just to add on to what folks have said, here's a specific example:
You copy a YouTube link and send to a friend. The link ends with &sid=12345678
Youtube knows who you are and it knows who your friend is. When it creates the link it knows "Linktank created link 12345678"
When your friend opens the link, now YouTube knows "this person has some relation to Linktank."
With this YouTube can find out who you know and what you share with each other, without you ever having to tell them directly. Whether that's something you're ok with is up to you.
I'm really struggling to figure this one out. I'm leaning AI myself but idk. I hate the constant questioning of if everything online is real now it fucking sucks. I want to be able to see a cool photograph and go "hey that's cool" and move on
Gotcha, it's another anti-European (and anti-USA), anti-male, quasi-Marxist organization. This is what your donations to Wikipedia are going to. Wikipedia spends more money on left-wing causes than actually running an encyclopedia, and by a very long-shot.
I have enjoyed the hell out of Riders Republic. One big issue is that it is cram packed with cosmetics, DLC and "live-service" features. If you're able to ignore that noise there is a lot of game to love underneath. Of course you can't really own it, since it's live-service, but I still feel I got well more than $40 of fun out of it
I've played it! It's more arcade-y than the base game. The maps are small and focused, with more of a focus on the events and curated slopes than exploration. It's a little clunky IMO, but still very fun.
