Do people not know this copypasta anymore lmao why are you catching heat for that

Is that more of a 'big expensive city' thing or is $65k generally considered low in the US? I'm not from there so I am trying to put that into perspective

I built a Discord bot a while ago that I later added a Patreon for, which adds some extra features. I don't make a lot of money with it but it covers the hosting costs and leaves enough for an extra night out every month.

looking at files inside the temp folder … otherwise known as … are you sitting down? You really should sit for this … temp files!

The point OP is making is that those people would not put 2 and 2 together to understand that the files they were looking at are called temp files, just because that's the folder they found them in. They may not even remember the name of the folder, only that it contains a bunch of files with a prefix they're now googling.

Not sure why I'm bothering explaining this to you, the way you responded makes you look absolutely insufferable, but maybe someone else who comes across this will find it useful.

Asking someone their country of residence is privacy intruding? Lol

I am from Germany

If you were really from Germany, you'd never have given that much personal information up voluntarily!

Walter Masterson makes similar content sometimes which I've been enjoying instead. His channel is a lot more opinionated overall though, and he makes better use of the political platform imo.

This isn't about responsibility, it's about preventing suffering. If you could prevent a genocidal leader from being born, which you knew would save hundreds of thousands of innocent lives, why wouldn't you? Because it's that person's "responsibility" that all of those innocent people died after all?

Nur noch eine Überwachungsmaßnahme Brudi, dann wird's bestimmt besser

I'm too terrified of dying to an irresponsible driver, so as much as I would like to bike everywhere, I'll keep taking the metro for now. They're adding more and more actually decent bike lanes so hopefully one day...

Why couldn't they just serve the comments to each client with the ad-adjusted timestamps already? The only thing the client has to request then is the comment page it wants to load, and some unique ID for which the backend remembers which ad version it's associated with.

I'm mostly just glad to be in a country where it is more socially acceptable to be direct. I would be a bit more formal than the original email, but the rewritten version seems really watered down and tip-toed in comparison.

I think that is changing through ChatGPT and the likes though, even it's non-English output has a distinct American tone to it that I'm starting to see more in professional emails. I have seen too many literal translations of "I hope this message finds you well" already, it's kinda ridiculous

I will say, for a mainstream US news outlet this article wasn't as bad as I was expecting. Maybe just because there's no way to spin this anymore, but then again some outlets will just parrot IDF statements as fact
