    That’s like wanting to try vaping to help you stop smoking but never doing it because you can’t find nicotine vapes that taste that specific burning shit flavor you’re used to.

    They can keep that shit on windows. The anti cheat will probably evolve to include AI bullshit like nanny assistants to make sure you’re using your computer like a human is supposed to and live facial identify verification to make sure you’re watching the anti cheat ads they’ll start playing when you die.

    It was basically the very first shot at a curated message board in the newspaper. Writers unaffiliated with the newspaper were invited to share their opinions on topics “opposite the editorial page”. Other papers adopted it after the fact.

    So yeah, it’s an invite-only comments section. You only ever hear about the fucking horrible ones because you probably don’t read the NYT cover to cover every edition.

    There’s examples of the opposite as well:

    I’m just pointing out that it’s a tool explicitly used to basically say “This is what people not affiliated with our newspaper are saying”.

    My point is that the NYT should absolutely be saying this themselves, not just inviting others to say it in an opinion article.

    (headline change notwithstanding, that was probably lawyers IMHO)
