I saw discord in there as well as smart TV platforms

Lol which moron downvoted you? NO I LIKE MY BILLIONAIRE PROPAGANDA KEEP THE LIES AND OUTRAGE COMING

They also have a moderator who told me that Ukraine probably blows up their own buildings, and deleted all comments in the conversation when evidence proved otherwise.

😂 it’s always interesting to click the “why are you showing me this” button to see just how wide a net they’re casting. (Before ruthlessly clicking it to waste the budget on their stupid untargeted ads, then blocking it)

Gpt4 already gets it

Hi! I work with google ads every day, it’s my job, and I have a business running ads for other small businesses.

Guess what, I use an ad blocker!

If all ads were innocent businesses trying to sell things I’m interested in, and they all had their targeting set up correctly, it’d be great. Unfortunately, all my ads are “you are male and under 60” and that’s as sophisticated as the targeting has been set to, so they’re totally irrelevant, terrible ads.

Also, my other issue is that some advertising platforms have really low standards for what you’re allowed to show. Google at least has some standards and is sometimes overzealous with its automated disapprovals, which hopefully makes its platform a little better. But I don’t get to choose which platform ads I see when I visit someone’s site (and Google pays very little when compared to other platforms)

They’re just cheap shit. I don’t buy cheap shit, I have a premium chair that I bought used for a fraction of the price, cheaper than a “gamer chair” 🫣

I have fun, whilst sitting on a super comfy chair made to be adaptable and ergonomic so I can have fun for longer without fucking up my body. 🤷‍♂️

With a gaming chair, you’re also overpaying for bad posture and bad materials. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Yhc6mmdJC4

It just makes me think ‘kid that got scammed and follows trends to fit in’, not ‘fun’

The issue is, yeah they’re comfortable, but they’re not comfortable in a good way for your body. You slouch and fuck your spine up. Also you look like a teenager, do you have a racecar bed too?

Depends whether that 5 year old lives in Gaza

I’ve had this multiple times.

Tried to leave a big detailed helpful negative review and it gets flagged for being suspicious, with no copy of the review attached so I have to write it all again. And then it gets removed again.

I just looked in my emails. The exact phrasing was “We have reviewed our decisions and concluded that the product you received is authentic. As a result, we removed your review specific to this product. This ensures other customers see reviews that reflect the current shopping experience.”

Most recently it happened with a body trimmer, where I never questioned the inauthenticity, and then a zojirushi travel mug that I genuinely believe was a fake, and attached a lot of evidence.

Sorry, yeah I went from k2 to k2se. It’s tough. Lots of waiting around for resources really, with no way to expand without them.

I think this is where I draw the line, it’s a bit too grindy for my liking. K2 was a perfect amount of ‘extra’. I love the thought of se but having to make a new base for every resource is getting tiring even when I’ve blueprinted half of it in advance. Also a married man with a 1yr old and a business to run. 3 hours sleep is my life.

Yeah I thought the same, but I think I’m doing a good job! Doing great at looking after her, not so great at looking after myself.

I know you are not serious

Allow me to introduce myself

It’s 4:14, I need to be up to look after my daughter at 7. 👌🥱🫠

Complete it.

Then complete the K2 mod.

Then play the space exploration mod

Then the new expansion will be out.

That’s how my YEAR is going. SE takes forever.

It’s more likely that auto manufacturers put the oldest shittest slowest chips in cars that crash constantly because they can’t handle any load at all.

But there’s no need to crowdsource that info because it’s already common knowledge that “carbon footprint” and “plastic recycling” are useless inventions to make us feel like this is all our fault and if we’re good little boys and girls maybe we’ll change the world.

It’s common knowledge that we’re all fucked and there’s nothing we can do as individuals because it’s the money that makes the rules. Money owns the media, money owns the government, money comes from killing the planet and money doesn’t want to stop.

I’m not frozen, I’m just helpless. I don’t have money, I don’t have time, I’m in exactly the position the corporations of the world want me.

But “doing your part” is worthless if corporations and oil companies outweigh you by billions. Until they’re destroyed, were fucked.

I recycle, I try not to buy plastic, I try to get things from nearby and not imported, I try not to eat processed food, but I’m nothing. The population of a country is nothing if corporations run rampant with our world.

Governments need to shut that shit down, and governments are paid off by corporations.

So I have nothing left but fear, and the hope that these people start disappearing mysteriously

Radio is chaotic evil for sure

No choice, no knowledge of what might be next in the library, very small track list so loads of repeats and SO MANY ADS

But surely any social media is the same? The UI has always been terrible with hard to follow comment chains, it seems like just a bad platform before any of this, I just don’t see the appeal.

I remember it used to just be “hey this is where Stephen Fry tweets his thoughts in shortform” but why can’t he do that on Facebook,on Reddit, mastadon,Lemmy, Instagram,tiktok, and godknows what other platforms there are out there.

If one person can make an account, and another person can follow you, that’s all twitter seems to offer, and everyone does that now.
