They also have a moderator who told me that Ukraine probably blows up their own buildings, and deleted all comments in the conversation when evidence proved otherwise.

😂 it's always interesting to click the "why are you showing me this" button to see just how wide a net they're casting. (Before ruthlessly clicking it to waste the budget on their stupid untargeted ads, then blocking it)

Hi! I work with google ads every day, it's my job, and I have a business running ads for other small businesses.

Guess what, I use an ad blocker!

If all ads were innocent businesses trying to sell things I'm interested in, and they all had their targeting set up correctly, it'd be great. Unfortunately, all my ads are "you are male and under 60" and that's as sophisticated as the targeting has been set to, so they're totally irrelevant, terrible ads.

Also, my other issue is that some advertising platforms have really low standards for what you're allowed to show. Google at least has some standards and is sometimes overzealous with its automated disapprovals, which hopefully makes its platform a little better. But I don't get to choose which platform ads I see when I visit someone's site (and Google pays very little when compared to other platforms)

They're just cheap shit. I don't buy cheap shit, I have a premium chair that I bought used for a fraction of the price, cheaper than a "gamer chair" 🫣

I have fun, whilst sitting on a super comfy chair made to be adaptable and ergonomic so I can have fun for longer without fucking up my body. 🤷‍♂️

With a gaming chair, you're also overpaying for bad posture and bad materials. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Yhc6mmdJC4

It just makes me think 'kid that got scammed and follows trends to fit in', not 'fun'

The issue is, yeah they're comfortable, but they're not comfortable in a good way for your body. You slouch and fuck your spine up. Also you look like a teenager, do you have a racecar bed too?

Depends whether that 5 year old lives in Gaza

I've had this multiple times.

Tried to leave a big detailed helpful negative review and it gets flagged for being suspicious, with no copy of the review attached so I have to write it all again. And then it gets removed again.

I just looked in my emails. The exact phrasing was "We have reviewed our decisions and concluded that the product you received is authentic. As a result, we removed your review specific to this product. This ensures other customers see reviews that reflect the current shopping experience."

Most recently it happened with a body trimmer, where I never questioned the inauthenticity, and then a zojirushi travel mug that I genuinely believe was a fake, and attached a lot of evidence.

Sorry, yeah I went from k2 to k2se. It's tough. Lots of waiting around for resources really, with no way to expand without them.

I think this is where I draw the line, it's a bit too grindy for my liking. K2 was a perfect amount of 'extra'. I love the thought of se but having to make a new base for every resource is getting tiring even when I've blueprinted half of it in advance. Also a married man with a 1yr old and a business to run. 3 hours sleep is my life.
