Then that vendor need to go to /dev/null and end its business.

You might struggle to run a financial system without any financial institutions. Once again just look at the wonderful world of cryptocurrencies. They’re speed running all the historical financial scams, and rediscovering why financial regulation exists.

Aliexpress still has those.

That's the Israel's Hasbara for you. I hate both these nuts and Hamas indoctrinating children in Palestine too, they are a different side of the same fundamentalist coin.

Abrahamic religiouns should had already learnt that the Chinese/Koreans/Japanese and the Indians didn't give a shit on milenia old tales and they didn't get "God generated punishments" the Bible told us will happen. Ditto with the native trives from Canada to the Patagonia until the Europeans arrived. Or Australia, too.

The same as music. Dumb down the genres once they are almost the same: Metal, rock, pop. Tons of cross-polinated chords and riffs, so the genre can be followed by almost anyone. Ditto with the lyrics.

So, Netflix it's doing the same. And Marvel with the comics, where every hero it's just the same but with different weapons.

And the books, too. A good 90% of best sellers are utter crap, really streamlined stories so everyone can follow the plots as if they were cheap soap operas.

In the end, you need to go elsewhere (niche books and media) to find something worth your dollars/euros.

Something it's wrong when some people writting fiction in Gemini (not AI, protocol) both in English and in Spanish can hook you better than any random library.

And don't let me start on AI produced crap from Amazon and Spotify...

I think the "algorithm movie" concept, describes something also very prevalent in music these days.

With the number of music producers which learn from tutorials and want to make music within a certain genre are incentivized to generally not stray too far from the prescribed genre conventions. This in turn is amplified by algorithms that will also not stray too far when recommending music in response to someone's listening habits. These habits again often "poisoned" by the listener not really paying attention to the music that is served them, as it might only be on in the background while working or doing something else.

Its like a lot of people with nothing to say, being recommended by something that does not understand anything, recommending to people who don't really listen.

We, the listeners reap what we sow, I guess

Free sofware, free society/Software libre para una sociedad libre. Send these ebooks (either PDF or EPUB) to anyone.

Everyone should have read "The Right to Read/El derecho a leer" too, that can be read in few minutes by just sharing the GNU/FSF link.

Learn to use bubblewrap with small chroot.

Bubblewrap has refused to fix known security issues in its codebase and shouldn't be used.

alt.sys.pdp10 and alt.sys.pdp11 in Usenet might tangentially have some experience with Maclisp under ITS (and related systems).

It’s associated, not causal, and likely explained by diabetes as a 3rd variable. (Diabetes can blind you and glp-1 drugs are treatments for diabetes.)

The blindness is linked to rapidly changing A1C in diabetics and is a small increase in overall risk.

If you're just using it for weight loss and aren't diabetic, you have no increase in risk.

This is also why your weight loss should be monitored by a doctor.

Super uncertain, and, if the effect exists, it's tiny --- huge numbers of people have been taking these drugs for many years. Meanwhile, we know with certainty that T2D can blind you, and we know mechanistically why that happens. If you're at T2D risk, NAION would be a really dumb reason to avoid GLP-1s.

Spain too:

Private channels have teletext pages too.

Yep. No bias, no matter which political side you choose, you just got raw news in any channel. That was great for objectivity and fairness.

I don't know how you read that into my post.

It is quite different: Having such a limited channel as Teletext one has to be even more selective on the news being reported and then which aspects of it to report.

Over here in Germany I got some TV stations discussing on celebrity news, some station focusing on economy/business news, others on political things, some in sports.

But yeah, USA has this "two sides" issue with a touch of zero sum (it's always either this or that side and either helping one or the other side)

The constant belief by people that somehow, if you remove information, you reduce bias is insane.

I assure you, Pravda could fit it's biases, lies, propaganda, and omissions in 160 characters. Bullshit has always been easy to shrink.

It is nuance, context, framing, etc that you are eschewing in your mistaken belief of "no bias".
