Just out of curiosity, which new ones have you seen today? I’ve noticed ai images being included in parts of memes, but it’s mostly been as a replacement for low effort photoshopping.
My man, those “pills” are coming and they won’t be unique usage (like some Genie provides them).
But they wont be as blunt either, it will be rejuvenation of your retina, kidneys, liver, skin (that doesn’t mean you’ll look younger), back muscles, heart, etcetera.
If you have cancer type 352 and we got a “pill” to treat it (a treatment, with a high probability to fix it) will you take it and extend your life by 20 years?
We’re in a biotech revolution, not in a Santa Claus situation.
Check out D&Q the first senessent cell clearance treatment, it’s not that expensive.
Also, governments (except the USA it seems) will help getting everybody in good health, the economic benefits are enormous.
I’m so tired with this nonsense that only the rich will be getting it, it’s not true. Check out all other treatments, who are for the ultra rich only?
If you can reverse aging, will you only sell it to a bunch of billionaires, or to billions of people? Of course you’ll earn more money selling it to basically every human being on the planet.
Minusland is a dark, gloomy region far beneath the surface of the Earth, filled up entirely with fog, and inhabited only by the invisible and highly dangerous Gnoolies, creatures which, with a single bite, turn their victims into more Gnoolies
True, I just wanted to be more generic before going technical (this is very vague from a tech point of view so i was testing how the idea could be reacted)
Since it hasn't been mentioned yet, NoScript imo. Some sites run an absolutely absurd amount of scripts and the majority are not required for the site to function. So at best, there's no value from letting them run.
I could maybe see selectively-blacklisting particularly obnoxious websites
That’s what uBlock Origin already kinda does for you. It’s not just an adblocker, it also blocks tracking JavaScript from various sites as well as a bunch of other crap.
Mmmm…okay, but the parent comment I was responding to does have a point in that there are some benefits to blocking Javascript above and beyond just trying to deal with tracking. Like, if you’re on a laptop, there are sites that will burn a lot of CPU time – and hence battery life – doing nothing useful. Or, on an older machine, it can speed up page loading.
My issue is just that unless you’re going to turn it on yourself on a site-by-site basis, killing off Javascript breaks too much of the Web today. It was a viable option to just have on back when there was a meaningful portion of the world that didn’t have Javascript available and web developers designed pages to deal reasonably with its absence and you were willing to deal with flipping it off on specific sites to deal with the occasional breakage…but today, it’s a huge portion of the Web that doesn’t work without Javascript.
No don’t get me wrong. uBO doesn’t block all JavaScript. It has lists with individual scripts that are known to be used for ads or tracking, and these get blocked. All the other scripts load as usual. This already improves website load times and probably also battery life. Another interesting solution for reducing CPU load may be DNS based blocking. That way, the CPU is not impacted at all, the browser tries to load the script but it just silently fails, because the DNS records for the tracking and advertisement servers won’t be provided.
