With phones, like with other things, a bit of protective covering goes a long way.

“Troll logic” is one of my favorite memes.

Exactly like being hit by lightning at any instant has a 50% risk because either it happens or it doesn’t.

I already don’t trust any Google result that has “AI” anywhere near it, and barely even the rest anymore.

Yes, but was this specific one a result, or was it a 5 second fake because haha meme?

I’m already pretty skeptical of “AI” in the LLM-algorithm-hell sense, but that doesn’t mean people don’t make things up for shits and giggles.

Please tell me this is fake. I need to hear these words.

I distinctly remember this joke when 2000 or ME was the most recent one.

Yeah no, it’s all right, you guys - it’s a synthespian.

So don’t?

MOAR!

Oh, no no, capitalism welcomes competition, don’t’y’know.
Just as long as it doesn’t mess with the profit margins.

Pro tip: whenever someone asks you if you have a source and you say either “common sense” or “go find out”, you have just said “no I don’t.”

The videos being paid is not YT’s choice, the channel owner must’ve set that specifically on those ranks for those videos.

Being visible despite being unavailable, seen 4149743 times before, plain crap, obvious junk with 45 views on a 2 sub channel, already specifically hidden, already specifically blocked, etc. etc etc etc etc… those are definitely Youtube though.

BlockTube may have a feature for this, it addresses some of those other cases. Or you could potentially hack together a uBlock rule for it (“any video on the front page that has this stupid price tag thing”)

Source? Would love to believe it, but… I don’t.

Yeah, bad faith participation is awesome if you have an excuse.

Have you considered maybe your “participation” is just insufferable even if it weren’t blatantly bad faith?

It emphatically does not mean that. Tankies tend to shill for Russia and China (CCP), neither of which is communist or socialist. I don’t even mean that in a “no true scotsman” way, they are literally market economies with astronomical wealth inequality.

nothin personnel, kid

This is an outrage.

Which inaccurate doomer myths? Because every time I hear this, it’s “well, I’m sure that’ll be ni-aaaaaaand it’s climate denialism”

Sure. They’re so “far left” (Marxist-Leninist, allegedly) they’re all the way up an unrepentant, fascistic, oligarchic, autocratic, right wing dictator’s asshole. Presumably the “logic” is that at least Russia used to be communist, and isn’t “amerikkka” (staggeringly witty stuff, huh?), but it’s pretty clear they’re just trolls - or nearly undistinguishable from trolls. That is not effort I’d recommend wasting on their dumb asses.
