Feel like you want to sneer about something but you don’t quite have a snappy post in you? Go forth and be mid!

Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.

If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post, there’s no quota here and the bar really isn’t that high

The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

    extremely high context ancient-lore buttcoin lol:

    anyone remember Ryan X. Charles, the man who spent nine months working at Reddit to reimplement bitcoind in javascript, 'cos it took that long for them to notice they were paying him and to stop doing that?

    he became an extremely ardent Bitcoin-SV (Satoshi’s Vision) advocate who thought Prof Dr Dr Wright was a genius

    anyway, he’s decided it’s time to flip to the non-losing side

      You sent me down the rabbit hole.

      …as for what’s right for you, I dunno. The one major downside of fullnode is that there is only one developer working on it, though I think that once I move the project to reddit’s github and announce that “reddit is making a wallet” we will have many more eyes and developers on the project.

      Just fucken lol.
