Reddit fumbing their own policies and implementations? Never happened before.
Verstappen: What happened mate?
Checo: I didnt see you coming. You got a very good run.
Verstappen: Oh. Ok. Not intentional?
Checo: No.
Checo: Turn 3 tho.
Verstappen: Oh, my mum is calling.
I'd say reduce the limit to 600 for verified accounts and unverified to 60 and new accounts to 30.
The world will be a better place.
Example. One of the better subreddits has a "few" rules.
The rules are too long for a post here.... so you get a small image.
Just no. Upvote and downvote is all you need.
Nobody wants to listen.
When it happens it's basically overnight. Like stretching a rubberband that you pull and pull and think it's fine. Then you pull just a little bit too hard and it snaps. It will be impossible to put it together again.
We are no more than a few years, maybe a decade away from the hottest countries being completely unlivable. We are talking about 2+ Billion people that needs to move in a very short time. It's coming and coming quickly. We're not ready. Billions will die.

Reddit seems to restrict posting so much in different subs that freedom of thought is impacted. One has to think if the post is within not only Reddit rules, but the special rules in the sub, and one had to make the title and post Reddit specific in style (simple, punny, meta). And if one happened to post a topic that was really good or great, a mod sometimes deleted the post anyway with a vague explanation.... and then you see the post appear by that same mod with slightly different wording as it was their own. Call them out on it and you were muted, and sometimes even banned. If one had a dissenting opinion on a topic, and brought forth a compelling argument, automatically the post was downvoted by the hive-mind and no discussion took place.
They called themselves the front page of the Internet. I found the doors closed and locked and all the pens out of ink.
RIF was always a very very good app. Probably the best app I have used on android.
Red Dwarf.
It's goofy. It's campy. It's sometimes terrible.
But it grows on you and by the time you are done through season 2 you love the show and only want more. And oh yes there is more, much more.
I pained myself through 2 seasons of Discovery hoping it would become better, but no. Just no. I'd go as far as stating it barely qualifies as Star Trek at all. As a generic TV show it even worse, bland and overall just flat. I didn't care about any of the characters and today I don't even recall 1 single characters name.
Picard is very uneven, but oh boy does it find it's footing. It's worth getting through S1 and S2 to get to the payoff in S3.
Other than those, Lower Desk is Trek through and through and through again. They.Nailed.It.
Why would I want pushed content from Meta of all places? I don't want to see that.
And no, we don't need to grow the Fediverse that way. It's better to stay independent and develop organically and become the next big thing, not eaten by some overstuffed corporation not able to innovate.
Learn from history. Don't repeat it!
Shocking! A Chinese company lying, cheating and abusing users data. Impossible I say.
Oh wait. It's wholly expected.
You'd be surprised how many jobs just requires you to sit in a chair all day looking busy.
I do my dayjob, in an office with the screen not visible to anyone else, and when there is no work to do I go ahead and do some of my independent work. I look busy as heck all 8 workhours. I get no extra reqests to "help out", or last minute critical whatever.
I make 2.5-3x my job salary.
It would be comical if it wasn't so sad.
The richest country on earth can't even maintain its own infrastructure. This is the 5th(?) such failure in short time that has made international news.
That same country suffers from economic troubles.
Solve both by funding infrastructure projects.
What's standing in their way?
Don't care about the reason why. Just get out.
Photoshop was the last program that kept me on Windows. Photopea.com does 95% of what my old Photoshop 5.5 does for me.
I'm 99% ready to move over to a Linux distro for day to day home use, and 90% done for work.
All my users are already dualboot ready, they just dont know it yet.
I suggest to make a list of program on Windows that are critical for you, and then make a list of programs on Linux (that are maintained) and install everything on a 2nd SSD. The cost is negligible and you can tinker as much as you want without breaking your Windows install in any way.
You can say goodbye to these legacy File Explorer options on Windows 11
