I'm not personally interested in such a feature, but I just want to put forth the idea of an optional, possibly monetize-able, romantic relationship matching feature for SE users. Is this a bad idea? If so, why not?
on a serious note I can see being referred to with infantilization and sexualization when you're trying for answers for your technical questions can be immensely off putting
@Catija yeah, it's a play on the plot of toy story 3 (toy gets thrown out, gets angry, takes out anger on other toys, woody and gang caught in middle - bad explanation, but yeah)
(clearly i've watched the toy story movies too many times.)
@Catija I experienced a bug with their app...after leaving a team, my account was deactivated (as expected). However, I couldn't disable launch at startup because I needed to sign into an account to access the app settings, which I couldn't because my account was deactivated.
I had to create a workspace that I will never use just so that someone could send me an invite to their workspace... That seems like poor design... I can understand not wanting to allow people to spam random invites out ... but ... Discord does it better, I think.
Yeah, in retrospect I could have just gone into Task Scheduler and disabled the startup task, but in the end I solved it by creating a new account on an open team, signing into that, and then from there disabling launch at startup.
@Catija I think they're doing it wrong
The way it's supposed to work is that you're supposed to request an account, and then they have to grant you.
@heather Yeah, same...Woody always has vestiges of being selfish
Yeah, but when you mail a postcard, there is no "don't read my mail" clause.
Could you imagine if you mailed a postcard, in an envelope, and it came opened, with ads on it?

That's how letters from the front used to arrive, right? Inspection in case any classified info was mentioned.

Most social animals live in the open in vicinity to each other, except they are not forced to watch/read ads. I can't imagine humans doing the same ~_~
The internet is international waters. That is why there are pirates.

I get it now, the only cost to privacy is actually being social ... like if you don't need to social, you can device your place to never compromise your privacy.

@bro If I were to set up a service where users could give me their information (which I'd keep safeguarded) and I could send a letter to SE on their behalf with an arbitration opt-out, would that be legal?
