Don’t hold out on any responses either. They feel righteous in their decision and won’t do shit about it.

I was banned countless times from reddit to where now registering to them through mobile, VPN even and normally for some reason (burner e-mails, creative with screen names), will give me a shadow-ban. The only way out now is to ask for a IP change or just move elsewhere, where I’ll get a new ISP and new IP.

Reddit has been bred to have incredibly argumentative users, who shamelessly have wandered over to lemmy too as I’ve experienced. I have been subjected to numerous instances of people baiting, gas-lighting and have had orchestrated complaints against me just to have me banned so they can get their rocks off over it. It got really bad to where I couldn’t even complain and vent about my job to the right subreddits where those posts would be warranted, without getting bombarded by asshole-by-design antagonistic users.

And to find that Reddit bathes itself in advertisements, bathes itself in censorship, bathes itself in its own form of political correctness (doesn’t matter what view you have, it is entirely arbitrary) and bathes itself in getting involved with the stock market. That any redeemable quality Reddit had, has been pissed away and Spez is over there dancing merrily over it as he is a proclaimed billionaire. Getting enriched off the backs of those who’ve spent years of manhours having to bother maintaining “quality” of Reddit discussion.

And that wasn’t enough so now Reddit came after the APIs as we all know and we all know how that wound up. Reddit Enhancement Suite, my favorite go-to plugin when I used to have bothered with Reddit, is no longer actively developed because of the API shit. So Spez can just fuck himself dry while gobbling his daddy Musk’s cock.

I advise against Amazon Machine Turk.

It’s basically a digital sweatshop. Doing all of these menial, logically mundane and borderline crazy tasks. Just to earn a literal nickel.

Yeah, okay, China.

How about produce the thing and don’t pull any marketing tricks, hm? We’ll find out one way or another whether these are the real deals.

Karma.

If it existed, then how come bad people get away with a lot of shit?

Being the bigger man.

I don’t outright disagree with it to where I think it’s not useful, but I don’t agree with it either. There are some specific situations and circumstances at play where maybe being the bigger man wasn’t worth it. It’s hard to tell sometimes but I’ve been in situations where having been the bigger man just meant more bullshit for me in the end. Than, having done something right then and there that would’ve solved the issue and prestige not mattering.

If you don’t respond to something in the next 2 minutes, then you’re ghosting.

I blame the early stages of texting when the dawn of cellphones began, when they became more easily accessible.

Then, I blame Twitter and Facebook for character limits. So, it forced people to dumb down everything they try to talk about.

Then, I blame TikTok/Vine/YouTube Shorts for even worsening the attention span of people.

So now it’s like, if you attempt to explain things in great detail, you’ll get one or both reactions. One being, people being snarkily towards you about how the post is at length and it is one thing for your post to be a giant blob of text with no structure. Nobody likes reading that, even I don’t like reading that and I can get wordy.

The other reaction are people who just complain, bitch, moan and cry about how long the post is.

People have given me grief for use of commas. They help break sentences so things don’t seemingly go on and on. That’s what they’re used for, to let you know about where a break is and it is about voicing it in your mind in how it’d sound.

But people don’t have that capability I guess, so they whine.

DDR4 is serviceable to me.

Here’s some actual advice for PC builders - what do you actually want from your system? Nothing you say can be vague, you have to set up goals. That’s the entire important note of PC building is what you’re building it for and how long you want it to last for as in, how long until you’re wanting to build another?

Flying cars would be disasters waiting to happen. Yeah because drunk drivers on the ground isn’t bad enough, no, lets have drunk drivers in flight who are now capable of practically crashing into everything.

The values of Accountability, Responsibility and Dignity are pretty much a joke.
