This is a weird comment seeing as women outnumber men in university considerably.

Does anyone actually believe these numbers?

Musk has told lie after lie to the public and now he isn’t even “leading” DOGE.

These grifters are not doing what they say they are doing. They won’t let anyone audit their actions.

You’d have to be 5 years old or have less than half a brain to believe anything coming from these kids.

How does this article not include a picture of the ad?

[–] hightrix 4 points 1 week ago

100% agreed.

I wish people would respond to the comment, not the commenter.

Because the reason for a vote is personal and different to everyone.

If I see a post with a title containing 20 emojis, I downvote it. Doesn’t matter the content of the post.

Now, assume that post was about fighting for lgbt rights or fighting against anti-abortion legislation. Some moral crusader sees my downvote and immediately calls me a bigot. When, from my perspective, all I did was downvote a bunch of emojis.

Take that idea and expand it.

It’s unfortunate. A lot of the first movers that set up early instances during the Reddit blackout are not the type of people that should be running these things.

Think Reddit powermods but more unhinged and extreme.

Hello? We are talking about live TV.

I use pirate streams all the time but they still show ads because it is live TV.

I block ads everywhere. I think you might actually be mentally impaired.

It is live TV. There isn’t an option to block ads.

I mute the tv during ads, but that’s the best you can do.

You aren’t terribly bright. Are you.

Oh I’m right there with you. I can’t believe this was actually said in a real class. If I hadn’t heard it, I would think someone was just making up a story.

“The human eye can only perceive 60 FPS”

This was in a graduate level class studying optics for virtual reality systems.

I shit you not. I believed this for far too long.

This shit doesn’t work here.

Dumbass.

My hope is that with some of the very large subs banned twitter, like r/nba, that will have a noticeable effect on engagement and reporters will move to bsky or anywhere else.

I realize this is unlikely to happen, but a man can dream.
