Vimeo will never be effective because they've already issued a statement that they neither want to be like YouTube or host the same variety/types of content.
It's not unreasonable, and it's exactly how it used to work until Google started messing around with inserting ads into every aspect of the site (they very much want you to you click on the ad-laden videos you were NOT looking for). They changed the default and relegated it to be a search modifier.
TPM 2 plus a BIOS update for any board made pre August of 2021, & 60GB or so of free space on their OS drive, which these days is also more of a rarity since the trend has been small OS SSD drive with large secondary & storage drives.
Except it hasn't been, instead places like China (the largest crypto mining market on the planet) has instead opted to open new coal plants to feed their state operated mining centers.
To a point, but that trust by the public can be easily swayed and destroyed - see Biden pick Janet Yellen and her recent comments about how BTC is used for and good for nothing but criminal activity including that by state sponsors of terrorism.
It shouldn't have been, because many plant-based dishes do not include the same amount of nutrients if they are cooked as opposed to consuming the raw vegetable ingredients, and people are either unaware of this entirely or completely neglect taking it into account in regards to actual nutritional value. That's before we even address nutrient bio-availability of ingredients pre-and-post preparation. You will always see tons of people crow about how many vitamins and other nutrients certain foods have, but they rarely if ever mention that with many of them you'd have to eat a dump truck full of it to even approach your daily recommended value because your body simply refuses to process much of it and passes it on as waste.
I can make a complete surf-n-turf meal for a shorter amount of time than that, on top of the fact many people hate things like lentils and cottage cheese. When discussing meat replacements, you have to not just look at cost, but what people are actually willing to eat and take time making when given any choice whatsoever (and most people will choose things that take less time and do not taste like lentils and cottage cheese).
Because of how much of it is added into every alternative meat replacement product, and it's a shockingly high amount if you read the labels on some "organic" and "plant-based" products.
The farming industry in California would be non-existent without constant subsidizing both of the crops and the extraordinarily wasteful and expensive importing of water from numerous other states to prevent the farmland that was originally desert from reverting back to it's natural state.
You're missing the part where those government subsidies are being issued to growers who provide products certified for the SNAP and WIC programs. You remove the subsidies and mess with the tariffs too much and now you're into a whole other problem of growers now refusing to participate in either program.
We import those products like garlic and broccoli from China as part of a trade deal where they import corn and other grains even though they can and do produce their own. They have many more mouths to feed, so on their end, getting all of this extra grain in exchange for shipping over a select variety of vegetables and fish is a net plus to them, and to us, it provides an established return on government provided grain subsidies that allow them to issue more grain subsidies.
Not in the USA. It's been firmly ruled protected by SCOTUS, with the same caveats tied to it as other speech. In other words, direct call to harm is not protected, saying you hate them or a subset of their characteristics is absolutely protected.
Broadly speaking it boils down to collectivism vs individualism and authoritarian vs libertarian on an x,y economic axis. The social z axis defining "left" and "right" (more accurately progressive and conservative) is a spook because morality is culturally subjective.
You're correct, government in the USA and Australia for instance, is massively profit-taking via the taxes to the point that they are taking in more revenue per pack than the tobacco companies.
No, but I can fully understand their viewpoint, especially if they have kids to monitor. People forget part of the reason YT has been cracking down heavily on the behavior and content within streams and static video is complaints from parents and politicians, not just advertisers or nebulous "social justice" groups. What we may see as perfectly acceptable is not the same as the parents of a young teenager trying to prevent their kid getting bombed with Rule 34 content because they were suggested a Fortnite stream.
A recent heavily awarded post was broken down by cost per award. The money spent to award that post what it got was over $24,000, and that was just in the new award types and not the older medal/coin types. Adding the latter in pushed the total to just under $36k for that single post.
As for advertising on Reddit, I view it as a fool's errand on the part of advertisers given the extensive popularity of PiHoles and adblocking software among the userbase.
The phenomenon you are describing is called "Summer Reddit", and that term comes about yearly because schoolchildren are home for the summer, with the average age of Redditors participating during this time lowering from 24 to 16. It also heavily correlates with an increase in edgy commenting and shitposting.
We have labor laws forbidding discrimination based on national origin, and yes, some corporations use H1-B and related visa systems as a loophole around those laws to discriminate based on national origin and more than likely the rest such as race, ethnicity, etc. In my time spent in tech-related fields I have certainly seen companies provide more favorable benefits and overall treatment to say, Ukrainian SysOps vs their counterparts from India or Bangladesh.
We should, but you'll be facing major pushback not just by US politicians, but in regards to Indian nationals, certain very large companies who's entire business model relies on H1-B being like it is because one of their intentions is exactly to have them come here, get any extra training, experience, etc and then farm them out to native corporations.
