I’m glad they accounted for mountains. Otherwise, this would seem unrealistic.

AITA for telling my kids about my wife's cheating?
NTA
The details of the affair aren’t their business, but the fact that it happened definitely is. She didn’t just betray you; she betrayed the entire family. You made the right choice. They were old enough to understand, and they deserved to know the truth. They deserved to know that their mother could have handled things differently, but was willing to destroy their family. Even divorcing instead of cheating would have been better. She’s just mad because her kids know what a piece of shit she is, and she’s taking it out on you.

What are your thoughts on bots reposting links to Reddit posts?
I’m not in favor of it at all. If a human user wants to link to something interesting/relevant, fine, but I’m not excited about bots spamming links.

Texas power prices briefly soar 1,600% as a spring heat wave is expected to drive record demand for energy
Oh, Texas. Your power grid is an endless source of amusement (for people who don’t have to rely on it, of course).

YSK: While you're on Lemmy/Kbin/Fediverse, you're not "the product" but you're also not "the customer".
Mostly what I feel is gratitude. Personally, I don’t have the skills, technical knowledge, or free time required to run even a small instance. I know I’m relying on the generosity of others, which makes me much more tolerant of delays, glitches, etc.

Reddit mods are calling for an ‘affordable return’ for third-party apps
Reddit has given several responses, full of contempt, belittlement, and insults. Oh, and threats. Can’t forget the threats.
Hey reddit mods: reddit doesn’t give a damn about you, your sub, or the community you built. Yes, it sucks. Yes, it hurts. Don’t be a fool and wait around for another response. The sooner you move on from reddit, the better off you’ll be.

White House considering bulletproof vest for Trump after third assassination attempt on president: report
I can imagine him milking this for all it’s worth, but I can’t imagine him actually wearing a vest in all but the most extreme circumstances. They’re too damn uncomfortable, and he wouldn’t tolerate that.

How do you cope with, life and the decaying world around you?
Simple, short term pleasures, abandoning of long term plans, and taking comfort in the fact that I have not (and will not) bring children into this world.

[USA] Presidential Debate Mega Thread
I’m experiencing so many conflicting emotions right now. Horrified, amused, enthusiastic, resigned…
There’s smoke coming out of my ears, and I smell a burning clutch from constantly shifting gears.

The new system to replace Reddit coins and awards is here. You got out at the right time.
I had to keep reminding myself that it’s August, not April 1st. This is asinine.

What's the worst natural disaster you've been in?
The worst was also the funniest. An earthquake hit while I was on the toilet.

Elon apparently refusing to pay his Google Cloud bill
I thought I read something last week about Twitter and Google kissing and making up. Am I misremembering the story? What’s going on?
