While I’m completely disinterested in football, and I do think the craze is often more than a bit much, this is just overly reductionist. Does everything one cares about and finds fun/interesting necessarily need to have intrinsic value? I’d say no.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why have we as a society just accepted the increasingly blinding bright lights of cars?
3·29 days agoOf course bad designs overheating the leds do lead to some cars models (and brands) burning out their LED’s, but as a general statement its still true.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•If shoelaces always come untied and headphone wires always get tangled, why don't they make shoelaces out of headphone wires and headphone wires out of shoelaces?

There’s one way for a cable to be untangled, and an incalculable amount of ways for it to be tangled. When letting it randomly change state it is very improbable for it to randomly end up in the untangled state.
Same for shoelaces, there is but a few ways for the shoes to be properly knot, and a comparatively essentially infinite ways for them not to be.
I know it’s a joke, but I find this perspective fascinating.

I disagree, lots of things are much cheaper and worse.
Clothes are much cheaper and far worse. Power tools are generally a lot cheaper bit also built to break.
Houses are somehow more expensive AND lower quality though.

it’s nice that they manage to have that for users like you without impacting users like me :)
I blow through 300 in less than a week.
Yes I’m happy with it. Kagi has AI features but I haven’t seen them, everything is opt-in. pushing that on me would be a deal breaker.
