Unfortunately in this case the problem is you (as a non-frequenter of this sub (which is explicitly about dunking on these fools)) coming in with no context, although I’d agree with you in principle otherwise

Also it sounds like that game-EA thing could do with a sneer on techtakes

What killed lurking before posting, and can we blame WOKE? (just kidding!)

I do wonder if seamless federation can be too seamless, since it clearly makes it easier for people to get a bit lost and wander into niche forums unintentionally.

Absolutely magnificent that this guy took a break from posting about OLED WLAN DNS SKU TCL and 800 ISO without bokah at like f/16 to come in here and chastise us for using in-group terms.

800 ISO without bokah at like f/16

on film, handheld, at night. for when you love grainy images and need every part of the frame to be blurry, but specifically not the kind of blur that looks good

fuck, now I have a hankering to grab a medium format camera and a fast (for medium format) lens and take some weird black and white closeups of whatever I see that’s lit interestingly

and even with multiple outs, they had to get indignant. some people...

[-] froztbyte@awful.systems 8 points 5 months ago

Probably also to blame is whichever clients people end up using - sorta seems like most don’t make it easy to see the details of a sub (although I say that under correction, not having tried them all)

I’m using Arctic, I’m easily able to look at the community sidebar, which I did. It seemed like it was dedicated to just roasting shit, not anything in particular, which didn’t help my confusion. I was hoping it was a community dedicated to taking the piss out of something/someone specific. Looking at it now, I see that following the link in the first sentence kind of explains it, but if you’re just skimming the sidebar the note about AI shit being acceptable really makes it read like it’s not targeted towards whatever the fuck this effective altruism thing is.

I’m sorry I was browsing Lemmy by all while I took a shit, stumbled in to your community, and totally derailed the entire conversation and immeasurably ruined your day by making a post that somebody else commented functionally verbatim hours after me.

[-] self@awful.systems 14 points 5 months ago

how are you this unable to shut the fuck up

[-] blakestacey@awful.systems 14 points 5 months ago

Mastodon has Reply Guys. Lemmy has Cater To Me Whilst I Am Literally, Not Figuratively, Taking a Shit Guys.

[-] sc_griffith@awful.systems 7 points 5 months ago

I uh... thought this rule had been in place the whole time. you mean the rest of you haven't been...?

[-] froztbyte@awful.systems 10 points 5 months ago

5 posts and not a single sneer among them. dry out there today.

[-] Soyweiser@awful.systems 7 points 5 months ago

I'm going back to reddit, at least the idiots from /destiny /redscare and /stupidpol didn't have this level of blown up self importance. ;)

[-] blakestacey@awful.systems 11 points 5 months ago

banned for obnoxious not-pology

[-] froztbyte@awful.systems 14 points 5 months ago

(idly, didn't mean that aggressively. wrote it pre-coffee, but, yeah)

[-] blakestacey@awful.systems 11 points 5 months ago

I'm trying to think of a polite way to say "in short, no" and "the linked tweet having "effectivealtruism" in it twice should have been a clue", because I'm not that mean, but I probably need more coffee too.

[-] froztbyte@awful.systems 9 points 5 months ago

"I'll take 'cases where the wallpaper would have been a clue' for $200, Alex"..

[-] borari@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 months ago

I mean in my defense I literally said I realized what was being talking about in my post.

Careful with that one, it might bring out the people who want to redo 2015, but worse.

Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]
