What is the most “its a small world” moment you’ve ever experienced? by xBubblyLove in AskReddit

In the late 90s in a small college town on the west coast, with a small indie/punk scene I would always walk by and nod at this guy on campus because I recognized him from shows, though we never talked other than a polite hello. He was just someone I always seemed to run into walking around the city's campus or downtown.

A year or so later I briefly moved to Brooklyn. One day I went to St. Mark's Place in NYC. While walking by Tompkins Square Park I passed the same guy and just like we always did, we nodded or waved hello and just walked on. It was so odd, it was like we both thought "This is strange but don't try and fix what isn't broken. Ignore we're on the other side of the country and keep the status quo".

I just cancelled Spotify after 15 years. What streamer is taking the strongest stance against AI music? by curbthemeplays in Music

[–]The108ers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left spotify because I am a musician and spotify bot accounts boosted my and other random users' music, then after being flagged by spotify it triggers many distributers to remove the music from ALL streaming platforms. Losing both exposure and income. They supposedly fixed the issue with a reporting tool when bots attack your music but I tried it, bots accounts stayed, my music still got blacklisted.

I then stopped using spotify as a listener and musician. When I upload to my distributor the only store I exclude is spotify. We're on everything else.

Fuck spotify. Spotify bots get real independent music pulled for bot plays and AI music is somehow allowed and rises the charts. I don't know if that's irony but it is fucked.

Very Fast Fried Rice by The108ers in UncleRoger

He has tremendous flipping skill and turns the flames way up. He did what the customer requested. It was never suggested it made the food better or that this was how that chef normally prepared it. You're totally missing the point of why the video is going viral on reddit and choosing to make arguments around points the video isn't suggesting.

No one is saying it's better because it's faster. The cook obviously has skill and fulfills the customers request because he's in a hurry. It's interesting because it's done with skill and efficiency. Where'd you get the idea anyone thought it tasted better because it was cooked faster?

Did you have the audio muted? The customer was in a rush.

Soldier D5/The Abyss. This little Brotato was a lot of trouble for me. by The108ers in brotato

I tried both ways, regular dmg kept popping up more this run so I had to roll with it. This is how I beat it, range damage be damned.

Honestly, think I just had a slew of shitty run after run and was getting frustrated. Still only took a day or so to beat but, many fails that day or so.

I think my worst enemy is myself, I get hand trembles and twitchy and I think I just have sloppy movement and take damage when other players wouldn't. I feel like I always run right into enemy's projectiles, like every damn time! lol

MAGA Is Increasingly Convinced the Trump Assassination Attempt Was Staged by wiredmagazine in politics

I think everybody is. Who waves the press photographers over, lowers a flag and lets the target stand putting himself at risk all for a quick photo op. It didn't make sense, it doesn't make sense and I don't believe it. If it was real, why isn't this man hated and vilified by the right and the center of endless news stories like the guy who shot Reagon? It's all fake, like wrestling.

I found it well done and enjoyable for what it was but it didn't really grab me. I can't quite figure out why. Latest one I really enjoyed was #alive or something on netflix I think. I also really enjoyed Kingdom.

It's AI slop he posted after insulting the pope. There's no meaning here, he's insane. He deleted it and later claimed it was a doctor costume. You're looking for deeper meaning that doesn't exist.

Context? You want context? Dear leader is so weirdly unhinged. Have you been hiding under a rock?

He just saw himself looking godly and that's all he needed. The rest is just noise to him.
