I don’t know how spam bots work. Are they site specific? Did someone create a Lemmy spam bot? Or do the bots attempt to create profiles all over the Internet?

cm0002 ,

Yea someone had to make a Lemmy spam bot, they tend to just go wherever people go, like pigeons lmao

AnarchistArtificer ,

I always experience a weird sense of sonder^[1] when I see spam bots, because even if it’s a huge, highly automated network of bots, there’s at least one human involved if you could trace the bots back to their source.

I wonder what kind of person they are, and how the hell they make a profit from the spam. They surely must have a non-zero return rate, but how well does it work? Are they making bank from the task, or barely scraping by? Are they surviving on the scam income, or is it just a bit extra on top of a regular job? Do they enjoy the work, or are they as much of a wage-slave as I am, just in a different way. Were they themselves a victim of some scam, perhaps? I’ll never know, hence the sonder.

[1]: Sonder, noun, neologism. “The feeling one has on realizing that every other individual one sees has a life as full and real as one’s own, in which they are the central character and others, including oneself, have secondary or insignificant roles” (dictionary.com)

What are they conceding exactly?

JohnDClay ,

I thought it was taking about concession stand concessions, and was really confused as to how they were vital to the bourgeois patching capitalism. Now I’m more confused.

BachenBenno ,

Things that benefit the working class: Labor protection, minium wages, free education, etc. Without these things greater profits would be made. And every capitalist country slowly removes these benefits until major uprisings.

Chainweasel ,

And every capitalist country slowly removes these benefits until major uprisings.

We figured out a long time ago that there’s only two things people need in order to keep them happy:
Bread and Circuses.
As long as people have food on their table and a source of entertainment you can take everything else away and they’ll be content enough to not revolt.
But it’s important to not take everything else away at once either, that’s why they chisel away at them until only those two are left.

That’s not entirely true.

Capitalism itself is unsustainable, so as time goes on, the temp rises towards the boiling point. Bread and circuses delay this boiling point, but do not stop it. As long as the temperature continues to rise, so to speak, so too will the boiling point be approached.

I like wearing a mask, I don’t get told to smile anymore

Wait no

One guy did tell me to smile more when I had a mask on. I stared at him. Baffled. He seemed to realize he was being stupid and just fucking booked it.

Smiling doesn’t just involve shaping your lips into an upwards arch. Usually your eyes are involved as well. This can be seen even when you’re wearing a mask over your mouth.

@RebekahWSD@lemmy.world avatar

I wasn’t looking directly at him and had fogged eyeglasses (major drawback of masks, how dare they and glasses do that) so it was overall weird!

Duke_Nukem_1990 ,

Why did you explain this?

bjoern_tantau ,
@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

Because the comment implied that smiles couldn’t be seen with a mask on.

Duke_Nukem_1990 ,

Maybe not. Maybe it implied how fucking obnoxious it is to comment on other people’s bodies without being asked.

@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

True, didn’t think of that.

I do this when eating food I don’t like and I used to be a very fussy eater. I was at my friends house and she cooked food and I was forcing it down to be polite and she asked if I liked the food. I said yeah its really good and she burst out laughing because apparently my face looked like I was eating a war head. She said I can tell when you don’t like something because you always scrunch your face. Apparently I used to do it in conversations as well.

Two of my distant in-laws both got covid last week and are… gutting through it. Neither have had boosters, neither wear masks even though they both have wide ranges of significant health issues.

Oh man, I love 1991s MSDos platformer Cheeze Caves. Apobee went on to make Nuke Dukem, Kommander Clean, and Wolfenstain 3D.
