When there are good initiatives like this that should only be used by the intended audience, they get exploited and eventually shut down. Screw the exploiters! How do they even justify it to themselves?

Nailed it - it became trendy to dislike Nickelback, Imagine Dragons and the likes

Unfortunately they became a bit annoying after a bit but looking back, they've put out some fantastic tracks that are hard not to groove to

Kinda like Nickelback. How can you not enjoy Rockstar

The Strokes in general are a fantastic band and there's been no album of theirs that I haven't enjoyed including Comedown Machine

So what about the iPhones pre IP68 certification? They never wanted this

They’re awesome! But kinda unusable when you’re outside and connected to mobile data. Phone heats up quicker than usual, battery doesn’t last as long. I’m on a Pixel 6A, for context.

But condemn Nazism and treatment of Jews under Hitler?

It’s really no different from Russia there. Except, with a WW2 Hitler flavour in dealing with minorities

NFTs in their mainstream form were the most cringe-worthy concept imaginable. A random artist makes a random ape which suddenly becomes a collectible, and all it happened to be was an S3 url on a particular blockchain? Which could be replicated on another chain? How did people think this was a smart thing to invest in?! Especially the Apes and rubbish?!

A 2009 W211! E280D. Gorgeous design that's stood the test of time. I still have it and it drives amazing

Agreed. But it will be a significant loss for a big chunk of people since other LLMs aren’t nearly as good as GPT-4.
