Any words in particular? I can only think of certain ableist and misogynist slurs which are uniquely(?) censored on .ml, which I would imagine could be deeply hurtful to those who have been subjected to abuse and discrimination, and are thrown around too readily by ignorant and uncaring sorts (including my past self.)
It would be nice, of course, to be in a world where such measures weren't necessary to create a welcoming space for all, but we're evidently some way off.
I have a similar keyboard to OP. I have a layer with a grid of f-keys on the left and a standard numberpad layout on the right.
Combos like that are fast, simple, and no contorting or excessive stretching required since every f-key is within one key distance of the home row (I regularly use L-Alt+L-Shift+f-key combos)
it's not my job to educate you
^this
wow pretty problematic
It's the one labelled 'caps-lock'. Probably needs a key combo to actually toggle caps-lock.
Similarly the left 'shift' is also the 'a' key. I would guess tap for 'a', hold for 'shift'.
I have no experience with that channel. What makes you think it is being brigaded? Seems like a very unusual target. Given that it's well-used tracks that appear to be affected, it seems to me that it may just be attracting a greater breadth of viewers - who are generally less familiar with the content and may have different expectations (and would be just as likely to downvote whether visible or not.)
Like I said, many of us use like/dislike ratios to gain insight into quality of content; whether or not that was the intended use of the feature is really irrelevant.
You're massively overstating the incidence of brigading. A tiny fraction of videos have experienced this. The idea that brigading is significantly affecting user recommendations and even causing them to align is hyperbolic nonsense.
How so? Like/dislike ratios are a very quick and effective means of identifying problematic content. Clickbait titles and thumbnails are another issue - they aren't a reasonable indicator of the quality of the content. It's an emerging trend in an oversaturated environment in which even creators of high quality content feel the need to partake.
What an awful mischaracterisation. While the dislike feature may appeal to misanthropes, it also appeals to the much larger pool of people that are intelligent enough/respectful of their own time to understand the value of the feature in helping to avoid poor quality and misleading content.
It really bears out in the results. For those who recall what old ratios looked like, for sufficiently popular videos, they still hold true with this plugin.
A tossup between books 7-10 of the Wheel of Time series. I gave up half way through book 10 and resent the time that I wasted on the series. 20 years later I still recall the desperate hope that the next chapter/book would advance the storyline, only to be greeted with more subplots, stupid things happening because of characters inability/unwillingness to communicate, and overly verbose descriptions of every little thing.
I hear the final books, written by a different author, were much better.
A whistleblower is likely to have access to sensitive data or other forms of leverage not directly linked to whatever they're whistleblowing on. Of course this sort of insurance policy would be useful to them.
