Honestly, that’s pretty great. We have limitations on online casinos, because of social harm. How is TikTok and vidya different?

If creator of service claims you can pay anonymously with crypto and doesn’t offer XMR, they are not being earnest and intellectually honest, because we know they know XMR is the only legit actually anon crypto. Why would anyone use this service when they can use Mullvad or IVPN and pay via XMR directly?
"AI safety" is just folk who were too incapable to build LLMs themselves trying to be relevant. Of course, it’s all bull. If computer does bad, you just pull the plug.
What if I’m addicted not to my phone, but web in general? Be it iPad, PC or phone in front of me, I will immediately go to Reddit, ycombinator and trick myself into thinking I’m being productive and learning when in actuality I am just consuming like now.
