So you want that community to change because you don’t like it.

It looks everyone else is fine with it. So you got two options: block it on your end, and / or make your own the way you want.

I understand this is not what you expected, but just because you don’t like something doesn’t mean it needs to change just for you.

Btw there’s a reason that people don’t like to hear often: we do not have reddit numbers, and therefore if you do not allow reposts from reddit, a lot of communities would be basically dead.

Pretty sure they used a master ball to catch him and he is weak to ground type attacks.

“are you sure you don’t want any food?”

Maybe too many eggs in one basket

I mean he did go off the deep end but it seems he’s taking a different route now.

Have you considered that most people like an accurate reflection of how people think about your opinion? They don’t want you to shut up, they want you to understand your opinion is unpopular and confront you with that.

There’s a big difference between an opinion that’s unpopular and an opinion that’s actively damaging or inciting. One is worth a discussion, the other is actively stifling discussion in various ways.

I don’t think I agree if I read this correctly. I’ll specific as to how I understand it.

If I have opinion a, and that’s the majority opinion, and any other opinion gets censored, I think I’m fine with that. Hard disagree. I wanna expose myself to nuance and other opinions. Of course there’s a time and place when people hate you for nuance and specific opinions but censorship implies a legal framework and enforcement. Sure, there’s a lot of majority opinions I hold but I don’t want other opinions to get censored or punished on most topics. I wanna hear and learn new things.

Example of something I want censorship on: if someone just repeats NS dog whistles in a clear attempt to instigate, I think it might be good to censored them / punish them in some way. Not in a murderer way, but in a “do you know what you’re saying and can you grasp what it means?” way.

Example of something I don’t want censorship on: opinions political or societal systems. In fact I love discussing different ones, what they bring to the table, how they worked in practice and how they are bad so we can tweak them. On fact I invite people to tell me how capitalism itself is awesome, so we can discuss what we feel needs to be part of a healthy society and maybe we come up with novel ideas.

I guess if you wanna say “there’s some censorship that’s good” I might actually agree but that’s way more of a narrow statement than what you’re saying here.

Damn they’re good

I use AI quite a bit for when I have to deal with something again that doesn’t have a simple documentation or stack overflow / reddit thread, and I know all too well I will never need agentic anything.

The one most useful AI for coding is supermaven, which is literally just auto complete plus but it doesn’t just do things, it works like any other tab completion.

Pretty sure no software dev at windows has ever really given these things a proper workout and still found them essential. Windows is really out here advertising Linux.

I have to say one thing though: you have every right to be pissed that this is what your tuition money is used for.

But that’s kind of a different conversations and generally a lot of the things your university uses your tuition on are very debatable.

That’s exactly what I was thinking. Nothing outlined makes me think this is particularly pro AI. This is more of a reaction to it. Making people understand AI better is a good idea. Providing an AI platform on premise so as to not transmit all of the conversations directly to open ai servers is also a very good idea.

Whether you wanna decide to use it or not is up to you, but all of these things are a) optional and b) they sound quite sensible to me.

I tried Deezer and tidal for a month each. They were both alright, however their offline download for bigger playlists straight up sucked, so that took some sanity out of me and I had to switch back to Spotify ultimately.

Please keep this in mind if you ever consider switching.

Roblox is so fucked up, this would at least be “some” hurdle. It’s the worst way to go about it, but at this point it’s better than nothing. I just hope this will not become standard. You know, for privacy reasons.

Still faster than windows fixing their Update and shutdown bug lol

I thought we were over this tough guy talk already.

You can live a depressing life where you tell yourself any emotion towards your current situation is not to be shown otherwise you are weak and you need to be strong.

Or you can also accept that life is complex, feelings are valid, we are social creatures, real mental health means being vulnerable and the strongest people are the ones that can be vulnerable.

You are complaining because people are vulnerable. You know what? That’s the most respectable shit, to talk about deep fears and strong feelings on camera, while those people know there’s some easily irritable people like you out there who “can’t stand the weak”.

I had so many opportunities in my life to become numb, choose to suck it up, never talk about things, maybe become violent or insane, but the hardest and most sensible choice was always to be vulnerable, and everyone who doesn’t have the guts to choose that is a different kind of weak. And because I am not like you I don’t hate weak people, I listen to them, I learn from them and help them improve likewise.

TL;DR that is one of the most ignorant takes I’ve heard in a while.

That’s why “influencer” was always so bizarre to me. They do influence, but kind of like everyone else that’s got a broader reach. Musicians, authors, politicians, and artists of all kinds influence. Even your own family and friends influence.

So technically I am an influencer. Just not to such a big degree.

And that also means everything that is ever recorded in any format will “manipulate” people. I mean hell, the Bible does that to an absurd degree. And if that’s good or bad is kind of just up for everyone to decide themselves.

I can imagine the Tor address used to be legit but now after banning vpns they banned onion addresses too completely forgetting that their own onion url exists.

So there’s a reason, but then again not even realizing it still exists is exceptionally sloppy and ambiguous.

I mean what statistics say and what people base their behavior on can be widely out of tune.

I get what you’re saying, but that doesn’t invalidate their point.

Man I’m so down to join a VC of lemmings.

Did some digging and I found the unpaid labor scandal and one harassment claim. Nothing about sexual abuse and the harassment claim I was unable to corroborate.

Still bad though. What a sad story to a game with such potential. Really irks me.
