Now I'm doubly disappointed in your teachers.

Oh no! Sarcasm doesn't get me anywhere?? Whatever will I do now? Guess I'll just totally stop all sarcasm since I was only doing it to get places.

Same. I was getting really curious about this Amish group in India

This is my first exposure to this idea and it's quite compelling. Couple that with the perceived tone being argumentative instead of inquisitive or ignorant and that's a recipe for disaster.

The fact the algorithms only care about engagement, positive or negative, means rage bait takes over too so that doesn't help the perception that a question is actually an attack.

Where's your source for this? I've never noticed it so it just not be happening

Would've liked to see what percentage have none.

I'm still buying CDs to rip and having my music library as MP3s on my phone. No internet connection required, I have total control of the files, and a physical backup if needed.

I'd argue they risk losing users who post links to their videos online. It's likely the same group who tend to use ad blockers are also the ones more likely to link a video online, so YouTube would miss out on all the non-adblock users clicking links and watching the videos that way.

Now I'm wondering if you could get celery to soak up a drug solution since it's so watery, then extract the drugs again later

Probably why this scam works so well. It's like how the bad spelling etc in phishing helps to weed out the less susceptible people so they don't waste their time.

If you're already falling for the Musk bullshit, then you're a prime target.
