5 giants sites, all owned by the same capitals.
Capitalism innovates then monopolizes.

It's definitely still social interaction, you're communicating with other people, that's social.

We have a whole lot more ancestors who didnt survive any of those. We made the race!

We all share one female ancestor and one male ancestor, though they never met each other. Mitochondrial Eve and Chromosomal Adam.
So technically we're all cousins.

I feel like this is where the ai comes and helps us out a little bit more. The ai would help to sparse the information quickly to find good sources within the organized mess that is the internet.

Instead they only offer opinions.

It’s actually the avoidance of socialization. Life involves being around other people.
It’s normalized in modern society, so people view it as social, but it truly is not a social experience. The only way it would be is if you use it to compliment an in person meeting, like…use facebook to invite a group to a party.

I'm the end of the line.
No kids now, no kids ever, sister was murdered at 12, no other siblings, parents both too old for more.

Do people shop for clothes they like because they hate themselves or they like the clothes? Do they get a haircut they like because they hate themselves? This is a bunk take that’s more revealing than you intended, OP.

Reply to Considering the size and age of the universe, there must have been a situation where atoms moved in a way so they recreated the shrek movie in 1920x1080 quality somewhere. by Rat_Ramsay
No, but every second there is a chance that just because of entropy, atoms fuse into a brain with the knowledge and memories that you have right now, so everything you have lived could perfectly be some atoms in line and that 10 seconds after it, they just move into another position

The best way to use the internet is to use it to get information from quality sources.
Online articles with no sources from dime a dozen websites are not quality sources.
Oh and just a quick pro tip. If you are looking for information about when a show or movie comes out, any article that has the words "release date" in the title do not have the release date in the article. At best they will be making a poorly educated guess.
