Don't forget America's role in the spread of capitalist extremism among employers and politicians. I think that has impacted people's lives a lot more than American culture even though the latter played a role in the propaganda arm of that operation of course.

Wouldn't be a proper dead internet if the AI agents talking to each other didn't do it in the most inefficient way possible by using a web browser.

Top AI power? What does that even mean in an industry that is barely 3 years old and hasn't really produced anything of measurable significance other than a whole lot of blame diffusion?

You think it is bad now? Just wait for the new and enshittified Google Search 2026.

Those who want it have been using it for 20 years already with Second Life. Oddly enough, none of these new metaverse makers take any lessons learned from that but I guess then they would have to admit that VR is crap that nobody needs for immersion.

Do you think “Dance hype craze” video 574 is going to be something we remember fondly in 2040?

Well, I know I remember the Hamster dance website fondly, does that count as a dance hype craze?

I also remember many Youtube videos from many years ago with some amount of nostalgia, e.g. Chocolate Rain or Mocha in "His First Broccoli" or the Yogscast series Shadow of Israphel.

I know some old shows and movies hold up well but others are pretty bad too. And the newer ones have an even worse ratio there.

As far as cringe goes, I think some of the series you mentioned, like Friends, has a good percentage of that too.

Möglich wäre das sicherlich, aber da müsste man vielleicht erst mal das Konzept weiter fördern bevor man der öffentlichen Hand effektiv verbietet von vielen Firmen zu kaufen.

Sinnvoller wäre vielleicht im Sinne der Förderung der lokalen Produkte und Dienstleister eher eine Regelung dass die öffentliche Hand nur von Herstellern mit Herstellung und Mehrheitsbesitz in der EU kaufen darf (ggf. mit Ausnahmen für Produkte wie Open Source Software die gemeinschaftlich weltweit entwickelt werden).

The tricky bit is recognizing that the requests are all from the same source. Often they use different IP addresses and to even classify requests at all you have to keep extra state around that you wouldn't need without this anti-social behavior.

Luckily Google is working tirelessly on making their own search product worse every year.

Tarifverträge sind traditionell nur in Branchen mit relativ großen Arbeitgebern üblich, weniger in solchen wo es nur ein paar bis ein paar Dutzend Mitarbeiter pro Firma gibt.

I really don't see any downsides, if anything they should ban all the major social media platforms and encourage diversity of platform ownership among the platforms used in the public discourse to strengthen freedom of speech.

Probably from the same spot where they get the idea that languages literally designed within the first few decades of our profession are the pinnacle of technical excellence and can never be surpassed.
