    To not see ads in articles and still see at least headlines of what is going in the world. I’ll sub to many news outlets for stuff I don’t even read just because much of my online presence is fairly absent of algorithms and that has resulted in me not knowing what people are talking about too many times, even if it is stupid. Sometimes a single YouTube title and thumb nail is all I need to see to know something happened in the world. So this way the things I want to see, and things I don’t want to see are separated, so I have to actively to go out of my way to look at it. Its not blasting my mind palace 24/7 will bullshit every time I want to look at a picture of a cat or whatever.

    I also use it to add YouTube channels I don’t watch, but again want to keep up with trends so I have a large list of popular channels, and ones that I know will make a video about clickbait nonsense. So they are the canarie in the coal mine for me on certain issues/topics.

    That way none of it gets loaded on my phone my RSS server handles it, I can view it from there. Also I don’t need to load up 700+ channels every time I refresh my newpipe subscription on my phone. I also have sit down and view channels separated to my pipepipe profile on my PC. The channels on my phone are more listening/podcast like experiences.

    I also subscribed to a bunch of small things, gaming projects to get updates, or comics, etc but they get buried because I don’t seperate my feed and its been less useful. Its just not in my habit of checking my RSS feed for that kind of stuff. It used to be more useful for fun stuff when reddit let you use it with RSS but I think they stopped that? Its feels like you can turn less random news pages into RSS feeds these days too. So yeah now its mostly kind of a boring place that aggregates all of my news and world info.






  • Yes and no. Cheating is for tinkering or messing around with mechanics in a sandbox like game IMO.

    Ived cheated in games before and I just burn out faster and ruins the experience. I even go as far as won’t use mods if they feel unbalanced or ruin the vibe. Sometimes I’ll use them, but if the game has mods I’ll try to beat it vanilla first as it gives me a lot more context on what mods do and what i want from them.

    Some games its just fine to use cheats. Really depends on the game and the experience but mostly the awnser is no.

    They’ve been trying to move to make their own build in mod manager and I think they want to start pay walling it or treating it like a appstore where they get a 30% cut.

    Maybe it wouldn’t be so bad if you could use script extenders but all the worth while mods that are not just re-skins and cheats, we need actual scripts not just .BSA files.

    So I’ve given up on Bethesda. I’m hoping there is a future project like openmw but for skyrim special edition and people can just use that as a base game engine to do whatever with.





  • In have a feeling much of reddits recent changes are to try to appeal to other ais as a cleaner source of data now that its “properly” being auto modded. Iirc reddit lost the Google contract it has for ai training data so they probably want to clean it up now. I also want to remind everyone that was the reason you couldn’t use third party reddit apps after that point.

    Like a year ago now almost facebook was going through a similar issue with mass bannings and I remembered there was talk about a lawsuit. A lot of boomers got offended the ai banned their facebook account when the ai flagged family photos as csam and thought it was a legal threat. It was a really large number of people and their subreddit was normally dead was constantly active with non stop complaints.

    I don’t known much about other social medias but I know once tiktok got bought out by Israeli interest it also got the same treatment and you can’t meantion Gaza or Israel at all. The whole issue with tiktok was Republicans accuse them of brainwashing kids with trends like tide pod challenge to make them stupid, while their native version in China only promoted education and self improvement for their children. It was also some how a security risk because facebook could not just buy them out like they did with Instagram I guess. Basicially palantir wasn’t getting its fair share of data, and too much info that’s bad for business can exist on it.

    That along with the required photo IDs getting forced globally, socialist revolutions happening every where I feel as if its pretty clear that we are not going to be allowed free speech or freedom of information. Its not even that far fetched anymore private equity owns hundreds of top YouTube networks/channels now, and if they’re not owned by old media all the other podcasts and whatever are literally limited hangouts, or the host just brings on CIA assets and grifters and let’s them brainwash people into scams.


  • That’s why they want to change the name to data campuses.

    Even with all their ai slop machines, Israeli back ai search optimization websites they can’t wrote enough fake news and AstroTurf on reddit enough to beat out the natural flow of information.

    So they are going to try to switch to “super intelligence” or “data campus” so that their fake news outlets/web outlets they own can directly profit off the new wave of slopaganda.

    This is oversimplified but ai is essentially just a predictive text model. If the 90% of the internet says ai data centers are bad, statistically the ai is heavily going to repeat those sentences it was trained on. This doesn’t make it right or wrong, we only like halicunations when they say something we agree with. Never can an ai present something as a fact, just by the nature of ai its always a hallucination.

    So if we suddenly start telling everyone to call it super intillegence, and data campus and only all the major news outlets and Israeli ai astro turfing bots, and web articles go along with it then then only news about it will be positive. They suddenly own the narrative, and when dumb dumb investors go to google “super intelligence” they can no longer see the obvious public outrage that is actually hurting them.

    They are resorting to bribing individuals to get data centers installed. We are applying pressure we just can never give up the fight, never stop calling it slop. Because your words to hit the bottom line.

    You matter, you voice your vote your opinions matter and it hurts them now that more of the world is starting to collectively revolt around the epstine class.


  • I don’t think he’s concerned with being seen as gay. Just look at how he dresses.

    His words are he doesn’t want to be considered feminine so I think he’s more worried he’s not a mans man enough. He wants people to know hes not a sissy he only wants masc on masc, full musk, rough trade gay sex. Full tom of Finland type shit, I’m gonna dock my hog in your bigger hog.

    I think submissive bottoms naturally get insecure sometimes and want to feel big too.


  • It kind of is real money. A lot of these stocks are tied to peoples retirements. People do invest in these things because they are told to and its a good idea, which it is. I think trump started giving kids stocks as a way to prop up the ai economy even more.

    Like I get what you mean but it still is real money some where lol. You can be right on some fundamental but also come off as ignorant. To do what you suggest with shorts would mean I would have to get a lot more involved, and my incentives start getting mixed up. Instead of feeling joy when I see stocks to down I start to worry because now I have to use my brain and try to figure out if I bail now accept my loss, or try to use some “insider knowledge” I’ve gleamed from polymarket or whatever and start gambling my money against people who are rigging the money at a scale that I can’t even imagine. I would have to spend all day reading articles and listening to news and buying 10k courses from the PBD podcast, when private equity runs the stock market with ai and makes grand sweeping decisions that wipe you out in a instant.

    Over time my opinions are going to become warped because I don’t see the world as how it should be, and how it needs to be for me to keep making money as a leech. Suddenly I start viewing Palestinians as terrorist because I’m invested in a company that’s making automated turrets to clear way for the trump hotel in Gaza. The alternative is I get a real job and become a normal human being not tied into a death cult.

    Maybe i was going to short openai a year ago, and then all sudden they so something I would of never even imagined like buying out all the worlds stock of ram, and their stock goes up 500%. That’s gambling and they’re just using your own greed against you.



  • Need a new device. If they’re really serious about it they might start requiring you to loging through google/iPhone which require phone numbers to register.

    But you should be able just to use a different nontainted phone and sign up just fine. I’ve done it on my pi and an extra phone through vpns and seemed to work. This hasn’t been recently but I got banned maybe 6 months ago and made a few burners.

    You could maybe try a virtual machine too, just never log back in on your primary phone.

    But I agree with everyone’s sentiment don’t go back.




  • Man if I was a reddit mod I would be fucking up so much shit. I would be such a bad mod intentionally and just start blaming it on reddits automod and just trying to piss off as much people as possible. I’d want it to end up on subreddit drama and people to make a 5k comment thread arguing about how shit reddit is before mods lock it down.

    Its not even like they destroy the subreddit they just give it to the first person that asks. And sure you’re a dick and people dislike that, but that’s your role in the moment. I forgot the subreddit but you can go there and admins just hand out access to 2-3 people at a time. They check in on progress for a week or two and then are out. 90% of the time the other people don’t do Jack shit and will be to ashamed to show up again after not doing anything so its basicially your subreddit. I think I was a mod in 4 sub’s all less than 350k and never did anything and regret it now that I’m banned.

    So if you guys wanted you could slowly infiltrate a bunch of low level sub’s and just fuck with reddit for the hell of it.
