I’d argue that the internet has made this problem worse, not better.

In fact, I’d argue that the internet has taken away tons of people’s ability to admit they’re wrong because there’s always an echo chamber that will support you on even the dumbest of beliefs and anyone fact checking anyone is seen as the enemy. You see this on places like Facebook and YouTube comments where someone will make a claim, other people will think it makes sense on a cursory glance and express their agreement, then someone who actually knows what they’re talking about will politely correct them and everyone will gang up on them because they’ve disrupted the vibe, and simply because of that the unanimous decision is made that the correct answer is in fact wrong and is a government conspiracy.

Same reason Siemens, Volkswagen, Bayer, and many more, including a ton of American ones were onboard with the Holocaust.

Genocide is good for business.

No one works harder than people whose lives are threatened [for example, by starvation] and they are working to not die.

The logical conclusion of this is that we should bring back slavery and extermination camps because that’s how you maximize the efficiency from of humans. /s (obviously)

Mostly cerebal spinal fluid.

The gyroscope can record your speech: https://crypto.stanford.edu/gyrophone/files/gyromic.pdf

And no OS requires permissions for apps to access your motion sensors.

If you’re not allowed to modify it, it’s not open source.

Then you’ve developed a caffeine tolerance. I find that abstaining from caffeine for a week or two goes a long way to making it effective again.

Black coffee. Works just as well for a quarter of the price without fucking your kidneys up or giving you diabetes.

I know this is sarcasm, but I still have to also point out that companies literally conspire with each other to undermine the consumer’s ability to choose. Remember when Apple removed the headphone jack and Android vendors mocked their decision for all of one year before immediately following suit? That’s 100% intentional and planned from the start. They know we want to vote with our money, which is why they do everything they can to make sure we don’t have that choice.

No, because humans are hardwired to be diurnal and there is very little we can do to change that. We have a prominant window of circadian low, and it’s one of the biggest threats to pilots that fly at night (among other safety critical jobs) even if they have slept for 8+ hours right before their shift.

You might think you can function just fine at night, you might even think you function better at night, but science says otherwise.

Additional reminder that Google not only records your location minute by minute, they also record your motion activity through your phone’s gyroscope and know exactly what you’re doing (walking, running, biking, driving, playing sports, etc). You can view all of this in your history. It’s genuinely infuriating that they can get away with this.

You can turn it off in your settings, but as with any proprietary software you can never be sure that they’re not still doing it (why wouldn’t they? that’s just leaving profit on the table)

I swear they intentionally make their app buggy as shit on Linux to punish us for not using Windows.

There needs to be a law mandating expandable storage in phones.
