I think it would matter if these simulations existed if we could interact outside or between them somehow.

We don't need to model reality, only people's perception of it.

I don't know about ya'll, but from my perspective, the simulation would only have to simulate my world.

You all might not even exist.

I genuinely hate new things and most change at this point.

I don't think it's me getting old. I think I was raised differently than most of my peers and exposed to how previous generations actually fought for their rights instead of rolling over and taking it up the ass.

Most of my peers are dumb as shit and have no concept of how much businessmen are taking advantage of them. If someone tells them to buy something, they'll buy it.

It could be you're running out of RAM.

You could try typing free or free -h in a terminal to see how much RAM you're using. If you see swap as 0, then it means you don't have it set up or enabled.

I don't want to waste time explaining swap space if that's not your issue, but if it is then you can probably figure it out with some searching or come back for help once you've confirmed that RAM is the problem.

Consumers will take up the slack on climate change.

That would involve killing our rulers and the conpeople we keep electing.

It's the only way anything will change.

Everyone cheering for this will see no benefit from it.

Rubes.

I dunno, I realized a long time ago this is just a business for the people engaging in it.

Of course they're making more money than they need and are partying as much as possible with it.

I assume you're using a "smart" TV.

Those things only exist to take power away from you. You should hook up a PC or laptop to your TV with a wireless keyboard and mouse so you're not being herded by techbros.

I didn’t mind paying a fiver but had to do it via the moon to get it cheap but now they have stopped that.

Useful idiot mentality. They're charging you that money to maximize profit, not because it's necessary to provide the service.

Your "fivers" are paying for their nicer campuses, executive bonuses, and lavish business trips/vacations. Analysts also use it as an excuse to charge more, since the data shows that people like you are "happy/proud" to get ripped off.

I wish proles were smarter and a bit more mean so they could better recognize how they're being taken advantage of and how often they support their oppressors.

Too many of you go along with getting taken for a ride because you want to fit in and avoid conflict. Businessmen take advantage of that mentality every day.

Bro just use a laptop.

That's literally the audience these "boutique" phones are for.
