Rastafari isn't actually that cool, especially not when it comes to gay people. They are also strongly opposed to oral and anal in heterosexual couples and are generally quite patriarchal. Have a read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rastafari
Also, afrocentrism is one of its core ideas, which makes it pretty weird when white people convert to it (e.g. Gentleman, a German reggea singer).
Also, weed is still illegal in Jamaica. I assume it gets tolerated somewhat, at least with the Rastafaris, but it's technically illegal.
Also also, Jamaican rum is really good! It's a very special style, no one makes it quite like they do.
dbzer0 or shitjustworks would have been way better than world. There's just way too many assholes on world, and even if you ban everyone who is overtly malicious there's still going to be a ton of normal users who are bringing a completely different vibe/political direction than the blahaj users (I say, as a feddit.org user).
I know, our society is pretty fucked up that way. And I really wish the internet would start agreeing and widely implementing an NSFL tag for gore - I'd much rather see someone's genitals (even if they're unattractive) than people getting severely wounded in graphic detail.
OP's premise is specifically that you cannot detect them easily at some point in the future. Are you planning on insulting every single person who wears prescription glasses?
Currently the camera and/or screen information might be fairly obvious just by looking, but assuming technology improves this could become harder to detect.
Hard to answer if you're using something extremely hypothetical like this. If we don't know how that's supposed to work, we can't really come up with a feasible solution.
I suppose you could just set off a small EMP - surely if AI/screen tech is that small, EMP emitters would get miniaturized as well?
The Great Gatsby is 100 years old. I'd assume that books were still more expensive back then relative to people's incomes, and they were also the only way to access that content while today you have e-books, PDFs, YouTube-videos or even websites, which are often available for free (not necessarily legally).
On top of that, many literary devices are unrealistic or exaggerated.
Eyeglasses are an interesting case, because there seems to be a causal relationship between being nearsighted and staying inside a lot as a kid, which used to be mostly people who read books or just spend a lot of time on school work. That's less relevant now that kids stay inside to watch TV, play videogames or scroll on their phone, though. Also, many people who need glasses either didn't have the means (e.g. no access to eye doctors, no money for glasses; probably not as important nowadays in most wealthy countries) or choose to not wear them due to vanity, and both of those reasons are kind of orthogonal to adjectives like "intelligent" or "intellectual".
How many people actually collect books for show? That seems uncommon and it should usually be fairly easy to tell for people who are somewhat well-read.
The thing with chess is that it's not fun if you aren't any good at it, and the difference between people who are somewhat good and those who aren't is pretty big. You can get there with pure perseverance (same with most other things that gets listed here, probably), but most people tend to pick hobbies that they don't have a hard time with.
Many ways to end up there. Falling chronically ill is an easy to understand one, even depression can leave you completely unable to get or keep a half-decent job, but many of the better-paying jobs also require some amount of physical fitness. And if you live in the US, any kind of emergency can single-handedly wipe out all of your savings.
Also spending some time in prison might do it, which often happens for bullshit charges. Or just plain old generational economic deprivation - it's a feedback loop!
A lot of online leftists aren't doing anything because they don't know how to do something (or are scared, e.g. of losing their job or of getting brutalized by the police). If you aren't doing anything in The Real World(TM) there are only so many things left to do, and the internet is genuinely terrible about people who make mistakes or change their opinion.
Tolkien also wrote the orcs as pretty explicitly "always evil", at least in lord of the rings and the hobbit. He seemed to be conflicted about making an always-evil race, but that IS how it's written in those books.
Most of today's living elves were already alive back then! By human standards, those times were like the 1990s ... which were actually pretty different times when it comes to political correctness, so fair point actually.
TBH I got it specifically to make chip music, in like 2011. Making music on it is pretty cool actually, but while I did try a couple of games on it it didn't really wow me. Even beyond the outdated technology, I don't really like playing games that don't let you quickload, especially when they're actually kind of hard or generally have a lot of unskippable repetition.
MS Word is essentially a monopoly, but that doesn't mean that every detail of its features is worth copying - quite the opposite, actually. And again, why do you even want to automatically capitalize the first word after a line break that is not a proper sentence stop?
Or why LibreOffice is so stubborn on keeping the menu bar default instead of the ribbon-bar
AFAIK many users, especially those used to the old UI, dislike the ribbon design.
