Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? 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 for posting 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.

    Straight line on a lin-log chart, getting crypto flashbacks.

      I think technically the singularitarians were way ahead of them on the lin-log charts lines. Have a nice source (from 2005).

        How am I ever going to work again, knowing that page is on the internet. Instead of Timecube, it’s time squared.

          I’m just amazed that they hate lin charts so much that the Countdown to SIN - lin chart is missing.

          E: does seem to work when I directly go to the image, but not on the page. No human! You have a torch look down, there is a cliff! Ignore the siren cries of NFTs at the bottom! (Also look behind you, that woman with her two monkey friends is about to stab you in the back for some reason).

        I can’t get over that the two axis are:

        Time to the next event.

        Time before present.

        And then they have plotted a bunch of things happening with less time between. I can’t even.
