Per an article on the AT front page, modern CPU chips contain 60+ miles of copper wire.

How the enshitification of services works

I don't disagree with the video, but it isn't only a company issue, it's a user issue. I have zero subscriptions, and my life's fine. Everyone wants everything, for almost nothing. It really is possible to just do without, and if enough people do that, companies will improve service to get customers back. If people just deal with it and pay for it, it proves the companies are right, and you'll get more of the same.

Terrence Howard says he can 'kill gravity', mayne


Weird there is not a single topic lampooning or skewering this tool. There is at least one on every other nerdy/techy/science forum. Searching his name doesn't even reveal a sarcastic swipe or mention about it in passing, except for this lone instance.

1) I never heard of Terrence Howard.
2) I don't look to Joe Rogan for science news (or anything else).

Rogan has been discussed a hundred other times here, especially when having a controversial guest on. I wasn't noting that IronWing hadn't commented on it, but the AT collective.

I don't know anything about Joe Rogan, just happened to come across this interview. I am no scientist but it seemed like Howard said some wacky things.
