Technically, three of these are really just "the ancients."

In situations like this, it's best to remember why dead languages are dead: Nobody speaks these languages anymore because everyone kept accidentally casting spells!

They created golems powered by compressed air instead of magic.

Definitely marking this down in my mental, "in case of Isekai" notes.

Humans need to evolve much higher fevers so we can extrude it out of our ears/nose or somethin. Then we could squirt out sporks as the ultimate party trick 👍

Marmite crumpets shouldn't exist!

What other cosmic horrors are you creating in your kitchen‽

The religious coalition behind the petition owns about $172 million in shares of the five companies.

OK so basically nothing. Those companies combined are worth hundreds of billions. Maybe even over one trillion in total.

Walmart alone has a market cap of $558 billion.

They didn't say it was a man-made pyramid. It could be the naturally occurring kind. Example:

Rough times when you're forced to go at a sketchy gas station 😖

This might not necessarily be the case for much longer with storage costs finally reaching certain thresholds.

2TB SSDs only cost ~$100 and you can cram a lot of SSDs into a tiny space with only a minimal amount of cooling (still need a fan but just a fan).

The next bottleneck to overcome is upload bandwidth. Too many providers offer asynchronous service with weirdly low/slow upload limitations. However, that too might be changing over the next few years as DOCSIS 4.0 supports 10Gbit down/6Gbit up (DOCSIS 3.1 only supported ~1Gbit up). An important note about DOCSIS 4.0 is that in order to take advantage of it's improved features (on the ISP end) you need to provide more upload bandwidth to the client (well, you can still cap it at the router but at that point the ISP is just being an asshole instead of actually "managing bandwidth").

How is "Business and Financial" not the #1 category? I work in finance and it's so painfully obvious that for every employee that actually does real work on a day-to-day basis there's at least 10 that don't do anything at all. Not even, "this work is not meaningful." I mean, they literally don't do anything; they keep chairs warm and write emails explaining why everything isn't their problem or they stare at every free slot in their calendar every Monday and find ways to micro manage the people that work under them (getting in the way of those people actually doing real work).

I see memes about construction crews where one guy is digging a ditch and there's three other guys hanging back doing nothing and I can't help but think, "that's actually a pretty good ratio!"

Anyone who thinks "big government" is inefficient obviously never worked for a big bank. The regulators assigned to banks are far more on top of things and turn in vastly more real work than 90% of bank employees. In fact, nearly everything in banking and finance is fully automated (when it comes to moving money around, calculating interest, figuring out if someone can get a loan, etc) that at every quarterly shareholder meeting the only ideas that are ever shared in regards to "making more money" are about cutting costs by finding ways to "run leaner" (aka laying more people off).
