They said a new "open" category would replace the current male category and be open to athletes of all sexes.

I'm ok with this.

3 months for "dismissing concerns"?
Nah, the cowards did this

Wrote a 11 page essay, just with chatgpt. I didnt add or change anything myself. The text itself was superb and im still baffled by it.
Friends of mine did the very same.

Wish me luck. We either get a fucking good score or were doomed

Why is your second post ever admitting to cheating on exams?

Quote
I referred to the thread because i used the bot myself. What the hell does it matter what my second post is?

Quote
Why is a post you made admitting you cheated on exams? Universities take this very seriously so you better hope there's nothing traceable. Its cool that you're proud of screwing over your peers, though.

This thread is gold. From cheering not having to pay for commissions to admitting to exam fraud. You all prove the problem with this shit before it starts getting really bad.

It is going no where. According to every single content creator that I follow they are getting insane amounts of feedback from their shorts. One said that he got 7k new subs off a single 30 second clip. Which was more than he got from all the videos he released that past week.


It is unfortunately here to stay and they are set to starting putting ads up for them soon lol
Quote
Shorts are a legitimate cheat code for traffic, especially gaming ones. There's almost no real way to pinpoint why this is the case but it's true. A simple clip can get you so many views and traffic for your channel that it's fucking ridiculous. As for the ads/monetization on shorts, that was enabled 2 days ago so it's about to get even more saturated
Fucking hell, this dicks are just now realising that 4 hour monologues about why space invaders is actually a contributing factor in trans genocide isn't what normal people want to watch...

I think the relative numbers in these categories may turn out to surprise them.

Even though they'll always have felt something was off about those women.

I like how automation threatening their low end copywriting and art jobs is the downfall of civilisation. But when people voiced concerns about their manufacturing jobs getting automated it was, “learn to code Luddite wait why are you voting for protectionist right-wingers?”

It's getting harder and harder to stay strong, my agoraphobia is incredibly strong these days. I keep going through cycles but please please cis people understand what this does. Understand what level of fear in constantly stareing down. My existence is a debate, parents get angry with me going grocery shopping, people constantly stare and mock me.....

Please don't just say how terrible like, this is my life please give some kind of shit. Just angry or protective or something... fuckin anything! Call your senators, fuckin reach out trans people just something. Not to be rude but seeing in the Hogwarts thread how many "supporters" couldn't even care about literally doing the minimum I just....

How the fuck am I supposed to feel safe when we have entire swarms of hatred and cruelty thrown against us and we keep seeing people stand on the fuckin sidelines and go "how sad" and go back to whatever the fuck you were doing

:cop User Banned (Permanent): Misogynistic Commentary over a Series of Posts
Quote from: Raide
Quote from: Lumination
I don't think this is exclusive to women!
It is more female focused. Most men don't like the idea of a woman that has plenty of options because then they start to doubt themselves and rationalise why they should give up. At a psychological level, women love to compete with other women over a valuable man. The more valuable, the more they will act to get things done.

:cop User Banned (1 Month): Sexist rhetoric, previous several ban for dismissing sexual abuse allegations
Quote from: J_Viper
Raide is right in that there are absolutely women that play mind games, often very attractive ones that can get away with it.

If you want to keep up, you gotta play along.

Whether or not those are the women you want to pursue is up to the individual, but we can't pretend this doesn't happen.

:cop User Banned (2 Weeks): Sexist Rhetoric
Quote from: a916
Quote from: Raide
Personally, I tend to view all of this from a psychology point of view. I am interested in many things from a why people do things. Pretty much all dating is about tactics and games. People want to win, so they ask people to advice. I am just interested in why certain things work and don't work.
I think Raide has valid points. As much as I hate the "games"... it really is a bit of that. There is something to the mindset of showing that your time and energy has value and that giving it away so easily to someone can have undesired consequences.

Even if we step outside of the dating world, people perceive a higher value on things that are more difficult to attain.

Quote from: Tamati Hemi
At the end of the day, trans women have had many many more years of hormones and what not considering they are male and clearly have a competitive edge over female athletes. The idiocity and ridiculousness of this forum is laughable. Ban me all you want. Funny how you ban someone for "dismissing transphobia" yet would be up in arms over "womens rights". The whole world is laughing at you clowns...

 :mindblown what the fuck

"just bend over" could mean a number of things, maybe it means you're submissively accepting it in trade for what you get as a consumer (not rape, just a transaction)

maybe you're bending over and receiving spankings

but then I suppose any implication that anyone receiving any negative bodily actions would be kinkshaming

I like how the first couple of bans are about "How dare you imply that women are like that? That's sexist" and then when someone says "I wouldn't want to date women like that anyway so it's good that they don't pick me" the response also is "you fucking sexist" lol

Also weird how they're supposed to talk dating without even the tiniest of assumptions about what women like? The idea that a man who has many options of women to date is considered more desirable is hardly rocket science.

Remember it's ResetEra. Women have no independent thoughts or desires. They only exist to diversify the Smash Bros and Marvel roster, help JK Rowling with the trans genocide or to be raped.

In fact biological women don't exist.

Escalated even more

Quote from: Omoi
I'm sorry, are you familiar at all with the British press?

If there is an apportunity to blame the poor for their own living conditions, they will take it. I don't really think that's a radical take. The fact that they aren't doing that here, is a stark departure from the norm, and as I said, I would bet a considerable sum that this piece is partnered with a column that places the blame squarely on the shoulders of the people being subjected to these things. This isn't ideology this is just.... being an adult who can read, in the UK, in 2023.

Quote from: B-dubs
Again, have you not read the article in the OP? Because you're literally saying shit about it that is blatantly false.

Quote from: Omoi
I don't know why you're so insistent to carry water for the Tories and their client journalists here. These ghouls are perfectly happy to champion absolutely every single policy that leads to this inevitable conclusion, and then feign surprise and concern when the people they deeply despise on every level are shown to be suffering as a result of these decisions.

Do you think Grant Shapps gives a fuck about a single mum of three freezing to death in her council flat? Of course he fucking doesn't. Do you think the Times "journalist" who writes this piece does? Like fuck he does. It's theatre, it always has been and it always will be, and simply because the scale has tipped to the point where the press has decided to miraculously become aware that problems exist on this rancid little island, because the position of the current government is rapidly becoming so untenable that even the full weight of the press can't distract the public from their failings, doesn't mean that we need to be applauding these dickheads for doing the absolute bare minimum.

Of course the events described in the article are abhorrent. That goes without saying. That doesn't make criticism of the outlet publishing it any less valid.

And to answer your question, I read the quotes in the OP, but as a general rule, no, I'm not going to click on a link to the times, because I've got better things to do with my day than have to read a bunch of headlines about how I'm a child grooming rapist.

Quote from: B-dubs
None of this actually disproves my point that what you said is demonstrably false. You're digging into ideology because that's the only argument you have.

Yes, the Torries suck but that doesn't mean that this reporting is bad or dishonest or wrong or undercut. This is a good piece of reporting that people seem to be eager to tear down because they dislike the Op-ed pages of the paper.

Quote from: Omoi
I think it is dishonest, or at the very least disingenuous, to look at these events, and not interrogate the decade or more of policy, and yes ideology, that has lead to them being so prevalent. The reporting in the OP would seem to indicate that these events seemingly occured independent of any wider systemic factor, or at most, were caused by the war in Ukraine and nothing else. Saying "It's so horrific that debt collectors are forcing people to freeze to death in their own homes" and not then follow through to "Why are energy companies incentivised to do this in the first place?" is not really doing journalism of real quality at all.

Is this the birth of a new excel? She gets so fucking mad while making claims about an article and paper she herself admitted doesn't read.

How can you discuss dating on Resetera?
Well you can talk about how you taught a non-binary person 20 years younger the tools of the trade by slowly entering their asshole, pounding away and finally have them suck you dry on a one night stand. Only to spread an STD that you didn't know you got at the furry convention.

Candlelight dinner? Flowers or chocolate? Beach or forest walk? Why don't you go and sign up for the SS while you're at it creep. Sounds like you need a vascetomy you fucking transphobe.

Well you can talk about how you taught a non-binary person 20 years younger the tools of the trade by slowly entering their asshole, pounding away and finally have them suck you dry on a one night stand. Only to spread an STD that you didn't know you got at the furry convention.

    It doesn't help that we have an actual moderator in here accusing anyone defending the act of funding life-changing surgery for a 1000 people as idolising Mr Beast.

Administrator, technically.

Also, everyone here is pretty much on the same page with regards to the surgeries happening. Where we aren't is whether or not these acts prevent criticism of MrBeast from an anti-capitalist lens.

These are two different points of discussion. I could break down the conversation for you better if you need more help comprehending.

:cop User Banned (Duration Pending): Sexist rhetoric, prior severe infractions
Quote from: jfkgoblue
Quote from: J_Viper
Raide is right in that there are absolutely women that play mind games, often very attractive ones that can get away with it.

If you want to keep up, you gotta play along.

Whether or not those are the women you want to pursue is up to the individual, but we can't pretend this doesn't happen.
Having a relationship with those women would be a nightmare anyway so if that’s why I get filtered out good riddance

Sexist rhetoric? :wut
All women are perfect innocent angels. It's sexist to say some of them may like high heels, may carry hookup knives, might have superficial preferences, be sociopaths, have impure motives, enjoy being sexualized, etc. Except those fucking TERF BITCHES and white women, of course.

spoiler (click to show/hide)
Yes, I will defend you (rhetorically (as a group (with exceptions))), call me ladies. :success

I'm not blaming the technology. I'm saying, and even you're agreeing, that the technology won't actually fix these big issues. In fact, it may exacerbate things. So why should I be excited? I get to continue receiving racist treatment and be out of a job I enjoy doing? Great future you're advertising there.


The AI advancements are particularly bewildering to Nepenthe because it forces the hand of her insular personality -- that she may have to confront the fact that instead of focusing on her own gratification and enjoyment, she may have to see the value of labor as something about providing use and value to other people.

since the current crop of AI isn't really intelligence but based on crowdsourcing patterns of text and reproducing the general gist of what you might find in response to a prompt, the next cause will be "keep shitty ideologies (i.e. views I don't personally like) out of data indexing so AIs of the future will be free of <insert undesirable here> values"

which once again becomes america imposing its values on the rest of the world, so that some guy in ecuador is relentlessly corrected by chatgpt that he should be using the term latinx

I like how automation threatening their low end copywriting and art jobs is the downfall of civilisation. But when people voiced concerns about their manufacturing jobs getting automated it was, “learn to code Luddite wait why are you voting for protectionist right-wingers?”

Quoting these together so I can point out how quickly all these "artists" like Nepenthe became menial laborers who are interchangeable cogs rather than the special elite class of inherent worth and talent they thought learned skills indicated they innately were.

It shouldn't be surprising they're reactionaries who hate the levelling that democratization of technology brings considering how much value they place on status and everyone knowing their place.

Let's drop the extensive derail about Microsoft leaving the games industry, please.

That I have to step in twice in two days to ask people to stop derailing isn't great. You all know what this thread is for, and you all know what this thread is *not* for. Don't derail it. If there is nothing relevant - no new updates, etc - then don't spin up a barely-related side-discussion. Just don't post.

At least we can trust Keffals not to play the damn Wizard Game in the middle of Joanne's genocide. Can't say that about a lot of "allies" right now.

So, to give a bit of direction, we're going to allow discussion around why MS might want to acquire, as that's broadly on-topic. While the topic of Xbox's management might be tangentially-related, it is outside the scope of this thread, so please drop it. If you want to talk about that, pick another thread or make a new one.

We have reinstated the post friction settings that were put in place a little while ago, meaning there is a delay of 5 minutes between posts, so that we can slow this down a bit, and we will be going through posts and reports.

And before any of you chuds try to gotcha me with "hypocrisy", I don't have the privilege to cancel Humble Choice even though I always knew something was off with them. What store where I get stacking discounts and a supply of games do you think I should rep instead? These kind of bad faith attacks on me even though I am Mod Admiral is why I'm so tired and should start carrying a hookup knife too.

I like the one guy/gal in the huge twitter list by Benji that's like: "I'll check out one copy of Hogwart's Legacy for myself, to give an ethical review."

Like that ResetEra user did with Cyberpunk. Good stuff.

Can't wait for people to start scrutinizing others' trophy list/achievement list/steam library to see if you dared played "The Wizard Game." It's another juicy angle to witch hunt people in their eyes. They can't help themselves.
