I like this reply. It's nuanced. This guy didn't post that picture to be helpful. He did it to troll, and trolling is cruelty, and defending cruelty is immoral.

Ture but it starts off with basically argument from ignorance (or lack of imagination):

> there's basically no reason to create this photo other than to mislead the authorities

There are many other "for fun" possibilities: impress his friends, impress internet followers, impress a girl, play around with AI...

They've charged him with "disrupting government work by deception." It will be interesting to see whether that South Korean law requires proof of intent or just proof of the consequences. If he directed to authorities, he's in trouble, but if he posted it anywhere else it likely qualifies as free speech.


The world can't be that advanced when you have people shoving their religious imaginary friends in every sentence and then feigning victimhood for having it called out.

That's some really gross toxic-positivity begging.

You can do better

THEN: "You can't violate our copyright because it's ours and belongs to us."

NOW: "We can violate your copyright because we want to."

YOU: "Where's mine, and how do I make more people click on these ads?"

The posts are AI slop but not incorrect. I didn't have to look anything up to know there was some kind of bribery or insider corruption going on here.


Thank you for considering violence against corporate totalitarianism. Please choose one of the following:

Was it really too hard to say "I am the" or add "here" at the end? Instead we get this lazy "words hard less wrds good" manner of speaking.


Why use many word when few word do trick.


I meant to have a "here" at the end, just typed while excited. Typically known for using too many words.


lol

Remember when Jobs of Apple died?

Now think about what is going to happen when Musk dies. Compare and contrast.


I got scammed on Swappa about six months ago. I was buying a used Google Pixel tablet in "mint" condition. It was really used and terribly scratched up.

Swappa staff were unhelpful and only after I opened a dispute with Paypal did I get my money back.

I don't blame Swappa for a random dodgy seller, but this was an "Enterprise" seller, whom is still selling on Swappa today!

See this reddit review, which isn't mine, but is almost exactly what I dealt with.

Reading OP's post, I can't help but wonder if they bought a Verizon Pixel. This is a very very well-known gotcha. Verizon locks their bootloaders and you can't bootloader-unlock Verizon Pixels, even after they are carrier-unlocked.
