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.
The ones sold in supermarkets are not the same as what are distributed to restaurants. Plus, you don't have the right equipment to make it the same way as the restaurant.
Listen if you can teach yourself to set up Linux and keep it updated then you can run any kind of computer out there. You can’t get that level of abstraction from an android.
Also IT here. I also lead teams of university students it really comes down to experience and training. My CS and INFO students know how this stuff works.
I don't really see a problem with casual dating. She's not committing to these people or lying about being committed. Alternatively, polyamory is a thing and many people live happily and fulfilled in that. None of these things are, in and of themselves, really problematic.
Keep repeating to yourself: they have an "external locus of identity". This is why they are angry, because an attack on Trump is an attack at their personal identities.
