The Big List of Elon Musk’s Hyperbole, Evasions, and Outright Lies
  • not really a falsehood if youre just directly quoting someone as stating they are going to do something, and then pointing out that that thing did not happen.

    i think its called "reporting"

  • Private equity groups bet on UK healthcare as NHS waiting lists grow
  • is this the same bullshit they pull in the US where they suck all the funding out of a perfectly functioning system, which cripples it. then they get to point at that system as a failure the only answer to which seems to be 'privatization'?

  • Microsoft’s cloud ambitions for Windows could kill off desktop PCs – and sooner than we expected
  • youre right, the hardware will never go away.... but there are many in the cloud-only corporate space where hardware is almost irrelevant as every single piece of software, including windows, is provisioned from the net. thats today. whats tomorrow going to look like for retail?

  • Redit pathing error
  • i figured this out.. i had failed to reapply, 'redump' the .env file

  • Reddit braces for life after API changes
  • ive made super lucky charms. 80% marshmallows seems to be the sweet spot.

  • Deputy Tolstoy called the ban on gender reassignment a matter of Russia’s national security
  • russian national security is so fragile its sensitive to gender? oh damn

  • Nearly a quarter of Republicans say classified docs charges make them more likely to support Trump: poll
  • i have more sympathy than anything else for them. i see them as a very sad lot, who desperately need psychiatric counseling and for many, an actual education.

    dehumanizing them dehumanizes you

    Redit pathing error

    despite specifying 127.0.0.1 in the .env, i am still getting an error attempting a (i think) default path of @redis.

    where else would this be defined/configured besides the local .env?

    YouTube is technically the most irreplaceable social media platform
  • there are far too many communicative platforms and protocols for any 'social media' site to be 'irreplaceable'. i find the notion hilarious.

  • BotDefense is wrapping up operations : r/BotDefense
  • i just shut down a worlgroup server a few years ago... mostly up for majormud.

    i with those asshats at the majorbbs restoration project would just release all the source code. they clutch those pearls like theyre valuable in some way

  • aol/prodigy were 'the net' to the general public by 94. i remember writing xmodem scripts to download boobie picks from single line bbs' ~89.

  • Why are Americans so obsessed with dentistry?
  • their point was that the british dental healthcare is as adequately provided for as in the US, where children die from lack of dental healthcare. ie, its not.

  • How do you guys back up your server?
  • dont overthink it.. servers/workstations rsync to a nas, then sync that nas to another nas offsite.

  • isnt he also a religious whackjob? best cooking show since yan though

  • So where are we all supposed to go now?
  • i think discord started as an irc extension, which is why it still has a ton of hooks for it

  • Can some one explain how the microblog feature works.
  • reddit = [link aggregate] threaded forum
    twitter = user broadcasting/user following nonsense
    fediverse = reddit + twitter
    microblog button is the twitter side to the fediverse/kbin instance where people can shout into the void, and other can follow.. i guess.

  • 'Rate limit exceeded;' Twitter down for thousands of users worldwide

    Reddit Block – Get this Extension for 🦊 Firefox (en-US)

    long time listener first time caller. been on reddit 15+, but the end is nigh. I have never used 3rd party apps.. always found the old, mostly-text layout completely sufficient for mobile browser use.

    but... solidarity, ya know? i will need this plugin to prevent fallin off the wagon.
