Good morning I choose not going through your sister's things.
  • Being used to protect against Ant Man.

  • Prominent activist’s son convicted of storming Capitol and invading Senate floor in Jan. 6 riot
  • Those don't need to be consecutive. King Charles III's father was not King Charles II. So he could just be the 4th in his family with that name. And the dad was the 3rd in family with the other name.

    But it's also possibly a nickname thing.

  • inquisitive
  • Don't worry. You'll learn object permanence any time now.

  • A Legally Besieged Trump Focuses on a Personal Goal: Revenge Against Hillary Clinton
  • Actually maybe.

    He probably thinks if she had won, he could have just acted angry and then not done all the 2020 election stuff. Could start his TV network or whatever?

  • Good, clear shot of the property.
  • This feels like malicious compliance.

    Like the photographer was told they must stand in the very corner of the yard even after they pointed out the tree was in the way.

  • *X-Files theme starts*
  • It's a file stolen from X...

  • The effects of aging
  • after my equilibrium dies

    Metabolism?

  • What's the stupidest rule your school ever enforced?
  • Everyone should have started wearing pants with a ton of text on it.

  • The North Atlantic just completely destroyed its June average temperature record
  • The slow change and then tipping point is probably less to do with building up inertia and more in line with how a buffered system works.

  • Bad luck spez
  • So many users didn't know the difference. And probably thought mods were paid to work. And didn't bother to read any of the stickies or links subreddits posted explaining the whole situation.

  • Never eat gas station sushi, and other dining tips
  • Makes sense when you look at what the ratings used to mean (2 stars mean "worth a detour" and 3 stars meant "worth a special journey"). They wanted to find restaurants to get people to use cars and potentially drive out of their way which would increase tire sales.

  • Delete all your Reddit content
  • They are probably reverting to a backup copy they have from before the protest started. Not just simply undeleting the comment.

    Honestly, I think people should keep their accounts so they can redo the post and comment edits and/or deletes if necessary.

  • These Stupid Trucks are Literally Killing Us | Not Just Bikes [35:26]
  • It's not a small part of consumer vehicles in the USA anymore.

    Don't have to ban gas trucks but there shouldn't be special breaks that incentivezes car companies to push them on people.

    Battery mining and shipping should definitely be accounted for. But oil also requires extraction and transportation.

  • The Verge reacting to Reddit's spokesperson trying to discredit them
  • I don't trust reddit reporting that value accurately. Not saying it is a huge percentage, but they likely doing some things to minimize the numerator and maximize the denominator.

    But yeah, definitely about control. They could have monetized users on third party apps with more reasonable API pricing. People would probably have barely noticed and that'd be new revenue for reddit that didn't exist before.

  • What is this device?
  • "Semper fi" maybe?

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • perfectloops @lemmy.ml jwu @lemmy.ml

    What is this? A mobius strip for ants?!

    Reddit CEO Steve Huffman on blackout: It's expensive to run a company.
  • The fact that he was a mod on jailbait is kind of a distraction. It's funny in concept, but at the time, mods could just add anyone else as a mod instead of sending an invite to be a mod. So anyone could be assigned as a mod for an embarrassing subreddit.

    There's some problematic power tripping mods and those incidents are the most visible, but probably >99% of mod actions are essentially unnoticed and just keeping subreddits relatively organized. And people were doing that for free. If reddit isn't profitable, then pissing off moderators that were doing work for free does not seem like a good approach.

    I doubt he was targeting moderators directly, but that's what ended up happening in part.

    Using the percentage of mods that use 3rd party apps is disingenuous (if that stat is even correct). There's probably tons of mods on low volume subreddits that don't need to do much and thus don't use the mod tools on 3rd party apps. But I bet the percent of mod actions that come through the API vs native is very different than counting it by mod that use the API vs native. As in, a small percentage of mods on big subreddits are probably doing a lot of moderation and they are probably using 3rd party apps at least part of the time.
