Never liked that argument. It's essentially "Why, don't you like immigration, dummy? Don't you know immigrants are easily exploited to do hard labour cheaply?"

I'm not saying it isn't true, especially in the west, but in my eyes, there are much more moral arguments for immigration.

Whenever I'm in Munich, I see a lot of BMW test vehicles, with the new parts partially camouflaged. I never really liked them, but they're getting worse really rapidly now. Their new SUV looks like it's a cyberpunk parody of an overly aggressive car.

Wasn't one of the points of the book that the Voight-Kampff might not necessarily be infallible?

I get people buying cheap Xiaomi phones because they can't afford a more expensive phone. I kinda don't get why people buy expensive Xiaomi phones.

I generally am sceptical of news sources with viral in their name.

Reuters has something like that too, called Reuters Plus. It's less blatant, and isn't pushed in with their proper content, but I find paid articles by purportedly quality outlets extremely questionable in anyway.

I mean, I get that it can be hard to find a good UI/UX, but I think I'd sill take a look at the Hindenburg Research report. I know they're a hedge fund that stands to gain from the firms they're short-selling loosing in value, which is questionable, but I'm unaware of them manipulating facts. I personally don't think it'd be comfortable trusting Opera/their owners, if they're willing to do stuff like this.

I'd have expected Chthonic, but I'm fine with either.

Piracy is gonna get more interesting.

I thought the first one was fun, but kinda overhyped. Wasn't sure I'd watch a second, but this pretty much ensures I will.
