Modern cheats for multiplayer games don't modify local files (or attribute values in memory), since the server validates everything anyway. They're about giving you information that's available but not shown in the game (like see-through walls, or exact skill ranges), or manipulate input (dodge enemy damage, easy combos). Those cheat can run in kernel mode (or at least evade detection from user mode), so the anti-cheat needs kernel mode to be more effective.

"If I can't have zero genocide then I don't care to vote against the candidate that is very likely to be even worse."

Especially with only two candidates with a chance of winning, a vote doesn't mean unconditional support for everything that candidate wants. Sucks, but if you want to make your wishes known more specifically, you have to do more than just vote (if even that) and complain on the internet.

It's usually pretty easy to tell which new theories can be discarded because they don't explain all the observations that lead us to the dark matter theory in the first place (like e.g. the Bullet Cluster). Or it would be easy if media wasn't full of uncritical clickbait fluff pieces like this that rather make sensationalist claims than contextualizing how a new study fits into the existing science.

Audiobooks have a simple workaround if you can find a version of the book in text format to download, just index that.

Calibre can create a full text index to search through everything (well, for files that actually contain the text, and it needs a lot of space).

"Free speech" just means "I want to spout garbage without pushback (like fact checking) or consequences."

https://github.com/laylavish/uBlockOrigin-HUGE-AI-Blocklist is supposed to remove AI slop from the results of various search engines. Wants the uBlacklist browser addon though.

How does that help disempower the fossil fuel mafia?

Since they don't seem to care about it, start using "tweet" for every social media post to devalue them further.

Why aren't those clowns laughed out of the room as soon as they open their mouths?

Look for the Big Dipper, left of it about the direction of its handle and twice the handle's length. https://stellarium-web.org/ for more details.

We haven't solved the "disposal" question of using fossil fuels, and those turned out (or were known along) to cause much bigger problems.
