It won't help Tesla one wit. They are going to collapse.

My point was more that they will believe they have created a scalpel but it's actually a cudgel. They aren't as clever as they think they are and will mess up here.

I hadn't considered that, but looking at Elon as an example, yes, this is likely.

I have no faith in their AI efforts. They are going to flag so many random accounts.

That was definitely only a boomer and older gen X thing.

If they were different when new then it likely has to do with what threads were available at the time of production.

I think you answered a question I had: whether QLED or OLED came out first. I presume it's in that order based on the issue you mention.

This was a great comment! Where does QLED fit into all of this?

I noticed this first with AITA when it became clear that the mods were manipulating the sub for their own purposes. They would let obvious fiction in and ban people for calling it out. They also very selectively enforced standards and would only go after very specific comment types while ignoring very obvious abuse. Then I started seeing this behavior happen in pretty much all of the ask or story subs. Now you see it on Tik Tok and YouTube shorts--bots reading all these fictional posts into video shorts. It's bizarre.

My Reddit account is probably 17 now. I haven't logged in for ages, so I'm unsure. In any case, early Reddit prior to the DIGG debacle was pretty much like here. I think that the angry/edgy types had been on DIGG the whole time. It was when they went over to Reddi that it started to become meaner. Then wen subs cam out, it very quickly turned into what we know today.

During the whole API issue, I got a permanent ban from one of my favorite subs over a random and unimportant comment that included a stream of insults from the mod. It was completely unwarranted and pretty obviously was reactionary behavior by someone projecting their bad mood against the world. I sort of looked at my hands and wondered why I would ever want to spend more time on that toxic cesspool. I immediately stopped using the service entirely and moved fulltime over to Lemmy (had an account already, but I was only dabbling prior). I do miss some aspects of Reddit, but that Reddit started its painful death somewhere around Lockdown.

Even the billionaires are going to lose money. It's just unjustifiably stupid.
