They really will keep pushing this until it's 1% content, 5% sponsorshit, and the remainder ads that are injected straight into your eyeballs like Pulp Fiction. With a fire hose.

Tried showing some people some YT videos on a "smart TV", instead of my usual uBO+SponsorBlock+BlockTube on a PC. It is fucking awful. It verges on being literally unfuckingusable by being so much of a bitch it's easier to just not watch anything on it.

It's not like that's a worse metric than MBTI

I'd assume they were trying to pimp me to some buzzwordoholic. I don't see any reasonable interpretation of it that's insulting, though.

Having it be (perceived as) the norm is absolutely stupid - but the issue is with ignorant management and recruiters, not people who get into entire stacks honestly for fun or profit.

That is probably literally Filch, poor bastard.

Damn, I hate it when bathroom supplies don't available.

Ooooh! No, my bad, I'll have that fixed in a jiff now that you've pointed it out. Thanks!

Wouldn't surprise me. If you're not into ragebait, tankieism, linux smugness, the painful minutiae of corporations fucking everyone, US bullshit, or all of the above... this place is really pretty slow.

I only really browse "all" on this site and it does seem like fresh content trickles in at a fairly slow rate. At least part of that is that it needs to squeeze by what is now pages and pages of blocked communities just trying to avoid the doomposting.

Yeah, bad faith participation is awesome if you have an excuse.

I was just expressing surprise at exactly how shit this health-related, science-related advice was, and consequently what a bad idea listening to it would be. It is not my field, as stated. Do I need to post a treatise to be able to say "whoa, that's not how good advice looks"?

Sorry you didn't find it constructive, I don't find this productive or constructive or any other metaphor either. Guess you can't please everyone.

Have you considered maybe your "participation" is just insufferable even if it weren't blatantly bad faith?
