it happens when reloading a page or navigating back. it shows me a different user's account in the top bar -- worried that if someone hits stop during page load, they'd actually be able to impersonate another user's account. this appears to be random and I've seen several different accounts over the course of the day.

sorry if this is an already known bug or if it's just a cosmetic issue that doesn't actually give anyone perms.

these comments were removed for transphobia because they're kind of close to attack helicopter ahit but I don't think this is a tranaphobe making a joke, it's just a enby with an unconventional gender identity. it's not up to us to decide thir identity isn't valid. I'm open to having my mind changed - if it's invalidating others' identities somewhere - but absent that I don't think this is transphobia.

we purged a significant proportion of the site's userbase about 6 months after launch because they couldn't shut the fuck up about pronoun tags lmao

we don't have downvotes and we have an anti-lurker culture. so if we see a bad take, we reply. in this case you've thoroughly confused us with this "Saturn Devours his Son" is Russian take.

it calls into question LMG's ethics and business practices. what they did to the waterblock company of two people is obscene. they reviewed the only viable prototype the company had on incompatible hardware, trashed the product in the review, then sold the product act auction to a potential competitor. they effectively destroyed the company and in the WAN show said that they couldn't retest the product properly because it would have cost $500 - not of Linus's time, but of his employees. it's such a callous way to behave that I literally cannot fathom it.

the sheer scope of the data errors from rushed video production are the icing on the cake.

also anyone else remember the company paying out settlements to former female employees for what was suspected to be sexual harassment, forcing them to sign NDAs?

capitalist enshittification continues on and on.

who pays the journalists? who sets editorial policy? who prevents the journalists from unionizing?
