Gotta protect the children from thing like boobs and the word fuck so they can get them started on what really matters, becoming hopelessly addicted to a social media platform to drive advertising revenue.

Actual insightful conversation on a variety of subjects. Especially current events, I notice this the most when discussing content updates in video games. While official forums exist a lot of the games I play essentially use their subreddit as a semi-official community with devs being active participants.

/r/eve and /r/pathofexile are great examples of this.

It’s hard to discount the success Reddit has had over the last decade or so positioning themselves as the “front page of the internet” giving people a forum to discuss all manner of subjects.

As I understand a lot of the hatred against Reddit and spez specifically comes from his attempts to monetize this phenomenon, not how effective/popular the site was.

I had DRM on my coffee pot on my 2017 bingo card.

Are they going to claim that as a $13 write off or a $1400 write off?

You don’t think monetizing data means using it train AI?

Who cares what /u/cincinatticatlover69 thinks about the sandwich /u/someshittypopculturepun ate for lunch other AI looking to monitor human communication habits.

That just sounds like banning with more steps.

I think that’s part of why they stopped allowing third party apps, they were worried our (there?) data was going to be used to train AI. I assume whatever is restricting that, also restricts the search results.

I will reiterate my point. This outrage is not rooted in some deep seeded hatred towards AI, it is because Disney claimed they didn’t want it used on their streaming platform and then immediately used it to market one of their flagship products.

I think people are mad because they banned technology on the platform and then clearly continued to use it.

Rules for thee, not for me.

It’s crazy how fucked up Apple is when you speak objectively outloud about their products and policies.

'Murika Fuck Yeah

You mean like the lightning cable?

My breaking point for paying for something that I could otherwise get for free is convenience. Doesn’t even need to be a lot, I just refuse to pay for a product that artificially more of a hassle than the identical product that I can obtain for free.

It’s not so much that I want a superior product, it’s that I refuse to pay money for an inferior alternative.

Yaaargh mateys, you do be asking the wrong questions.

I try not to keep up with social norms but this comment really perplexed me. I tend to subscribe to a very literal definition of the term racist.

This comment is inherently degrading to people and their culture based on the colour of their skin. That’s racism full stop, creating racism power rankings with thresholds where comments aren’t racist if you are disparaging a collectively agreed upon advantaged race doesn’t seem like the proper direction to be going if the goal is to stop racially motivated prejudice.

Yeah it blows my mind how much I’ve spent on league supporter kits as well. Not sure if it is because I enjoy the game or I respect the business model.

I’m not against battle passes, but there are plenty of examples of how they fall under the predatory monetization category. Not selling power is hardly a justification that they aren’t unethical.

Don’t forget the battle passes.
