Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
(Semi-obligatory thanks to @dgerard for starting this)
The guy seems shrewd enough to know publicly supporting anything AI will shred his reputation - I suspect he might have been duped.
Yeah, I get what youāre saying but Iād really have to stretch my benefit-of-the-doubt muscles to consider someone who makes such well-researched videos wouldnāt go to the website before he reads the url out on his video and see that on the homepage, above the fold, in big letters, it says āPowered by AIā
maybe reach out and ask? might be interesting to see the answer
(if you care to, anyway)
Itās definitely the prudent option but Iām over mental capacity and Iād be lying if I said I wasnāt sharing this just for the upvotes. I couldnāt see any mentions of the sponsor in the comments, so I guess the audience, at least, were duped. I already have a string of unanswered questions on ecosiaās greenwashing social posts, though
yep, I getcha.
sorry if my reply sounded rude. I didnāt mean it to be. I just saw it again and it sounds dismissive.
