They made sure he’s the only other viable candidate. I’m sick of the complete lack of actual choice.

You think the left could somehow do worse than biden. That’s really all that one needs to know about you. Keep excusing your BS with claims that I’m not reading your posts right. Try writing a post that isn’t a thinly-veiled bashing of the left.
You suspect that progressives could possibly do worse than your decrepit neoliberal king. How is that an incorrect reading of your post?
Of course you view the left with suspicion. All you do is bash the left.
It’s not like democrats just happened to have this happen to them, they actively pushed for this in 2020 when they told all the candidates they could to drop and support Biden while paying for a PAC to keep Warren in the race to split votes with Sanders. They worked harder to fight Sanders than they did to fight Trump. Then democrats made sure to make the 2024 primary as one-tracked as possible, in the name of “unity”. The democrats made their bed and they were content with lying in it until Biden shat in it and they woke up from their little bubble. It’s not like Biden was doing amazing before this, but his debate performance was so bad, even democrats steeped in the kool-aid could see how decrepit their beloved candidate is.
The scary part is that we’re so far deep in this shit that I don’t know if it’s even possible to back out. It’s an oncoming train collision which had its course set back in 2020 (or perhaps even 2016) that many could see coming but democrats chose to ignore because they place upholding the status quo for their donors as the highest priority.
Legally the party can do whatever they want: https://observer.com/2017/08/court-admits-dnc-and-debbie-wasserman-schulz-rigged-primaries-against-sanders/
The consequence of biden positioning himself as “the guy to beat trump”.
This counts as biden doing something about the genocide?
This isn’t software that is exclusive to EVs.
Copyright is an arbitrary concept. If a country decides to ignore it, then they can do what they want with a publicly-visible resource.
Reducing the amount of data you need to send is an obvious factor for a service that sends a lot of data. Not much of a bet at all.
Now imagine if that bitcoin went down 50% in the same time frame.
What really started the ad war was the endless drive for greater profits. Let’s say I accept youtube’s terms and sign up for premium. Sooner or later they will introduce ads into premium as well. We’ve seen this process happen with many other services before. I didn’t start using an ad blocker until quite a bit after pop-ups were rampant and malware-infested ads became an issue. There’s a point where it becomes too much and people will seek out alternatives. An entire generation grew up with convenient streaming services and they’re generally less knowledgeable about piracy than the generation before them. That will likely change as those streaming services continue to jack up prices while making the experience worse all in the name of profit.
Again, there is an endless supply of entertainment these days. If companies think they can endlessly jack up prices and/or worsen the experience, they’re contending with practically infinite supply, the consequences of which are obvious in when it comes to supply vs demand.
There’s always Linux.
I specified intrusive ads. They could have non-intrusive ads, like a little banner or something. Instead they put up multiple video ads before and during videos. No thanks.
I’d rather not use youtube than give them money for it or even sit through their intrusive ads. There are infinite ways to entertain myself.
Supposedly AI is going to take all the jobs and yet it still can’t do this task which it seems perfect for. Sure, eventually AI will get good enough to do it in the future, but there is just way too much hype given the reality of the current situation. This is a job that fast food workers are already required to do in addition to other duties, so it’s not like it’s labor saving from the company’s perspective either.
Most, if not all, of these books talking about how to get rich are how the authors get rich in the first place. While there may be some good advice in them, the real way to get rich is to sell others on the idea that they could be rich if they buy your products/services.
The US would hate having to use their military.
What else would I stroke while thinking? 🤔
