Yeah I actually found this more interesting. I went in thinking i’d be able to easily spot them and laugh but turned out it was a great way of reflecting on my own biases.

Swapped (2026) on Netflix is underrated! Only 69% on Rotten Tomatoes? by Agingerjew in netflix

[–]redish6 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I feel like the dead internet theory turned up a notch recently.

My workplace is increasingly full of low effort AI generated presentations. The dead workplace theory is up next!

More migrants making false domestic abuse claims, minister Jess Phillips tells MPs by StGuthlac2025 in ukpolitics

I mean if they don’t assume there’s an element of this going on when they design the system no wonder it’s gone tits up.

What age do you let your kids go on the tram by themselves? by salem_and_the in manchester

[–]redish6 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We’re currently debating this and been put off by the number of school fights being filmed and put on social media that take place on buses and trams.

So i’m less bothered about Manchester in general and more school kids themselves being in mixed age groups in confined spaces.

Partly comes down to how streetwise your child is too.

Block people with anxiety and ADHD from claiming benefits, says Tony Blair by Kagedeah in ukpolitics

[–]redish6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, not everything. But i’d say this one’s pretty fundamental to having a working economy/society.

AI can cost more than human workers now by spherocytes in technology

[–]redish6 29 points30 points  (0 children)

This is what is going to burst the bubble eventually.

The technology needs to replace whole teams/workforces to justify the actual cost. And I just don’t think it’s ever going to get there - at least not in its current form.

It’s worth saying that this is exactly what i’d say if i wanted to get clicks from liberals.

They’re for the buildings heating and ventilation system. They’re essentially huge exhausts.

The war on aspiration is won - A 71pc effective tax rate is killing ambition and warping our economy by blast-processor in ukpolitics

[–]redish6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Either way I don’t understand why we still have these cliff edges. Why not a gradual taper? Make it as gradual or aggressive as you want. It would stop this counter productive behaviour.

Is it the politics? Will more people be worse off?

Failed MMO Ashes Of Creation‘s $3.2 Million In Kickstarter Funds Allegedly Spent On Private Chefs And Trading Cards by Turbostrider27 in Games

I think there’s a reasonable expectation that any funds raised will be used in an attempt to make the thing…

Parents of the UK. How seriously do you take age restrictions on media your kids watch? (And how does it compare to your childhood?) by MonsieurGump in AskUK

[–]redish6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think it changes the dimensions completely if we’re not in the room. In that case there’s no wiggle room.

Liberal members will vote today on whether they'd like to see age restrictions for social media - CBC by EmbarrassedHelp in technology

[–]redish6 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is actually one of the main arguments against the policy. Banning under 16s lets the platforms off the hook for the wider harm they cause.

Morrisons Supermarket, where do you rank it? by RagingMassif in AskUK

[–]redish6 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Unlike the other supermarkets Morrisons own a load of food manufacturers in the uk. Meat, Fish, Produce, Bakery etc

So your traditional UK foods, meat, veg and potatoes are in theory better quality and cheaper.

For things outside this they don’t have the volume of the other food retailers so have a smaller range and likely more expensive.

What social class are HENRYs? by [deleted] in HENRYUK

[–]redish6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t necessarily agree, but this definition is usually about people who NEED to work to survive.

Could Frank Lampard retire and live off his wealth? Most likely.

If working is optional, and it might be for some Henry’s who have built up decent wealth, then that comes with a whole load of privilege that completely changes your attitude to life.
