Concurrent: at the same time - if you eat two cookies at the same time you're eating them concurrently. Cumulative: accumulating/growing over time - If you eat a cookie now and eat a cookie later you've cumulatively eaten 2 cookies. Bonus points: wouldn't it have been a lot easier to google 'define:' than to make a post here to get other people to answer for you? You'd get the answer a lot quicker the other way, too.

Jackbox. Each one has several party games, everybody can play on their phone, and it's lots of fun while being fairly simple.

Because light is affected by gravity but gravity isn't. Gravity—the curvature of space-time—can't stop changes in the curvature of spacetime from propagating outward. But also that information isn't coming from inside the event horizon, it's coming from spacetime around it.

That'd be a hell of a thing. I'm with you on that one. Too bad this country is by, for, and about the rich and we don't really.. do consequences for the rich.

No, I use duckduckgo which is powered by Bing's API. Hence why I said other privacy-focused search engine.

I looked at it briefly, the only free option I saw was 100 free searches, which will not last your average user anywhere near 30 days. Shit that might not last me 3 days depending on what I'm doing.

No, but companies are made of individual people who get more or less greedy with time, like most other attributes of people. Which is why I said 'people got greedy'.

Capitalism - and I am the last person to defend it - didn't used to be like this, or at least not as bad. shrug I could probably tolerate capitalism if, say, no company was allowed to employ more than say 15 people.

Streaming was different for years and years. But then people got greedy.

They want the old cable TV days, but worse, and filling their pockets instead.

There's a word for that: enshittification

Netflix will what now? Sorry, I was busy canceling my netflix account.

Kidding, I canceled it ages ago when the $10 version became SD-only with ads.}

Why do we keep paying people like this to enshittify everything?
