I loved stickdeath.com as a kid, but it seemed to have evolved into something much darker over the years.

I hear this a lot. I'm self-taught and had just been let go from my first dev job ever. I was broke and desperate so I built something. I have been ashamed of it at multiple times in my career, but tbh I built something that fed, shelt

Ran a clickbait site, and got flagged for using a bunch of 302 redirects instead of 301s. Went from almost 500k uniques a month to 1k. During the appeal it was reviewed from India, and I had been using geoblocking. This caused my appeal to

The only "free" software license is MIT. We can talk about Stallman's "vision", but frankly he's a commie who wants to dictate usage rights for others. Free as in speech not as in beer. I read as total freedom.

I find being outspoken is a great way to be heard and visible, but if I'm being honest my entire personality is confrontational. I share my opinions, accomplishments, and (most importantly) my failures. This tends to make me a default

Frankly I disagree and am pointing out the obvious subtext. if giving all my money away leads to "the intrinsic satisfaction of being a decent human and creating a better world." Then it's not much of a step or even a leap to

> You could do it for the intrinsic satisfaction of being a decent human and creating a better world. Do you think we're extrapolating too much into the meaning of "decent human"?

by dizlexic 1y ago
and this is downvoted why? giving all your money away in no way makes you a decent human or guarantees a better world. It's flawed logic. A platitude.

The idea that giving all your money away makes you a decent human and or it would create a better world is just flawed logic.

Tbh i don't see a problem with this take other than people don't like it.

Why have I never heard this idea, you're a genius. Can we ship this next week? This current approach is a net negative, but the TLD idea actually makes sense to me.

False, it's whomever pays at all. I don't know if you've looked at online advertising costs, but their very affordable. We aren't talking super bowl ads. mine is "whomever wants" unless you're arguing that

I would honestly ask why you believe people of privilege should be allowed to ignore laws that are inconvenient? You'll get no argument that our immigration laws aren't broken from me, but isn't it the purview of congress to

As a JavaScript monkey I believe you have a point, and this was the core of my original question. How many contributors to gentoo are upset by this? Probably none. How many potential contributors to gentoo are upset by this? Maybe dozens? I

This might get me in trouble, but with all the negativity I’m seeing here I’ve got to ask. Why do you care? Their sandbox their rules, and if you care because you want to contribute you’re still free to do so. Unless you’re an LLM I guess,

so, you have no answer. I'm proud that anyone who wants to can spread whatever info they want. I love that I facilitate that. Every election year my income almost doubles, why? Because people want their opinions heard. I'm glad I

So you can’t think around that corner I guess. I guess you do believe magical gnomes would enforce your ban on government propaganda in ads.

If you can't think around this corner I can't help you, Who will prohibit it? Magical Gnomes? If you say the UN let me remind you that the UN is comprised of Governments, the majority of which are considered autocracies. So in sho

Let me get this straight you think for the betterment of humans we must control the information and opinions they should have because fundamentally they're nothing but stupid animals who can't process information?

by dizlexic 1y ago
I love this moronic take because it's governments that will enforce what information is deemed as propaganda. 10/10 cognitive disconnect.

by dizlexic 1y ago
yeah, propaganda isn't inherently lies or misrepresentations. It is biased, but are you advocating the removal of all biased advertising?

by dizlexic 1y ago
Why? Cynical is believing people must be protected from opinions. I'm far more optimistic than most.

I believe an individual is responsible for their own opinions. I also believe that people should spread their own opinions however they can. Personally, I think my outlook is much more moral than someone who wants to silence others. Objecti
