It's on the internet forever, but whatever the regular user needs is lost behind poor content indexing and incompetent search functions

The Hudson River is still icing NYC. There's still snow visible in the Times Square live cam on rooftops (as opposed to where workers have likely been shoveling for tourists relentlessly). Looks like it only hit 41F today and has seen single digits in the last week. The snow bands have been very narrow in this last storm surge.

So anyway, look a little further north for the snow. Despite the movie tropes, NYC is never really a winter wonderland.

And now that I see "ice coast" is the name for icy east coast ski slopes, I've found Camelback just claimed they have enough snow to last into May

It's fine. To add to it, I couldn't edit my own comment yesterday to highlight why I went in a different direction. Now I have. It's not the first time I've been called AI because I write lengthy things about topics in which I'm knowledgeable. Xkcd.com/3126

They slowly ditched better services for convenience. The account/login struggle is the barrier to entry that myspace/facebook/discord "solved". A unique login for each forum, a different set of rules between each, some auto-deletion of supposedly inactive accounts, no photo hosting capability until death bed, yet another set of credentials for the latest photo host, and so on. Nothing was immediate because it took time to build the replacement communities and libraries. The problem is, it took years to realize how inaccessible the information became.

The Horrors aren't real. It's just anxiety. On repeat. On repeat. On repeat. On repeat. On repeat. On repeat. On repeat. On repeat. Need therapy. Need therapy. On repeat. On repeat. On repeat. On repeat.

It's fine to highlight it's correlation, but your guess is a theory of causation. It's likely either some genetic combo that drives the desire for coffee or some lifestyle arrangement that drives the need.

Even the idea that an inactive mind leads to deterioration isn't definitively causation. Correlation goes both ways. Are they mentally healthy because they're mentally active? Or are they mentally active because they're mentally healthy? The degree of mental deterioration goes up as you age, which is also when you can retire, when you don't have to support your family, when you're physically incapacitated, and when you slow down overall. So yeah, I plan to stay active because I'll take my chances that it helps, but at some point, something will simply break. Maybe I'll inherit the dimentia. Maybe I'll inherit the neuropathy. Maybe both. Maybe neither.

That's the 3am bathroom mirror figure I see when walk by nightlight

I didn't say you or your question was stupid. I explained why that assumption isn't right

You're welcome to that interpretation. I saw no point adding a 20th version of the same answers everyone else focused on. I went after the opening statement.

as a human woman, which represents a greater imminent threat?

No. This is NOT the takeaway. The bear is clearly the statistically-imminent threat (let's say a brown bear to ensure it's hostile and deadly). The point is that you know exactly what the bear will try to do: kill you. You don't have to greet it, you don't have to worry about it's intentions, you don't have to worry that your social interaction may push the bear over the edge, you don't have to worry about hurting it's feelings and risk making it a threat, you don't have to worry about sending mixed signals, you don't have to worry about your clothing choice, and you certainly, certainly don't have to worry about it raping you without witnesses. It simply is a violent threat. You use bear spray and hope you can run far enough, fast enough. You don't get to make that immediate reaction to a man, between compassion for the innocent, societal pressure to not ostracize men, and legal repercussions if you get it wrong.

You've never come across something and view it out of curiosity? The algorithms love when you branch out like that.

You're being amazingly condescending to people being abused and guided by the algorithms, acting like you're above it. You're not. I actively fight these curated feeds with alternate private browsers and sometimes going as far as using a VPN just to see what something is about, yet it's not foolproof and there's a reason ti's their ein the first place. It's not just your viewing choices. It's clear that you get put into various categorizations and the algorithms keep your feed fresh by suggesting content that other people who watched the videos you watched have also watched. You think your science-based category is safe, but it's not. You're 3 clicks away from conspiracy theories flooding your feed by way of "here's how flat earthers explain gravity" because your chosen video, the bridge video, and the conspiracy videos are all using the same keywords. You're not noticing all the "harmless" unrelated suggested content from the games you don't play like Factorio, Stardew, Hollow Knight, No Man's Sky, or Star field but it's there, just as predatory, seeing where you'll bite. The overlapping keywords and viewerships are there. It's exactly the same situation.

This category association is how people get drawn into deep, dark corners. This is how segmented conspiracy groups converge. This is how the manosphere becomes an echo chamber. This is how self-harm and self-hate content puts someone in a hole by themselves. So many users aren't even aware of how curated their feed is. They come to believe "everyone thinks this" because there's 100 videos sitting there waiting for them to "freely" choose their next clip.

You're acting morally superior without an actual understanding of what these platforms are designed to do. They do not give a fuck about your health or morals. All they want is your attention, your addiction, because time spent on their platform is participation taken away from 20 other major platforms.
