I thought it was on by default, I have a (possibly confabulated) memory of unchecking it because I want adult content to show up; I prefer a more true to humanity face on the internet, that includes us at our shaking it baby, banging like it'll solve global hunger, nude lewd and crude finest.

I haven't in a long time, but if I model trying to, I start from the top. You have to really work at it to misalign the top button and the rest flows naturally with gravity aligning everything.

Christ, you're the kind of person who'd start a banana from the middle too, aren't you? AREN'T YOU?

Just kidding, but I actually am curious why you find that better, it seems like begging for an off by one buttoning.

And you don't end up misaligned? Is the muscle memory just that good?

I see how you got the mathematician part of your name.

Unfortunately, most people rely almost exclusively on emotive reasoning and even those who try to do better have trouble nailing down the exact values of humanity with mathematical sharpness. It stands high on my list of reasons to expect humanity not to survive the century, unfortunately. If you have a novel process to this end to point to I would be quite interested.

Old reddit and ublock. I knew it existed from the shadows it cast into the comments of people complaining about it.

It was like this on reddit after the Digg exodus. It'll fade.

Where's that "First time?" meme when us internet oldsters need it?

People love to find rare negative examples and signal boost them to the stars, if they don't like something. I wish people were trying harder to be the people Mr. Rogers knew they could be.

They might be trying it on a select subset of users to see how it goes.

It's not just a few bad apples, but a problem with the barrel making and empowering bad apples?

Sure wish we'd had a bunch of experts telling us that for a long time!

I am being more sarcastic than I think I have permitted myself so far, but aargh! We know what the problems are and have for a long time, we just aren't allowed to fix them!

I nuked two reddit accounts, one of them a 13 year account. They might undelete my posts, which isn't great, but ehh. They might be able to bring back the content I had provided, but they'll never get any more from me.

Be afraid - be angry - be afraid - be angry, the drumbeat that runs through all right wing media for mass consumption.

He hasn't been shy about talking about trans people. He's guided by the applause lines, constantly a/b testing which ones get him a bigger response, and since the ecosystem of the right has been building us up as the new bad guy, the crowd loves to be reminded that they should be mad about us.

HopeOfTheGunblade,

Yup. Lots of things aren't about me. But the parts about vilifying trans people are inclusive of me.

Definitely feeling some hostility that isn't really necessary here.

Thanks, I hate it.

I think Saruman really said it best: "Make the force be with you!"

Be fair, there's also the NSFW side.

I expect it'll take a while for kbin / the fediverse to acquire, and me to find, segments focused on some of the niche areas I had on that other site, but ehh. I knew there would be costs in leaving.

Look, it's the public square! It's very important that it have free and unfettered discussion by the people who will tell me I'm great for hurting some other people! Liberals and leftists whine about how nobody should be being hurt, but where's the rush of exercising power to not hurt people?
