I think the popularity of tamagotchis in the 90's disproves that statement.

I just can't be bothered listening to tracks I don't like, especially in this day and age where I don't have to swap CDs/tapes to listen to a track from a different artist.

This is how I feel about all bands/artists...they may have a one or two songs that I like and the rest of their discography is not something I want to listen to at all.

They absolutely did. I used to pirate all my media 20 years ago, but then streaming became so convenient and relatively cheap that I just didn't bother with it anymore.

Now, they've pretty much pushed me back out to sea with their ever increasing prices and decreasing content that's worth watching. I'm not paying $15-20 per service, when they insist on fragmenting it to hell so I'd need 3-4 subscriptions to watch the things I want.

I've never lifted a weight and none of my t-shirts fit either...not from raging muscles though.

Likely skilled labour in the beginning so they can intervene and drive/manoeuvre if necessary, and as the tech matures just "button pushers" in the truck, then remote with a single person managing several trucks.

Their bad faith headline is costing them clicks.

Unfortunately it is still a clear net positive for them. Despite some of us actively pushing back against it, most people just click to read.

Buying a burner sim would bypass this though, shouldn't be too hard.

Why the Clickbaity headline, CNBC?

You clicked it and read the article, so it worked as intended. As long as this shit works, they will continue to do it.

He now runs a beet farm/B&B with his cousin.

Well that's a big ol' "whoosh" on me then 😅

That does sound more like a user issue than a software issue though
