I think you were referring to BDG's Unraveled video in which he commissions such a poster and you can also buy said poster

Reply to what y'all been playing lately by hollyhoppet
Project Winter, it's in the same vein of Among Us (hidden-roles videogame) but much deeper, longer rounds, much funner IMO.
I got back into Hearthstone for a promotion and it's alright but I refuse to buy Cards

Holy shit yes. I do still use Google occasionally, but I often find that Duck is better than Google.

Reply to I don't know why someone came here to post about other websites that I hadn't heard of, or talk about Tor in ways that sound sketchy by devtesla
I missed the Tor thing and I care a lot about online security. It's a real shame that the increase in interest in decentralized / federated communities is in part attributed to alt-right trolls.
Anyways yeah I'm glad this isn't a ~free speech zone~. Ever try to moderate a community while holding a stringint free-speech absolutist line??? It's a tough and stressful and unrewarding task for an unpaid volunteer! And then you get lawsuits or whatnot.

Reply to How to bring back the old internet by Moonside
Ehhh, white supremacists were some of the earliest adopters of the internet. The problems with Parler, Gab, etc. aren't new. I don't think removing Section 230 will help anyone.
This person is arguing we should get rid of automated moderation is stone-cold stupid. There's more evils to be moderated than just nazis. Why should we subject humans to child pornography when we have automated tools that can identify a broad class of child pornography? And what's to stop the "good-faith human moderators" from being bad? Employing automated moderation is a necessary step of good-faith measures.
This person acknowledges that ISPs, etc. should still be seen as service providers, but the reality is that Twitter, etc. are practically utilities for common people nowadays. The common citizen doesn't have the ability to call a press conference or send mass mailings on a whim (like Trump does).
I think the root of this evil lies in the engagement and marketing algorithms that big sites use. It's like the Paperclip game about an AI that optimizes paperclip production (at the cost of everything else) https://www.decisionproblem.com/paperclips/index2.html
I almost feel like I'm missing some big parts of the argument here

the good thing about new runescape is that it has so many things that make training faster and less click intense. you can click it, like, once a minute
but it's still very bad
