every “you” is subjective, water is not.

as long as there are enough people and content here, why should we even care if everyone isnt here? I dont even want every idiot here.

put current administartion in jail to a man, abolish both parties, start extensive campaign rooting out the corruption and influence of the rich from your country. 2/3 of those at least.

Rich cant exploit socialism as easily, therefore they demonize it.

nowdays you never know

Every day i had it installed i cursed that i had to even use the application, it just made me feel miserable and that i’m just cattle for the corporation, not human being searching for another.

It constantly trys to hook you into spending money and reminds you that you might be missing out if you dont with the blurred profiles of people that have liked you, which are always someone from hundreds of km away anyway or bots, but they might not be also.

And there is also that I’m neurodivergent, so it also filters me out from majority of other people > others just think fundamendally differently than me. And only people that match with me are people i’m not necessarily that interested in but would be willing to at least get to know them, but that isnt very good starting point for finding a girlfriend. I know i would have at least something to offer to others, but i’m not that good at expressing myself so I wont be given a chance or will get misunderstood because i can’t express myself in right way.

Mere existence of dating applications kind of make me anxious, since it means other people will be using those instead of being open outside of them. I dont want to even use them, but i feel that i’m forced to if i want to meet people that are looking for anything.

I have also used other applications too, like badoo, hinge and even okcupid. While on tinder you get more matches than on those others, people seem to be less interested in actually talking with you.

is this hyperbole or is that actually a thing?

its just full of people who are not actually looking for anyone, crazy people, people who will not answer you ever. And on top of that, there is like will be 10 men for every woman and if you dont pay you will be at the very bottom of the list, if you pay you will be competing with others who pay, except those who pay more who will still be above you.

Its miserable experience, dont do it to yourself.

they still give at least a wibe of what others opinion is about something. A lot of upvotes or downvotes tells of strong opinions, lack of negative votes tells of lack of negative opinions, a lot of both tells that thing being voted might be controversial.

personally i appreciate honest downvotes a lot, since they let me know i might be wrong about something or at least might need to reconsider.

even llm has more soul than those

upvotes dont mean anything without downvotes

“our browser is so good, we have to offer bogus prizes to get people to switch to it!”

jaywalkers, enemys of society #1.

maybe it really would be worth the effort to learn 🤔

i think the rich are doing so horrible stuff that if exposed it will either finally be the last straw, or it will expose that we dont deserve to live as species if it isnt.

hackers wasting their talents on petty things like this. they should dig up evidence of corruption and what the rich are doing behind closed doors and such and demand ransom for that. then release it anyway after getting paid and get lauded as heroes on top of getting money.

or rather their foot at the door. they just need SOMETHING and once they get started they can just keep making things worse. its never about protecting kids.

its sickening that the billionaires could just openly reveal all the horrifying things they do to people and no one would care, but only if things directly affect your personal life people care even a little. They could livestream themselves cannibalizing a live child and it wouldnt cause anything but momentary outrage that maybe lasts a bit longer than average.

Its good that people are rising up against this shit because all the negatives are true, but at the same time i have started to feel we really dont deserve good things.

that is my point exactly. doesnt matter how nice the game looks, if its uncreative crap nothing will save that.

yes, i can get behind the configurability, lets you make the program into your own personal tool nicely. my problem is that you have to do it in such difficult and unintuitive way. though it has been very long time since i last took a look at vim, so maybe things have improved and its easier to configure now, i doubt it though.

So it would be nice if getting into it was easier even if you havent used it as your main editor for last 50 years. not being able to even exit vim without looking up guide for it demonstrates this quite nicely.
