Valve, which is one of the smaller game companies and is one of the few players not guilty of buying up their competition, instead of Sony, Microsoft, other Big Tech players, media conglomerates like Disney, ISPs like Comcast or AT&T, or meat distributors who are price fixing algorithmicly?

Even if the left is overall more tolerant, there’s still plenty of toxicity that alienates people and pushes them rightward.

Any such interface needs to be non-invasive/removable for me to use one.

I don’t know; AFAIK, Reddit successfully argued that they own Wallstreetbets’ trademarks in court. That might void all of these licenses depending on the ToS of the instance being used.

When using the right tools, phones are already incredibly powerful in an educational environment. There’s a reason why Kahoot achieved meme status: it’s because students love it.

It’s scary how this is the way I found out

A baker’s dozen is 13.

Reminds me of Rensenware.
