yeah.

I made a comment in a match thread and got the alert on the little bell icon that usually means somebody responded

But instead of a response it was an auto-message that said my comment had been removed because my account is too new and doesn’t have enough Karma to post. But this auto-message also said something like, “message the mods here” and then had a link I could click to message the mods of the World Cup sub, so that’s what I did

And all I was doing was explaining that I’m not a bot and I’ll take a picture or whatever to prove it, I’m just a dude who signed up for reddit that day just to post in the world cup match threads. That waiting days before being allowed to post isn’t the end of the world but considering the World Cup is a limited-time event, not allowing me to post for days would mean I wouldn’t be able to post in match threads for 12 or 13 of the games (at that point there were 3 or 4 a day)

So I was just asking if they could lift my ban considering the circumstances

But they came back and questioned why I had no posted anywhere else on reddit.

So I told them, “I don’t really like reddit. I don’t have any interest in posting anywhere else. I’m literally only here for the World Cup match threads”.

And I guess me telling them that reddit sucks was a trigger because the response I got back after that was super nasty

It wasn’t until later did I think, “I be the World Cup sub is a sub created by reddit admins themselves because of it’s popularity. So I bet the mods of that sub are people who work for reddit. And I just told reddit employees I think their site sucks shit, hence the nasty response”

It’s just a bit ironic because it was their chance to change my mind and prove that reddit doesn’t suck. Instead they banned my entire account and just kind of proved to me that everything bad I think about their site is not only true but actually much, much worse

I got banned for making an account just to post in the World Cup threads but the sub wouldn’t let me post because my account needed to be older and have a certain amount of karma

This “you can’t post message” came with a note saying I could message a mod and then a link to click to do just that, so I did

I explained I wasn’t a bot, I was a human, I’d prove it however they wanted, but I couldn’t really wait days to post because the World Cup is happening now and in 3 or 4 days I’d miss like 12 games

They responded saying that I had zero karma and had not made any posts…

So I replied that yeah, this is exactly true because I don’t like reddit I only signed up to post in the World Cup Match threads

I received a very nasty reply where they told me that reddit was super popular with millions of users and that it wasn’t their problem I didn’t like reddit and then my account got banned

I believe the World Cup is super popular and so it’s not just a random sub ran by random people in the world… but a sub made by reddit and moderated by reddit employees. So I just told a reddit employee I hate their site and so they banned me

It’s a pretty shit site

In other words, the average person is dumb and so they’re entertained by dumb things

“You like money and sex? Me too! We should hang out”

Garfield is notorious for being lame to the point where there are no real jokes… Garfield comics are just Garfield saying the same thing everybody says

For instance, I googled “Garfield Comic” and the first one that showed up was Garfield walking up to a mirror, Looking in the mirror, walking away from the mirror, and the last panel had Garfield think, “when did the cat in that mirror get so old?”

There’s nothing to that comic, It could have been one panel if you really wanted it to be and that “joke” is the same thing my Grandma said when we walked past a store with a reflective window

And that’s all this PizzaCake comic is

Literally everybody was like, “if they’re so proud why do they cover their face?” – it’s the political equivalant of, “If it didn’t ring up it must be free”

This shit sucks

thats more creative than anything PizzaCake has ever written

Make fun of them all you want, but maybe don’t go with the most obvious jokes of all time

This is the political version of, “it didn’t ring up? It must be free”

PizzaCake is political Garfield

It’s not clever, it’s not funny, it’s not edgy, it’s not smart… it’s the predictable safe, tired, thing and for some reason people eat it up

“HAHA, Mondays do suck!”

“Right, why cover your face if you’re so proud?”

Genius level creativity here, definitely not the same tired joke everyone makes all of the time and have been making for years

If I sprayed them with a hose would it waterboard them?

You don’t have to but we don’t have time to get to know every single person in the world on a personal level, and the way someone looks can tell you a lot about them

I always heard it as, “you wear a hat to be associated with other people that wear that same hat”.

You put on a cowboy hat so that people assume you like big trucks and country music.

You’re free to walk around looking like human trash but then also you shouldn’t be surprised when people assume you are human trash. Remember, you don’t always just represent yourself. You represent other people in your social group. Like if you’re a teenager you represent teenagers.

The assumption is that all the nerds that play cards at comic book stores are fat, dirty, and stinky because enough of the nerds that paly cards at comic book stores showed up fat, dirty and stinky that this became the stereotype.

Had they all shown up in suits we’d probably have a different opinion of them. It doesn’t matter if they’re nice people, we have no idea, we didn’t get the opportunity to talk to them… all we know is that they look mega-gross so we assume they’re all mega-gross. And now, if you admit that you like playing cards at comic book stores, we’ll all assume you’re mega gross too

So, it really would have been helpful if enough of them had cared what others thought of them enough to clean up a bit so they didn’t destroy the reputation of all the other people who wear that same hat

And if you’re a business owner, if you let people look like this in your business, it can hurt your business. There’s a reason we all assume Wal-Mart is trashy as fuck and that’s because the people shopping at Wal-Mart have a tendency to go there looking trashy as fuck. So much so there use to be a website dedicated to looking at all the insane ways Wal-Mart shoppers dressed

Depends, I would say it’s a show of respect

I’m aware other people are around and I’m going to present myself in a way that is un-offensive to those people. And not just other customers, but the staff as well

Does it matter at McDonalds? no, McDonalds is a pretty casual place where you would expect people to show in casual attire; be that pajamas because they’ve been being lazy all day, suits because they’re at lunch during work, or dirty clothes because they’ve been doing manual labor… whatever

But showing up to a nicer place in casual clothes basically says to everyone, “I have about as much respect for this place as I do Wal-Mart or McDonalds”; it can also say, “I don’t have much respect for myself” too. As in, “I’m too lazy to even put on clothes so I just walk around in my cookie monster pajamas”.

Neil respects nothing, and we respect Neil for that

You could change and become a better person… or not, whatever.

so let me get this straight, you called AI worthless because it didn’t do anything new and just a tool for idiots to use, then you spent a week dishing out homophobic insults towards me, I got banned for being a shill, then you followed me here, picked right up where you left off, dished out more homophonic insults, and then finally admitted that LLMS have actually been around for years and do have use.

When asked about the insults you decided to justify your embarrassing homophobic behavior by pretending that this is just how you talk to people when you’re calm and collected?

That’s actually seems much, much worse to me.

“I’m not mad, I’m always a hateful jerk”

It would have been better to say, “yeah, I’m sorry man, I was having a rough week, my emotions got the better of me.” But I guess just straight up admitting that you’re a full-time homophobic bully works too I guess

That’s all I want to do

If I paid for it either on disc or something like Amazon I would like to DL a copy I can keep

I’m not trying to download the summer blockbuster currently at the movies or anything. I’m not trying to just download a million movies and have a massive collection I never watch. I just want backups of the films I already paid for

Which is a small handful of films I bought so I could one day watch them with my kid when they’re a bit older

“Hey, remember that time I called you a shill? Fuck off and go play with your Virtual Boy.”

“you stupid fucking shill.”

“you can be a stupid shill and know nothing about the greater concepts of what you shill, you’re a perfect example of that”

“You just love sucking dick.”

“you just love sucking dick, compensation doesn’t have to be financial for you to be a shill.”

“Holy shit, man, fuck off already.”

“Get a fucking life.”

“Just walk away, dumbass”

“You are one insecure little man”

“you’re just fucking stupid and insecure”

“Get a fucking life you insecure little crybaby.”

– That you?

do i need to use a VPN or anything?

Father, Son, and The Holy Ghost… I believe

AI is what we call LLMs, don’t be willfully ignorant, you know that. When people say they are going to “Goggle it” that doesn’t mean that they have to use Google. Some people refer to all soda drinks as “Coke”. Saying “AI” instead of “LLM” is fine. LLMs are a subset of AI anyway. But more importantly, semantics don’t matter, you’re just desperately trying to distract from the fact that you said it was a useless tool that doesn’t do anything new and is only for idiots

Advocating? I just said that you were free to hate it but it’s not going to go away and people are going to look back on these, “AI is dumb” posts the same way we look back on newspaper clippings of people saying the internet was a fad

You got mad, not me. You didn’t have to reply at all, you chose to. And with a lot of mocking anger. I didn’t call you a shill or accuse you of being a lying sack of shit that sucks his bosses dick. You literally just said, “You’re just fucking stupid and insecure… get a fucking life you insecure little crybaby”. How are you going to type out all of that and then claim I’m the one that’s mad?

I just showed you that it’s popularity is increasing. It’s now in 88% of businesses. It’s not the Virtual Boy, that was a product that was never popular, not even for a brief amount of time.

Nobody liked the Virtual Boy, nobody used it. It sold like shit and was gone in less than a year

That’s not AI. Comparing AI to the Virtual Boy is terrible analogy, probably the worst I’ve ever seen

My original argument was that you could hate AI all you wanted but it wasn’t going to go away. That people will continue to use it in the distant future and that 20 years from now we’ll look back on people who thought it was a stupid fad and laugh. Just like how we laugh at old newspaper clippings of people saying the internet is a fad… that’s how we’ll view people who think AI is a fad

You were very unhappy about that. I couldn’t be more wrong. I was so stupid for saying that you accused me of being paid to say it. You accused me of sucking my bosses dick and even went so far as to say that I’m so fucking stupid for saying that, I don’t even work in software.

And not just you, I literally got banned from that sub for being an AI shill for saying that. When I explained that we use AI Agents to document our meetingss, manage our pipelines, and do baseline reviews for Pull Requests, I was told straight up that “AI can’t do any of that”

Now suddenly you want to back-peddle all that homophobic bullshit about me sucking my bosses dick and act like, actually, you do know that LLMs have use and that you’ve known the whole time they’re super useful and have been for years. Which is a big step back from your original claims that AI was, “entirely pointless” because it, “doesn’t do anything new” and only for “idiots”

lol, fuck off

Because I don’t care if a I like someone or not, I’m not going to lie about what actually happened
