Her Evermore Park video is also a banger

their recent video was both the #1 thumbnail on chromecast after my youtube video ended and on the trending section of newpipe today. i've never interacted with their content I personally find it unwatchable, but guy is getting a hard push clearly

I’m unclear what percentage is bots and what is oblivious people with nothing useful to add but a compulsion to contribute anyway.

I'm convinced (without evidence) that the bots who have wholesale taken over that aren't just copying and pasting are LLMs instructed to respond "in the sarcastic tone of a redditor".

With bots being the majority, any actual human who enters the conversation either emulates that style to fit in, or to seek the upvotes/approval of everyone else who gets it for responding in that way.

The LLMs then train off this new, more toxic engagement going forward, creating an Ouroboros-esque race to the bottom

I worked somewhere with legitimate Aerons once. Was the only office chair I've shared workspaced on that didn't have either an odorous reek or armrests picked to bare foam.

Project Farm on YouTube often rates Ryobi, Husky, and Harbor Freight brands as being pretty good.

it also makes it a lot harder for skeptics taking a look at their account to reveal they're a bot. When every actual post is a clear copy and paste but the history is mixed with comments that seem legitimate it takes more digging that's just not worth doing

I work for the ~~phone~~ delivery company. I've had a lot of experience with semantics, so don't try to lure me into some maze of circular logic.

This would result in you being sent to the brig: Log in to your account, and for a week, all you get is a view from inside a prison cell, no game menus or options at all, rofl.

shooting at dead bodies also put you in jail but I think it was only for 15 or 30 minutes or something certainly not a full week

Either that, or just straight up obsolescence like what happened with some bionic vision aids

Just stops working one day, or eventually an exploit will drop that will never end up patched because the company folded. or due to planned force-upgrade

The classic little brother defence flipped as prosecution. It was the controller all along.
