Again I get what you're saying, but it's a visual medium. You expect him to put a barcode scanner up there or some shit? The video itself makes some of the same points you do. And yeah YouTube is full of clickait, but if you're gonna be on YouTube, do as the YouTubers do.

Edit: also, he usually does astronomy stuff. The nebula is just his normal background

I mean I get what you're saying but this seems super short sighted. There is good reason to not jump to quantum effects as an explanation for anything unknown. That said, dismissing evidence that suggests that the brain makes use of quantum effects because "quantum mysticism." It frankly seems far more likely that immensely complicated that's had billions of years to evolve, such as a brain, would make use of available phenomena even if it's not something we understand. Note that I'm not suggesting magicy magic quantum physics is secretly magic, simply that mechanically there's no reason why some parts of consciousness would not make use of quantum effects.

Hard to wear clothing that both keeps sun off and heat out.

Bad faith argument. The topic of discussion is reasonable in city trips, not cross country slogs. Op is frustrated his city banned public funding for trains, ergo his question is about getting around his city. Your statement, exposure to the elements, is made more eloquently elsewhere, due to things like rain and snow.

"hey boss, I know you told me not to ask again, so I am not, but in the event you change your mind, I have your upgrade ready to go."

Fair and honest, except the titles. Thank you, tiny badass motherfucker. I accept.

What if I called you a badass tiny motherfucker?

That is absolutely NOT what progress means, you fucking dipshit.

prog·ress noun /ˈpräɡrəs/

forward or onward movement toward a destination.
"the darkness did not stop my progress"

Moving slightly slower on enshittofication than the other guys does not meet that definition.

Improvement, actual improvement, is what is required by progress.

I'm not asking for everything to instantly be better. I'm demanding that things stop slowly getting worse.

Debt forgiveness is a decent step... Again unless educating your populace is as high a priority as it should be, in which case higher education would be freely available to any who wanted it. That's not a moving goalpost, that's simply how it always should have been.

Under that, there simply is no student debt. Also, worth noting that debt forgiveness doesn't actually fix the problem, it just gets people to shut up and go away, so yes I am still screaming for good and free public education for the public good.

I like how the fact that "this has happened before" is somehow a valid excuse for it to happen now. Dismiss me if you like but you still aren't offering any actual rebuttal.

Since the 80s, and Reagan bot major parties have facilitated the transfer of wealth away from the middle class and to the rich specifically.

I don't need to call that out because it's been there for everyone to see for 40 fucking years. What the actual fuck are you on about.
