Pokemon GO hit it uses the real Pokemon battling mechanics in all battles (including wild encounters) instead of the dumbed down system currently in use. Catching and even monetization can remain the same.

But unfortunately even YT premium doesn't solve some of the reasons (Shorts, "featured" content, etc.) why YT is so frustrating to use.

The increasing tech-ification of (all) cars played a role in reducing how much I want a car. Now I'm yearning for the simplicity and visceral feel of a motorcycle, and I will give in to these temptations soon.

Not all parents really choose to live in a place like Florida. Sometimes they have to go where the jobs are. Maybe they can't afford a place like California. And remember there are more people in Florida who voted for Biden than in Massachusetts.

I'm sorry, but this is ridiculous. These high school graduates from Florida didn't choose to live in Florida. They didn't choose to be educated this way. So not letting them into universities is discrimination and will only make things worse. If they were let into universities, they could see how Florida taught them wrongly.

I don't think this will quite happen. People will lose their minds if they need to pay a subscription to use the OS that comes with their newly purchased laptops.

+1 to the last part.

I hate that you can be perpetually paying a company, but you also are still the product. I'm pretty sure it's like this with just about every subscription.

Gotta be in the right direction for creators though. If they cut 1/3 of creators revenue I'll never consider premium again.

F*ck no. I was finally seriously considering buying YT premium for Google not f**king anything up in the past few months, bringing back sort by oldest, and knowing I'm not part of the anti AdBlock trial to make their anti AdBlock efforts less effective.

I've already gotten a helmet so far and I'm looking at other gear. What brands and price ranges would you recommend for someone on a budget (I'm paying ~$2000 for my first motorcycle)?

Nice! I don't really want to start on a heavy bike though, as all I've experienced are pedal powered bikes before and I want to get used to the weight.

That's why I'm thinking of starting with a used 250! Perfect for around the city and the occasional excursion into the twisties on the way to a day hike.
