I’m kind of sick of being into tech. Everything is riddled with ads and speculative investment. You have to manage your expectations so much because everything has a good likelihood of turning into garbage at a moments notice. It’s just not fun anymore. I know I’m probably a bit nostalgia blinded, but I miss the mid-late 2000s and early 2010s so much. Games were new and interesting, tech was moving at a lightning fast pace, things were fun.

I know it’s more complicated than that, and there are reasons things are how they are, but fuck man. Anyway, off my chest.

    Wikipedia would be a good example against you argument. I can find out details of the reign of Caesar Augustus as well as how many valence electrons are on a carbon atom. Neither of those is in vogue nor particular money makers and I know exactly where to find the info just by searching Wikipediea. Additionally, all the sources are linked so I can go down a rabbit hole on any deeper version of the topic if I want.

      You listed one of the most popular historical figures, by far, and some physics/chemistry, which I can assure you is involved in making enormous amounts of money, as someone in the nanotechnology field.

      Try finding actually legitimate information regarding Tartaria.
