While I think a lot of people agree with you, this is a real unpopular opinion to me. I love capsule shapes and large radii. I like my ui to feel soft, not pointy. shrug
Rounded corners do create a lot of opportunity to implement it poorly, though. I see a lot of rounded corners that aren't concentric, or worse, are inconsistently rounded (For example, I'm extremely irritated by some US highway road signs where the border is rounded but the square corners are left on)
I think I agree with most of the comments in this thread, but I feel like your #2 is actually an unpopular opinion! I don't think I've interacted with a scrollbar in the past decade, and the only purpose is to see where on the page I am, which doesn't feel very important. (something like a pdf viewer where that matters should have a proper page preview anyway)
So I don't really need scrollbars at all, and I'm glad they aren't adding visual clutter.
(although I'm pretty sure you should be able to force scrollbars to be visble, at least on browsers)
Don't forget the year glasses! Although those peaked in the 2000s (with a resurgence in 2020)
Are recommendations based on the "watch history" list, or just your actual watch history? I doubt they are just disregrding data they have on you just because you remove it from the ui.
I think the best of youtube has been pretty consistent, it's just that there's exponentially more crap (and the algorithm wants you watching crap).
For games, I do agree that most AAA games are not very good, but we are in a golden age of indie gaming. There are so many amazing games being released constantly it's overwhelming.
These are all smaller games that I've enjoyed playing on my steam deck, none of them are online multiplayer focused though:
Inscryption
Celeste
Crypt of the Necrodancer
Spelunky
Bad North
Carrion
Death's Door
Anything emulated
I choose 1 and either learn echolocation, or get a fancy implant that does it for me.
Although if 1 is instantaneous and you have perfect control of the power, you could probably avoid others seeing you by flickering really fast. I bet there's an optimal pulse width and frequency where you would be effectively invisible to people while still being able to see enough. A high speed camera would still catch you though.
Maybe not that unknown, but:
Vimium - lets you control the browser by keyboard. It uses vim keys for navigation, but I think it's useful for non vim users too because it also has a mode that adds text 'hints' for all the links on the page so you can click them by typing (I'm not describing it well so just check it out)
Personally, panpsychism makes sense to me. Our brains are what make us thinking individuals with memories etc, but the whole universe is conscious. So after we die, we return to pure awareness (without thought or memory)
Well it will be fine even if you only leave it charging a tiny fraction of the times you use it. And with AAs you have to remember to change them anyway or it will die while you're playing.
And if you think the process of:
opening the back cover, taking out the AAs (especially on the original steam controller), putting them in a charger, and putting new ones back in the controller
is even close to as easy as just setting the controller down on a magnetic charger, I don't know what to tell you.
I really like this.
I think most people have heard the "you need to work on yourself first" advice, which just feels unhelpful.
And I've always felt that people calling themselves "king" or "queen" is them being narcissistic.
But this advice nicely reframes both of those things into a really good mindset.
