I love how when new waves of people discover old technology, there are always these types of fundamental questions.

Firefox has been here for a long time. Plenty of people use it. Casuals don’t care about what browser they have installed. That’s the entire conversation!

The actual interesting part of these questions popping up is the staggering lack of awareness. We can click your profile, and, as I’ve linked above, see you try Firefox for the first time, ever. Then, you proceed to ask fundamental questions like the one in this thread without referencing that you’re brand new to the software, or that you haven’t bothered to look up previous discussions.

As for being the “reasonable conservative” in the room, well, I’ll let that speak for itself.

Your entire argument applies to books as well.

It’s a bad argument.

Those schemes are more fly by night and don’t last long.

Websites that sell illegal products are almost always based in a place where the product isn’t illegal or enforced.

Hey dumbo, you quoted the guy, sure, but then you immediately wrote a quote and attributed it to them that they did not write.

You’re dishonest, unintelligent, and bad at arguing. You’ve been judged.

Your comment basically assumes that everyone lives in poverty.

Which, granted, isn’t that far off from the truth, but the reality is that it takes an extremely poor person to think like you - to the extent that someone dropping $25 bucks on mac and cheese for a kid probably doesn’t share your sentiments.

If your post is hidden within seconds, it’s automod getting it most likely. Being hid from a channel by the creator means your comment just never shows up, even in their notification feed.

What you’re talking about has absolutely nothing to do with any of the points I’ve made.

Please stop typing.

That has absolutely nothing to do with what I’ve just described.

Again, this isn’t YouTube removing his comments. His comments are not being deleted. OP was simply “hid from channel” by the creator. I don’t know how else I can explain this, short of recording a video of my YouTube channel as I shadowban a commenter.

YouTube does delete comments. But this isn’t that. When YT deletes your comments you can no longer see it in even on your account.

This was a hard post to read.

You’re not shadowbanned from YouTube. The creator you’re commenting on has simply “hid” you from their channel. Which ironically is a shadowban, just on a creator level.

The level of panic and outrage you’ve displayed here despite not having a clue as to how the mechanic you’re discussing works is remarkable.

Most excellent.

Are we under any impression that this will have long-term support? Or just a novelty to enjoy while it’s here?

Mission Specialists.

They were given trivial tasks to perform to justify the title. It was in bad faith and should have rung alarm bells. But I anticipate for the luxury thrill-seeker, they may be accustomed to fancy titles for their trips, and didn’t even really think about it.

There is no set of raw data that cannot be laundered into a new system.

They removed the messages because they wanted to.

“It just works (with limited compatibility)”

“It just works”

Fair enough, I suppose we’ll see soon enough. And it may or may not be extremely cathartic. :D

But that’s the thing. She isn’t taking the L on this. That’s my point. She seems to just be chillin’, doing fuck all. Everyone knows it’s Musk running it.

This isn’t a case where he needed to bring in a fall guy CEO for a difficult business choice. This is a case where he brought in a new CEO to literally save the corporation, and she’s doing nothing and nobody is blaming her. It’s surreal.

Nobody is talking about it, but does that advertising exec that Musk hired for CEO take a massive hit to her career for any of this?

It seems surreal to have a ghost CEO who isn’t responsible for anything such a large company does. But that’s exactly what’s happening here.
