Of course he did. I guarantee he's also said something like "I can't support a candidate who sits down to pee because his dick is so small when he pees standing he just pees on his balls."
On kbin, if you hover over the user name, you can easily block them forever. Super cool! 👍
The right/bigots is always talking about the gay agenda. We don't have one.
Okay, but you can tell me what the gay agenda really is. Is it like the Jew agenda? Seems like that one came up a lot before people switched to talking about the gay agenda.
Absolutely have to love all of the people on mastodon especially being like "but this makes the fediverse bigger what can go wrong" takes.
I do this on the weekend, in fact, just did very similar today. I can give two tips:
If you microwave potatoes first (poke holes) to par-cook them, then you just need to get them crispy. I usually don't, and just start with potatoes at medium in before the oil has really heated , stirring every 5 minutes for the first 20 or so, then more often when they get to crisping. The best is definitely using leftover baked potatoes or roasted potatoes from the night before.
Second, if you have an air fryer, that's increasingly my go to. We have a basket style, I coat in a little oil or use veg spray, and roast around 350 for 10-15, and then turn it up to 400 once the potatoes are tender for color.
Neither of these are weekdays for me, but I can throw this together on weekends where I mostly don't have to do anything.
Discord seems to be sort of adapting to that? In the /r/iosbeta discord, they have topics that sort of act like reddit posts. But yeah, so far, I'm just all over the place. A couple of lemmy instances, Kbin primarily, and a lot of mastodon, with discord filling in when I'm bored. Although discord is very bad as a replacement for reddit/twitter, the nostalgia and it feeling very IRC is kinda nice.
It really doesn't matter if they have anyone left that knows anything about anything. All reports thus far is that anyone not giving the ol' "aye captain" any time Elon says anything gets shitcanned. I'm sure there is someone there that probably went "but, sir..." before immediately getting shut down.
Now if you had to guess how often I remember that there is a keyboard shortcut that does this, but don't remember what it is, and do remember that I can just press up 30-70 times...
I've said this before and I'll say it again, I don't think the largest wave of users leaving has hit yet. Once the big apps shut down today, I think there is going to be another wave that actually leaves, and then it's just going to trickle out for months probably as reddit gets less relevant since the people actually making the content are likely to be the ones to move.
Well, I have good news and I have bad news.
Bad news first - I think a lot of the reason this doesn't exist on federated services is largely because those services are in their infancy and principled people or at least people with slightly more than lukewarm IQs are more likely to seek them out.
Good news - the capitalist nature of corporate social media means that at scale you have to tolerate a certain number of nazis and bigots. See also: the recall scene from Fight Club. The fediverse largely doesn't have that problem. We don't have to say "we have to keep this account on the network because they're boosting the ad numbers" we can just fucking ban them.
In the short term for the fediverse, it's a little security by obscurity. In the longer term, it's really more of a moderation problem, but even there I'm optimistic. Over on reddit, there were/are a few subs where if you blocked every user subscribed, you'd lose no value even in other subs. instances are going to be similar, I bet.
I use DDG as my primary, and my general feeling is that I don't mind some advertising to make money, but Google is objectively bad these days. At the time I started using DDG, Google was still probably the better choice in terms of search results. These days, DDG is competitive, but more importantly, I don't have to scroll past half a page of ads masquerading as results.
This, pretty much. Pretty hard to be 100% game accurate and make a good movie. Appreciated where they took license, and where they stuck to some (often, obscure) lore.
No spoilers: it's a 5-6/10. I generally don't like Ezra's or the writer's take on Barry, but that almost gets out of the way. The CGI ranges from bad to really bad, but the movie does actually do a decent job of acknowledging the DC universe, and the dialogue/plot mostly make sense. There is some great fan service that probably carried the movie for me. It's one of the better entries in the DCU, which means it's a good popcorn flick that no one is going to be talking about in a few weeks.
Oh, one other thing I'll toss in with tiny spoilers if you haven't even watched a trailer - it's a multiverse movie, and had this come out 2-3 years ago might have significantly changed how I think about it. That said, especially after No Way Home and Across the Spider-Verse, it's hard not to compare to those and they're both way, way better movies. Watching it a week after AtSV especially, it really doesn't fair favorably.
Why warp? I just downloaded, and when I was immediately prompted to create an account, I just tossed in the trash.
Lest we forget how dumb reddit is, they didn't have a mobile strategy in 2014, which necessitated buying Alien Blue.
If you look at the history of reddit, it has succeeded entirely in spite of management decision. Gotta say, even being on the site since 07-08, even I got this wrong. I expected reddit to do something dumb, I just didn't expect them to do the most dumb thing.
They took a 250m funding round and used it to build an nft site. reddit's problems are 100% self created. Think about how ama's used to be and how they managed to kill that. They could have had several revenue streams just based on ama's.
I think this whole thread/post is over-thinking it. If all reddit wanted was to break-even or make some profit off of the api, they wouldn't have priced it this way. They would have had changed the api to a key system and then created a two tier pricing system: third party apps like RIF and Apollo, and a large commercial license for LLM training and such.
This is fuck you pricing. As in, if you don't want to take a job, you tell them the price is 8x your normal hourly rate. You either get that bag or more likely, they don't offer the job. Although I say this with less certainty than I would have a month ago seeing exactly how stupid reddit is about all of this, I can't believe that anyone at reddit is so out of touch they actually thought any of the third party app devs could afford this pricing, and if they did and it wasn't just to kill apps, they would changed the pricing structure and not triple/quadrupled down.
This is just Huffman going after the IPO so he can get his golden parachute and peace out. I would absolutely put money on him being out less than a year after IPO, with the small asterisk that as bad as he's fumbling right now the board might kick him before that.
Same setup here, though since i'm on basically all Apple devices when iOS 17 public beta is out I'm going to switch to just using the built in manager. Supports two factor, and the main achilles for me was that I couldn't share passwords, but that's fixed for 17.
