I use it because otherwise I'd use ublock anyways. So it either does it thing and if not, it's the same result as ublock.

This feels like reverse psychology on a little kid.

"That's it, I'm not tracking you anymore! >:("
"Oooh nooo, what have I done! Oh how much I would wish to be tracked :("
"No, you won't convince me to change my mind >:("
"Oh well, guess I'll have to live without being tracked, what a shame that is."

In the short term, I would think so.

In the long run, it makes it less appealing for companies to advertise, because they would have larger costs while having less sales. That, in return, hurts Google as advertisers don't want to pay as much anymore. If 80% of all users used this extension, advertisers would have to pay more than ever, while having only 20% of all users can be reached (simplified, of course).

Or in short, it's designed to hurt the system as a whole, not specific companies.

I give donations, but way less than I'd like (less in terms of quantity of recipients, not the total financial quantity).

What I'd love (not only for FOSS, but also stuff like podcasts and other things I'm donating to regularly) would be a service where I can set a budget and select the software and tools I use and it splits it up automatically.

I don't mind donating, but I hate managing it, having dozens of small transactions for it, and I feel like I'm forgetting to donate to like 90+% of the stuff I'm using. Also, with payment provider's fees it's often not worth it to donate <1€ a month, so bundling transactions would be way more effective - for me as the user as well as the recipients who'd get one transaction once a month from said service rather than hundreds of small ones.

I never really understood why e.g. Patreon doesn't offer this. You can't expect perks with this because the perks probably will start higher than what's the breakdown of each recipient woild be at a reasonable budget, but the advantage would be that (mostly) everyone would get a piece of your cake, rather than like 5 of the 500 different creators/developers/... you're using content/software of. Also, you could reduce or increase the monthly budget depending on your financial situation, rather than cancelling or modifying dozens of small subscriptions.

Yeah, I assume if they took down Wikipedia itself then hundreds of copies would pop up all over the place, probably hosted elsewhere, and one of them would become the primary replacement over time.
Media might be lost to some extent, but I doubt there's any way you can take the text/information/metadata off the internet at all, and that's the most important aspect.

Falls ernstgemeinte Frage: Doch, natürlich gelten ausgeschilderte Limits auch für Radfahrer.

Es gibt Ausnahmen bei impliziten Limits (also nicht explizit zB mit "30" beschilderten Limits), zB gelten die innerörtlichen 50km/h ab Ortsschild nicht für Radfahrer. Andere implizite Limits wie Schrittgeschwindigkeit im verkehrsberuhigten Bereich wiederum aber schon.

Wouldn't be surprised if the kid playing on the mat would be part of the print as well.

Der einzige Typ, der das behauptet, ist nur leider derjenige, der das dort hochgeladen hat.

Oh - ja gut :D das hab ich nicht gesehen. Mein Fehler.

"vnnd ihro" ist ja mal eindeutig Schwachsinn.

Deshalb schrieb ich, dass es so klingen soll, nicht, dass es tatsächlich mittelalterliche Schreibweise ist.
Keine Ahnung, mag auch tatsächlich KI-Kauderwelsch sein, sah für mich nur gewollt so aus (zumindest wenn man sich nicht damit befasst, wie damals wirklich geschrieben wurde).

Heute ist eh Sonntag, da wird das Carsten gelassen.

Die Schreibweise ergibt keinen Sinn

Also wenn Du so was wie "Peßt" und = statt - meinst, das dürfte Absicht sein, um wie eine Mittelalterliche Schreibweise zu klingen.

Edit: Und nur ein einzelner dort behauptet, es sei von der KI, und das auch ohne zu nennen woran er das erkennt.
Es ist nicht unwahrscheinlich, aber davon überzeugt bin ich jetzt auch nicht.
