How did volunteers who run reddit’s for-profit business for them for free end up equated with landed gentry?

The fact is that technology advances and makes other technology obsolete,
Yeah, it happens on both sides, it’s an arms race. It will swing the other way eventually - it always has and always will
The second thing you’re not addressing is how long the “ebb and flow” takes anyway
That was intentional. There’s no estimating a timeline, but with the development of technology it’s not unreasonable to expect a reversal even in a decade. Anyway, if you’re trying to ward off doomerism you’re not going to do it by only looking at what you stand to gain
Looking at the world rn, I dont think things have a tendency to get better on their own
This is called a recency bias (I think lol) - you’re looking at the world rn and assuming its trends must continue. When you look at history you see that there are ebbs and flows, and that stasis is rare. If you focus on certain things, you may certainly decide we’re in a downtrend. There will always be an uptrend afterward. And vice versa
Yeah I’m not subscribing to a whole service just so I can watch 3/4 of my team’s games and no others. I want a service I can subscribe to and see all my team’s games, and preferably all the games in one league. If it was multi-league that would be great, but I’d rather subscribe to one league at a time than subscribe to all leagues with randomly blacked out games.
Until then - and I know it’s unlikely to ever happen - I won’t be spending money on watching sports on tv
I always call it Magic Math. There’s so much of it when you start learning about investing/trading. “Buying calls has infinite potential for gains. Selling calls has infinite potential for losses.” Like, yeah, that’s mathematically true. But at the end of the day it’s not practically true, you’re just putting a lot of weight on what you could be getting instead of what you are getting.
I’d recommend deciding what you’re looking for in a VPN, then using r/VPN’s comparison guide to find which one suits your wants.
Is this the best method? Idk, but it’s what I did and I’m pretty satisfied. I decided that the most important factors to me were port-forwarding, price, speed, leak protection, and encryption - basically in that order. Using that criteria I settled on AirVPN, and I have no complaints so far (one month in).
Some people care more about ethics, or ownership, or what have you. So what you think is the best VPN will depend on your needs. There’s no perfect VPN anymore, imo
Edit: As others have pointed out, some VPNs also come in optional packages. Ones such as Proton. That’s something else to consider if you’re in the market for stuff like antivirus or secure email
You really should do more research, how cunt is perceived varies by country and culture. Your worldview is not total. “You lot” continues to make me laugh. You resort to identity assumptions more than a republican. Just as zealous too.
I should’ve known. I really should’ve known
Also just the dogmatism and zealousness. Like good grief dude, people aren’t going to conform to your worldview 100%, just like you aren’t going to conform to theirs.
But hey, what do I know, all I did was recreate an ironic humor community because I’m ableist and homophobic. I certainly haven’t been moderating to keep the good parts and leave the bad behind on reddit /s
No no, there was a test. They provided a list of all the things that MLs hate and don’t want people doing (took me days to reach the bottom) and we had to figure out how to do all of them. Because we’re evil. Literally Hitler. Oh and also none of us can read.
I’m sorry we can’t be Holy like you guys. You truly are a penitent congregation. Except I’m not sorry. Because I’m so evil
No I didn’t
No they make us take a test to prove that we’re racist and hate women and curb-stomp gay babies
Do you really? How do you go about proving that kind of thing?
Bro all I said was that you can’t expect people to be nice to you if you’re being an asshole to them. Don’t care? Cool. Then keep being an asshole.
YOU are the one that got all angry and started making accusations and treating identity like an insult. Which, btw, has all been imagined because I literally have not argued a single position this whole time. “People like me” lmao. You clearly have some pent up rage that you’re just waiting to unleash on anyone who you imagine fits that mold.
“Misogynistic language” in this context is just a phrase you’re using to shut down conversation, just like you tried with cishet.
Hahahaha, nah, it’s just funny when people who think like you can’t handle people not praising you for being so enlightened. Think what you want about me. Weird that you’re bringing identity into things considering you don’t know anything about me. But at least I don’t have to waste more time with you. Seeing you added nothing I accept your concession, you can’t win them all. Just lose with more grace next time.
Lmao you don’t know even know what you’re arguing against. I never said anything about whether you should be polite, I just said that if you’re going to be a cunt you can’t complain about people being cunts back
Also if you did 5 minutes of research you’d see that c/[email protected] doesn’t allow any kind of hate speech, there are no slurs in any of the comments, and our most recent post removal was because of ableist and racial slurs. But go off I guess
Then don’t complain when people respond in kind…
Authors never said anything about gaming, the tweet did
Maybe so! Always hard to say with the range of opinions I see on the internet these days
