I had to read the whole article to get to this info: Depending on what Chrome version you’re using, and whether you’ve been selected to start using Topics API, you can switch this functionality off and on by visiting chrome://settings/adPrivacy and/or chrome://settings/privacySandbox – cut’n’paste these URLs into your address bar to jump straight to the controls.

This was awesome! I got so invested in the story! You landed on a goldmine with this one!

I went in for seconds and landed here: http://firedrake.org/roger/csarchive/universe/states.htm This is sooo cool and I don’t even know what it is! Has anyone heard of Crimson Skies computer game??

Its premise seems to be that America failed. The link took me to the write-ups of what happened to the states. Example: “Montana and Wyoming have largely fragmented. All government is local, and the locals seem determined to keep it that way. The population is completely disgusted with national government and aims to show that local government can perform far better than any distant bureaucracy. Portions of Wyoming and Montana have been claimed by other states, but by and large this is the most lawless and best armed stretch of the West.”
Another: “The bulk of Nevada is desert, not even worth the effort of laying claim to. Most of the inhabitants southeast of the Sierra Nevadas are desert air pirates, scrub ranchers, and rattlesnakes.”

Not gonna lie…it got me at Air Pirates!

Whelp, I never used those things anyway.

I think Reddit will die a slow and painful death. I was a mid to average Redditor (I occasionally posted content and consistently engaged with posts), and I have no interest in being over there anymore for many reasons. I migrated over here and am currently living in a tent, waiting for my permanent “Boost” house to be built. I like what I see here so far and am looking to develop a different experience. I don’t need to see people getting eaten by sharks anymore. I plan on reading more books and being online significantly less. I’m seeking quality, not quantity. I’m done with sensory overload.
