i think there’s an important distinction to make between thinking lyrics are poor quality and strongly disagreeing with the message in the lyrics.

i often ignore lyrics of poor quality because the music behind them is so good. luckily i don’t recall coming across messaging like you are struggling with, but i think it would anger me enough to lose any interest in the band. don’t support people like that.

to be fair their singer doesn’t write most of the lyrics.

mm yes gatekeeping and money shaming, that’ll convince them.

yes, pretty lies beat the truth.

Major platforms have to be legislated to tightly control which ads they run.

that’s like hatin’ on a free drinks and cheeseburgers after smoking the cheeba.

no, that’s Jellyfin. hatin on plex is like hatin on mcdonalds.

still missing the point. we’re not talking about a couple comments here or there.

And artificial intelligence is still not basic programming.

conditional and logical expressions have been the foundation of computing since the very beginning. you are using a definition of “AI” that is completely divorced from that history.

No, it’s a computer making a computation. The programmer is the one using intelligence by choosing the appropriate computation for the situation at hand.

read the article.

Perhaps our most striking result was finding an entire class of Reddit users whose primary purpose seems to be to disagree with others. These users specifically seek out opportunities to post contradictory comments, especially in response to disagreement, and then move on without waiting for replies.

Read the article. It’s not about normal run of the mill disagreement. It’s about:

yeah i recently stopped watching sports for similar reasons. cancelling the $84/month youtubetv sub and getting back hours and hours of my life every week. gonna try to learn drums or something.

exactly, if you want to be an ethical consumer you’d need to be a hermit.

yeah if anything they should have done the opposite and just called the entire streaming platform HBO full stop.

yeah that was my point.
