Dam that is such a clean setup. I’d kill for that.

I think the urge hits some pretty hard. Sometimes I’m wondering why I’m doing everything i do then I picture myself relaxing watching over my family and I feel reassured im doing the right thing.

Its not a graphic urge like the anon described.

What about steve bannons salute? He’s neither autistic or excited?

This is so cool. I remember seeing that Europe is working on a massive mega project to build an even bigger reactor for more experiements. Its costing like 75 trillion

If he was gay it would be a documentary about the average /fit/ poster

Anon needs to start crashing into women at the park

I don’t have a million “fancy” cloud features and the latest software support but I don’t care. I’m happy and my computer does everything i want.

The only pain point i have is that KDE plasma 6.3 removed the option to toggle off the audio icon from programs that are playing audio. So stupid, why would i need to see constantly whats playing audio. I know what’s playing audio because I told it to play audio

dam thats a lot for a sync. I guess its supporting the project.

What’s the catch?

I dont agree that those studies change much since they focus on likes and are focusing on public social media where your likes are shown to friends. For the purpose of the discussion lets accept your premise and assume that people will vote biased based on whatever the majority like/dislike is, im still struggling to see what problem this is causing.

In your technical thread example we assume the “best” comment will be the most upvoted. But it wouldnt be considering that most upvoted will be the earliest comment that sounds reasonable enough to get mass upvotes and then it will out compete other comments via upvote bias. Since people are more likely to vote things if they are upvoted so we cant just trust upvoted comments. Here we just trust that the majority of people know best and show the highest rated comments first (if the user has comments sorted by top)

In the controversial thread you suggest we hide upvotes from people and show them comments in a random order and force users to vote before votes are revealed. So now people will see a political question/topic and enter the thread only to be greeted with random quality of comments. I fail to see the value of this. If I wanted to sort through a bunch of stupid takes I could sort by controversial. I don’t think its a good user experience to to open threads on spicy topics and see a bunch of unfiltered takes by default.

I think the current system works well for displaying good comments to the average user. If you want to see controversial comments there is a sort option that does just that. Its good to open a spicy thread and get an instant sanity check. If users are constantly having to sort by “controversial” to find opinions they agree with, that may say more about the distribution of opinions on the platform than a flaw in the voting system itself. It seems you are trying to find different ways to sneak opinions in front of people hoping these changes will change how they’re received.

Yeah the 77 idiots that voted for this are just as responsible. I’m going to go further and blame anyone who posted or memed pro trump shit. I’m never letting my dad forget how much of an idiot he is for supporting this shit.

Sorry I was wrong. Your post made it seem like this was not working at all.

No OPs point is not that there are bugs and deletions arent federating properly. OP expects functionality that doesnt exist and does not make sense and believes they are being tricked by this feature not existing.

We need a cleaner media environment. The current one is fucked.

Ok that study found people were more likely to upvote upvoted posts. They did not find people were more likely to downvote downvoted posts.

So I think it proves my point and kind of goes against your entire post. People arent down voting posts mindlessly they are doing it because they dont like the post. So why do we need to rework how down votes work?

How has anyone been mislead

Nah im not saying you cant buy new. But I like to look for second hand stuff that fits my needs.

Does ai have a place in the ask Jeeves search engine?

Absolutely fucking disgusting. This idiot has basically destroyed western geopolitics in a matter of weeks.
