That's really wrong though: it's really hard to not feel effects of fentanyl, opioids, ketamine either.

Yeah but then if you're trying to replicate Spotify functionality, then you'd need a lot of "dark" tracks so that you could listen to the ones you want to listen on a whim.

But do you really know? Hence stuff like mansplaining where people vastly overestimate their knowledge compared to average Joe

I had a great game as a kid where me and girls were playing for kisses on "words", i.e. "start the next word with the letter of the word I just said". So I invented a whole new vocabulary and then taught them that vocabulary. Apart from the fact that I got a lot of kisses from them they were so happy they learned something new they immediately went to share this with their (and my) parents. Obviously I got a slap but I just don't get how you can think "a kid can do this". You're either completely ignorant of different cultures (i.e. as an Eqstern European I still find it hard to remember Indian names, let alone tell if they are actually fucking with me) or intentionally simplifying the problem.

Let's get it to the next level: shopping for a present for your friend whose birthday is in 5 months? Still higher prices because they can use yiur early reminder to know you'll need that.

But you're not reasoning yourself here. In face you're literally parroting what an LLM would do in this situation: you already know the answer so you think your comprehension of this is better than that if others, when in fact it's just simple pattern matching. It's not a measure of intelligence, it's a measure of memory.

It's amusing you're downvoted when EU clearly has Hungary which is a failed experiment at transforming Hungary (well at least up until last election). You could say the same about Turkey. Both way further ahead of Somalia.

EU went to wars before not because of cultural differences though. It's not like Hitler necessarily wanted everyone to be a German, he just thought some cultures to be less important than others. Besides, you can always make the joke about the "paradox of tolerance" which by definition tolerates intolerance (which is probably at least one major ingredient of current rise of the right).

In which way are advertisers like Google or Amazon screwed over?

So they are not hosting the ads? But either way, stuff like hashing content (and only whitelisting hashes which are approved) should solve that.
