  • It doesn't matter, it's a sport. All sport/games are about overcoming unnecessary obstacles within some arbitrary rules. They're not training for the Olympics but they're playing the same game: electric motors aren't allowed in the Olympics so they don't use them.

    As for why they get annoyed at others using electric motors I have no idea: It's like if a chess player got annoyed if they saw someone playing checkers 😅

  • At 25, Wikipedia faces a double threat: the rise of AI and the decline of local media— Human visitors declined in 2025, while AI crawlers are on the rise

  • And my idea of ultra casual is actually shut in casual 😅

    In winter I'd switch to sweatpants and a hoodie.

    Also how is it ultra casual when he's still wearing shoes...

  • But I guess that's just showing my age.

  • Misunderstood ia when you thought you understood something but accidentally did not. Disunderstood is when you understood something but pretend that you didn't.

    Missinformation is when someone publishes information that is incorrect due to a mistake, such as believing outdated or retracted research, disinformation is when you publish information that you know is false with the intention of deceit.

    In both cases the information is false, the only difference would be the intention of the publisher.

  • People are stuck in the role they were born to, but it seems like there are no artificial barriers to advancement

    In the lower three classes, people are cloned in order to produce up to 96 identical "twins." Identity is also achieved by teaching everyone to conform, so that someone who has or feels more than a minimum of individuality is made to feel different, odd, almost an outcast.

    I'd argue that intentionally cloning people with limited abilities and then raising them to stay in thier lane is an artificial barrier...

  • It seems Brave new world is the global north/middle class, 1984 is the global south/working class... With class experience varying by county and over time with a tend towards 1984 experience as the majorities wealth gets extracted by the upper class.

  • I haven't read it, what's not dystopian about it?

    The first thing Wikipedia says about it is "Brave New World is a dystopian novel" 😅
