Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

Found while poking around today: the Wikipedia club for cleaning up after AI.
@blakestacey Super depressed that people were using the rubbish plagiarism machines to edit Wikipedia anyway. I donāt understand the point of contributing if you donāt think *you* have anything to contribute without that garbage.
There are the weirdest people who make ācontentā out there. For example, I saw a āhow to start the gameā joke guide on steam, so I went to their page to block them (to see if this also blocks the guides from popping up, doesnāt seem so) and they had made hundreds of these guides, all just copy pasted shit. And there were more people doing the exact same thing. Bizarre shit. (Prob related to the thing where you can give people stickers, gamification was a mistake).
@blakestacey
I am disappoint.
āThe purpose of this project isĀ notĀ to restrict or ban the use of AI in articles, but to verify that its output is acceptable and constructive, and to fix or remove it otherwise.ā
psst itās to search and destroy
no one has seen this coming, no one
