I don't think you understand what "voting with your wallet" means, because it's exactly what you are doing when you choose to order online rather than buy locally for any reason. It doesn't matter if that reason is price, convenience, merchandise selection, political views, or anything else. You are choosing which business receives your financial support, and will therefore be more successful. That is fundamentally what voting with your wallet is.
And if you don't think that people choosing to spend their money online rather than at a local retailer is a problem, then why are you complaining about it?

Something about a beast named DCLXVI ? Dacelixovius the bigfoot?

AI has to get in line behind my flying car.
MAYBE machine intelligence will surpass humans in some ways, but where the hell do we get this idea that they’ll decide we’re unstable and wipe us out? Sci Fi? Do we get it from anything RATIONAL?
Your subject line holds the answer: Maybe the idiot futurists really are in danger of being surpassed by machines!
They just haven't figured out that the rest of us aren't idiots too.
