I can’t comment there anymore. However, now and then I check posts/comments that seem interesting to read but perhaps the subreddits I check are different than yours. Also… the GenZ influence is staggering. I miss the old internet where people just developed a thick skin and still engaged. But then, I am old.

I have never used Linked In for getting a job. I am an RN. I will apply at the company/hospital websites… basically whistle and they call me.

I think it depends on what services your bank offers. My bank offers Zelle transactions rather than handing out your checking account number.

I micro-invest in companies I am familiar in working with at my job. Mostly bio-tech/healtcare/pharm. I have a 403B that is invested in index funds and bonds that is more serious savings. The Robinhood account is more like… a shoe closet. I buy the shoes I like and rarely sell them unless they, well give me a bad experience in real life (looking at your Reddit, Amazon, and Meta). After Trump was elected… I expanded my horizons to European ETFs and Chinese car companies.

I stopped using Paypal a few years ago. But I had to through it to cancel any subs and recurring payments very carefully. I never had them freeze my account/money but I had friends that happened to related to Ebay transactions. Those instances soured me on selling on Ebay as well.

I don’t understand how this can be predicated on an “emergency” of fentanyl being transported over the border when he is actively pardoning domestically incarcerated cartel members and escorting their families over the border and handing them green cards (for a $$$$ price).

We have all been “convinced” to carry tracking devices with us everywhere we go. Way cheaper than a brain implant.

The CRISPR technology is more advanced than brain implants.

Like “Unauthorized Toast”… with all the DRM laws, we could get arrested and charged with a felony for trying to repair ourselves.

Not “The Matrix” – we will just serve as batteries for someone’s AI or Crypto farm while having/living in lucid dreams?

I am siding with the zombies in that apocalypse.

Technology and social media are entirely under regulated with basically no privacy restrictions. Look what DOGE has done to the entire American Federal agencies… “Read-Only”-- As If. They just pirated all our information.

Like everything else, it will be come enshittified and we will be living in the Johnny Mneumonic world.

The billionaires today have an opportunity to eliminate world hunger yet they don’t. Instead, they fly rocketships, sail on giant yachts and buy island compounds or towns in Texas. So yeah, No one at that RB club is going to win a Nobel Peace Prize. They all suck.

I wonder how often you have to back up in case you need a reboot.
