Aight but if a critical mass flees the spam-ridden husks of reddit/Twitter, the bots will come for us too.

Yeah, guys like Belogubov won't stop at Reddit, they'll infest every forum on the web to make even more money.
What can we do?
Human moderation of course, but against bots this might be a loosing battle.
So good AIs to fight bad AIs?
Or, if push comes to shove, white hats could take down the ReplyGuy website and the likes.

Technically you don't own your Steam games too. As far as game platforms go, it's just GOG and Itch.io where you actually own the copy, right?

Yes but if Valve goes bankrupt (unlikely today but the winds may change), imagine the amount of backlash caused by people not being able to download "their" games since the servers would have been sold.

Thank you for the warning!

I agree the ideal solution would have been to stamp out antisemitism, so that a Jewish State would not have been necessary. But that should have been done before millions of Jews were killed in genocide.
Imagine being being a survivor and being told : "Trust us, we are good people now, we won't commit genocide against you... again".
Antisemitism and antisemites didn't all die with Hitler.

Interesting, I didn't know about strong implicit multiplication. So I would have said the result is 9.
All along my studies in France, up to my physics courses at University, all my teachers used weak implicit multiplication.
Could be it's the norm in France, or they only use it in math studies at University.

Yes of course, we always used fractions so there was no ambiguity.
Last time I saw the division symbol must have been in primary school!

The number one problem of modern appliance is indeed longevity I'd say. The so called "planned obsolescence" is probably what mainly drives or consumption of electronics and, accordingly, our production of e-waste.
But Framework might just be saying that for green washing purposes.
