That sounds like more work than just putting the cart back...

There should be a requirement for cart return spots next to the handicap parking. In places where there is a return 10 feet from the spots I still see a ton of carts in the parking spots.

I get that it can be hard, but it seems way too frequent that they could do the whole store but just couldn't make that last 10 feet. Like sure, occasionally that is inderstandable.

So I will judge them while also grabbing the cart and either using it or putting it away because that is the right thing to do.

That's fine. I will either continue to use adblockers, pay, or stop using the internet outside of what is required to function in society. I already refuse to use anything that has decided to go ad supported without the ability to block ads and has a price I'm not willing to pay.

If small (or large) businesses require the mass collection of personal information by malicious advertisers to exist, then they don't derserve to exist.

Yes, OP said all advertising. You mentioned the main problems with ditching all advertising. I added to the conversation with a poasible middle ground that addressed the worst parts.

Targeted advertising, which requires collecting personal information without people's knowledge, is what makes online advertising the absolute worst kind of advertising. That could be addressed on a way that could allow other less malicious forms to exist.

Any change just for the sake of change will be detrimental to the functionality. Constant change means there is never a point in time where the overall functionality can be reviewed for stability.

That's a fish, not a dinosaur!

Now a goose, that is a fine dinosaur.

A swiping motion and muscle memory for tapping are two different things. It took a while to get fast with my thumbs even though I type fairly fast on a keyboard.

PSA = Pirate Service Announcement?

but then in the recommended section it does not show someone who actually knows shit about fitness and steroids etc how would they know.

It is kind of funny that you think the recommendations would be informative instead of some shill peddling the same "you can do it with 5000 calories and exercise" bullshit. A rabbit hole is going further down the same hole.

It isn't about people better than you. It is about idealized and generally unrealistic body standards.

The new guidelines, now introduced in the UK and around the world, apply to content that: idealises some physical features over others, such as beauty routines to make your nose look slimmer; idealises fitness or body weights, such as exercise routines that encourage pursuing a certain look; or encourages social aggression, such as physical intimidation.

These are not videos about getting to a healthy weight and exercise routine. "Certain look" is a crappilly phrased way of saying unrealistic body standards, but that is what it means.
