Gymnospermae are older than duodecuos trees, granpa. They were here first.

I am not interested in being preached at unless you have a workable alternative and a good reason why should I switch over.

On an unrelated note, I really like the saturated color palette of early color TV shows. When did we decide that the default color palette should be awash in cold blue?

I am fucking sick of junior highschool takes on complex geopolitical situations. OP thinks Hamas using civilians as human shields is a funny meme and not actual, grim reality.

I like how corny it is, it fits the "pioneers on an exploratory mission" perfectly. Having a bombastic orchestral theme pre-federation makes no sense, the first Enterprise is a sitting duck for just about any starfaring culture, they got boarded by the Ferengi one time, ffs.

Over reliance on algorithms has degraded the user experience to the point that the average user is drowning in ragebait and extremist politics, because they drive up engagement. Just like a toddler, algorithms don't discriminate between good and bad attention, so everything that gets clicks is thrust forward. Now, you could hope to train the algorithm to show you only postive things, but engagement is engagement and the algorithm curators often engage in rage farming, where your feed is injected with things that are likely to enrage you.

You can avoid this by installing an RSS reader, going to your favorite sites, and manually adding a RSS feed. Now, your reader has things that you manually selected, with the added bonus of having a content pipe free of malicious interference. You can also divide topics in a way that you can avoid certain themes and news until you decide to engage them.
