She came in too late for that. The people responsible hire people like her.

It would require replacing the money system with a value production estimation and reward system.

I don’t support an upper limit for income. I want wealth tax and inheritance tax to prevent excessive accumulation.

Artificial scarcity is a crime against humanity. Piracy is the first aid. The solution would be a system that pays for the value produced anywhere in society, including when a copy is used to have fun or make profit. Movie makers would get paid more if they received good ratings from consumers. News Corp would get fined for destroying value.

A hacker may have replaced the authentic video in the phone. The edit must be unnoticeable to the eyewitness who shot it.

Not the light bulbs. They improved light quality and reduced energy consumption per unit of light by increasing filament temperature, which reduced bulb life. Net win for the consumer.

You can still make an incandescent bulb last long by undervolting it orange, but it’ll be bad at illuminating, and it’ll consume almost as much electricity as when glowing yellowish white (standard).

Quora had heckloads of users before the well-working topic system was destroyed with the excuse of tag spamming (real reason: cost-cutting), which us tedium-loving “Topic Gnomes” had always corrected quickly. So it’s not impossible. Now the tagging is done badly by “AI” and my feed content went to shit, even worse than on PieFed with a leaky keyword mute list.

Missing features were a trust system for topic editors (new user = 0 trust, etc.) and answer topic tagging - only the questions were tagged, which didn’t work when the question was general, like “What should you know in 2025?” and the specific answers were all over the place.

Keywords would never have worked for the infinite questions about perpetual motion machines, because the askers never knew the correct term. Similarly, I have failed to craft a keyword block list to filter out all U.S. politics.

I’m hoping for EU-run social media that requires secure ID like a bank. I liked Quora before enshittification when it had real name policy and strict moderation.

European spyware is the least likely to be used to attack Europe.

Manipulation by unnoticeable omission. Europeans getting a personalised censored feed, not getting recommended and advertised what they need. Social media giant AI detects an illness you have, and silences all content that could lead you to health. Dating sites not showing you the most compatible people. Job sites not showing you the jobs that could strengthen Europe.
