So... They're going to force reopen the subs before the API turn off and claim the protests had no effect?

"Sorry to the inhabitants of the proposed Stevenson Avenue, your road has been cancelled due to leaves on the plot, a member of staff will guide you to our tent replacement service."

It's like they're trying to kill the platform

Maybe one of these?

On AliExpress: 12.7mm USB 2.0 DVD/CD-ROM Case , IDE/ PATA to SATA Optical Drive External Enclosure For Laptop https://a.aliexpress.com/_Evga3Y0

Looks like a high density IDE connector.

I'd shop around for similar products, not sure if you need USB, SATA or just big IDE.

It's not just the poor level of pay, it's also the crippling workload and lack of progression. Beyond a certain point your only way to progress up the pay scale is to move into the middle management of schools, which becomes less and less actual teaching, so to get slightly more reasonable pay you have to sacrifice the reason you got into teaching in the first place. For the teachers I know who've quit though, they could never be paid enough to get back into teaching, the workload and stress, the lack of backup with agressive pupils, hostile work environement generally (multiple people have said the kids are bad for bullying, but the staff are worse). We need to look at teaching in other countries and take note, because they way we've set it up isn't working.

I find pinning my WhatsApp tab sorts that out, it seems to autoload pinned tabs into memory on launch.

The dual stack firmware was deprecated because of issues, I believe.

How is an hourly salary that low allowed? It's not the customer exploiting the server, its the business surely.

Also, its already out there. Already been crawled by AI and hopefully preserved by individuals and the IA etc. What're they gonna do, a full rewrite?

Finally.

Then the only recourse is malicious compliance, a mod team running the sub into the ground over a few months? Or let Reddit appoint wholely unsuitable mods and laugh as the sub is run into the ground anyway. Either that or they appoint Reddit staff to moderate, their staff are stretched too thin with the extra workload (many subs will need new mods) and the sub/s collapse, or they hire more staff to moderate and the company crumbles under the inflated wage bill (explains why they desperately want any sympathetic existing mods to take on as much responsibility as possible, free labour).

Basically I don't see this ending well for Reddit.

Ahh, the finest chinesium

I would assume that means they also plan to replace the real people who left the platform with activity from bot accounts to make it seem like business as usual for the planned IPO.

Why has IRC not been mentioned? The basics of Discords UX is based on it after all.

I wonder where he expected the shortfall to come from when he cut council budgets...

As long as I can turn it off.

Just gonna leave this here https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YeH5UXYEzPE Economics explanation from an ex city banker, I've found things he says tend to happen.

Just gotta watch out for the old EEE tactics Microsoft has pulled in the past, if they manage to stuff content into ActivityPub posts against the spec which encourage people to move to their "compatible" service and making the normal apps seem broken. Google does the same thing with Chrome features against web standards set by the W3C.

This is great, if it works, on my 8500t I had nothing but problems.

I FOUND IT! I ACTUALLY FOUND IT! I had exhausted all my more targeted ways of finding it and resorted to Google images searching for "point and click game bar" and found a screenshot I recognised.

The game is Mudlarks.

Sorry for the couple of details I misremembered, and thank you to everyone trying to help.
