100%

If instead of changing the clocks we staggered working hours or even just (crazy thought) offered flexibility with start and finish times it would also massively ease pressure on infrastructure like roads and public transport.

We spend so much money trying to get capacity to a point thats only needed for like 2-4 hours per day

    It's not about infinite growth.

    Given that not everyone lives to old age, we would expect children to outnumber old people even in a zero (or slightly negative) percent growth scenario.

    See I keep reading this, especially here on Lemmy but since owning one, I've had more frequent updates than I think any phone I've previously owned, and definitely more than family who go with bigger brands.

    I don't know why they have this reputation, perhaps it was true in the past

    There was also a series of videos at his own new house where he's getting the LMG employees to work on things for him at his house.

    The power dynamic felt super off like he's rubbing his wealth in their (and our) faces. I'm not mad that he built a business, is doing well and got a nice house with his family. I would have been happy for his success, but the whole vibe of making that into content made it feel uncomfortable to watch. It felt more like he wanted to show off than it being about the tech.

    That, and the way he reacted to various scandals including the one you mentioned was extremely poor and his disingenuous reviews, I had to drop them, the list just kept growing.

    It's a shame because I liked a lot of the content and I really like Riley, James and the other staff as presenters but my heart sinks any time Linus' face appears again in my feed.
