• On the post: Max ‘Enshittifies’ Itself By Making John Oliver Harder To Watch

  I think this is, all in, a pretty mediocre take and waters down the term "enshittifciation". Delaying free YouTube content, while showing it earlier for paying subscribers, is something that's been around for years and a very active part of promoting YouTube Channels. "Early for Pateron Subscribers", or "One week early on Nebula" is a pretty common refrain among my the highest quality Channels I watch on youtube. I mean, is LegalEagle, Hbomberguy, Philosophy Tube, MinutePhysics, Extra Credits, Real Engineering, Forgotten Weapons, Wendover Productions, Half as Interesting, and Knowing Better Enshittifying?

  The Boring Company is an outright scam. Neuralink isn't anything yet, and may never be. SpaceX has been profitable for one quarter. Tesla is on shaky financial grounds as it is. Long term, I don't think most of his companies will be much at all...let alone driving a big reset.

  You care deeply of what others think, which is why you're willing to do anything to get a modicum of attention.

  They didn't create a strawman, they attempted to identify an actual argument somewhere in that insanity.

  Your hangover from the binge drinking and posting last night finally wear off? Libertarians don't know shit about liberty. It's always been a grift.

  "large generic speech platforms" are not a thing. It's at best a phrase shared by you, and what appears to be a college sophomore. Nobody, and I mean, nobody else uses such an asinine phrase. Also, specific speech vs. generic speech is also irrelevant. And if ANYTHING is true about Facebook/Twitter/etc....it's that they are a MARKETING platform. Ads.

  Censorship is the act of the censor, silencing opinions based on viewpoint on platforms the censor controls.

  This sentence is a complete word salad, and irrelevant.

  It can't be that bad, most of the business world seems to get it right, most of the time. There are dozens of automated tools to do the bulk of the work.

  The comments, if to be believed, imply Tesla made the whole thing out of a really shitty stainless under corrosion conditions. Which fucking checks out because the Cybertruck started with a stupid name, and clearly went down hill from their.

  Then stop talking as if you do you dumb fuuck I neither know nor care if you, in particular said that, but lots of commenters on this site have, including Stephen Stone, who’s suddenly acting coy on the subject.

  God-fucking-damn, you're just terrible at this. For someone who's so fucking concerned about appearing smart you think you work harder at things like: * Not contradicting yourself in your follow up post * Read the articles. From the original source. * Understand the articles. And not just read for what you want it to say * Definitions. Just know them. For lots of words * Understand the law. Any of it. Most of it. * Stop transparently fabrication of basic components of stories.

  It's your fucking job to support your fucking argument. It's incompetence to suggest anything else. And since your lie ALL. THE. TIME. not a word you say can be taken at face value. And everyone treats this way. These are the results of your behavior.

  I feel like you're trying to make a point here, but I'm at a loss to what it is.
