The modern Republican movement is an outgrowth of what the Reagan Republicans created.

I remember the internet era of the 90s/00s where piracy and porn sites had scammy ads and the legit sites were far more clean.

It seems to have completely reversed.

Because they either delusionally believe more captial is required to reach their AI nirvana or they want to keep the grift going.

 

Rule of law is obviously sympathetic to Hamas.

I miss the hanging out with the same online mates.

It occured to me when I quit Reddit that I hadn't made a single friend on there in 10 years but made loads on the forums I used to frequent.

I miss the old forums.

The peak of the internet.

What is this awesomeness?

I think it may have been even larger but not by much.

The difference is the dot com bubble ended up with huge amounts of fibre infrastructure installed which was ultimately used (many years later).

This bubble will end up with huge data centres with obsolete GPUs which have massive water and power consumption burdens.

 

The US was a breadbasket of the world. Now, we import most of our food- including breadbasket staples like beef, potatoes, peanut butter, and flour. When egg prices spiked earlier this year, we couldn't farm our way out of it- even though we have one of the highest square miles of high-quality farmland of any country in the world. We had to import eggs.

And it didn't start with tariffs. The US has been growing less and less food for the last 15+ years. So: What's going on?

 

Supply and Demand.

If there is no supply of good public infrastructure, inclusive institutions, good governance, etc. people will go elsewhere.

And also, lol.
