Quoting: Sol-tari It featured the baby boomers making a deal with man/bear/pig - a deal with the devil if you will. Anywho - time had come due for payment. Interesting. I started season 19 but I'm thinking South Park might just not be something I can enjoy sitting through. The vid you provided put it together nicely.

Quoting: Seer777 We carry it around in our pockets. We wear it on our wrists. We devote more than 10.5 hours a day to screen time. Facebook has conducted experiments on us that show how susceptible we are to mind control. In 2012, the company secretly tampered with the news feeds of nearly 700,000 people, manipulating the ratio of emotionally positive to emotionally negative posts, then monitoring the subsequent activity of those users. What they found is that emotions can be remotely controlled and are highly contagious on the platform. People who saw more unhappy posts showed more unhappy activity and vice versa. Many questioned the experiment’s legality and ethics, wondering if Facebook had triggered any suicides. Facebook apologized for the way the experiments were conducted and promised to conduct them “differently” in the future, with enhanced review. [link to www.wired.com (secure)] People are very easy to control using emotional triggers disguised as positive reinforcement, and the susceptibility to echo chamber in social media, is terrifying. World of Warcraft utilized this same methodology when when they changed the word 'unrested' to 'normal' and 'normal' to 'rested'.

Seer777 (OP) Ride the wings of the mind User ID: 77080859 United States 11/20/2018 01:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It is not a feel good show that is for sure. Most episodes left me with a disturbed feeling at the end. I still rate it as a quality show and would recommend it to others who like trippy shit. Exactly. When I want to escape into Netflix or its like, it is not to make myself feel worse. I'm really particular at what I'll allow myself to look at and view. I don't think I even finished 3 episodes. Someone told me to watch Nosedive directly and that was the only reason I looked for it. Little did I know at the time.. I often watch the same things over and over because I know they're safe.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 7666537 Canada 11/20/2018 02:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I paused Daredevil show series on Netflix a short while ago. Now almost to last show of season 3. The Daredevil limited series by Frank Miller was among some first comic books I read as kid. Imagine if those Daredevil series on Netflix were on shelf in a video store during 1990s... the experience would be more awesome. All I gotta get in and pay about $4.00 (Honestly, I forgot) for like two shows and I'd get thrown in a free bag of popcorn. Or rent horror and sci-fiction movies, in 3 movies for almost same price. Its weird.. I was more eager to watch almost any kind of movies in 90s but not same as now. The experience of watching and reading in 90s was... Rich. |

How many times did you go to the video store and leave empty handed after 20 minutes? Now they're nearly all gone. Amazon is pretty good at titles for rent, but not everything is there.
