The AI tool that I saw on there was to give users advice on “how to make your profile better”. The tips were generic garbage, so maybe after they train the AI on member profiles, the tips can be even more generic garbage.

The thumbnail image is cool

It ruins the fun, but using punctuation would have helped

They added “The Thing” to Netflix

Thank you!

Thanks for posting this discussion, I agree with the general consensus from the edit.

Thumbnails are annoying to deal with, and I had trouble the few times when I tried to address it in my own posts. It’s a lot more work to pull a different thumbnail and replace the autogenerated one, especially if you’re on mobile and just want to share something quickly. Still, if someone is posting low effort spam/clickbait often, I’d agree with a mod telling them to knock it off

This one is cool! What inspired you for this one?

I think sometimes when people see art and it invokes feelings, and trying to identify the feeling they look for what it reminds them of. Which then might spiral off into more people sharing without that reasoning

I think it’s cool! What is it?

If anyone is interested in the long version:

Maybe, but could it also be an intentional dark pattern to make it difficult to cancel?

the 51st state talk is gone

It’s not even gone, this is from a few days ago

Just do like 10 minutes of research before you buy

The average person might not know what’s reputable and what’s not. A lot of the VPN review sites are also secretly run by the VPN companies, or get paid off by them. Someone might even mix up the bad PrivacyTools for the legitimate PrivacyGuides

Thanks, I’ve edited the title accordingly

I haven’t heard of any learning curve with Jellyfin. It seems easy to set up, and the apps are about as user friendly as you can get (especially the third party ones)

On a related note, this story from 2024:

Even ignoring any ownership issues, it’s an awful service. If you look up “ExpressVPN cancel” you’ll find lots of posts and comments from people complaining that they were charged again after cancelling, that the interface makes it difficult to cancel, that they needed to reach out to support multiple times, etc.

Instead:

• Use a different VPN
• Check if you actually need a VPN for your situation

I check this guide from time to time to see if anything has changed with the usual recommendations:

This is very detailed and helpful, thank you

If you have some more time, which soundbar or AV system did you end up going with?

who has a history of listening to Nick Fuentes

Would you have a source where I can read about that? I haven’t been able to keep up with all the news

A lot of the reports are from people who are arguing in the thread, and then reporting the comments of the other person. Some are related to previous issues outside the thread/community, often related to things that I don’t have the context of. The reports rarely relate to the community rules, despite a lot of the content in this community clearly violating the rules in this community’s sidebar.
