this looks like a proposal a redditor female would make

>>8387337
Didn't newmoot say bandwidth was the problem? How will displacing people and consolidating boards reduce bandwidth

>>8387342
it won't, which is why this was clearly made by a fucking retard

All hiroshimoot needs to do is delete all the retarded porn boards. They are all a waste of bandwidth, no novel content comes from /gif/ /s/ etc.

There's no point in merging all those unrelated boards together because it won't reduce bandwidth at all. The real problem are the porn, gif, and wallpaper boards that post tons of images despite having relatively few users. All the porn and picture boards need to go, but everything else should remain as is.

>>8387337
>keeping Pony board
I'll take bullshit for 500.

>>8387337
Source for this? Is this official?

Anyways. FUUUUUCK NOOOOOOO

I do not want /lit/ pseudo intellectuals "oh look at me, I read for-pleasure novels like Harry Potter therefore I am smart because reading implies smart, regardless of the content, right?" fags and /his/ 'you can't know muffins' tier philosotards POLLUTING MY BOARD.

>>8387337
that's retarded

just wait until after elections and delete /pol/. It's a black hole that endlessly attracts memeshitting newfags on this site that think they're a "legion" and prevents any actual discussion on politics from ever taking place.

Yeah this would be an epic shitstorm.
Merging boards that don't get along like /o/ and /n/...and forgets the reasoning behind the creation of a few boards.

This is a troll image, I suggest you just ignore it.

>>8387363
How new are you?

/new/ and /pol/ not existing has never been good for any board.

>>8387357
>/lit/
>Harry Potter
wew

>>8387391
That is just a silly example. The problem with /lit/ is that the faggots think they are smart for reading.

This would be fine if they read technical books that actually teach something but they JUST READ NOVELS.

They read for pleasure, not for learning. Reading a non-technical book if anything makes you dumber.

>>8387385
The mods just have to be on high alert and actually stick with their decision this time around instead of give in t them. I think they will migrate to another chan or stormfront EVENTUALLY. I hope. But creating long-term predictive models on /pol/ack behaviour is very challenging, so you might have a point.

Thing is, the idea of the containment board failed miserably in the case of /pol/. I say, cut the head off and don't look back this time.

>>8387398
>tfw to smart for fiction

>>8387398
That's some first class ignorance right there.

>>8387409
Don't try to lump me in with the >to smart for X
faggots.

I simply don't believe that reading for pleasure makes you more intelligent.

>>8387413
Have you ever met readers in real life? And by readers I mean people who IDENTIFY by the fact that they read. You know them because they say they go to libraries (the fucking nerds), they say they go to coffee stores to read and they always talk about a book and ALWAYS, ALWAYS, bring a CLOSED book with them everywhere.

Have you met their fucking cancer? I have. Hear me out. There was this fat disgusting girl I knew who would naturally always have some fucking basic ass book with her and did random shitty star wars puns that made no sense. She was CRYING to let us know that she reads.

Hey, do you know that I read? Yes, I read! I READ! I READ THIS LAST WEEK AND I AM READING THIS TODAY PAY ME ATTENTION GOD DAMN I AM FAT AND LONELY AND NO ONE WILL EVER FUCK ME.

Which is surprising because reading is a basic human function. 90% of humans can read in at least one language for fucks sake. These faggots think they are special because they circle jerk around reading lists for tumblr.

When that bitch reads a topology textbook maybe I will pay her attention. Until then, I could not care less about her attention whorin ways.

This is why I don't go to libraries. This is why I am FUCKING GLAD that the mathematics department has a separate library with ONLY real books (math books) so I don't have to even look at literature autistic nerds. Fuck them all to death.

>>8387337

it's ok to merge /sci/, /lit/ and History &Humanities. In fact it's bad but it's ok if this heps 4chan.

/biz/ is not academia.

I only go in /sci/ /x/ /tv/ /v/.

>>8387398

fucking sperg

Having some subjectivity in life is valuable too

>>8387433
>/x/
why? I wanna believe that this board can concern itself with something more believable than reptilians and angels, but every time I actually fall for my instinct I crash land in reality where the only non-shit /x/ threads are the phobia threads and spooky stories.

>>8387434
>Having some subjectivity in life is valuable too

I watch anime and read manga which is good for me because this community does not circle jerk around 'Oh look at me I read!!! I READ! PAY ME ATTENTION. SOMEONE PLEASE!'.

It is actually pretty silent. I know other people who enjoy this irl and we almost never talk about it. It is a completely solitary activity. You know, the kind that actually enriches the mind.

The moment you do something for attention you already left intellectual integrity 100 miles behind.

That said, I am currently reading a game theory book that is more on the soft side. I guess I am a reader now. Will you give me attention?

>>8387337


/sci/ must stay alone. I fucking love this board.

>>8387337
I can't find any sources for this, and OP didn't provide any. Why are people so gullible.

>>8387429
>topology textbook
On that note, can you recommend one?

>>8387337
>merge /jp/ and /c/, the best boards, with /a/
NO

>>8387429

this fucking aspie

Politics, which is extremely elemental to make anything work -- like convincing the average citizen to fund your theoretical autism with tax money ( :6) ) -- relies heavily on subjectivity and general humanities

try to look outside your shell for once

>hey anon do you read
>y-yes
>what authors do you like
>spivak, apostol, hardy
>oh wow anon i've never heard of any of them! what type of books do they write?

>>8387453
Just google Melissa Click to get a good feel of the autism and cancer readers come with.

Tell me if being more like her would make more succesful?

Plus, I do not have autism therefore I do not need anyone or anything to teach me how to talk. I actually have to do a bunch of speeches and presentations. I have one coming up this week and I've never taken public speaking classes. You know, because I am not autistic.

Like reading, speaking is a basic human function.

Eh, at least now when we cross shit post into other boards to point out how retarded the other autists are (mainly /int/ and /biz/) they can't tell us >>>/sci/

>>8387455
>>hey anon do you read

If I was asked this I would say no because I am not autistic and i know what people mean when they say 'do you read?'.

Even though I read math books and manga, I know they are just asking me if I reblog Harry Potter gifs on tumblr.

>>8387455

>answering yes

it must be tough having autism

>>8387457

>Claims he isn't autistic
>Continues to misinterpret the use of "autism" in a 4chan context

right

>>8387455
>>8387478
>spivak, apostol, hardy
>hardy
>Hardy's Google picture appears in post.
Well, it looks like >>>/lit/ came here a little early.

>>8387438


/sci/ /x/ /tv/ /v/ are the only boards that feed my imagination and my need to dream.

These are also the only boards of subjects (life outside Earth for example, space, history, etc.) that I really like. On a serious point of view (/sci/), fiction (/tv/ and /v/) and hypothetical/crazier (/x/).

If you are not completely retarded or naive, /x/ is ok.

>>8387478
You claim that I would be helped by the humanities in convincing someone to fund my theoretical autism.

Well, I work in general software. Business software. I work mostly alone and while my company finds me clients, I have to directly speak to them. Show them what I got and convince them to drop thousands of dollars on what I am doing.

I've done. I am doing it and just this week I have to do it again. I am good at it.

Your assumption that people need the humanities for basic human interaction is flawed. You are assuming that because you are an autist incapable of understanding people, everyone else must also be an autist who NEEDS the humanities.

Nobody needs the humanities. Autists love the humanities because they have no real human friends.

>>8387488
/sci/ /tv/ and /v/ are fine, I use them too, but I guess we have vastly different expectations of what /x/ should be.

>>8387337
>/aca/

I will NOT share space with disgusting /lit/ and /his/ filth. If this happens, I am moving back to [math]\infty[/math] chan.

>>8387490

Yeah mate

Now explain me why your boss makes orders of magnitude more than just because he can look people in the day and do a firm handshake?

>>8387357
>you are the cancer
>you are the one who pollutes

>>8387508
>Now explain me why your boss makes orders of magnitude more

Because he has been in this business for 3 decades while I just got in this year?

>>8387398
This is pure bs.
You're the one who seems to be the pseudo-íntellectual here.
/lit/ isn't just about fiction, besides that claiming "muh science and everything which isnt academic science is bs" makes you look fucking autistic and degenerated, so stop being stuck in your 16-yo edgy worldview and start consider yourself being the one who lacks intellectually

>>8387514


*because he's an alpha male

>>8387443
>watching anime and reading manga enriches the mind

what am I reading

>>8387523
>/lit/ isn't just about fiction

Still, 99% of their content is not technical. I'd even claim 100% but I would risk being wrong when you save your ass by making a thread about analysis textbooks and then linking it here

>See! We smurtz 2!

>>8387527
This is dumb. I am literally just 18. I just got inside the business and you want to compare my earnings with a veteran.

>>8387529
This is not what I claimed. My claim is much stronger than that. I say that solitary activities where you self examine enriches your mind.

If you watch a show, even a basic netflix show and then internally debate what you saw with yourself. Why did you enjoy some parts? Why did you not enjoy others? Etc. That gives you true insight. That enriches the mind.

On the other hand, if you watch the same show drunk with your friends and then talk about how cute the main guy was while drinking starbucks, you learned nothing. You learned fucking nothig.

I do not make facebook posts about the math books I read. That is enough to draw a line between technical readers and traditional literature readers.

I also do not make facebook posts about the manga I read. That is another line drawn that, this time between non-traditional for-pleasure readers and traditional for-pleasure readers and their basic ways.

>>8387544
You're a child, of course you like cartoons, dude.

>>8387544

ok my nigga

one day you'll realize that no matter how smart you are, it all comes down to the human relations

>>8387555
Yeah yeah, you know nothing about this culture. I get it.

>>8387557
Oh, the alpha man himself. The man who makes 500k a year without ever having to speak a word to people outside his field. My man. My nigga. Terence 'Fuck your twin while she is in her prime' motherfucking Tao. That is a man I respect.

>>8387566

Tao is a major Aph+

>>8387557
>>8387584
As a fellow autistic savant, I wish I was as gifted as him. :/

>>8387584
If he told me that to finish his proof for the twin prime conjecture he needed to crush one final boipussy to get the last revelation, I would tell him that he can even cum inside if he wants. Just add me as one of the researchers of the paper... and choke me a little Mr. Tao.

>>8387398
Ha, I read all of Stephen King's books in the eighth grade. Everybody said i was smart and patient. Meanwhile, I was barely passing my classes.

>>8387587

seasonally, Tao comes in my dreams and fucks me mathematically

>>8387345
>no novel content comes from /gif/ /s/ etc.

What about all those 3 seconds gifs with

"wow, bro, now that you turned into a sissy bitch you better eat big sis's cum."

printed over it?

>>8387594
I am sure that is not chalk, he writes with his fresh cum right out of his manly, giant, thick AF asian delicious cock.

>>8387598

*so forths at you*

>>8387584
How do I become like Master Tao?

>>8387616

by being born again

>>8387621
What about breeding with him?

>>8387654

>Expects me to believe someone bearing a vagina browses /sci/

highly unlikely

>>8387337
I like it, just keep /sci/ and /hum/ - Literature and Humanities separate.

>>8387337
>/gif/ merging into /prn/
>/wsg/ merging into /i/
This could be a really good thing or a really bad thing

>merging /ic/ with anything
please god no don't touch the cozy board

>>8387505
/v/ isn't fine at all

/v/ is fucking cancer

>>8387668
30% of people that browse this site are women. So it's not necessarily unlikely for a girl to browse this board.

>>8388032
Trannies don't count.

>>8387354
>no mention at all of /trash/
I am intrigued but also scared

So would the merged boards become bigger or is it still the same max number of threads? That would be fucking awful.

>>8387398

Merged with disgusting /lit/ and /his/.

Please kill me. Why is kek so cruel?

>board merging
this is just a troll image right?

>>8387337
Oh no, fuck, pls don't merge /sci/ with non-STEM that will be a constant shitstorm.

It took year's for peace to blossom between /sci/ and /lit/ and now you want to merge the goddamn boards?

>>8387337
>academia
are you serious?

holy fuck its going to be a shit fest.

>>8387398
This.

Fuck everyone else, reading fiction is on the exact same level as watching fantasy movies don't fucking kid yourselves retards.
