Some of the boards use a system called tripcodes, which are essentially a username and password in one that are used when writing individual posts. It allows people to prove that they’re the same person across multiple posts, without anything as identifying as a user profile attached.

If he’s been at it long enough to paint a wooden sign about it, I think the authorities are aware.

It’s sad that the guy attempting to correct your joke got more upvotes than you.

Their comment was a joke, in case you missed it.

This is way better than the OP.

Brother, you wouldn’t blow 2-3 cocks in an 8 hour shift if that was your only duty? After the first week, you’d be so good at it that you’d be “working” less than an hour a day.

You’re probably lactose intolerant.

You didn’t really respond to the core idea of my comment, which is that AI isn’t doing anything to help us achieve the things that we would actually want it to. And what about the safety concerns around current-gen self-driving vehicles? It’s easy to call everyone primitivists if you refuse to acknowledge their legitimate points.

I think the core issue here is that, so far, AI has only taken away jobs that people want. People want to be artists, writers, and even programmers, and those are the only industries to be disrupted by AI thus far. If AI were to reduce society’s need for manual or emotional labor, I think you would see far less reluctance to accept it. Also, the self-diving car thing, from the outside, just looks to be a matter of public safety. I think most people would agree that cars will be able to safely drive themselves eventually, but the ones currently on the road feel underbaked and rushed along by a greedy cabal of tech industrialists.

Sorry for the down votes, you’re 100% valid. YouTube Premium benefits me and the content creators I watch. Sure, it’s more complicated than that, but everything is, and sometimes you just have to make choices that make your life a little easier.

Literally.

Then what the heck were you saying? That a family might keep a couple goats around? Because I think that still counts as demand.

While I think factory farming is abhorrent, I find the most compelling reasons to eat plant-based to be the environmental ones. Therefore, I think “I only eat a little bit of meat” is actually a huge positive step someone can take. If your primary concern regarding meat is the cruelty of taking the life of another animal, that’s completely valid, but compared to the others, that square just feels out of place.

If you close your eyes and imagine a future Star Trek utopia, are you still imagining borders? It’s a pretty standard opinion that borders are an outcropping of our worse natures and should eventually be left behind.

Semi-gloss is shinier than satin and less shiny than gloss.

I didn’t realize this wasn’t universal until upthread, but Americans refer to all ground beef as hamburger or hamburger meat.

I don’t know what to tell you guys, hamburgers are made of hamburger, and mince sounds gross.

I just found out spinach is crazy high in them too! I love spinach…

Only one worth using! Up top!

My car got stolen this morning. I feel this in my soul.
