People, corporations, and other entities would over time gather more data about you. There’s always some kind of information footprint that you leave behind. And you’d stand out from other humans by the way you talk (i.e. using slang from 200 years ago, and speaking about historic stuff with details that the general public is not aware of) and other traits, which makes you traceable.
You’d procrastinate things for 100s of years, until at one point you’re simply no longer able to do it. Wanted to domesticate a saber-tooth cat some day? Too bad, they’re extinct now. Wanted to visit the baths in ancient Rome? Well, it is not the same Rome anymore, and all the baths’ floors are cold.
Does Element X run directly on X now, without electron?
It will likely also depend on where you live, i.e. city vs rural area.
Sorry for the late answer. Somehow I got a bad case of demo effect.
For example, under this video I’m getting recommendations such as:
If only it was limited to TikTok. YouTube always recommends me those right shit videos, just because I’m german. (And no, it’s not personalization. I’ve turned that off, and it seems to work, YouTube doesn’t recommend me anything similar to the stuff that I actually watch.)
And if I didn’t know that and how those right populists want to manipulate me, I would have long been radicalized already. There are just too many gullible people. Ads work for them, classical populism works for them, they give nigerian princes their money, they believe in superstition, why would anyone think voters were suddenly at least borderline resistent against populism?
Regular expressions in general, and automata theory, sure you should know about that. But a specific extended regex language like here? That’s like saying you’re shit at coding if you can’t do <insert arbitrary programming language here>.
