Videos are a terrible way to communicate small amounts of information and these comments aren't super insightful so I guess I'll just move on.

What I don't understand is why people wound even want to use this app...

What possible appeal could it have?

How about instead of worrying about making it more popular we concentrate on making it better?

Eliminate all the shitty worthless content and spammy replies that people brought over with them from the shit hole that shall not be named and focus our efforts on creating quality content that users (particularly the ones that are already here) actually enjoy and engage with.

That's my two cents on it anyway.

This article is total bullshit.

It claims at one point that vapes are being marketed as "nicotine-free" "despite containing nicotine" and then links to another article on their own site that makes the claim that vapes marketed as "nicotine-free" "most likely still contain nicotine" to support that assertion.

This definitely doesn't belong in a science community.

Colorado used to disallow collection of rainwater too because people further down the line supposedly had the rights to that water.

You're now allowed something like 2 - 30 gallon barrels to collect it here now.

That man has got to legitimately be one of the stupidest motherfuckers to ever luck his ass into a pile of money.

How about if normalized not fucking linking YouTube videos for topics that seem like news?

I will read an article but I'm not going to click through and watch some random ass length video from some random ass "content creator" who probably has a worthless opinion to begin with.

Are you fucking kidding me?

That's some of the stupidest shit I've ever heard... Hell, that would even be fucking stupid in 1998.

I wish articles were still just articles.... I don't want to read an ad for a stupid podcast that I won't listen to or YouTube video I won't watch.

The trick is you have to pretend that you're actually a "tech company" to avoid all the regulations that apply to companies that are honest about what business they're in.

I admittedly stopped reading halfway through but I feel like these newest vulnerabilities being discovered are probably just fucking government back doors the manufacturers have been forced to include.

I think basically every single top level comment has zero understanding of what a short time 20 years actually is.

I also expect almost everything that is acceptable today will also still be in 20 years, including nearly every example suggested in this discussion.

The world simply does not change that fast as a general rule.

Not to sound like I'm going full r/hailcorporate for Hilton but I've not seen them pulling shit like that yet.

Shaving sucks.

The real question is why shaving should be normalized, expected, or encouraged in modern society.
