TheOneAndOnlyT posted:I feel like "a high rate limit to counter spambots, but that might get some false positives on really active humans" is a very different thing from "arbitrary cutoffs imposed on all users because we didn't pay our cloud bill." It sounds like rate limiting the posts? And not views

MunchE posted:Burr you would 100% assume goes the same lovely chuddy trajectory into grumpy old man humor but he's actually touched on some hot button topics in a really funny and interesting way without bitching about people getting offended. Because people are laughing, because he's actually *funny*.

This thread made me curious so I poked around a bit and quickly found Bill Burr's bit about trans women in mma where he talks about beating an opponent with her (of course he uses "he" the whole time but) cut off penis. Real shocker that this dude goes on Rogan.

Lmao Chapelle NIMBYed it up at his local municipal small town council meeting because they were going to build a new housing complex and he had to cry about it, and that’s just one random thing, and pales in comparison with his bigotry, guy is a loving loser

Archonex posted:He had good writers at the time. And it should be noted that those skits were stories other more famous people were telling the crew. It's not hard to be funny if someone else is giving you the material and you have a writing staff to make it workable. he is a good writer hes a chud pos but he can write a loving joke. his oj bit and the working backwards from the punchline bit in his first netflix special which is where he started being chuddy prove this. he wrote those on his own. his version of paul mooney didnt write for any of those.

i love how ~Small Businesses~ are always held up as this sacred archetype of people who should basically be allowed to do whatever the gently caress they want because they are Mom and Pop, the divine inhabitants of Norman Rockell paintings, glowing with Wholesome Goodness. but they really mean huge rear end corporations and sketchy techbro startups anyway

Goons are just doing the dumb thing were they pretend a person can’t be good (or couldn’t be good at some point) at their job and also a terrible person. Some kind of weird just world fantasy thing I guess

You can qualify for special treatment as a "small business" if you're a logging company with 350 employees, a clothing store with $45m in sales, or are employing 1,400 people to build an oil pipeline. https://www.sba.gov/sites/sbagov/files/2023-06/Table%20of%20Size%20Standards_Effective%20March%2017%2C%202023%20%282%29.pdf

Meta actually employs large numbers of competent software engineers though, so they probably are able to actually implement intelligent checks for suspicious high-rate activity instead of doing something completely stupid like blanket limiting all users to 600 post loads per day.

LMAO at anyone thinking people are mad because Chapelle brought Failon on stage for seven minutes It’s more about gleeful ridicule of the fact that, as someone upthread pointed out, it was very much “Put your hands together, for the richest man in the WOOORLLLD!” energy Followed by the idiotic Musk, probably the least funniest person in the world, walking out and not even being able to say the one line he was given, and looked awkward, sounding awkward, and embarrassing everyone in the building I mean you can say Dave is maligned and hated all you want, but that was one of the most cringeworthy episode by a major celebrity on a big stage in recent memory. And he chose this. He chose to bring that lumbering, unfunny automaton out there onstage. That will never not be funny, and I hope you Musksuckers and Chapelle-fellators have trauma over the reaction to it for the rest of your lives. Because the rest of us will never stop laughing about it 🤣🤣🤣

pretty sure a lot of people were mad at chapelle for being a transphobic piece of poo poo and then doubling down on it, and then i guess pseudo-apologizing for it, well before anything to do with elon

Small business owners will blame literally everyone else on Earth before themselves if they're failing. They also think it's their God-given right to be a business owner and they're too good to have a regular job. It's below them to rejoin the working class. The mere thought sends them into maniacal rage.

That’s not what they’re talking about, though. It’s not people saying “I don’t find it funny now,” it’s people saying “it was never funny.” That’s a little silly imo.
