    So if one tech company has stolen and addicted all of your real friends, there is another tech company ready to step in and take advantage of your feelings on loneliness for profit? Stanford MBAs sinking to new lows for human scum to profit from human suffering.

      I have dug pretty deep looking for humanity in a lot of people.

      Every time I found out they had a buainess degree, I came up empty. Sometimes after years. Also, they’re always the dumbest bastards. There’s smart people who learned in universities, there’s smart people who learned on the streets, and not one of them has a business degree.

        not really directly related but need to tell the story. In college there was an engineer major. Was not doing well with his grades barely holding on. Could never go out as he desperately tried to get his grades up every weekend. Changed his major to marketing and was out getting wasted every weekend and his grades went to all aces. I sometimes think us stem folks should have all changed majors and wrecked their curves.

          I’d say we need engineers, but those dumbfucks are the ones who make all the decisions, so maybe it would be beat to take a break from having engineers. No offense.

            its not engineers. its business folks utlizing talent. bezos and musk are not geniuses who created these things they are venture capitalists who funded them.

    Do people seriously buy this?

    Schiffmann has also posted a series of user testimonial videos to his personal X account

    Like i can only assume these are fake, has anyone ever seen this actually used?

      Yes and the person using it had an MBA, were already deep in computer-fucker psychosis, and I think may have been getting paid.

      Friend is leaning hard into “all press is good press” and it shows. I’ve heard an interview with at least one tech reviewer who tried this thing out and, unsurprisingly, it was absolute garbage.

      I’ve never heard of this used anywhere else, but take that with a grain of salt
