This is my public profile? Write something about myself?!

"This was actually footage from a GTA V mod", ahh, that's a reassuring lie I can just about force myself to believe in!

But I so badly want to believe people are not as stupid as they seem! Please! They seem. so. stupid.

That response does not provide me with the anodyne reassurance I so desperately need after that!

Bold choice- how do you know they aren't the kind of person who would enjoy that?

I like that some Germans will mess with the slightly asinine / demeaning question... but not to the point of "randomly" pointing at the UK, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Iceland or Finland lol

I'm as familiar with reframing as you apparently are with the Daily Mail. That you used the technique to give my comment an unwarranted censorial motivation was unkind. That said I could have expressed myself more clearly in my first reply- I was interested why someone who has formal education in journalism would appear to promote them, I should have asked that directly

I've no idea what being on imgur longer than me as to do with... anything here really; but I am content to remain nonplussed

Joking about what? About not wanting words (incorrectly) put in my mouth? No joke. About my thoughts on echo chambers being pretty easy to find, especially for someone with a degree in journalism? No joke. About suggesting putting what you link in some sort of context? Your choice at risk of being misunderstood, but also: no joke.

For the record I'm mostly confused by this interaction but I haven't downvoted your post or replies; I think other folks were a bit harsh but that's imgur I guess?

Given your degree in journalism, I would also have thought that you would recognize that it is not right to put words in others' mouths

A careful perusal of my comment history would have informed you of my views on echo chambers and seeing things from others' perspectives

If your intent was indeed to inform people of "what other people are seeing", you could have given some (or indeed any!) contextualization to what you were linking to, or indeed said that, instead of "hoo boy"

Most people don't know, they assume the DM is a legitimate journalistic endeavor. Given your educational background, I'm astonished you choose to give them mindshare

The way borg works simplified is if you have five files with content along the lines of "A B C D E", it splits that into 5 chunks (1: ABCDE). If that gets changed so the files are now "A B C D Z" (2: ABCDZ), the total storage would be 6 chunks: ABCDEZ

From those chunks you can restore either 1 or 2, but you're not storing full copies of each of those 5 files, so there's a huge space savings :)
