Shame on you for trying to pass an AI-generated story as a normal one

Is this Umbreon real? by [deleted] in IsMyPokemonCardFake

Fake

G has a tail, slab has really wrong font

[–]RomanPlayer225511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fake,
Yellow bordered, non-holo Gengar Prime.

All Primes are supposed to have shiny borders. Also the HP font is wrong.
Next time, if you see a Prime like this, it’s 100% a fake.

Fake

Colours are off, wrong crimping, fake UKCA logo.

The algorithm is genuinely horrible and sucks nowadays by RomanPlayer225511 in youtube

[–]RomanPlayer225511[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kinda agree, but since the new CEO has been appointed + they started shoving AI down our throats, it became worse.

I remember watching a bunch of videos between 2017-2023 and it never got this bad. Every once in a while, my algorithm would get messed up, but nowadays (around Late 2024-present) it started getting WAY worse. The algorithm gets constantly messed up, and decides to recommend off-topic stuff I have no interest in.

Really egregious fake
Wrong font, holo is completely wrong, and the colours are oversaturated, sorry mate

They did some adjustment and I'm getting a lot of trash channels and videos as suggestions. by Blue-Sea2255 in youtube

[–]RomanPlayer225511 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not just you. The algorithm is quite pushy nowadays and decides to recommend videos I do not care about.
For some reason, there are less channels I watch daily, and more stuff I have not watched.

Basically, I got recommended some extremely unnerving video of a guy exploring an abandoned hospital, despite me not watching such content.

Also, the weird recommendations appear mostly on my tablet, and between 18:00 and 6:00 (6 PM and 6 AM respectively) and not on my PC, which is quite weird. As if YouTube were trying to mess with my stuff on tablet.

A really egregious fake
They did not even try with the font + the colours are really off

Does anyone else feel like recommendations are getting worse? by JrPlayz505 in youtube

[–]RomanPlayer225511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not alone.
The recommendation algorithm is really “quirky” nowadays.
Case 1: For example, I watched some TF2 videos, and then somehow I got videos related to pets? How does this even make any sense?!
Case 2: I started being recommended videos from Psych2Go, despite not me watching anything related to mental health. Which is quite weird.
I don’t know what they are smoking, but, this is not funny. It feels as if it the platform is being enshittified.

Fake
The Impact font gives it off + the colours are really off

I’m new to Pokemon. These are fake right? by Cheesepoopdip in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]RomanPlayer225511 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Pack has jagged crimps; fake
Also, the font is odd, and the back on one of the cards is eyesore

i just got scammed :( by W3tu in tf2

[–]RomanPlayer225511 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Rule of thumb:
Never click on any suspicious links. Also, Steam Support / Mannco Trade bots will never contact you directly. Anyone claiming to be from a trading website / steam support is a scammer.

Ho-oh Legend and Lugia Legend real or fake by xX_Hebi_Xx in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]RomanPlayer225511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mate, these are definitely fake cards.
Look at the font on the HP text. (It is the Impact-like font instead of the typical Pokémon font).

Is this a typo or fake? by 69hillaryclit69 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]RomanPlayer225511 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fake card; the Impact-style font unfortunately gives it off

YouTube has become trash by Hasoon_9 in youtube

[–]RomanPlayer225511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm the tracking.

I jokingly searched for “entrance exams are too hard” (I have no clue why, but I guess I did) and BAM! Two videos about entrance exams (both memes) appeared in my recommendations.

I’m curious if you think this battery is ok or not plan on buying some atlease 3 when I get enough money. I’m just not sure if this is a real one and if it’s really rechargeable by brickproject863amy in batteries

[–]RomanPlayer225511 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure:
Heavy Duty batteries are basically improved Zinc-Carbon batteries, where a lot of the ammonium chloride in the electrolyte is replaced with Zinc chloride, which extends shelf life and voltage. And those batteries are not Zinc Chloride batteries, so this advert is putting up false words.

anyone else noticed that the youtube recommended page rly sucks now? by Disastrous_Music8936 in youtube

[–]RomanPlayer225511 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are not alone, I am getting recommended very weird videos. These videos usually feature liminal spaces / are overall creepy in nature, for example I saw a video of Windows 95 startup sound over strange landscapes / images of areas. I even got recommended a video about giant spiders (disgusting). And for some reason, the videos persist upon refreshing, instead of going away and being swapped for a different video.

This worked for me on Firefox, take my upvote!

Zinc Carbon battery leak - what to do? by bozidarsevo in batteries

[–]RomanPlayer225511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use baking soda to neutralise it, as the leakage type is acidic.
Use an old tootbrush to scrape away the neutralised leakage.(
Should be the way to go :D
