It depends on what you want. Cars in a lot of countries are required to have some digital features, such as a backup camera.

Since you're in the states, you could consider something basic, like a Mazda 2 series or an MX-5. I also imagine that some lower trim Ford, Kia, Hyundai, Toyota, or Chevy models (Chevy Spark?) could be a good option.

It get's easier outside of the US. The VW Up is about as analog as you can get - the digital infotainment system is a smart phone app.

> I don't quite understand why anything is ever taken off the streaming service.

Probably won't happen for the first-party services like Disney Plus, Paramount, etc. but things leave Netflix because the deals for streaming usually last 5-15 years; no studio exec wants to be the name attached to something like "Netflix gets exclusive streaming rights to this film in perpetuity" when 50 years down the line it would've made more sense to relicense it to X other company or bring it into your own streaming library. It's not anywhere near a technical limitation like you suggest, it's a money issue.
A very good question. I have been asking myself the same. Was thinking af maybe an older Subaru.
You can make art according to your own creative impulses (and get paid for that) or...you can make commissioned porn for furries. Choose wisely.

> Why is Disney worth $275B despite all of their movies hitting The Pirate Bay immediately upon their release?

Merchandise, theme parks, movie tickets, cruises, live shows (eg "Disney on Ice"), and so on. You're typically not going to find an HD quality pirated movie the second it hits theaters, only once it's released to the home or sent out as a screener. That's only a tiny slice of their diversified pie. For the record, I'm not usually one to defend Disney as a corporation.

> I can Google Image search pictures of the Mona Lisa with zero effort. Thus, the original is worthless?

It's not worthless. :) The original is the original physical painting that you can touch and feel, and your Google Image results are a bunch of pixels of photos/scans of the painting. On the other hand, if you create an original .jpg and sell it as an NFT, every other .jpg of that NFT is literally identical to the original, something you cannot achieve with your Mona Lisa comparison.
> Wash trading is market, price, and reputation manipulation, not money laundering or tax evasion

A lot of money laundering involves wash trading. That's why institutions like Coinbase have systems in place to detect it. Non-laundering wash trades would get flagged by such a system. If it were systemic, it would almost certainly merit a SAR.
There is also too much "content" being made, and not enough quality movies to watch. There's a recent reddit thread[1] about this weird trend lately where more and more of what's offered is junk "made for TV" quality content. Even the word we use for it is revealing: Content. So boring. So gray and bland. Like a dry cardboard media ration made specifically to be consumed by some global ISO-standard Consumer. Everything has this odd B-movie With Big Stars hue. But two months after you view it, you struggle to even remember what it was about. Polished, featureless content, but hey, it's in 4K and stars Dwayne Johnson.

High-quality, daring, inspired, more than superficially controversial, world-changing movies are another casualty of the rise of streaming.

> a political phenomenon... In left-leaning circle

its a political phenomenon if you make it about left/right. There is evidence of discrimination society wide. That doesn't have to be political.

Discrimination is wrong and can be fixed.

In left-leaning circles, people accept that there is discrimination, regardless of other reasons.

In right-leaning circles, people deny that they or others have done anything wrong, and don't solve real issues encountered.

Source: There are lots of accounts of people being discriminated against in hiring or professional opportunities.
>A society cannot "simply choose" to reject corporate and government mass surveillance.

There is absolutely choice. Both are are supported by continuous choices choices people make every do. The choices are different between government and corporate surveillance.

On the government surveillance side, people can choose to vote for politicians that support their privacy and lobby their representatives. They can also start public propositions, make donations, or run for office.

On the corporate side, people can choose to refuse to use products, websites, or stores that sell their data. People can take actions to anonymize themselves.

People make these choices every day. Often people choose not to support privacy because they value something else more, e.g. convenience, money, time, safety, ect.

Timing the market is a hopeless task. We do not know yet if our treasuries will make an attempt to wean themselves off cheap credit or not.

I am afraid they won't, but even then the curve may vary a lot.

Major inflation like we haven't seen since the 1970s.

That's what the U.S. government needs. $29 trillion in debt paying $417 billion in interest per year = average interest of 1.43%.

Now imagine average interest rate across the curve goes to 2.86% and now we're paying $834 billion in interest per year.

Then it goes to 5% and we're paying $1.45 trillion in interest payments per year. That's over a third of the total tax revenue of the Federal government! More than we spend on defense!

The U.S. government is so far in debt that it needs inflation to erase it. Nothing else will.

So no surprise, the Federal Reserve balance sheet has grown to $8.5 trillion:

https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/bst_recenttren...

The Fed continues to buy $120 billion in bonds per month, interest rates are close to zero, we're mailing checks out to people each month, we just approved $1 trillion in stimulus a few weeks ago and on the cusp of approving almost $2 trillion more.

It's hilarious that after a decade of explosion in streaming the corps still can't (don't want to) beat the experience of torrents + mpv.

The latter is particularly interesting since there are no licensing issues. Every professional streaming service should have a better player than mpv. None actually do.

You could say that it's always like that because pirates get their content for free. However, Spotify and others managed just fine with music which used to be even more widely pirated than tv shows and movies.

> I disagree. I want to support the content I like. So I type it into my browser, find the content owner, see if they have a quick and easy way to buy it directly from them, and then watch it.

How often can you just buy the content? There are many movies that I would love to buy and own but there is no option. It is either lend them for streaming or buy a super expensive blue ray which I don't get to own because of DRM. I wish there was a gog.com kind of solution.

The only way I can truly own a movie is to pirate it.

I get wanting to help content creators but I think it is fine to help just some of them (especially the smaller ones). There is no reason to feel bad about not helping all of them. Pirating something can still help the creators buy creating more attention. You might not pay for it but the friend you are telling about it, might. Or you might pay later after having more money.
I moved to the USA in 1989, and after 24 years in the UK, found trying to watch TV in the US totally unbearable. I thought it was because (a) the shows were so bad (b) the ads were terrible.

Netflix has made it clear to me that although many of the shows were awful, not all of them were, and that being able to see them without ads gave me a totally different appreciation for what (some) people were trying to do on TV over the last 3 decades.
Meh, I'm winning, at least here in the UK. I have Disney, Apple, Netflix, Amazon and BBC, including the option to buy/rent new stuff on amazon, giving me massive amounts of choice for less than mother-in-law pays for her Boomer TV package with Sky, and she gets adverts!

Apple was 'free' with the last phone I bought, but I'll pay for it when the next season of For All Mankind is on.

Still have to torrent stuff. Paramount literally won't let me buy the latest version of Discovery after their shocking "fuck you" to the world this week.
You really think people equate crypto wallets with physical wallets, more than they do bank accounts? Not sure I agree. I think it would be much better if they did equate it with a wallet. An account can be recovered if lost, a wallet cannot. Wallet encourages better behavior security wise IMO.

I think the fake 'inflation' we are seeing (which is really supply-side shock) will vanish, and reveal that we are in a huge deflationary environment.

Remote work is here to stay.

Rents go up as over-leveraged landlords will have to pay back rising interest rates (QE is tapering already now).

Climate issues, real and not so real, will be used to achieve the control agenda of established power in the same way the pandemic was.

The culture wars will continue humming away in the foreground, distracting us from our declining quality of life and the transfer of wealth from the lower and middle classes taking place before our eyes.

Overall, it will get worse as our current predicament perhaps needs to.
I think this is an apples to oranges comparison, since single episodes of tv shows aren't generally available to rent, unlike movies.

Woosh - this is for pros only. But great for those who can do it.
I currently drive a 2021 Nissan NV200 Compact Cargovan. It's about as basic of a vehicle you can get. I'm slowly turning it into a miniRV because I like to go camping at times. Works great as a place to sleep when I visit friends and when conventions get back into full swing and I don't want to spend $300+ on a weekend hotel room. Bonus points for the van being actually smaller than my previous 2015 VW Passat when it comes to finding parking spaces. I do miss getting 46mpg, but the van has been averaging 31-33mpg on long interstate trips.

There are some downsides. Like the creepiness factor of owning a panel van as a large bearded guy, but most people warm up to it once I explain things. Also the commercial 7% interest on my financing plan. I'm used to financing around 1-3% interest on any car I've bought new, but at least in my state commercial vehicles carry a locked in interest rate.

Commercial trucks/vans also have shit for sound insulation so be prepared to do that yourself or pay a local stereo shop to quiet things down.

Other than that its hard to even find consumer cars with a manual transmission in my area, let alone a lack of electronic non-sense.

I used to pirate everything. Now it's easier to just pay for a subscription and get what I want in the highest quality ever. I will say though, I will never "buy" something digitally like on iTunes or whatever.
You're putting responsibility on individuals to enforce ethical behavior. This has two problems:

1. People don't have enough motivation, knowledge, and free time to find and keep track of which companies behave ethically. Also, people are generally selfish and will buy from unethical companies if it saves them money or time. (I did this yesterday.)

2. Liars deceive large groups of people and escape punishment or cause wrong punishment of a competitor.

In a modern society, we need people with specialized skills to do the work of holding companies accountable. We should train them, pay them, and hold them accountable for how they do their jobs. USA has a law forbidding US people from paying bribes to anyone anywhere in the world. The FBI enforces this law.

How about adding a law forbidding US people from discriminating in business based on political or religious affiliation? I think we don't have this because a lot of US people wish to run their businesses with bigotry. See the gay wedding cake controversy [0].

I pay for Netflix and pirate what is available on Netflix, because my local video player has much better hardware acceleration than web browsers, is more efficient and as a byproduct gives me better video quality.
Brotli was arguably designed specifically for the web, because it was originally used in the WOFF2 font format and also had a large amount of preset dictionary collected from the web (including HTML, CSS and JS fragments). Zstandard had no such consideration, and while it could be as efficient as Brotli with a correct dictionary it does have a less merit compared to Brotli in the web context.
First, most good trading, crypto or not, is systematic, which is automated.

Then, from what people have told me, crypto is a highly inefficient market so huge of potential for market-making strategies. Tons of arbitrage opportunities between the various venues, centralized and decentralized, mostly uninformed non-professionals so non-toxic flow, huge spreads, etc.
It's like the traditional tradi'g world but 30 years in the past.

"Grid trading" is apparently just a weird term for placing orders proactively on multiple levels to obtain a better queue position, useful for increasing edge capture on exchanges with price-time matching.
There are a lot more sophisticated techniques you could transfer from the world of traditional electronic trading. Of they're successful on much more competitive markets, no reason they wouldn't work on crypto.
Thinking about it some more, the surprising behavior here is pretty much just that it does the assignments in left-to-right order instead of right-to-left order. If you try and break down `a = b = expr` into a series of binary assignment operators, the natural answer is `a = (b = expr)` (b doesn't exist yet so you can't write `(a = b) = expr`) where `(b = expr)` behaves as though it returns the value again. And I believe this is in fact how it works in Ruby (as Ruby assignments return the value). But Python assignments don't actually return the value, as they are statements and not expressions.

Presumably Python does the assignments in left-to-right order because any observable side-effects in the evaluations of a and b would be expected to be in left-to-right order. It just results in counterintuitive behavior like this.
