also the idiots put the weights into reddit being a trusted source obviously too high.
I used to go to reddit whenever I wanted to cut through the bullshit, I'd open up the comments.

A news video, a live video, some kind of news article.. whatever it was, you could open up the comments, and all the adults online would be like, "this or that is true or what not or this article is fake, or this bla bla" like.. you could actually get good information there.

But now, i open ujp the comments, and holy shit.. They are so wrong about literally everything, and it's all so obviously a 14 year old's take on daddy issues every time.

Like literally the most teenage takes on everything there now, nothing from a single person that sounds even remotely trustable.

You can hear the minecraft videos in the background of their comments. It's insane how fucking inept that site has become.

that's a bug not a feature, you getting the answer you want quickly isn't profitable, think shit is fucked now "What the End of U.S. Net Neutrality Means 1 day ago" now that this is blown up, i think it was already pretty turbo fucked from lobbyist since NN 1.0 days but it's gonna get worse, they will conspire together as companies the same way air conditioner repair companies do instead of competing for your business and lowering prices against each other, Chrome is already signalling a end to Adblocker extensions also

Im over here counting the days on my hand until I just can't block ads anymore... while Smart TV's are in the middle of putting advertisements on the TV so they pop up while I play old playstation 1 games.

One of the worst days of my life, I was hanging out with someone a little younger than me, just touching the generational gap.

And we were watching a youtube video. And an advertisment popped up... and I went "Oh weird you don't have adblock?"

And he goes, "I like to make sure that the creators I watch get money for their work."

And it hit me, this mother fucker was conditioned by fucking twitch streamers for him to get long dicked in the ass, not even get a reach around, and to think he's a fucking hero!

That day was the worst day of my life, and ever since then I have wished for nothing short of a species ending appocalypse.

the amazon tv unmutes itself during ads if you mute it.

I havent watched the chinese one, because, I like western adaptions. I thought this one was still watchable and good. I hope they make the rest.

you have to deal with subtitles (AI voice dubbing with fix that soon) but the entire tone of the show is way more serious and ominous, i forgot what part of the netflix show i NOPED out at i think it was just bad acting or something
