  • This was never an issue for me. I almost exclusively use the “home” (I guess that’s “recommend”) part of the youtube app and very rarely get AI videos in any form (voice, images etc.). The few times it’s happened I do I just tap the three buttons and select “don’t recommend channel”. About 80% of videos shown are from channels I watch regularly and the rest are a random mix of interest relevant things with a few completely random ones here and there. Not once has it been any AI heavy anything.







  • I had a few years where every time I was about to fall asleep I had that very immediate feeling of falling that wakes you up but it was 100 times stronger than I’d ever felt before. It went from “oh, I’m nice and comfortable and just drifting off” to “HOLY FUCK I JUST ALMOST FUCKING DIED” in less than a second, it was absolutely horrifying and took a deep mental toll during and for a good while after it stopped. I still think about it in the context of this post, just the idea of “what if all those times were some sort of universe switching?” (To be clear, not in a serious way, it’s just a fun philosophical thing).


  • TY!! I didn’t even know the devs were from my country and live in my city until we met. We met at an underground club, me and my best friend (RIP) were talking about the game and this random dude came up to us, extremely drunk, and said he made the game and we didn’t belive him at all right then. It was only a few weeks later when we came across each other at a bar early on in the night when he showed us that he wasn’t bullshiting, haha. This was was all only a few weeks after the first game came out. He’s a great dude!




  • This is a weird and fun coincidence!
    It was my birthday yesterday and one of the two devs of hotline miami and his brother took me out to the bars, many hours and beers in we talked about how fucked we’d be if we got transported to that universe. And now this thread pops up with your comment and remember that discussion which I had forgotten in the mist of the night till now.



  • The older I get the better I am at finding groups of people and fanbases where this doesn’t apply. I’m in a spot with music, cooking, visual arts, science and more both IRL and online that are just nice. And it’s not about lack of different opinions and being in a bubble, I just focus on and stay with people and groups who are nice about it.
