No, censorship doesn't change definitions based on who uses it. Unless you want to pretend like you're not censoring. You seem to have convinced yourself that your censorship is a form of moderation, very sad. You're free to censor whom and what you want, it's your site. Don't pretend it's moderation though.

Your guidelines are meaningless if censorship is so heavy handed and moderation non-existant. It's hard to moderate. It's easy to censor.

Anyway you have curated, through censorship, a place where people are afraid to share valid opinions that break no guidelines (except those magical ones you can produce in order to censor). You can congratulate yourself on that if you want. You've got a ghost town, whether you like it or not.

What rules did I break? I'm confused.

Edit: Ah ok an IP ban. I guess time to use a proxy. Moderation has rules. Censorship does not.

Censorship is bad dang mmmkay?

Editing again to post later cause you nuked replies for some reason:

Sorry I don't conduct in personal attacks. I think you're confused. Feel free to list whom I attacked and where.

A cheeseburger with neither beef nor cheese is not a cheeseburger.

A vegan sandwich would be right.

Do you also call a caesar salad a salad cheeseburger?

DOGE promised the world and delivered small wins. The normal politician does this and does not deliver a single win.

I'm surprised people are forgetting that the person who predicted the coming wars against his personality was himself. He basically told everyone what was coming... then it came and people still fell for it.

Elon is a loser socially and that's about it.

There exists a huge amount of Musk derangement syndrome these days.

Elon Musk is a great businessman and develops great products for general consumers. There is not much wrong with him other than his online persona... which most normal people can ignore. He's probably more normal than any other business leader.

What's weird is people lumping in some of Elon's actions with falls in Tesla sales as if he didn't:

1. Predict it

2. Gift the whole world the motivation to do it

I don't care about Elon Musk. He's a good businessman and a weird personality. But it doesn't take a genius to realise that he can't lead a winning product unchallenged, forever.

A vegan cheeseburger isn't a cheeseburger.

You act like this wasn't just the same as it has always been.

It's always been cycles of cheap production and then human created demand or catastrophes to reduce supply and increase prices back up again.

Would that include free use LLMs. I assume getting into something would be tricky if you are assuming they're going to drop several hundreds of tokens a month on it.

I feel like the tendency for people to assume others have nearly $500 or so of credits on their AI to blow every month is kinda crazy.

Reminds me of the "just get Netflix, Prime, etc." ending up with a $100/m bill.

No there hasn't.

Wait until you see how cars are made now.

Comparing it to other products made by machines that actually have reduced in price since 1995 like kettles, LED lights, pc components, peripherals.

Cars should be far cheaper but they're not, and that's on purpose.

We think we know. But we don't.

Chickens think they know. But they don't.

What, you weren't alive when the last mass extinction event occurred? Why didn't you communicate or at least write the last handful down or something? Aren't you smarter than a chicken?

It's funny that you think we know what happened to humans anymore than a chicken knows what happened to chickens.

It's not subjective. These are objective historical constraints. History isn't subjective.

Living quality is not subjective either. Though living pleasure is subjective. Unrelated here.

Bold of you to assume people will be writing in any form in the future. Writing will be gone, like the radio and replaced with speaking. Star Trek did have it right there.

Those areas aren't better to live in. They're just older parts of older towns so they don't have much wiggle room. The wiggle room was amazing for the more modern countries, except now we wiggle in a different direction too. An equal middle can be seen in Asian cities in Korea and China. They mix high density with high quality of life and little self sacrificing.

Neither US or Europe do living areas well due to their historical constraints.

Starts with a tax on taxes. The richer you are, the less tax you will pay. This is a cost to the entire nation as most people aren't rich and most people require the benefits of taxes.

What laws are they breaking?

I haven't reduced my thinking!

You just detailed an example of where you did in fact reduce your thinking.

Managers who tell people what to get done do not think about the problem.

Imagine voting for a party that wants to build more housing to solve the housing problem.

Now imagine the people who don't want more housing (for some reason) end up burning all new houses being built in a state.

Now imagine crying about how the people who want the houses to be built to solve the problem are still wanting more houses to be built.

Turns out it's harder to solve a housing problem when the houses keep getting burnt down. Who'd have thunk?

Let me check.

Population of democracy vote for something.

President of democracy enacts stronger power for that something.

That something gets done.

People who disagree with democratic powers doing what they said they were going to do want to stop it by force.

That something now gets done, by force.

Sounds justified because it is.

"What percentage of your code is written by AI?"

"I don't know, what percentage of your sweater is polyester?"

"I don't know, I think it's all cotton, why do you ask me such a random question?"

"Well surely you know that polyester can be made far cheaper in a plastics factory than cotton? Why do you use cotton?"

Yes. It's pretty bad.

Another question.

Why did Covid cause every government to become authoritarian on the directions of the WHO which couldn't even, itself, verify what stance to hold authority on.

No there is objective logical UX.

If you click a button that says "Change payment method" it'll change the payment method.

If you press the card on a "which payment" window, it'll use that card.

Unfortunately objective truths are very boring.

Tech is basically just a big political echochamber for the last decade. The camps have been built at the oasis for both sides. Sad.

I couldn't actually get past this websites terrible UI.

I'm none of those things. Are you going to answer the question?

I don't know what that has to do with my comment.
