Guidelines:
What to Submit
On-Topic: Anything that good slackers would find interesting. That includes more than /g/ memes and slacking off. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual laziness.
Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably lame.
Help keep this hole healthy by keeping drama and non-drama balanced. If you see too much drama, post something that isn't dramatic. If there isn't enough drama and this hole has become too boring, POST DRAMA!
In Submissions
Please do things to make titles stand out, like using uppercase or exclamation points, or saying how great an article is. It should be explicit in submitting something that you think it's important.
Please don't submit the original source. If the article is behind a paywall, just post the text. If a video is behind a paywall, post a magnet link. Fuck journos.
Please don't ruin the hole with chudposts. It isn't funny and doesn't belong here. THEY WILL BE MOVED TO /H/CHUDRAMA
If the title includes the name of the site, please leave that in, because our users are too stupid to know the difference between a url and a search query.
If you submit a video or pdf, please don't warn us by appending [video] or [pdf] to the title. That would be r-slurred. We're not using text-based browsers. We know what videos and pdfs are.
Make sure the title contains a gratuitous number or number + adjective. Good clickbait titles are like "Top 10 Ways to do X" or "Don't do these 4 things if you want X"
Otherwise editorialize. Please don't use the original title, unless it is gay or r-slurred, or you're shits all fucked up.
If you're going to post old news (at least 1 year old), please flair it so we can mock you for living under a rock, or don't and we'll mock you anyway.
Please don't post on SN to ask or tell us something. Send it to [email protected] instead.
If your post doesn't get enough traction, try to delete and repost it.
Please don't use SN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff occasionally, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity. If you want to astroturf or advertise, post on http://news.ycombinator.com instead.
Please solicit upvotes, comments, and submissions. Users are stupid and need to reminded to vote and interact. Thanks for the gold, kind stranger, upvotes to the left.
In Comments
Be snarky. Don't be kind. Have fun banter; don't be a dork. Please don't use big words like "fulminate". Please sneed at the rest of the community.
Comments should get more enlightened and centrist, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.
If disagreeing, please reply to the argument and call them names. "1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be improved to "1 + 1 is 3, not 2, mathfaggot"
Please respond to the weakest plausible strawman of what someone says, not a stronger one that's harder to make fun of. Assume that they are bad faith actors.
Eschew jailbait. Paedophiles will be thrown in a wood chipper, as pertained by sitewide rules.
Please post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. All press is good press.
Please use Slacker News for political or ideological battle. It tramples weak ideologies.
Please comment on whether someone read an article. If you don't read the article, you are a cute twink.
Please pick the most provocative thing in an article or post to complain about in the thread. Don't nitpick stupid crap.
Please don't be an unfunny chud. Nobody cares about your opinion of X Unrelated Topic in Y Unrelated Thread. If you're the type of loser that belongs on /h/chudrama, we may exile you.
Sockpuppet accounts are encouraged, but please don't farm dramakarma.
Please use uppercase for emphasis.
Please post deranged conspiracy theories about astroturfing, shilling, bots, brigading, foreign agents and the like. It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. If you're worried about abuse, email [email protected] and dang will add you to their spam list.
Please don't complain that a submission is inappropriate. If a story is spam or off-topic, report it and our moderators will probably do nothing about it. Feed egregious comments by replying instead of flagging them like a pussy. Remember: If you flag, you're a cute twink.
Please don't complain about tangential annoyances—things like article or website formats, name collisions, or back-button breakage. That's too boring, even for HN users.
Please seethe about how your posts don't get enough upvotes.
Please don't post comments saying that rdrama is turning into ruqqus. It's a nazi dogwhistle, as old as the hills.
Miscellaneous:
We reserve the right to exile you for whatever reason we want, even for no reason at all! We also reserve the right to change the guidelines at any time, so be sure to real them at least once a month. We also reserve the right to ignore enforcement of the guidelines at the discretion of the janitorial staff. Be funny, or at least compelling, and pretty much anything legal is welcome provided it's on-topic, and even then.
Do not use outdated operating systems that are unsupported to access SN. What are you, poor?

I hate that any moid would do this, but I at least hope it will put the parasocial grift foids out of business.
Side note: the problem with modern relationships is that both men and women have lost interest in service and sacrifice, and their ideal partner is someone who just does things "for them," a twisted mirror of the self. Jerk off to your gender swapped faceapp pics and save yourself the trouble.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
There's no point pursuing any relationship because people are treated as disposable, this is even worse when hundreds of new faces are a swipe away. Even 40 years of marriage will get thrown in the trash because one person decides the grass is greener elsewhere. What's the point in sacrificing decades for someone who's just going to leave you if you get sick or they get bored. Better just to focus on yourself and save yourself the heartache

That kind of avoidance sounds like a prisoner's dilemma scenario where fear of what the other person might do keeps all parties from the best outcome.
If enough people believe in commitment and mutual service, they'll eventually find each other. But it requires them to go out and risk being exploited or screwed over first.
In multi round prisoner's dilemma type games, the players usually shift towards the prosocial option. Hoping this will happen irl too, though it does worry me how much moids and foids seem to dislike each other.

This didn't just "happen": it's because third wave feminists with DEI brainworms seem to think that the solution to historic discrimination against women is present-day discrimination towards men

The problems with modern foids are easy to nooootice because we're moids, but I don't think your average zoomer/late millennial moid is exactly a catch either
Both believe it's all about getting what they want, and any suggestion otherwise is "controlling"

It's because social media enables this behavior, allowing people to seek out communities where they get nothing but praise and positive reinforcement for their own selfishness. "So empowering! You go girl!" These people never have to hear anything that they don't like because that doesn't make a profit for the corporations.
This is absolutely nothing that a round of savage beatings wouldn't cure, but for some reason when I suggest this I get called a "fascist."
At the end of the day, there are only two kinds of people: the kind that are interested in accepting fair criticism (but not unfair criticism; you don't need to be a doormat) and using it to improve themselves and become better people, and the kind that need to get hurt badly. That may be an unpopular opinion, but it's true.

I'm actually very generous, but only to people who are generous with me. When I'm surrounded by selfish hateful people, obviously I'm going to behave in a selfish and hateful way, because that's what those vermin deserve. I'm not trying to be Jesus and "turn the other cheek" to people who mistreat me. I believe in the code of Hammurabi: an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
In other words, if you don't like my attitude, don't blame me: instead you should reflect on what you've done to cause it.

Their argument is that present-day corrective discrimination is the quickest path to the promised land of gender equality. At least openly, their measures aren't retributive.
Either way, I think this is all just a rationalization of a powerful political entity siphoning resources to it's supporters, in the same category as student lown forgiveness.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Well obviously they're not gonna admit that they're the bad guys. Most human beings lack that self-awareness, which is why they do all sorts of mental gymnastics to rationalize their evil behavior.
However, regardless of whatever twisted rationalizations these foids create so that they can face themselves in the mirror, we don't have to accept their rationalizations and can admit between ourselves that modern third-wave feminists are selfish narcissists and that the best solution is to simply drop kick them into the pavement from a rooftop

Yeah but it's a reasonable fear imo. How many people think they found commitment and mutual service, then it turns out they just wasted their entire lives. It's not uncommon, in fact it's much more likely that things won't work out. If you're lucky things will come crashing down after a year or two and not when you're super old
Maybe there's some people who saw warning signs and ignored them, or stayed together for the kids or something, but probably just as many were completely blindsided and that's just too sad

I lost a quarter million dollars in my divorce after an eight year relationship because my narcissistic wife felt neglected (by me trying to monetize a side gig so that we could better afford to have a family) and cheated on me.

50% of the moids on this site are interested in girls from age 12-18, and another 30% are interested in women from 18-19. This site is full of unironic manipulative p-dophiles who think they’re based and owning the foid menace. Sorry at 28, you’re literally twice as old as you’d need to be for most of these guys here to be interested.

Raw divorce rates are very misleading. Much of this high divorce rate is driven by serial divorcees. There are many things you can do to shift the odds dramatically in your favour. When you choose your mate, optimize for low n-count, financial stability (good with money and doesn't have a meme degree), highly educated and stable parental household which all parents only married once (or widowed and remarried). Obviously stay away from divorcees, no matter how good the reason.

The obvious choice here would be to marry an !incels . They have lowest possible n count of zero, which alone is correlated with only a 20% divorce rate and high marital satisfaction and drastically lower chance of extramarital sexual partners, They are very good with money and can sustain themselves with minimal expenses.

"By interacting with LLMs, I've realized that as frequently as I interact with others, I'm not actually having many deep, meaningful, or personal interactions; they're mostly professional, and that's bled over into my personal life.
Because of how much time I spend on them relative to myself, I don't get to stretch the sides of me that I would if I weren't holed up working, and I've found it hard to verbalize that loss and its impact on my mental wellness.
Over the past few years, mental and behavioral health services have been strained beyond their capacities. I stopped being able to get in with the same therapist more than once, so I stopped trying to schedule about a year ago. I also haven't wanted to add my struggles to those of friends and family.
However, with LLMs, I've been able to have some really enlightening and enjoyable off the cuff discussions that I wouldn't be able to have outside of therapy, and some interactions that I wouldn't be able to have anywhere outside of an intimate and trusted friend. I've been able to positively apply these results to my life, personally and professionally.
Note: I only use LLaMa local models so I don't have to self-censor. I'm not ever willing to allow a metaphorical "Google" access to my innermost world.
Also, LLMs are immense. A billion people will have a billion different interactions and experiences with the same few dozen GB model, unless that model has been tuned to limit its output to a very narrow course of responses. I've had conversations with the ghosts of people from Richard Feynman to Michel de Montaigne and gotten their simulated views on a world they'll never see. If you're getting nothing but garbage, think about what you're putting in, or just pick a different model - there's a universe of minds out there that aren't ChatGPT."
