I love when I do something in a dream like it’s the most normal thing in the world, only to wake up and wonder if my dreams have been taken over by a cocaine fueled author’s imagination

Staying positive! In more than one way

After actually reading the article I see they’re well-defined. Thanks for pointing me there ^^

Thanks for the explanation :D I remember some of the things I found out before and now it finally makes more sense. I saw some of the names you mentioned but it never clicked for me that it’s (in-universe) multiple people’s writings that make up the book. It definitely sounds interesting, and I’m fearing and looking forward to how cringe-worthy the characters can get.

Are the user levels an actual defined thing and are there more?

Are you able to give a short summary what it’s about? I’ve had a few people saying it’s fantastic and very special to them but I didn’t really get much of an answer why. And trying to find anything on the internet hasn’t been successful to the point where I get what’s so appealing about it.

I could of course just try reading it for myself but it’s currently in a backlog along with quite a few other books :P

“I AM A STURGEON”

I think the “largely” only refers to the homogeneous part. I hope it does

Well aren’t you a kind soul

I’ve read something along the lines of it being because silver is a “noble metal” (or something like that) and vampires are unholy/foul creatures, somehow making them not be reflected by silver mirrors

Past what exactly? Automatic removal of posts?

Ok so this is just a bot account. Great…

From what I’ve seen in the other post links, it just reads like one answer of an AI companion that has nothing to do with the community. Am I missing something here?

What’s 151 for?

In the article it says that that’s a one-time verification address. Though that leaves the question if/how long it’s stored

Another thing that adds to the fun: the meaning of words to different people.

A more extreme example is a story I vaguely remember where one person thought of “it tastes good” as somewhat negative, while the other actually meant “really good”/quite positive. Or something along those lines

Telling someone that their thought process is flawed/immature is not the same as being triggered. The amount of text contained in your answer is usually associated with “being triggered” though (at least in my experience)

Then again, depending on what exactly one means with “triggered”, you could say that you’ve “been triggered” (like activating some mechanism or something) to write a long response :D

(Not trying to join any side of the original discussion, just sharing what’s on my mind ^^)

I think open signups allow people to create an account without verification like email. I’m not sure about captchas, those might also count as a kind of verification.

A byte in this context always means 8 bit though, it has nothing to do with powers of 10 or 2. The prefix of K (kilo), M (mega), G (giga) or Ki (kibi), Mi (mebi), Gi (gibi) doesn’t change the meaning of “byte”.

endangering the welfare of a child

Seems like it should be more than just endangering…
