I agree with that. I do that all the time.

What do you mean by reddit data exactly?

I feel like in popular rating culture the statistical mean is like 7 out of 10. I blame IGN.

Yeah I agree with this. I think these people lose sight of how many people have visibility of the channels that they spout their bigotry in. From what I remember of Discord, there is a sidebar on the right which lists the people that are online. But you never get notified when a new person can see your messages even in the case of restricted channels.

It's a tough problem to solve technically but it seems like neither the people being outed not Discord cares.

Discord has become a nexus of bigotry of sorts. Everytime someone gets canceled nowadays it's because of the abhorrent shit they said in Discord somewhere.

No one gives a shit

Seems like something was changed by G*ogle which broke Newpipe's extractor. It's used by Newpipe, Tubular and Piped so all three broke. Invidious and Freetube work for now. Freetube is an app so you can try that if you want.

But my founding daddys!

This is why you all need to vote. If we had blue judges in the Supreme Court this would have never happened. As long as you vote we will have democracy back in about 300 years.

I lack the "competitive spirit". I used to play sports a lot and was above average in the group I played I played with. While I think competition in sports can be and is generally healthy, I always saw it as an extension and normalisation of the zero-sum attitude that my capitalist neoliberal political economy is plagued with. India doing well in international cricket is always intricately tied to the self-worth of the nation while children beg on the streets. Competitive entrance exams to colleges after high school are seen as some sort of test of merit while the ratio of applicants to those who pass these exams is about 10:1. Meanwhile, job prospects are not guaranteed to be good for those who pass, and for those who don't pass the job prospects are pretty much non-existent. With the background of India's massive structural unemployment and underemployment problem, ten children are made to sit in cutthroat exams. 9 are then told that whatever misery befalls upon them is a result of their own inadequacy. This doesn't even take into account the innumberable children who do not get the opportunity to take these exams.

I just checked out of this shit. I am privileged because of which I have been able to. But this shit never seemed right to me even when I was a baby-brained child. Just watching colleagues trying to do numerous small dances to increase their job prospects and make their linkedin profile more attractive tires me.

Won't help as much as chucking this dipshit into an active volcano

Yeah. It's not a case like how Truss and Sunak became British prime ministers.

 

Not playing any of those games at the moment but I found Rise more fun as a newbie. So this has always confused me.
