Yes, I’m aware they’re real humans, but blasting someone, who specifically requests not to be blasted, with 10 texts a day, is emotional and mental abuse, and the human doing this is not a person a would ever respect (while I wish them no harm). I see these organizations only a couple notches above those asshole scammers. And it’s because they’re real humans that the berating actually works.
Also, I should clarify what I mean as ‘berating’ in this context: a simple “fuck off” or “who the fuck are you and why the fuck are you texting me?!”. I do not mean that you should go calling them slurs or the like. Don’t insult the person, only be extremely hostile in your response.

Berate them with “foul language”. Depending on the country, they will mark your number as hostile, and it will be removed from their contact list. Since they share lists, this will propagate to other lists, as well.
- Comment on Here's the source code for the unofficial Signal app used by Trump officials 1 week ago:
Yeah, that would make sense. But this is not the right use case for Signal at all. In fact (and I know I’m preaching to the choir), it defeats Signal’s use case in many ways. I don’t even know what they’re trying to accomplish with this.
- Comment on Here's the source code for the unofficial Signal app used by Trump officials 1 week ago:
I archive my signal chats. But, I guess, they need an automatic way to do that. They should ask their precious Grok or whatever tf it’s called.

Why not just use the official signal app, if you’re going to use it at all?

So they’re shorting you 25 minutes on the promised 30 minutes of uninterrupted adverts. Wankers!

I think his “offense” is acceptable, if this one here is acceptable.

Only 5 minutes of uninterrupted adverts? They said 30 minutes. Liars.
- Comment on Microsoft engineer reveals more details about Janet Jackson song that used to mysteriously crash Windows XP PCs 1 week ago:
I’m wondering if, like you postulated, they just didn’t add Linux into their radar for the data collection at that time, so they just had no data. So, while they only had data on windows, all OSs on that hardware configuration would have been affected, since it was a hardware bug and not a software bug.

I had that problem. I changed my ua to Edge on Windows, and the message went away. Everything worked.

Why only windows? I’d the issue was a resonant frequency for 5400 drives of a specific manufacturer, why was only windows affected? Sound is sound.

Fair. Men get pockets, but shite shoes. Women get comfort, but no pockets.
- Comment on I'm a 6'1" man with size 3 feet which means every they measure my feet at a shoe store, the Brannock device gatekeeps my gender 3 weeks ago:
And they’re so much more comfortable, it’s ridiculous. It’s like the shoe industry decided, several decades ago, that men don’t want comfortable shoes.

That may be, but it was also a copy/paste from the title, which made it an awesome response. Smartass response isn’t always a dickish way to answer.

This was the perfect smartass response, and I loved it!

It’s not a phenomenon, ffs. They’re giving the bot their names, and it’s programmed to insert the user’s provided name into the conversation.
- Comment on Airport face scans could replace boarding passes and check-in as soon as 2028 4 weeks ago:
I remember those “raise your hands above your head so we can digitally strip you nude (we won’t touch ourselves, promise*)” scanners when they first came out. They were also going to replace an equally effective scan method that wasn’t privacy eroding. And, guess what? You can still opt out of those a couple decades later.
*Literally happened several times. It was on the news, and it was appalling.
