to quote the red ink on your last CS exam: Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about

yeh I know, so calling out zk proofs as “the technology behind crypto” really reads like calling hydrogen gas “the technology behind the Hindenburg”, doesn’t it.

you and your friend really should have spent any time at all looking into who runs worldcoin and how fucking monstrously dystopian it is before rushing into buttcoin of all places to defend the “valid use of the technology behind crypto” (????) you both imagined existed in the OP’s screenshot

you got banned before I got to you, but holy fuck are you intolerable

We should be people of science, not reactionaries.

which we should do by parroting press releases and cherry picking which papers count as science, of course

but heaven forbid anyone is rude when they rightly tell you to go fuck yourself

it was previously quite easy, but it seems to be getting much harder as Google locks the ecosystem down alongside their push towards manifest v3 (cause nobody can have nice things) and potentially moving their Chromebooks to Android

a used Chromebook might still be a good option for a cheap linux laptop though — your mileage may vary. if you go that route, look for one that lets you replace its bootloader. the Google one is extremely annoying if you’re running a third-party OS, because it’ll wipe your SSD and reinstall ChromeOS if you hit spacebar during boot (probably Google’s way to punish the user for straying too far from the ecosystem)

all of the subculture YouTubers I watch are colliding with the weirdo cult I know way too much about and I hate it

I bet it generates stochastic nonsense you’ll read like tea leaves

hahaha yeah nah this ain’t it

but while you’re briefly still here, you know what really helped me when I was 13 and still an absolute shithead about what I was led to believe was the one true proper english, to the detriment of my ability to write with tone and feeling?

I read achewood and I finally understood how to write with texture

anyway you won’t take this advice because you’re the type who gets off on incorrecting someone else’s writing, but for a better audience than you: read achewood and finally understand

or alternatively, and hear me out here

lecture me on fucking grammar again like a mediocre grade school teacher and get banned

[–] self@awful.systems 4 points 1 month ago (5 children)

wow! imagine if this post was funny, informative, or even fucking correct at all

I notice you didn’t give an example of the title with appositive commas though. maybe because it flows like shit?
