Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid!
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.
Vitalik Buterin:
My parents said that the car was āthirstyā if the gas tank was nearly empty, therefore gas cars are sentient and electric vehicles are murder, checkmate atheists
That was in the replies to this, which Yud retweeted:
Um, well, actually, mortality was a precondition of humanity, not of sentience, and that was in āThe Bicentennial Manā, not I, Robot. Itās also presented textually as correctā¦
In the I, Robot story collection, Stephen Byerley eats, drinks and dies, and none of this is proof that he was human and not a robot.
Why are techbros such shit at Lojban? Itās a recurring and silly pattern. Two minutes with a dictionary tells me that there is
{seldikca}for being charged like a capacitor and{nenzengau}for charging like a rechargeable battery.Also Yud: I canāt be a cult leader, because I dress funny.
Person replying to someone saying they are not a cult leader by comparing them to another person often seen as a cult leader.

But he didnāt include punctuation! This must mean itās a joke and that obviously heās a cult leader. The funny hat (very patriarch like thing to have) thief should only count himself lucky that EY is too humble to send the inquisition after him.
Bless him, he didnāt even get angry.
Nobody drills down to the heart of the matter, why would this prove you are not a cult leader, and what does this say about somebody like Charles Manson, who also dressed funny and sometimes was disrespected by his cult members (he was anti drugs, and his followers well yeah, not so much) does this make him also not a cult leader?
Lol at the āwhere can I join your cult?ā in the replies. Also literally text written on the walls, also not very crazyperson style look.
it is true that he would vanquish Derek Guy by just sucking so much
Do these eejits really think something that lives on a computer is immortal?
