Obvious attack line: “Sensitive baby scared of criticism. Cry more, it won’t make your hyperbolic language any more effective when we can all see how scared you are of opposing views.”

Been waiting a long time for someone to just call out his microdick energy and follow it up with how you’re going to materially improve people’s lives when he’s gone.

I find Speeed is as close to the original vibes as you can get. They’ve actually got some great videos. I want to like bigtime but I’m starting to wonder if they may have been part of the problem

LTT comes across as someone who simultaneously wants to be a boss and also do nut taps in the locker room. He himself admits he sucks at PR and then does PR solo style anyways or with Luke held hostage. He often takes things personally when it’s actually a really good opportunity to show growth and standards, but I swear he misses the mark every. Single. Time. This behavior also corroborates the feelings of a staff member who left because someone higher up was creepy to her and wasn’t ever confronted because that’s the environment Linus fostered. You can’t be a boss that’s always joking because sometimes it’s serious, and when it’s serious, it’s not always personal.

MKHD Always seemed like a bit of an Apple shill, but I gotta say it just got worse and worse. It’s like he was shopping for himself and once he became a millionaire everything seemed like it was cheap if it was at all novel. He also handled that app launch insanely badly and seems like the type of dude to be impressed by anything a tech bro presents to him.

Berm Peak completely similar vibes. He’s rich, so crazy expensive bikes and accessories are almost always a great deal because they’re in his budget and high quality.

Ethan Klein I honestly don’t know why I ever liked him apart from the copyright lawsuit with Matt Hoss. I appreciated the goofs, but for some reason it took me way too long to see that some of those people in no way shape or form deserved that treatment. Patrice Wilson for example, not to mention later when he devoted his entire life to hate watching Hasan and Hasan-adjacents while being incredibly deceptive about his and his wifes views on Israel. I ditched him before all that, but man what a massive shitshow he turned his channels into.

EEVBlog got high on his own supply. He’s always been a bit snobbish, especially about sub par equipment that he already made up his mind about before opening, but I saw him talking about running for office with some dogshit platitudes that mean nothing like, “Dave’ll take it apart and fix it all” and seemed very defensive when people were asking what his platform actually would be. God complex vibes from all that.

Gus Johnson because he treated his ex like crap and ran from accountability, and is now sneaking back into YouTube through his and his brother’s account without ever really addressing his failures. He just wants everyone to move on and accept him again.

Cody Ko handled the fallout of sexual assault allegations horribly and is best friends for life with a known rapist, putting that relationship above everything. Gross guy, but before all that came out he was just a funny immature frat guy with a lot of jokes and good reactions. Major failure to meet the moment.

Scott Kilmer - just shitty political takes eventually wore me down.

AVE - shitty political views and then talking about teaching his daughter racist nursery rhymes was the final straw for me.

I felt that the outrage was solely related to vaccines and the gates foundation was the nail in the coffin for those people. Good riddance imo, why are anti science people watching a science channel anyways?

Wranglerstar was a huge disappointment, I hope he realizes his failure when he looks at Project Farm’s success. Another victim of Covid mania maybe.

I used to love AVE, but there was a video where he seemed very proud of the fact that he taught his little girl the racist version of “Eeny Meanie Minnie Moe” and I couldn’t find excuses for him any more. Then he cheered for the small business tyrant trucker revolt later and it affirmed my decision to unsub earlier.

I think the admins have a lot of ways to approach it, the question is the applicability to the problem, which can quickly change as bots adjust their approach, whether it will affect regular users negatively, and how it herds scripts into patterns that are immediately recognizable when it doesn’t fully work.

From the mod perspective I can certainly tell you it’s an issue, however the risk of making a bad call on a new user exceeds the risk of letting one through, which will self delete anyways. It seems like an admin would need to solve it through any of a bunch of methods such as allowing posts to stay up past an account’s deletion, restricting new users from posting, requiring a certain amount of community engagement first, figuring out their script to autoban, or some better solution I haven’t thought of.

“Because he’s not a republican billionaire” the sugar babies on the court only respond to one stimuli and it’s lavish gifts/vacations

Not shedding every constituent who is currently being attacked by the right would also help their strategy, but this is impossible because they have no actual firmly held beliefs.

Part of maturing, as someone who insists on solutions when confronted with complaints from others, is acknowledging that those complaints aren’t necessarily put out there to be solved. Sometimes they just want to let you know they’re unhappy to lower the expectations of them for a while or to vent. If all they want is to be left alone or vent, insisting on solutions is akin to criticism when they need it the least.

Sh.itjust.works also has one of the most abrasive trolls who ban evades and attacks users and admins. You may have unfortunately ran into them under multiple names.

These boats would have had to refuel multiple times during the trip, this has been obvious all along

He says while the entire ops team is high on “performance enhancing” amphetamines

“Failed actor with problematic past --> Right wing grifter decrying wokism” pipeline

Cuomo said he’d move to Florida, hopefully the supposed Mamdani effect at least works on him.

To the biggest degree it’s comfort elsewhere and numbers attracting numbers. To a smaller but still substantial degree it’s the same reason the top 3 phone brands have less customization and a more plug and play experience than rooted phones. It solves a huge amount of the problems with Reddit, but reddit is simpler to join, simpler to understand, feels more secure, and has so many communities and active users that even inactive communities can look active by how many people mistakenly post there.

This is suspicious vacuous for a heavy accusation, and seems likely to damage rather than help public perception of potential plaintiffs, anonymously at that. Seems overall sus

Depends on the OS. They can be chopped down by removing windows aero / transparency features among some other memory hogs, plus if it has an nvme or sata SSD then virtual memory can do some fast enough heavy lifting. That being said, I think the last OS Microsoft made that could run functionally on 4gb without significant virtual memory useage is Windows 8 and I wouldn’t wish that experience on you, nor recommend it for security reasons. If you use Linux you probably won’t need to upgrade for a long while with that easy workload.

My pi 5 acts like a normal decent computer on Linux builds but windows would crunch it.

Edit just to say that the main task you need to worry about is likely decoding. If whatever APU or GPU you have doesn’t have a built in ASIC for modern hvec then I could see it lagging significantly regardless of OS and memory size. You also mentioned browsing, which means I wouldn’t recommend staying with the last MacOS you can get for security concerns. Linux seems like the obvious choice.
