How about placing your laptop in an uncomfortable place? Mount it on the wall so that it's usable but unpractical to use it for more than a few minutes? I don't think the problem you describe can be solved with a specific computer.
You want to be able to find information in a YouTube video or reddit thread without getting sucked into the rest of YouTube or reddit. Your only solution is discipline.
Listen, if you think a BRICS currency won't be controlled by oligarchs, you're just fooling yourself. But at least there would be more oligarchs controlling things, not just a few Americans.
I think the best outcome of a BRICS currency is that, like in the Eurozone, a common currency nudges countries to cooperate more with each other instead of fight, and this can have a broader positive effect on other countries.
Maybe they shouldn't have given exclusive access to Google. Bing and all Bing-based engines stopped being able to show Reddit results. So now Google has a monopoly on reddit results. Reddit is just learning the shitty effect of monopolies and it serves them right.
But only if you subscribe to lots of communities. I have a couple dozen and only get a few posts per day. So I use my subscribe as home, and then switch to all. But my All is highly censored with word and community filters mostly to remove US politics.
Reminds me of this copypasta (there are many forms of this, this particular one I copied from here)
Why should you buy roses for the woman you care about? I can’t really think of a logical reason. First of all, roses only live for a couple weeks at most, and that’s if you leave them in water. They really only exist to sit there and look nice. That’s basically like telling her: “My love for you is transitory and based solely on your appearance”.
But a potato! Potatoes last for fucking ever. In fact, not only will they not rot but eventually they’ll actually start to grow shit, even if you just leave them in the sack. That part alone makes them a good symbol. That’s more like saying: “My love for you substantiates itself and effortlessly grows forever and ever”.
Wait, there’s more! There are so many ways to enjoy a potato. You can make french fries, sweet potato fries, mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, and if you draw a face on it you’ll have your own custom-made Mr. Potatohead. The best part is, you can even make a battery with it! So really, giving a potato is like saying: “I have many ways in which I show my love for you”.
Now you may be thinking, “BUT POTATOES ARE SO UGLY!”. Well, you’re right, but they’re still awesome and that’s the best part. Because by giving a potato, what you’re really saying is, “Honey, it doesn’t matter at all what you look like, I’ll still love you”.
So the next time you want to go and pick up your woman some flowers, buy a potato instead. > She’ll be thrilled.
Thank you! Yes, it's definitely a spectrum. The goal is to eat the whole plant while reducing processing that removes or destroys healthy fibers and vitamins.
That's the problem of thinking of companies as people. Company operate like ruthless people people they usually responde to several stakeholders that all control the company like an ouija board.
I like to say that corporations will never go out of their way to be charitable. There's always a bottom line, being it PR or direct profit. Even PR and Marketing spend has to eventually lead to increase in profit.
Lookup the East Sea, aka Sea of Japan. Or the Tagus river, aka Tejo river. There's plenty other examples I can't remember now. People don't always agree on what to call things that cross borders. Usually we just agree to disagree as there's no point arguing.
