Reddit launches moderator rewards program amid sitewide discontent
  • I pop into reddit occasionally with my ad blocker turned off. Any companies still popping up there are added to my shit list.

  • What is an absurdity that has been normalized by society?
  • Health insurance tied to your job.

  • Denver's entire downtown is a 45 degree slant from the rest of the city so the image is questionable...

  • Do we really need these many posting bots?
  • In some places it makes sense: Memes, jokes, "self sufficient content". But when exmormon has post titles with questions but are posted by a bot, that's useless. There's no interacting with OP.

    I think each community has to decide if their content is supported by these bots or not.

  • The Outer Worlds might scratch the same itch if you're looking for something newer. Made by the New Vegas people: Obsidian. It's a little small but they're working on a sequel.

  • It tastes... clear
  • I read something, probably on Reddit, about how during TV interviews they record several seconds of "silence" in the same room as the interview because during editing if they want to remove something, they can't just zero out the audio, that's TOO silent and doesn't sound right. Instead they overwrite the sound with this silence and it sounds more natural.

    The flavor of water is the background silence that's not nothing.

  • Wisconsin lawsuit asks new liberal-controlled Supreme Court to toss Republican-drawn maps
  • What are some examples of well drawn congressional maps?

  • Yahaha! Oof!
  • Revenge for all the times I dropped the rock back on their head.

  • What is the worst advice you've ever heard?
  • "Ignore the bullies and they'll leave you alone."

  • life has no meaning
  • Pessimistic and Optimistic Nihilism

  • Best DNS for privacy?
  • /etc/hosts

  • Be careful. New platforms invite bad actors.
  • If you ran your browser as root and configured your browser to load local resources on non-local domains maybe. I think you can do that in chrome://flags but you have to explicitly list the domains allowed to do it.

    I'm hoping this is just a bad joke.

  • Be careful. New platforms invite bad actors.

    Found the error Not allowed to load local resource: file:///etc/passwd while looking at infosec.pub's communities page. There's a community called "ignore me" that adds a few image tags trying to steal your passwd file.

    You have to be extremely poorly configured for this to work, but the red flags you see should keep you on your toes for the red flags you don't.

    What are you working on Wednesday
  • It's not that simple. Parsing isn't a problem, it's formatting with a timezone that sucks. It's a pinch point in a lot of different ways. Because MomentJS is in maintenance mode and the Temporal library isn't ready yet, I tried to do it in vanilla JS. Date objects don't do a good job of keeping track of timezone. You can only apply the timezone when converting the Date object to a string with .toLocaleString(locale, {timeZone: "America/New_York"}) and the formatting rules available are not capable of producing the desired not-quite-ISO8601Nanos timestamp (I don't want it to be in UTC, I want that layout with a trailing timezone offset). I fell back to moment but moment-timezone doesn't work well with the Jest tests as they're written. I plan to rewrite a lot when the Temporal library is prod ready but that won't be before this sprint is over.
