- Comment on What is Substack and why all the sudden do all the content creators seem to be on it? 1 week ago:
It’s like an email list. Well more of a blogpost feed platform.
- Comment on What was the most pregnant "Yessss..." you've ever heard? 1 week ago:
I think pregnant here means full of additional meaning or subtext. Telling.
- Comment on Doesn't each community being local to each instance split the audience? 1 week ago:
Sorry to inform you but you are dead posting :P
This was my very first post from 2023. For some reason it’s getting comments now after I edited it. I guess that counts as new activity and it’s floating to the top of some feeds.
Side note: Thank you for all the work you do blaze. You and lady butterfly.
- Comment on If you're a parent, how do you prevent your kid from watching AI slop? 1 week ago:
I won’t have kids anyways I was just saying what I would do.
- Comment on What if the Internet Goes Down? - 15 Jan, 7PM CET 1 week ago:
Huh? Can anyone explain what all these words mean? Mesh? Ham radio? How does this work is it like toy walkie talkie?
- Comment on If you're a parent, how do you prevent your kid from watching AI slop? 1 week ago:
i can’t tell if alot of these answers are sarcastic or not…
I was being serious. Maybe college is an exaggeration but I really do think kids shouldn’t get internet until at least highschool.
I admit it’s mostly bias. I turned out fine therefore I think the way I was raised is good.
- Comment on If you're a parent, how do you prevent your kid from watching AI slop? 1 week ago:
Maybe.
When I was a kid we didn’t have internet until highschool. We’d borrow mom’s laptop for homework and smuggle some games on the way. It made us very… resourceful. Internet was this magical inaccessible thing. I remember when our school gave us tablets with restricted internet, I guessed my math teacher’s password based on how he typed and used his account it to access the full internet.
- Comment on If you're a parent, how do you prevent your kid from watching AI slop? 1 week ago:
Don’t give them full access to the internet until college.
- Comment on If I publish my memoir and wrote about every bad thing people did to hurt me while the people mentioned are still alive, how much trouble could I get in? 1 week ago:
If you publish it anonymously, then none at all… well unless it goes super popular and it’s specific enough they can tell it’s you.
If I ever publish something like that I’d call it “I’m burning bridges, bitches!”
- Comment on Deshittification 1 week ago:
Well the thing about enshitification is that it was always basically inevitable. These platforms only cared so much about UX early on because they wanted growth and didn’t mind being unprofitable in the short term in order to grow and dominate the market. Now that they have, they care about monetizing that growth. I don’t think deshitification of a platform is likely. The owners have no incentive to, unless they lose enough users. Inertia, and network effects makes that really hard.
Deshitification through new platforms meanwhile? Possible. I can honestly say people on the fediverse are so much nicer than Reddit, and the platforms themselves have so much more variaty, better customization and UX options. Plus they’re open source (which reddit initially was). The problem is the inactivity, and the overwhelmingness of US-politics and negativity.
- Comment on The more you learn about human biology and childbirths, the more you'd realize how shitty and inferior this form of existence is... 1 week ago:
Intelligent design my ass
No, literally. My ass is a counterargument to intelligent design. Bruh I had to have surgery as an infant and still have chronic constipation.

Do they surface to the top though?
- Comment on Doesn't each community being local to each instance split the audience? 1 week ago:
I’m surprised I’m getting replies to the very first post I ever made because I edited it recently. On reddit you don’t get new activity from editing. Where are you even seeing this?
- Comment on Say, the country/countries you have citizenship in, decided to not want you anymore and threw you to some random "3rd world country", how do you survive? 4 weeks ago:

- Comment on How long after starting Vitamin D supplements should you notice results? 1 month ago:
Well years ago I was tested and found deficient. I don’t remember how bad it was. I didn’t really stick to the supplements.
It’s also currently winter in Europe where it gets dark really early and I have dark skin and don’t leave the house much. I guess I can get tested. I’m just thinking I’d save the money.

Why do you ask about that specific show?
- Comment on Does vibe coding sort of work at all? 6 months ago:
It works short term. If you have a deadline tomorrow by all means.
Long term you need to be aware of not just the code but the theory behind the code. You can make it work if you’re promoting what you need and read the result, understand it and test it but if we pure vibe coding is probably too much.
- Comment on what language would be best for me to learn? 7 months ago:
Back in reddit in r/languagelearning whenever someone asked this question without giving any context about who they are or what they want out of language learning there was a long running joke to reply with “Uzbek”
You should learn Uzbek.
- Comment on 8 months ago:
Oh yeah it understood me too, but its reply was a weird mix of dialect and non dialect
- Comment on 8 months ago:
I don’t know about creoles but with dialects in my experience it mixes the standard language, the dialect I use with it and other dialects. Probably confusing that they all use the same writing system and have some common vocab.
