Two Sneer Clubs, both alike in dignity…
I’m so tired.
Two Sneer Clubs, both alike in dignity…
the number of people on /r/sneerclub who seem utterly unaware of the new digs is tragic.
feed it into their spicy autocomplete engines which then flood the internet with AI sludge
I’m getting a mental image of a wood chipper: a word chipper.
https://status.d420.de/ there’s a few nitters post-rebirth, all of them probably using a fleet of real accounts and anti-bot protection instead of the guest accounts that first-age nitter used.
Mouse-of-Theseus. Mouseus.
I have been trying to navigate the current mouse market, I am hoping that these new fancy “good for 20 million clicks” switches that have migrated from mechanical keyboards over to mice mean that my next mouse will last for 20 years or so. Now to just find a way to differentiate between the 500,000 mice that are all at the €45 price point with the same form factor and specs.
Calls it a “hostile takeover” even though he literally explains why it wasn’t a hostile takeover: Developers were way behind schedule and not making progress, Star Theory leadership tried to hold T2 hostage with the project and T2 called their bluff and cancelled the contract. They then offered developers to transfer to new studio. Some developers wanted a pay raise or didn’t transfer for other reason.
This seems like bad faith rules lawyering. The publisher didn’t literally buy out the studio, they just withheld funding, made a new studio they owned and forced everyone over. They took over, it was hostile.
Trippy, their username counts, Trippy. They are posting their username to your sub. Even if you ignore (don’t!) that usernames are links to their other Nazi posts, they are posting Nazi phrases, to your sub. “outside of the sub”? Trippy.
Can’t blame this shit on the survey!
I checked, crypto shit was not in any of the top 8 results (top 5 broken out, and they mentioned 3 more, which are surely #6 through #8).
To think that when sneer club/techtakes migrated to lemmy, I was pretty sure we would not be getting a lot of incidental traffic to the communities. Just about as wrong as you can be.
Can’t wait to find out that the Perseid meteor shower, which has inspired humanity for centuries, is actually just Von Neumann probes from a long-dead civilization that spam their equivalent of tea.xyz pull requests on any planet that has advanced to hosting source forges.
“Any messages beyond this tweet from anyone claiming to be from Pendle is a scam”
33 replies from scammers. Holy shit.
Trace RTs someone hoping aloud that his nonsense gets laundered by an RS, then breathlessly reports on his literal transparent brigade getting unbanned using a very strained appeal to WP:AGF, so I am starting to get a picture of his end-goal.
as, indeed, has started to happen https://xcancel.com/thezahima/status/1811495742894408065
What are the chances that the front end was not programmed to handle the LLM returning an empty string?
“disorderly cities are required by the state religion”
When they are absolutely sure the tweet will not escape containment, they will just take assumptions like “a certain percentage of people has incurable Criminal Mind” as given and go from there.
I miss the good old days when they had to make sneersneerclub to talk behind our backs instead of chatting up a wall, oblivious.
I meant the user they’re speaking to, compare to [removed link]
EDIT: spoke to self, just more free jank, almost all of the visibility should be gone for the banned to howl into the void as intended.
As @soyweiser@awful.systems says, this is not just an eyesore for people not on awful.sys, but unmoderated bullshit that is, for some reason, being federated out to everyone (except awful.sys).
I bring this up because this is some fresh new jank, not from concentrate: who is supposed to moderate hate speech or disinformation that is being spread in this way? Why does lemmy federate comments from banned people? This happens in techtakes as well, another user has no idea they’re banned, posts regularly and is having conversations [removed link] with no indication that this guy is persona non grata.
It seems like many still-active redditors have consulted Ass, My, et al (2024) to conclude any alternative to reddit were abject failures and not worth investigating
