My understanding of how this works is that that left one is real accounts making real comments, at least in the majority.

Then when the link gets reposted, either by a bot or naturally, potentially depending on the title, the bots scrape the old comments and post them.

It's content farming. And Reddit is probably okay with this.

This is so dumb, what is he thinking? What's the angle?

Dumbness aside, Twitter is only usable if you block all of the blue check spammers who add nothing to any discussion.

Maybe he's doing it so you can't block blue checks? But it still doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

Report spam and block. They've lost emailing privileges.

They get 100% of the tip, it's a legal requirement. The scummy part is the company does this to give you the opportunity NOT to tip, and therefore subsidize the food for shitty people.

Just in case, the few times I have ordered food, I put a dollar or two tip in the app, and add a note saying I'll give them a cash tip. Usually I'll give them a 2-4 Dollars more depending. If you're using these services you need to tip, that's how they make their livelyhood and feed their families.

It's a scummy business, and you should definitely try to avoid using it unless it's your only option for some reason. Your order will probably be at least $30, but do you know how much spaghetti you can make with $30??

It's honestly probably kleptomania. It's a serious problem for a lot of people, and there's no way this woman needs to shoplift, she could probably afford everything she steals.

To be fair, they need a house in their hometown and a house in DC. That can be extremely expensive. You want congressmen to be financially independent so that they don't need to accept bribes and such.

Blacklist the company from your emails. They have lost emailing privileges.

You guys are getting paid!?

CMUS! I'm surprised more people aren't using this. It's very cool, ultra lightweight, and easy to use. Maybe I just like stuff that runs in the console.

Perhaps millennia of sexual selection would have resulted in Hairy tails.

Anyone know what those figures are on the front? Are they characters or do they depict an animal?

You don't need to make an entire language, you only need a cypher.

I invite you to do some research of cryptography. There are ways to make messages and information inaccessible to anyone else, prying governments and businesses be damned.

You should also do research into online data privacy.

If this is something that you're genuinely worried about, there are steps that you can take to mitigate your risk.

I usually say thanks to either show genuine appreciation or to not sound demanding.

This is terrible. War is hell.

Fuck the Russian government for causing this violence. This is a violation of human decency.

The cost of the sugar is extremely minor compared to the price of bottling, transporting, and vending the tea.

I do not understand why anyone would use Outlook when thunderbird is free and, in my experience, much more functional.

NVIDIA fucking sucks. But I do a lot of modeling in blender and holy damn do I want that RTX.

Intercontinental nukes basically can't be shot down. This is because both sides can launch hundreds of rockets, each carrying multiple very small warheads. It's basically impossible to intercept.

The issue, besides making minimum wage workers lives hell, is that the carts offten end up in the street, and can become a hazard or hit people's cars. If it doesn't have a corral, then take it to the store. Otherwise take it to the corral.

3 megagrams is crazy for a vehicle like this. With the high torque electric wheels, they will be very hard on asphalt.

Next up will be resetting the volume control every video, or limiting the resolutions you can view at.

So you're not a believer in human rights I guess.

Read the article, he won't even be castrated until he is 100.

I know I'm stupid but how do you see the alt text?

In the US there is enormous investment in new NAND and other chips manufacturing. The government does not want these products and materials to be expensive or scarce. So the good news is the US gov will likely jump on this immediately.

Yeah. It's stupid and crummy, but it's a new key to bind. But then again, have you ever really used the context menu key? I have not.

I think it would probably go through you?

I didn't mean it like that. Rather, I was taken back by the paranoid and unfocused language being used.

It's important to call out even minor misinformation, even when it's for the "right" side. Especially then, because we need to keep ourselves disciplined, or we will fall into the same trappings as the opposition.

How is it unrelated? Are we not all discussing the specs of the vehicle? If weight is not a spec worth of discussion then I surely do not know what is.

With THOSE lips??

That's really strange, I haven't encountered either of those problems. The latter you can blame your distro for. If Firefox was bundled with all of the codecs it would be really big for no reason, and it would be redundant on nearly every system.

Honestly, most mid range phones are not built to last. When I spend hundreds of dollars on a phone, it needs to last for years and years.

Housing is clearly what I meant. You think DC has affordable apartments?

It actually took me a long time to realize I like vinegar. I've always liked sour food and pickles especially, but I never made the connection until a few years ago.

They need a house in DC and at home. Logically it should be double the minimum wage.

The word needs to get out about this somehow
