Fair enough!

Yeah exactly, and welcome!
- Comment on Trump cosplaying 2 months ago:
It stands for Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt.
I’ll be honest, though, I only really ever see it used in borderline cult-like environments, like cryptocurrency or Star Citizen. It’s a very weird term to use IMO

How was the Jack in the Box thing FUD?

Someone else looked to the group claiming responsibility for this. It’s a pro-Palestinian Russian group
- Comment on OceanGate’s ill-fated Titan sub relied on a hand-typed Excel spreadsheet 2 months ago:
Unsafe as in “the sub isn’t safe” or unsafe as in “the people working on the sub while it’s out of the water are in danger”? Not defending the sub dumbasses of course I’m just not sure if the first one falls under OSHA
- Comment on OceanGate’s ill-fated Titan sub relied on a hand-typed Excel spreadsheet 2 months ago:
Does this actually fall under OSHA? I have no idea who governs regulations for private submarines lol
But this would also be crazy low priority if it was OSHA, I imagine. The people working on (doing maintenance on) the sub weren’t in danger, right? So just four to five people who sign waivers every few months? Fuck that take a look at some more meat packing factories.

- Comment on Remedy and Annapurna announce a strategic cooperation agreement on Control 2 3 months ago:
Why do you bring up console players? What does that have to do with Steam?
Also, what’s the cutoff for the number of employees a company can have before it’s weird to stan for them? Because I’ve never liked Steam, and Valve was one of the first companies to promote lootboxes and literal gambling to children, but Epic is the devil for some reason?? Lol gtfo

Says the one defending Steam lmao grow up

- Comment on YouTube is Losing The War Against Adblockers 4 months ago:
Every creator I’ve seen talk about it said they get more from Premium viewers, so that’s why I’m confused
- Comment on YouTube is Losing The War Against Adblockers 4 months ago:
And the content creators I personally know have shown me the amount of money they get from Premium users, and it’s sometimes less than the value of an ad-supported user, even though the Premium user generates more revenue than an ad-supported one.
Can you expand on this? I don’t follow what you mean here

Lol

Didn’t two Chinese rockets just blow up a couple months ago? I don’t think a couple specific aerospace examples on the cutting edge are indicative of broader issues lol

What?
- Comment on Decentralised YouTube alternative Odysee no longer serving ads 4 months ago:
You’re reading obnoxious levels of goodwill into the actions of a company that doesn’t deserve it. This is just the video platform equivalent of “critical support to Russia.”
- Comment on Decentralised YouTube alternative Odysee no longer serving ads 4 months ago:
Blockchain is innately stupid. There is no scenario where it would make sense to use blockchain over another technology.
- Comment on Why are stories that take place in another world where everyone is white and Asian are normal, but it's "woke" if they are all black? 4 months ago:
I also read that apparently the show has only black people with super powers because it is “based on real science since people with sickle cell disease are mostly black,” but mostly is different from only. White people can also have SCD, so why couldn’t the show have one who also was born to parents with SCD?
You’re right, the show would have been so much better if they added a token white character to pander to white people. They don’t get represented enough, and them heavy handedly shoving one in would have been perfect.
