Legit question.

I think we all know it isn’t

Americans not understanding other countries exist, an exhibit:

why don’t you tell us how you really feel

Turns out you can’t train stupid people to do stupid things

Oh no maybe only 10x the population of Finland, this completely wrecks my argument.

Do you honestly seriously think that the ratio of bots to people on Reddit is so high that you’re more likely to see bot-generated (and not by just any bots but ones masquerading as humans) content than not?

I used to be a huge user of all the drama subs but they started getting formulaic

Which only tells us anything about drama subs.

Edit: Reddit has, what, >100k active subs and ~500 million active monthly users. Even if half of them were literal bots that’d leave you with ~250 million monthly meatbags using the site.

50–100 times the population of eg. Finland—“everybody on reddit is the same and they’re like chatbots, amirite?”

Revenge of the Edit: and before any of y’all get any bright ideas, I use em & en dashes because I’m a ginormous nerd who also uses interrobangs (“uses what‽”), fite me

outgroup bad, applause please

So mind telling us mere mortals what your point is, then?

Just asking why anyone would want to publicly host the repo for a closed source project isn’t a point – it’s just you not understanding the reasons for doing that, and just because you personally don’t understand something doesn’t mean there’s no valid reason to do it.

“Not like that!”

Ugh, goddamnit. But at least that’s 5 years old, so maybe they’ve changed? I can’t remember running into anything in the 2-3 years I’ve been a subscriber, although it’s definitely not like I’ve seen every single headline during that time.

Yeah same. I’ve got a subscription but I’m going to yank that tout-de-fucking-suite if they’re TERF-friendly

“Wealth manager.” Funny way to spell “parasite”

Wouldn’t expect much more from a TERF paper.

Ah shit, has The Guardian platformed TERFs?

I think we might actually see a new age of nuclear proliferation; over 50% of the current nuclear-armed states are more or less authoritarian, and nuclear blackmail has gotten very common. More and more states are waking up to the fact that they need their own nuclear deterrent, and eg. the US “nuclear umbrella” isn’t reliable

Yeah that’s a great point.

I swear it feels like the rabidly anti-AI people are just as fucking stupid as the rabidly pro-AI ones

“Used up old slut” as incels mainstream conservatives would say

Give him a break, he’s demented and he was never bright to begin with; he probably thinks she’s 16

I do it out of love for LLM scrapers.

Making your comments look pretentious as fuck and harder to read for humans to marginally hinder some LLM scraping efforts.

Galaxy brain move.

But but but but marketplace of ideas

Search just got smarter shittier.
