Lol, of course, right after I put my deck on eBay
This is a very non scientific answer, but when I was a kid (good 40 years ago) I remember having a science book that called TV static "an echo of the big bang". I guess that would mean just randomly scattered energy bouncing around on all bands?...
I could probably Google it and give you an answer, but I'll just wait for someone with a more convincingly and authoritatively written reply.
That hall of fame Reddit thread where a guy announced he will try heroin just one time, then comes back to explain how the experience was and how he will try again. Over the course of many posts we see persons entire life unravel as other posters scream of the top of their lungs for him to stop.
Never figured if it was real or scripted, but hella effective.
eBay has become the place for scalpers to sell overpriced wares, after they emptied store shelves. From toilet paper to graphics cards, that's where the buyout stock, sell for profit happened.
Now even without shortages, this philosophy persists at eBay. Nothing to lose for them, free money to make on uninformed buyers.
Worst case they end up not selling and can possibly return items for full refund.
Scummery at it's finest
It's amazing how people convinced themselves they need all these platforms in their lives. Meta, X, TikTok, YouTube - they can do whatever they want to their users, and the users just take it.
I've learned to drop social media platforms as soon as they pull shit I'm uncomfortable with and live a happy life, somehow.

Wikipedia and Archive.org are two of the most fantastic projects in existence. Their contributions to humanity rival NASA imho.

Love the idea, but just to be the devil's advocate, I think it will just mask garbage videos. Currently, the clickbait thumbnails and titles are an indicator to blacklist a channel, without having to waste time watching it.
Don't ever quit.
Screw that. Quitting is healthy, quitting is good. Nothing worse than digging yourself deeper and deeper based on sunk cost fallacy.
Oh great, more consolidation and monopoly building.
The one where the zoom animation plays several times in quick succession? Yea, I get that bug too. Very annoying.
