why are we being this philosophical in <#398973785426100234> of all rooms

2018-08-16 18:41:00 UTC  

I'm just avoiding scribble's histrionics.

2018-08-16 18:41:06 UTC  

is shitposting not, to some extent, philosophical

2018-08-16 18:41:07 UTC  

Because I'm a shitlord

2018-08-16 18:41:19 UTC  

Can't talk about anything without them dominating the discussion.

2018-08-16 18:51:37 UTC  

@Tohob >you can just delete it after
You know that they don't delete, right?

2018-08-16 18:51:50 UTC  

oh really?

2018-08-16 18:51:52 UTC  

yup

2018-08-16 18:52:09 UTC  

it's the same with social media too, you can try to delete whatever you want

2018-08-16 18:52:11 UTC  

they keep it

2018-08-16 18:52:19 UTC  

some even keep all edits you do

2018-08-16 18:52:24 UTC  

all versions

2018-08-16 18:54:07 UTC  

Exabytes of shitposting preserved with forensic intensity.

2018-08-16 18:55:01 UTC  

One day they'll feed it all into a massive deep learning neural network and it'll kill us all like Allied Mastercomputer.

2018-08-16 18:55:24 UTC  

and they will throw in your face

2018-08-16 18:55:33 UTC  

that you said the N-word

2018-08-16 18:55:35 UTC  

20 years ago

2018-08-16 18:55:39 UTC  

in a random Discord server

2018-08-16 18:55:45 UTC  

and therefore, you are guilty

2018-08-16 18:56:21 UTC  

Nah they won't bother trying to character assassinate me. When the revolution comes they're just going to shoot me behind the ear with a .22 and toss my body in the river.

2018-08-16 18:56:50 UTC  

yeah we aren't important enough for character assassinations

2018-08-16 18:57:55 UTC  

they'll use those tactics on tim, and then just keep a log of people who supported tim so we can be quietly removed at a later date

2018-08-16 18:59:11 UTC  

Tim will toe the line or eventually get unpersoned. He's definitely way, way down the list but he's on the list for unpersoning for sure.

2018-08-16 19:02:49 UTC  

I highly doubt that

2018-08-16 19:03:15 UTC  

they would take out A LOT of people before that

2018-08-16 19:03:39 UTC  

and platforms would die if that happened before they would even get to him

2018-08-16 19:09:32 UTC  

Go to Youtube and click on the Trending tab. How many videos there appear in your Subscriptions or Recommended feed?

2018-08-16 19:09:58 UTC  

The vast bulk of YT's users would never know that anything changed.

2018-08-16 19:10:55 UTC  

exactly 0

2018-08-16 19:11:30 UTC  

you are losing a very important point here

2018-08-16 19:11:33 UTC  

i hate that place

2018-08-16 19:11:37 UTC  

no one uses the trending tab

2018-08-16 19:12:09 UTC  

if the trending is irrelevant, you shouldn't care too much what goes there

2018-08-16 19:12:13 UTC  

there isnt a lot of fringe ancap ideology channels who end up on trending. sadpepe.

2018-08-16 19:12:59 UTC  

Things end up on the trending tab because they got millions of views in a day or two. These are the videos that most users are actually watching and these videos are all advertiser friendly.

2018-08-16 19:15:50 UTC  

I like Tim. I like his content. I watch basically every video he makes, and I genuinely think he's a good person. But YT could lose a hundred Tims and it wouldn't make a blip.

2018-08-16 19:19:36 UTC  

lol

2018-08-16 19:19:46 UTC  

there's videos on trending with no views

2018-08-16 19:20:31 UTC  

things with a ton of dislikes and bad view rates, still get to trending

2018-08-16 19:20:50 UTC  

trending tab gives me nightmares
