The first time I heard the “every other” theory I was sceptical but it has held true for a very long time now.

They might do an 8.1 and mess with some features (remember when they had to bring back the tool bar)? But another release is likely needed to fix some of the Win 11 performance and bloat issues now.

They’ve cut too deep, for some good reasons, but at the cost of making everything slow.

Real shame as monkey dust was one of the darkest comedies I’ve seen and had some great characters.

I still shout “Save me Barry!” from time to time.

Pah! I think you’ll find we’re tired of listening to experts.

Awesome, thanks OP!

Source to explain? I’m lost :)

I wish there was a Pixel with an SD card slot. That is the main reason I’m still, grudgingly, on Samsung.

I’ve been giving this some thought and the only line I can see is banning the calls for violence against a individual or protected group.

I think anything more or less restrictive causes trouble.

Example points:

• Cannot discuss declaring war (voilence) on another country.
• Can never lie or can not cause harm = can not tell a joke.
• Cannot ban misinformation = who decides? In the 1960 being gay was illegal, should the gay right movement have been banned as misinformation?

Societies grow by challenging norms.

I think our weird society can be fixed by teaching critical thinking in schools and introspection. However, philosophers have been saying similar things for at least 2000 years and it hasn’t caught on yet.

Happy to discuss the above as I’d like to work the angles for a better line, if we think there is one.

Can you give us an example of point 1 with regards to hate speech? Or a call for violence against another?

Can you define “hurt”. Do you mean physically or emotionally? If the latter then I think it is too restrictive.

Looking good like a blood cell should.

I tried to find this at work a while ago. I think MS killed it :(

Good write up, thanks!

You have to agree to do it, but you don’t have to lay out a plan or timeline to do it.

Retirement age is one.

Antinatalism or anti-natalism is a philosophical view that deems procreation to be unethical or unjustifiable.

I’m the same. It is quite jaring to see an add now. They seems very obnoxious.

The only issue in have is ads in podcasts. This isn’t a huge deal as the provider usually determine add based on IP so i get a 30 second ad in a language I can’t understand.

Any solutions to this?

P.S. before I switched from YouTube I disabled all data collection and personalisation a few notable ads I used to receive:

• Ads for balls soap (this ad was repugnant)
• Ads for Muslim speed dating, with male chaperone (I’m not a Muslim)
• A 1hour Chinese party political conference, in Chinese (I don’t speak Chinese)

^ Ive got the last one saved out of curiosity.

I remember a time when YouTube was not owned by google and was ad free.

The internet was better before all of this tracking.
