Window shopping on a hookup site is one thing, it seems a bit like some people have just not gotten the memo that that's not what a long-term relationship looks like. Superficial stuff is nice but I'd rather find someone I really, really like. Can't really window shop for that though and it might take a long, long time to actually find out if the feelings match reality.

Apparently a large amount of people are essentially casting someone for the role of partner though. Never really taking down their personality defenses, never just being themselves. Because that's being vulnerable. 1800s style. I'd rather stay single.

sexual desires are being able to be fulfilled illusionary and in a fantasy world.

Aren't we pretty much there already? Dating and being together is about so much more than sex, the loneliness epidemic has other causes.

There's a spectrum going from someone just posting stuff and getting paid to shameless exploitation of vulnerable people through parasocial relationships. The latter can be very lucrative.

Meanwhile I just noticed that my mobile provider (Congstar Germany) will be completely phasing out their online customer center in favor of their app. They already removed functionality from the site, like seeing how much data you have used this month. Why? The answer is in their huge list of third-party cookies I assume.

I'd argue that knowledge is more than that, otherwise books or state machines could also be said to know things.

True, really wish that could just be a them problem though.

I agree, there doesn't seem to be a good way to make voting not at the very least semi-public anyway so just stop a) pretending the information is protected and b) remove the not-a-disagree-button-but-totally-a-disagree-button. There is a report link for rules violations, maybe a separate one for spam would be good as well, otherwise, I don't know, just allow people to add an actual poll to comments if they want to?

They convey time instantly, without reading. You don't even need the numbers for them to work. It's like showing a progress bar versus just giving the percentage as a number.

Is this one of those hacking tools?
