Hell, why even have organic search results at all? Just rank results by how much each site owner is willing to bribe pay. A protection racket for the 21st century.

“That’s a nice website you’ve got there. It’d be a shame if it got no visitors.”

This right here is a vivid illustration of my reasons for preferring to work with low voltage (and current). Impressive though.

Clearly those cartridges must’ve been made by some merry band of maritime robbers. You know, the kind of criminals who’d force you to give them your money, but give you nothing of proportional value in return.

“Just think about it lads! Not only can we live in a place that’ll kill us on the cellular level, but we can wear theatrical facepaint - don’t ask where we’re getting a steady supply of that - like a 24/7 Kiss revival concert! It’ll be awesome! There’ll be matching top hats for everyone. Millinery is a real growth industry in here. Mind the mercury.”

But other than that, it looks fun enough.

Well, that’s true. It’s driving us all straight into the ground at velocities more typically associated with railgun development or orbital mechanics.

I’m fine right here, thanks. Although I’d been using Reddit for some time at that point, I permanently left Digg as part of the Great Exodus. I don’t see any particular appeal to going back to a centralized service, especially in the current climate.
