Just spitballing, but potentially:
I think this is the one. It's this generation's Napster, but the difference is it's not Britney Spears and Metallica getting robbed. It's every artist who ever posted their work to the Internet, and that's a huge, huge deal.
Most modern music is a collection of sounds and samples made by other people put together to create a new track. Then they sing over it using autotune. That has been accepted and normalized by the masses.
I'd sooner drive an old beater over even an EV with fifteen million computers that I can't hope to service myself tbh, and motherfuck getting gouged by the Firestone or god forbid, manufacturer mechanic shops for them to do it. Until coast to coast, America's cities are walkable, you won't catch me in a computer'd out car.
Gotta agree with that sentiment. Got an old single cylinder carb-fed bike that I'm not looking to trade for a beep-booper any time soon
I agree with the first two, but the third one will happen only when most things catch on fire during the peak hot times. Workers in Texas don't get water breaks in the current heat wave.
