• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google admits the open web is in ‘rapid decline’⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Some mainstream websites and services are practically unusable when using a VPN, too. I’m glad I stopped using imgur but I wish the rest of the world would catch up…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Roblox continues efforts for child safety by expanding age estimation to all users by end of the year⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Why tf are they encouraging dating when their userbase is primarily children???

  That’s just asking for more predators on their platform!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Don't worry about the job market on Earth, Gen Z: Sam Altman, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk say you’ll be working in space soon⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Just another silly distraction from the fact that they create most of the problems here on earth, and they don’t want you to turn on them.

  Eat the rich.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨House Republicans Investigate Wikipedia Over Alleged Bias⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, we all know that reality has a well known liberal bias…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How a hacker helped win a wrongful death lawsuit against Tesla⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The hacker also has a reddit account and was commenting on this article over there. I’m incredibly surprised that he hasn’t been permbanned yet. That’s usually what happens.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨how good are you at lying during job interviews?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Keep feeding them BS. Embellish your past experience (within reason), make yourself look good. Management has zero qualms about lying to you, regardless if you’re a prospective hire or have been working for them for decades. So might as well do the same thing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's going on with imgur right now?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m glad I got away from imgur. What I wanted was simple: an image hosting service that didn’t try to be something it’s not, or change its UI every five seconds. Been using imgbb, I like it.

  If you’re ever around Michigan, try some Faygo Redpop.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Someone should ban this shill/bot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Instagram Caught Hiding Posts That Say "Immigrants Make the Country Great"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I hope you succeed; I’d watch that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bluesky blocks Mississippi users over age verification law⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Does this law apply to all social media or social media-type sites or only social media websites under the umbrella of the NetChoice group?

  I’ve read several articles and they’re all frustratingly vague. Bluesky is not under NetChoice so I assume social media sites will be blocking MS IPs?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Americans’ junk-filled garages are hurting EV adoption, study says⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, my bfs dad is constantly filling his house, garage, and yard with a bunch of crap that he’ll never use. It just sits there and gets forgotten and deteriorates. Took us 6 years but we got like 90% of what he was storing out of our house too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cisco layoffs after record revenue report⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow, his statement sure sounds like a threat to current employees.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Creating dogs⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This joke has to be at least 30 years old by now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨0°mg⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Finally, a good fucking shitpost.

  the rest of the memes I’ve seen on this sub are like, boomer-tier.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I like how bro just drops an all caps advertisement on here and then bails without answering any questions or tech issues with it. Great job buddy, this will definitely get everyone on board.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨SpaceX says states should dump fiber plans, give all grant money to Starlink⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Business owned by greedy manbaby says to give money to business also owned by greedy manbaby. Hmmm…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google will pay $30 million to settle a lawsuit claiming it violated the privacy of children using YouTube⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Cost of doing business. Add it to the pile.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google President Praised MAGA Speech Slamming ‘Climate Extremist Agenda’⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Google needs to be broken up and dissolved.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Famous VPN company Mullvald says it will no longer use OpenVPN⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Privacy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Here’s how to spot AI writing, according to Wikipedia⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean I wasn’t going around accusing everyone of being a bot or thinking that I was right all the time. I did have a few false positives and owned up to it. But once you see the pattern of behavior (big gap on joined date vs first active date, only posting in karma farming subs or subs known to have high bot populations) and accounts literally keeping the “as a large language model…” Or “Okay, here’s a supportive Reddit-style comment with some minor spelling mistakes…” In some of their comments.

  I have screenshots to prove it but if you really believe I don’t know what I’m talking about then there’s really nothing I can say to dissuade that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Here’s how to spot AI writing, according to Wikipedia⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d gotten really good at discerning a chatGPT bot from a human account just from years of catching bots on Reddit.

  There’s a lot of red flags and tells that would be very hard to completely eradicate. There will always be an uncanny valley.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it everywhere?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It really fucks with my head when I hear sonic rings come from a gas station cash register…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google search boss says AI isn’t killing search clicks⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Avoiding Google is honestly the best choice to avoid AI. Duckduckgo has a toggle where you can switch off AI summaries and filter out most AI generated images in image search. I switched to DDG years ago and never looked back.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Idk why but this post gives me strong scam bot vibes.
