thank you for posting this, it annoys me to no end the amount of "omg this happened now on reddit" posts that link to the source on reddit. Like that defeats the purpose of leaving the platform if I'm forced to go back anyway and give them traffic. Make a mirror, stop giving the site more traffic lol

Right, so many sites try their hardest to have every thing hosted on their own platform, then they put stupid High restrictions on what you can actually do with the content because of the fact that they're now having everything on their own host. Switching from peer to peer to Cloud hosted was in my opinion the beginning of the downfall for Skype. It removed a lot of its permissions that you could give on the platform, it broke compatibility of the Unix Community which took them two and a half years to finally fix, and it actually butchered their reliability

despite 3 different links, not one of them worked on connect, sadness lol

This is a super simple setup, the elevator has both a north and a south door. but the ground floor (0) only has a north exit meaning that they never added a ground south floor. but they wanted aesthetics over functionality so instead of having an empty button slot and moving everything up, they changed the number so the south wing starts at 1 and north wing at 0

I actively avoid sites that do this, if I find that I'm on the site enough to Warrant getting the app I'll get the app. I actually didn't realize that Reddit enforced this until about 5 or 6 months ago because they didn't enforce that when I first started using reddit, I had already moved over to third party applications before they implemented the system. Not that it matters much anymore, I uninstalled any apps I had for the platform and blocked it for the house. I'm done with it

honestly thats not bad compared to some. I saw an internship yesterday that had a salary range 120-160k and required 12 years of experience with a masters. I had to double check that it was actually an internship cause holy cow

My main reason? The administration team, I can understand needing money and wanting to charge for the API services, and while they were higher than normal I would have probably been okay with paying a subscription to help keep the third party app I was using running.

That was until I saw the CEOs response to the development community and anyone who remotely asked about it. That was before he absolutely butchered the ama, and before he slandered one of the largest third-party developers in the community, and then when being called with evidence the bull crap he was spreading instead decided to attack said Community member saying that he didn't realize that it was recorded and that he stands by what he said. That was before he decided to threaten the moderator teams on the platform who may I remind you was working for free as volunteers comparing them to a landed gentry.

It is very clear that what he says publicly is polar opposite of how he administrates, he may say that Reddit is an open Community where the community has final say, but his actions say completely otherwise; it's his way or the highway. And since he is the CEO of the platform I'm choosing the highway and clearly I'm not the only one.

At this point even if he decided to do a complete 180, and made a formal apology to the site and reversed the actions of the API changes(which I personally think financially wise would be unwise they should have funneled it into Reddit Gold somehow) I wouldn't go back, it's clear how the leadership is on the site and quite frankly that's not something I want to contribute to.

I limited my shopping on Amazon the last few years. Too many "deals" that are the same during prime day as off. Like I was looking at a set of weights, was 199 now 99, they have been 99 for the last month now, the "deal" is now changed to "prime day exclusive" and price stayed the same. Yea... definitely prime day exclusive... definitely worth actually browsing the platform for these sales.

hard pass on hybrids. Every hybrid I've known if has had super pricey transmission/clutch issues. I've had too much bad luck with them.

I would go full EV or full gasoline/diesel before going hybrid

don't say that too loud, they might disable it lmao

the new steam sucks hardcore. I hate everything to do with it. It's buggy, it lags, you can't use themes, it crashes randomly, it memory leaks. Heck it was suck bad performance that they pushed the beta back multiple times before finally releasing it and its still not ready.

it 100% did, google removed over half the twitter links on its index due to dead links/login requirements, which if kept like that would basically kill all Twitter traffic since most traffic comes from search engines

Looking into Matrix...(again apparently because I had an account already logged in on element) I hate to say it but, I can't forsee myself ever using that. It's waaay too complicated while simplistic at the same time. There is a permission system but, this is more similar to IRC then discord. Graphics wise it's super basic and easy to use, but I can forsee that being way too much of a pain to moderate or administrate on.

its not real. it's a rendered image, but man does it give me the creeps

They should be reporting it for not being a data compliant either, the app is marked that you have the ability to delete your data but in retrospect the only thing you can delete is your username, all your posts end up changing to deleted user but doesn't actually get removed

sadly with the increasing DRM protections, the legality of it isn't as clear anymore. Breaking a protected standard is still illegal, which in my opinion is really stupid because if it was for archival purposes from something you own, I feel it should be in the same category as self repair/right to repair acts.

currently you lose everything. I'm hoping they add a transfer tool like how masodon(i think it was that) has with transferring accounts

It's a quote taken from the earlier days of Facebook, he's actually admitted to saying it' true, but says that at that time he was dumb and that he regrets making the IM's

ZUCK: yea so if you ever need info about anyone at harvard

ZUCK: just ask

ZUCK: i have over 4000 emails, pictures, addresses, sns

FRIEND: what!? how’d you manage that one?

ZUCK: people just submitted it

ZUCK: i don’t know why

ZUCK: they “trust me”

ZUCK: dumb fucks

there's a few pages talking about it but this goes into pretty nice detail

judging a quick read of that, it seems most if not all of the changes only apply to commercial use(thankfully), they even specify it under the personal use area,so that makes me feel a little better. That being said I made it to no name brands such as mods with branded automobiles before my ADHD brain lost interest as well

"well there's a program for it but, it's super buggy, just use the command line"
