TIL. But I'd like to know what exactly the damage was?

Now I'm wondering if all the problems I had with DS4s is related to Sony doing shady shit.

I still have a DS4 which will sometimes work via Bluetooth and sometimes not.

Probably more effective than any of the suggestions so far:

Make sure you are well hydrated and do some exercise or at the very least a long or high-energy walk.

Why not Firefox? That plus uBlock Origin = pleasant browsing.

Search Engine wise - I use a mixture depending on what kind of thing I'm after. Need to try out SearxNG though.

But the end result is the platform influences voters leading to election of those or similar individuals.

That's not really true, unfortunately. People don't need to be in an elected position to be given a platform by media.

So, the societal problem is created when bad faith actors are given a platform, right? But bad faith actors tend to be great at generating outrage and division and thus drive engagement and clicks - which makes money for the platforms.

How do we solve this?

Depends whether you're parents/family have made the magic of Christmas or the presents the focus. My kids certainly would care; I did too.

The meme is about saving oxygen, not reducing CO² emissions.

I don't know whether it had a significant impact in Russia, but the rest of the world only knows/cares about the guy because he went back. Otherwise he'd just be yet another person murdered by Putin's regime.

Martyrdom. Navalny knew what it would mean to return; he also knew the risk of not returning (constantly trying to avoid shitty assassination attempts with collateral damage).

I personally subscribe to the When The Yoghurt Tookover eventuality.
