It is a protocol. If I have to list a bunch of files on my system I don't call a rest server. Same way mcp is not for you doing your stuff. It is for other people do to stuff on your server by the way of tools.

Nobody stopped Samsung or Microsoft from supporting android apps. Virtualization is pretty much present in all the phones.

The reality is that they all wanted what Apple had - a walled garden to charge exorbitant amounts. Only Google had the foresight to leverage open source (not free).

Thanks that was quite informative, perfect for me.

I find it so incredibly funny that even questioning western media immediately puts a leader into fascist category but someone loses an election in romania and questioning tiktok is just the wisest more logical and righteous thing to do. "Fascism" exists now in the same space as "communism" did during cold war - easy othering.

EDIT: And may be that is why there is huge distrust against media. It is quite disturbing that tea-party has became the new hippie movement.

Low and high are but you imposing your value system onto something that exists irrespective of it. "Low" could very well be the activity of breathing if one argues enough to show it. In reality actions don't and shouldn't exist to serve a higher purpose. Attachment with result is the cause of suffering. Attach yourself to the action.

Because that oil is not being consumed in India where it is still Saudi oil running the cars. That oil is being bought by Europe and USA.

That is a very common perception from people whom haven't given him any attention. I used to be in the same boat but it was eventually very interesting when I listened to him.

Did I miss an age or copyright is still different from patent?

Since you took the liberty to replace slot machines with "casino's free buffet" - an especially disingenuous misrepresentation - I mean do you want to say that people go to casino for food, and when I specifically avoided using the word casino... Can I go ahead and say that you all are acting like addicts being called out? I mean, did I use say we should block YouTube?

Talk about the "lengths" people go to defend their addiction. This is my general impression of the lot here on HN. You guys are so deep into cult of bullshitting that normal argument feels like an attack and invites downvotes.

Because it is designed for addiction? Is that up for debate? YouTube is top result because it is owned by Google. This is a standard business model.

People bet into slot machines. Put an entry fee into a room full of slot machines and see for yourself how many people come to play.

The only way for a casino to make sure people pay to play a slot machines is to keep a free entry option that is gets annoying quickly. It is creation of a problem to justify a paid solution. Ad blockers solve that problem for free and have to be blocked.

And people who are addicted to slot machines have their own favorite games that they play all day long. They might pay at a chance to play. Youtube doesn't actually want to have a competitor at the same time.

The cheapness is in the eyes of the beholder because in reality it is only cheap compared to iPhone.

The space of democracy is already taken by the leader of the freeworld that dictates how democracy should look like. So if you can't play the game, it is logical to want to play your own game.
