Ah, I see. I thought you were watching this as some kind of ASMR or something. I heard some people like turning on the TV while they work cause that makes them feel like there are other people in the room and so they feel less lonely.
People used to be obsessing over ambient soundtracks with rain and waterfall sounds or whatever, and now it's sounds of a chinese kid writing code in the background? Explain to me the point of this.
I think this is all due to the fact that there were much less people on the internet before then there are now and also because nobody really knew how to commercialize their posting back when the internet was fresh.
>like always being pursuant of likes, shares, fame, etc
Typical human behaviour. Who doesn't want a little bit of fame? Well, maybe perhaps that one sigma male but he's just the 1%.
>But it shouldn't be too far-fetched to say that we tend to ham things up for the camera to a ridiculous extent now.
Like how someone would spread made up stories or over exaggerate minor events for attention? Yeah that always was a thing. Probably started back when Tharg told the whole tribe that he saw ten mammoths in the valley (there were only three).
It's not that I condone all the slop-posters and attention whores, I just think that they are a natural phenomenon. What the internet did was give everyone a global voice, so people naturally started exploiting that. There probably was a period when the internet was very new and strange so people weren't quite sure how to use it, but now that it has become a core element of our lives and every joe and his grandmother has access, we get to see more people trying to get a profit from posting rather than just doing it for fun.
So yeah, I kinda agree with you in a sense, but I also think that the current state of the internet is just a consequence of basic human behaviour.
I'm not a fan of a lot of the modern trends going around due to the internet. A part of me feels that it's weird how people would do crap like record tiktoks in public, but a part of me also realizes that perhaps it's not too bad. We've evolved to this stage and there is no going back, so we just gotta wait and see what this all turns into.
>But, I never got to experience the early years of the social media scene, so I might be talking out my ass here.
Personally, I am more concerned about the consequences of allowing AI to replace our jobs than AI physically killing us. If we develope an AGI which would be able to do all our work for us, what would happen to humanity?

Your friend's behaviour reminds me of that one time when I was playing some team sport in a highschool PE class (I think it was volleyball) and then I made a mistake and everyone started shouting at me. I told them that I don't even care and left the court. Got dragged back in by the coach though.
I was told that people who like commenting on others' mistakes do so because they are insecure about themselves.
There are many sites that I actually support which get money off of ads. Running an ad blocker all the time would mean depriving them of whatever little income they had from me viewing those ads.
Absolutely*. The items depicted in your photo are a form of cutlery known as memecutlery. They are quite extraordinary and therefore valuable as collectibles, but are actually of little practical use. It was believed that combining a spoon and a fork into a single utensil would improve dining efficiency but it turned out to just add more problems. The Foon is obviously the most problematic out of the two because it fails to serve as a proper fork due to having no pointy endings and also fails to serve as a spoon due to having such a small slurping volume. The Spork is actually a controversial topic because many believe it to be useable, but I once had a very traumatizing experience with it therefore I am not gonna support it's usage.
*I'm not strictly a professional, but I have invested a lot time into studying spoons so I personally believe that I am qualified enough to assist you.
Zamn, it's fire.
Idk, try it.

This is the first time this information was shared here so you're not late to anything, you're right on time.
And even in your dreams, the anime frogposting website still haunts you. Let it go. Close this chapter. Soyfags won, this is the end.
That's gonna be around Saturday morning for me, but I'll see if I can join next time
I wonder what my last post is gonna be like. Perhaps "Ha ha, what are you gonna do with my doxx? Airstrike me? LOL!"
Me neither. I will focus all my attention on this post.
Personally, I am more concerned about the consequences of allowing AI to replace our jobs than AI physically killing us. If we develope an AGI which would be able to do all our work for us, what would happen to humanity?

I was about to believe in this but then I saw Key in the video and remembered what day it was.
edit: nvm, I think that was actually Cory Booker. I had no idea who Cory Booker was but he looked very similar to Key.
edit2: Wait, wtf. Is this actually real???

I don't know man. It's not very nice. I'm not sure if I should be posting about this here. Might need a NSFL tag even. But fine, ok, I will tell you.
It was too long for a comment so I made a post.

I wanted to get one but they sold out so quickly.
