  • So apparently full stops in texts are 'passive agressive' now. What other unwritten rules for texting have changed over the last couple of decades?

  • This isn’t new. I noticed this back in ~2001.

    People are just catching up to me.

  • TIL adults who frequently post on social media are at more risk of developing mental health problems than those who passively view social media content

  • The introduction is talking in the third person, because it links right back to the page you are on.

    It’s just a blog post, not a site. Kinda cringe how they get that wrong. It would be better if it was a stand alone site.

  • If complaint depts actually existed and were intended to be helpful, the current relationship with customers would be better.

    A ton of the negativity these days comes from knowing you are always talking to an ineffectual drone who possesses no power. And often times they also seem to lack any motivation to have any empathy. Due to low pay, shitty policies forced upon them, and being forced to do the support over the phone.

    The way everything is structured today is just terrible. And it’s in part because these companies insist on growing to a scale where good support is impossible to provide without major price increases. It’s all fucked.

  • Seems like an awkward conflict. If the generated material can’t be copyrighted and the characters are “licensed.”

    Can I copyright my ai output if I put my own copy-written character or IP in the corner? Does a logo count? What about a dancing logo character?

  • I didn’t have any political reasons. I just grew to dislike the writing style. I became disenchanted by the style of the videos.

    I’m still up for watching new Contrapoints videos.

  • I feel like iFixit has always talked out of both sides of their mouth. It’s one of those situations where it becomes clearer over longer and longer timescales.

    They are a business, not a non-profit organization.
