Crazy Ted posted:Yeah I learned that when I took a random trip to Dallas in about 2005, went to a BBQ place because we'd driven 14 hours and were hungry, I ordered a "sampler platter", and didn't realize until the food arrived that I'd actually ordered three pounds of meat plus the usual sides. I worked BBQ in KC, one of the busiest joints in town. The go-to fatboy plate is the judge's: three meats (we offer six) and two sides. Thing is though you can just add extra portions of whatever. Will never forget the couple I had, weightlifter and his girlfriend, where the guy cackled upon hearing this and the girl just buried her face in her hands. Dude polished off a half rack of ribs, a sausage link, and 4 oz each of brisket, chicken, burnt ends and pulled pork plus fries and beans.

quote:The promotion served as the default subscription offering via pop-ups on our website, and we further pushed the campaign through occasional tweets and a handful of emails to our non-paying mailing list of ~150,000 email addresses. (Our most successful email, one from Tom Ley with the subject line “I see what you’re up to” and preview text of “This whole time you’ve been waiting for a deal,” generated ~1.5x the normal open rate and ~2x the normal clickthrough rate of our subscription appeal emails, but it also resulted in several complaints that the subject line was alarming and creepy. Despite that email’s effectiveness, we have since tried to stay away from creepy subject lines.) There's a reason why email and text fundraising/advertising is so lovely. The annoying as gently caress tone works insofar as more money comes in after that email. I'd be curious to know if there's a diminishing return point after which people are inured to that type of poo poo/actually get turned off by it, and where that point is. e: Also, lol. quote:During the summer of 2022, we emailed a short survey to all ex-subscribers of Defector asking why they canceled their subscription. Nearly all of this feedback was constructive and useful, especially this from our own Ray Ratto: e2: Also, it looks like they've got 23 full time workers, a contributing writer, and their summer intern. They paid out 2m in employee compensation and 200k in benefits, so an average of 88k a head. That's not shabby, and I'm wondering how it compares to their Deadspin days. habeasdorkus fucked around with this message at 04:17 on Oct 28, 2022 |

Stephen A. seems to be at least smart enough to not put the "but" out in his tweets and promotional videos. won't bother to find out if he maintains than in the full product, tho.

if you are a professional Take Artist how hard is it to say Kyrie Irving should be suspended for <x amount> of days for spouting hate speech and they should make him go to whatever bullshit counseling the NBA suggests this isn't tough or unprecedented

People will adjust to the new reality quick ("official" is the new blue checkmark, the blue checkmark is now a badge to let people know you're a rube) but the same people that got scammed before will still get scammed

It took awhile to pound into his head because he's an imbecile but any paid mark They institute will be the mark of the rube, so they'll go with just leaving all the legit blue checks alone and just let people pay to join them. Which will have much the same effect, just over a longer period of time.

as a certified bull poo poo fake tech job haver, Elon IMO is really misunderstanding where the actual trouble will come from w/r/t brand impersonation. sure, users will find it tiring, but a lot of us think it's very funny. but the marketing people at all these companies having to do extra work--and specifically needing to respond very quickly at any hour to fake accounts? brother you're messing up the gravy train. I'm trying to play Crusader Kings here
