This is why we don’t need vaccines.

We just need gradual exposure to a lesser form of bullshit, so we can develop immunity to the greater whole of bullshit!

Discord is a great platform for bullshitting with your friends while playing games and shit.

but people are using it for things that its not, and wasnt ever meant to be.

Yep.

Discord is a black hole where information goes to die.

Its not indexable, its not searchable, If you are having a problem you will never find it via conventional means.

and the second the discord shuts down, all the information is gone forever.

Discord is not a tech support platform. it is not a information storage platform.

it is a communication platform.

and far, far to many organizations use it for tech support and information storage. To the detriment of everyone… even themselves.

Because people don’t want to have to join special services just to find out why their piece of software doesnt work.

you right. done.

the overwhelming bulk of the internet is made up of idiots, who seethe and hiss at anyone that has two functional neurons to produce a spark of intelligent thought with.

Nah, musks to much of a manly man to be bothered by it.

Adrian Dittman might lose his goddamn mind, however.

There were plenty of free forum hosts back in the day. (edit: just did a search and there are still free forum hosts)

But then social media came out, and everyone got addicted to the gamified dopamine mechanics like upvotes and shit. So now everything has to have upvotes, or likes, or whatever other stupid bullshit shit that has absolutely ruined human interaction and discourse and is single handedly to blame for the extremity in modern discourse, because the need to drive clicks and upvotes leads to extreme polarization where no common sense, honest discussion can be held.

because you either 100% agree with me (upvote) or you are a baby killing bastard who disagrees with me (downvote), and there can be no middle ground! /s

I dont know.

If I had my choice between a CPU that has a vulnerability that can only be exploited if the system is already compromised

or a CPU that are full of oxidation cancer, or frying themselves and doing irreparable damage… Which the company is being excessively shady about concretely admitting to any RMA promises and wwill all eventually die in short order…

I think I’m gonna go with the Ryzen and not leave leave my computer outside at defcon.

Lemmy should tell you the text of what was deleted and the mod who deleted it, cause there was nothing uncivil about what I said.

Removed by mod

barring that, unplug the ethernet.

Ah yes, the pirate bay, the first stop for anyone wanting to download a file thats probably a virus.

Also they have lost lawsuits in the past and had fines levied against them and had property seized, so they arent as immune as you think.

You dont have to enforce it.

You just have to drown people in legal bills and force them into compliance with risk of bankruptcy.

I’ve been saying this for like 6 months.

.ml is just a filter for Hexbear and lemmygrade users to infiltrate the greater federated instances.

Congrats, That is the most obvious and intentional wooosh I’ve ever seen.

and I bet you think you’re so clever with it.

Just go join threads. I’m sure its full of people just like you. You’ll feel right at home with other people who feel the need to loudly announce departures and pretending to put people on ignore.

No, its people capable of looking back and recognizing mistakes that were made, and not wanting to repeat them.

Meanwhile a bunch of corporate white knights are screaming about how its unfair to be mean to billion dollar companies, and how they totally wont do the the destructive, exploitative bullshit this time, that they’ve done every other time in the past.

“Stop letting other people make decisions for you”

“If you do X I am leaving”

Maybe you should stop letting people make decisions for you.

Be bold, be brave, and just go ahead and leave now.

Just cause someone is competent or intelligent, doesnt mean they are smart or wise.
