The best way to encourage adoption is to be miserable as fuck about every topic and event.

The software in the screenshot doesn’t require you to use Discord, but that’s not good enough there.

Electrocution is fatal.

It was true before the internet too, there was just less opportunities to witness it because you didn’t interact with thousands of strangers at once.

Why stop there? Do the open source apps you’re advocating run on Windows or Nvidia drivers? You could get upset about them too, because they’re also one step removed from something closed source.

Then it sounds like all that’s left to do is get 150 million people to use them.

Nobody in this thread has forbidden anyone from doing anything. If you want a soapbox for your irrelevant opinions, start a blog.

I don’t know much about the gambling industry

You can stop there. You don’t know much about the gambling industry, defending them was just an opportunity to tell us your opinions on “some people”, none of whom are actually here.

Sounds more like you just don’t know anything about the gambling industry. They run rigged games in predatory ways. They happily let organised crime launder money for a cut. They fight regulations designed to reduce problem gambling.

Nevertheless, nobody here is “forcing their way of life on others and taking away their agency over their own lives”. They’re just acknowledging that casinos have a long history of being absolute cunts.

It also makes it nearly impossible for independent researchers to uncover bot networks and AstroTurfing, just in time for fully automated AI propaganda.

The very first prompt this AGI is given will be “secure as much wealth as possible without breaking any laws that might see us punished”.

That’s not what the CEO of the company thought.

Read the damn article before commenting.

You, 46 minutes ago. I guess wanting people to make a token effort instead of demanding to be spoon fed is only a problem when I do it.

Okay, so you’re not upset, but still didn’t bother to find the answers for him.

Let’s just say you did decide to answer him though, what would be the very first thing you step you’d take? Would it be “type those questions into a search engine”?

I understand asking questions when answers might be complex or you’re actively involved in a conversation with someone knowledgeable, but I’m tired of this deliberate helplessness on social media.

You also could have done that, but you chose to get upset about me not doing it instead.

They don’t care about ill will, they care about money. They made nothing from third party apps and millions from gutting the API and selling it to AI companies.

Whatever happened to “you do you, I do me”?

Literally the sentence before that one was you being critical of pride parades, so I guess you mean “You do you (but only with my rubber stamp of approval)”

Shocking nobody.

You’re really bad at staying mask on.
