I think Vsauce is a lot more grifty than he looks. If you look at the really early videos they were very different and he changed his content wildly in order to find something that makes the most money with the least work. The science education happened to be profitable but as the Meta started favouring more than 10+ min and science vids became mini documentaries he just dropped off and started reviewing science toys and do compilation videos. Right now he is doing a lot of shorts because they are being pushed by the algorithm.

You know what is worse? Depressed bed blobs pretending that they are introverts and normalizing antisocial behaviour. Healthy introverts have and regularly meets friends. They just don’t do it as often and in the same way as extroverts. I know these things because I went to therapy instead of trying to normalize my insecurities on the internet.

Is fire an invention? I feel like it is something that happens to us wether we like it or not.

There is also no way to just be friends. The friendly option are also the fuck options so if approval gets too high you need to actively be an asshole to them.

Yeah, I particularly like the part in lord of the rings where Gandalf randomly tries to fuck Frodo because there was a small approve notification earlier when Frodo helped him open the door to moria.

I never thought of him being immune to Sauron as him being powerful. He is just like the the hobbits but to its fullest. Bombadil is perfectly content with his own existence and there is nothing for the ring to tempt him with.

Arguably that would make it even more effective.

That exists, it’s called a face tattoo.

Natural resources it the prime example. I think all natural resources should exclusively be under democratic control and all profits from the sale of naturals resources goes exclusively to the government. Developed land like private housing gets complicated fast but ideally things should work like things work now but the government fulfills the functions of a landlord.

Popular vote is what the most number of people want. The idea that popular vote is bad is anti-democratic.

Nobody should be allowed to own land. You can build a building and that building is yours because you built it but you can’t make land and the only reason you own it is because someone in the past used violence to take it.

I think the gist of it is that it alters the heart rhythm rather than starting and stopping it.

I don’t think we should take our lessons from a third world country.

Did we finally discover slood?

Both the democratic and republican party are several smaller parties tied together into two disgusting rat king. If one of them disappear today there will be an instant split of the surviving party into two new rat kings. The collapse isn’t what they fear. They fear that the Overton window would move left.

Community points isn’t supposed to be valuable. This is about making people start a vault/wallet and engage in crypto in a way that is fun and non threatening. They already tried it with the avatars but I doubt it got a whole lot of traction. At some point the real crypto currency will appear and suddenly reddit will have a platform with a couple of millions users that already has a wallet set up and ready. That will make reddit one of the biggest crypto platforms on the internet.

This is also what the API thing was about. Third party apps didnt/couldn’t include the vault on their apps so a lot of user didn’t even know the vault existed until now.

He caused the riot. If he didn’t cause the riot and has no responsibility then we are in some weird Saw movie logic where Jigsaw technically didn’t kill anyone because he only set up the circumstances and the people killed themselves. If you are older and twelve you should be able to sort these things out.

It is normal for features to be delayed in their launch. This feature has already been launched. I know it has been launched because for two days every rightoid grifter bragged about the money that was paid out in order to boost subscriptions for Elon. This is a case of not paying your bills. That is not normal, that is usually a Herald for bankruptcy.

He doesn’t want to and it would be really bad for him to involve his personal wealth in the company. They need to be separate when twitter goes bankrupt. It is also very unclear what his actual wealth is.
