    This. Continue driving existing cars is more eco-friendly than buying and driving newer vehicles.
    Price discrimination, if you use an expensive phone the price of chips will be higher.
    I felt terrible so I stop eating junk, processed food and only drinking water instead of soft drink, my well-being improved just a little. Then I decided to cut social media(including discussion forums) usage and my well-being improves a lot!
    When I was a kid people just wait for the bus at the bus stop, today most if not all of them are glued on their phone. I found that doing nothing other than just wait for the bus makes me calmer and less likely to lash out on other people.
    Now 1 in 9 children in the US have attention problems.

    This is the problem of Windows
    1. Modern Standby is technology developing backwards. Instead of shutting down everything except the RAM like classic standby/sleep/suspend, Modern Standby keeps the CPU running idle without pausing background process.
    2. Windows 8.1, 10 and 11 love to doing background process at FULL POWER behind your back, the CPU fan goes vroom vroom when I come back from taking a shower, taking out the trash, taking a dump, etc, so I always shut down Windows when I AFK.

    These two problem combined makes the laptop to overheat when standingby in bag. Numerous users report a hot laptop and complete drained battery.

    I'd probably guess it gets the task done faster, since the CPU is using its full processing power. The developers are probably trying to get it out of everyone's way without interrupting their daily schedule, at the cost of battery power and noise levels.

    The problem is their daily schedule should never be interrupted in the first place, most background tasks are completely unnecessary, the few necessary tasks should be run at low CPU %. Windows is getting more and more inefficient, if you completely debloat it then it won't have that amount of background tasks. An iconic example is compattelrunner.exe, the so-called "Compatibility Telemetry process", which benchmarks your computer behind your back and send the result to Microsoft. Microsoft doesn't care about your computer because its not them to pay your electricity bills(or computer repairs).

    Anyway I already migrated to Linux and I would recommend you to do the same. I only use Windows to play games that have poor compatibility on Linux

    Exactly. If only the US Government realized that when they decided to institute Cash 4 Clunkers.

    I know I’ve probably already mentioned stuff about YouTube but it’s getting worse

    They seem to have patched that thing where you can quickly press the back and forward buttons for your browser to skip the ad

    Then for the TV version (not YouTube TV, the TV version of normal YT)…they can do more than two ads. I’ve seen up to 6! 6 ads! And they can’t be skipped!

    Oh and they are maybe moving to server side ads, to block adblockers. But this also breaks the SponsorBlock extension, since videos are server side I believe.

    I’m calling it, this platform is going to die. We might as well call it AdTube at this point

    I hate these entitled humanoids and i'm surprised no one brought this up here yet (or maybe i'm just blind). The video says everything one needs to know.

    The glorious and wonderful EU backing people like this. Also for ever so increasing tax for use of oil, gas and older cars. The planned ban of new ICE cars in 2035⁽ʷᶦˡˡ ᵏᵐˢ ᵇʸ ᵗʰᵉⁿ ᵃⁿʸʷᵃʸ ᶠᵒʳ ʳᵉᵃˢᵒⁿˢ⁾ which they will k i n d l y rEaVaLuAtE.

    People who blindly support certain countries, even tho they didn't know existed before it became the current thing.

    People were screaming about "muh peak oil" several times before yet the oil consumption kept increasing. It turns out that you cannot simply bank all your focus into one energy source which you should diversify the energy supply, the electric grid is 100% not ready for full on electric battery cars and not to mention the spontaneous fires and unopenable doors too.

    Which is why electric cars in third world countries are not as popular not only due to their high price tag, but also because of the scarcity (or lack thereof) charging stations.

    I hate how the Google iOS app rearranges my tabs, even if I move them back. And there’s no option to turn it off :mad:

    I hate circumcision.

    I love loud bass from huge subwoofers.

    I hate WiFi

    I hate low quality of, it seems, near everything produced today

    I hate cops because they enforce "the law" but it's really a social construct they are more bound to than law

    I hate modern cars (I love buttons, the Mitsubishi Mirage is an exception)

    I hate taxes because they are forcing me to fund criminal enterprise

    The US government no longer needed to control Afghanistan because all their opiate addicts are on fentanyl. Taliban makes Opium Poppy growing and production illegal shortly after we left. USA kept it legal, for some indeterminate reason. The US military trafficked cocaine for a long time too which is established fact.

    There is dishonesty running through every facet of American culture/society.

    The word you are probably looking for is hypocrisy. And it's in Europe too.
