  • I think I disagree; I know the trope about metal fans and music genres etc, but I would argue that having a “trance” community and a “classic rock” community is fine because it’s the same medium, sort of, in as much as it is all “music”, but its very different and not just because of the subject.

    If the music communities were like “lovesongs”, “happysongs”, “sadsongs”, “angrysongs” etc, I think that would be closer to what this batch of AI spam communities are. Or maybe if it was a community for the key a song is in, like “songsing”, “songsina” etc


  • I can’t believe they have so many communities. It’d be one thing if it was different media, like how normal people might have a “painting” and a “photography” community, but it’s not. It’s all one big pile of generated images, and they’ve sorted it by subject… How weird is that!

    Anyway, yeah glad it’s not clogging up your feed anymore. I think that mod went into powertrippingbastards a few weeks ago and commented some nonsense bragging about how they block and ban anyone who downvotes their spam so hopefully we can all get conveniently added to the banlist.

    Yeah there’s loads of funny little quirks to the language. I actually quite like that about it, I think it’s sort of endearing and human, even when I’m frustrated with it.

    I don’t know if it’s slow necessarily, but I do know that a lot of things I build (I have to build things designed by other people, I’ve tried to push back but ultimately it’s my boss designing a lot of it) is overengineered and relies on frankly too many moving parts, which could contribute to annoying UX I guess but with all the caching we have in place I’m not sure it’s slow… I’m not a computer science guy though, I might be just too dumb to understand how slow it is


  • Sorry, I work with a marketing department so it’s just normalised to me to call it tracking despite the fact that yes, I agree with you that it’s surveillance and targeted ads are gross. What distinction are you making between tracking server-side, and spying? For me, I guess I’m talking about things like Google analytics or Google ads or hotjar or MS Carity when I say “tracking” in this context (JavaScript).




  • I honestly thought this was a joke about this character specifically. It didn’t come off as “dumb woman annoying” to me, it came off as an in-joke about how this character. I didn’t watch GoT but obviously we all know bits about it by osmosis, I thought one of the main things about Cerci was that she is like, super paranoid and reacts to plots that aren’t there, sort of a Caligula/Nero type? Or maybe Tiberius I guess, I don’t know how malicious she was written as.

    Rereading it, I can see how someone might take it as something mocking women in general but I feel like someone doing that is actively looking for something to be upset about.
