root cause solution: outlaw advertising
advertising is what makes social media bad, because it creates an incentive system such that more traffic = more profits, and so companies are incentivised to create conflict (radicalise people) so they stay on the site more
that sounds fire as fuck
free and open not free open

I see a bearded muscly man holding his arms out (you need to zoom in a bit more)
ksp 2 cyberpunk starfield
single player corporate games are still corporate games, removing the multiplayer aspect doesn't remove the shittiness entirely
passive/active are just 2 modes you can select between and active is simply better so for me there's literally 0 problems
Camera + ID = zero privacy for anyone
is a child watching tom scott really a bad thing?
also if someone doesn't want to provide service to Australia because they don't want to handle IDs, how would you block Australians? ip bans won't work because a child can use vpns, and if you want to verify by foreign ID for this then you still need ID checking
australia doing this makes it worse for everyone in the world
also a child could also just ask their parents to verify for them
afaik it's just the msi pro -a z690/z790 boards
yeah i play ksp and rainworld with coreboot+disabled ME thinkpad t430 and it's fine (coreboot has no performance penalties)
the only thing coreboot broke in my instance was the passive (cpufreq) powersave cpu scaler for my cpu, but I could just switch to the active (intel_pstate) powersave cpu scaler which is better anyway
are there modern desktop motherboards/chipsets/bioses that let you disable ME though? the z690/z790 are the only ones that I know can run coreboot (ignoring laptop motherboards), but I thought that still had to run ME?
i mean it's in the name:
