And despite the extra lanes, it's still gridlocked. Maybe they need just one more lane...

Reddit user alleges California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) non-compliance/violation; and finds it difficult to delete posts and content on Reddit
I made a GDPR request through reddithelp.com last night; maybe I shouldn't have bothered! Assuming I don't hear back, I'll resend the request via email then report them to the Information Commissioner (UK gov dept) if I've had no proper response.
By the way, I'm not sure if the California law is the same, but with a GDPR "right to be forgotten" request, the organisation must delete your data from their backups (or at least make sure your data will not be restored from a backup). Asking you to delete your own comments clearly won't meet that requirement.

alright who's gonna tell them
The widespread use of Discord baffles me. It seems to be basically IRC with voice chat and no choice in servers. It's good for group voice chat with people you already know, but I can't see how it fits any other use case like being a replacement for a subreddit community.

If you're trying to directly compare different variable types in any language without strong typing, you're going to have edge-case results which you might not expect.
My "coding like a moron" message still stands. PHP isn't a strongly typed language and it doesn't tell you off for trying stupid stuff like comparing a string with an int. Nor do other languages like JavaScript.

The trick is to only use DDG and nothing else. I haven't used Google for years so I have no idea how crap the DDG results are in comparison...

Boris Johnson 'deliberately' misled MPs over partygate, report finds, and should be banned from parliament
Reply in thread
He only cares as far as his ego takes him, which is a fair amount - he started damage control before the report even came out (calling the committee liars, hypocrites, etc).

Joe Pasquale impaled in freak moose antler incident in Skegness
Reply in thread
He's carting these huge fucking antlers around on a national tour just for the lamest of lame puns. He must have workshopped this "gag" and miraculously not died on his arse, for him to decide it's worth hauling the antlers around. Baffling.

Bye Reddit. So long and thanks for all the fish.

It seems that there's an issue where Reddit rate-limits the comment editing, so many comments don't get edited. There are other versions of the script which add a 5 second delay to avoid getting limited.

He resigned as Prime Minister lasy year but he still attended parliament as the Member of Parliament for his area Uxbridge and South Ruislip. He's now resigned as MP.

I'd second Before The Storm. It's not better than the first game, but it's excellent story-wise.
I've also played True Colours. It's pretty good in places but nowhere near as good as the LiS/BtS.

[Episode 1068] Moon Princess Echoes! The Final Phase of Wano Country!
The episode was solid, although this is a sort of wrap-up of subplots in between big mom and kaido, so it's not too exciting compared to what's coming in a few episodes...

Liz Truss says being compared to a lettuce was not funny
The fact that she finds it unfunny makes it even funnier.
It's not surprising she completely lacks a sense of humour, considering she's lacking in many other ways.

I just tested these out out of curiosity.
0=="text" returns false in PHP 8.2 as I'd expect.
The others make sense in the way that php juggles between types. An empty variable can type-juggle to null, but an array can't be directly compared with a string.
(Although you wouldn't really want to compare an array with a string, PHP just treats an array as greater than other variables. So weirdly, ([] > "") == true.)
