Great post!

Yep, I noticed that too, OP. And when I point it out, they claim I’m crying victim or that I have “main character syndrome” or that I am sealioning.

But you’re not alone. Other people notice this just like you do.

And it’s been going on for a long time. Way too long.

Interesting paper. Something I wouldn’t have found if you didn’t post it here. So thank you, OP!

Same reasons that ad tiers are gaining a foothold in streaming services like Netflix. The consumer has shown they are fine with it.

Yep, I remember when Netlfix first put it out there that they would start with the ads, and everyone on reddit was like, “Canceling my Netflix right now!!”

Netflix is doing just fine without the 5 redditors who actually did cancel it. lmao

Totally agree!

Great post. Thank you for this insight!

And he was right!

Ahhh, the good ole days

Change will only ever come from the workers organizing together from the ground up,

Amen, brother.

Love your work. I just donated!

Exactly! I was just saying the same thing in another post!

Whenever I see these articles, I feel like it’s part of OpenAI’s marketing strategy to use the fear-based media to pump up the sense of how revolutionary their tech is

Yep, I think that’s what’s going on too.

UniversalMonk has earned some of the negative response he’s getting.

I just post the articles that get the downvotes. I don’t write them. :)

Because your comment is there, I just noticed it, and I replied to it.

Again, that’s the same thread I posted already.

Enjoy the attention others give you!

Well, I mean, I did post a disclaimer right after posting the original article in question, in an effort to deflect this “attention.” Um, didn’t seem to work in that thread in the original community. :/

And I posted here for a technical answer since my posting history shows nothing every posted to the instance (which I’d never even heard of until today) that banned me.

But thanks for your input. I may not agree with it, but I support your right to it.

I’d just block that one nutter and move on. Are they here in the thread, by any chance?

Yep, and he’s giving you some crap right now in this thread. It’s @[email protected]

lol

Yeah I read the thread and saw how you left out the context with the screenshots proving you got permabanned from an entire instance for being “toxic”. The fake sounding comments in your history don’t convince me that’s wrong either.

I posted the link to the thread though. I didn’t leave out the context, because all the links are in that, and you can go up the thread tree as far as you want. I linked to the part where he posted the screenshot.

Also, there’s no instance in my entire posting history of ever interacting with that community. So I was curious how I could be banned from a place I’ve never posted to.

Do you have any info about what I supposedly posted that got me banned? The only two instances I’ve posted to are here on .world and a few times on .ml, and I’m not banned from either of those.

or says thank you after every interaction…

lol yeah, because I say thank you, I’m obviously fake. Ok…

But wait, I am talking to you right now. Or am I faking that too? Um…

Why did you draw attention to all of this here?

Because I had a question about what it meant. And I didn’t understand what the user was meaning and I have never even been to the instance that banned me. And I’ve received some helpful answers. After I posted, I realized that it was probably better to send to No Stupid Questions, so I crossposted. I def can see how tech people would be annoyed with my question tho, sorry!

That user just got banned from World News sub and just now had comments removed from the c/politics sub I was talking with I’m in. So now I realize that he’s actually full of shit.

And hey, if you don’t agree, that’s cool too.

Than— oops, sorry! I was just about to say it. Bad habit, I know now!
