Fuck /u/Spez
Absolutely. This place may be less active, but discussions have definitely been much more civil and constructive. So far, I haven't had any toxic reactions to any of my comments, whereas on reddit no matter what you write or however careful you write it, there would always be someone taking offense at it or being awful in the comments.
I don't mind discussion or disagreement, but on reddit this often means "bringing the other guy down" instead of making your own point.
As this started happening more and more throughout the years, I've often wondered if it was me, if I was so out of touch, but it turned out it was really the children (redditors) who were wrong.

No, under the GDPR you don't have the right to have your content removed. You have the right to have personally identifiable data removed, things like names, IP addresses, phone numbers, ...
I'll link to the EU website that explains what they mean with personal data below, but I don't think a logo qualifies under their definition.

sync for reddit was
€1.5 for 10 years of joy
why deliberately pick such an untrue and inflamatory reason?
Yeah, that part really pisses me off. If they would have banned me for insulting /u/Spez or for a critical comment, I'd be mad but I'd wear it like a badge of honour. This is just the lowest of the low...
They can stick their api up their ass, i want them to burn.
That's my position too now. Until a week ago or so, I was holding out hope that reddit would change course and work something out with the app developers, now I hope reddit burns and turns into a complete shit heap.
Thanks to /u/Spez for opening his mouth, and to the admins for how they "handled" the protests.
... only for you to google: "burger restaurant near "
I settled on two.
Arch for my desktop, because there I like having an always up-to-date system with the latest drivers and libraries so that I can always try the latest versions of whatever it is I want to play with next. Pacman is also a pretty good package manager, and almost any piece of software that is not in the default repos can be found in the AUR. For the rest, I also like that Arch just gets out of your way and lets you configure your system how you want.
Debian for anything that runs unattended, like all my homelab services. It's well tested, offers feature stability, has long-enough support, and doesn't do weird things every other release like forcing snaps or netplan or cloud-init on you. Those "boring" qualities make it the perfect base to run something for a long time that doesn't scream for attention all the time.
You can't really blame this on the people. The centralized platforms offered something that for most people worked a lot better than what was already existing. In the beginning, those corporate platforms were actually quite good so it's only natural that people flocked to it.
It's only after those companies achieved a monopoly in their market, that they started pulling a bait-and-switch and began to enshittify their sites. Network effect makes it so that mass migration to something that's technically better is unlikely. This bait-and-switch is where they stole it from the people.
Nope. I made two comments about /u/spez before, but nothing like that and they're still visible in my history.
Unfortunately that has no chance of succeeding. When you sign up to reddit, you give them a license to use the content you submit. It's in the user agreement, section 5 "Your Content": https://www.redditinc.com/policies/user-agreement
afaik it was confirmed to be black and blue
I do believe it actually was black and blue, but I find it very hard to believe that anyone would perceive the way it is presented in this picture, with that lighting and level of overexposure, as black and blue.
Even looking at the RGB values of individual pixels, they are distinctly brown/gold-ish and a pastellish faded out purple.
They've already taken Voronezh as well, some 500km from Moscow and have been reported to be advancing through the Lipetsk province, 350km south of Moscow.
Brain chips? What was wrong with potatoes?
I do expect mods to moderate for free, because being unpaid also means that they're independent. That's an infinitely better situation than having anonymous paid mods who are accountable to a single corporation.
The problem is that reddit wants to have it both ways: they want to control the mods and treat them as subservient employees, yet at the same time still reap the benefits of their free work as they fuck them over by taking away the tools that make their job easier.
binbags :p
But who is supposed to trust whom?

Even boosting your own comments seems to increase your reputation
I don't know who that is, but Supernault is a wicked family name!
That goes for any unexploded ordnance, we are still cleaning up regular unexploded shells from World War 1 more than 100 years after the fact and every now and then it still claims a victim.
It sucks, but you have to offset that against the benefit. The longer the Russians occupy parts of Ukraine, the more atrocities they are able to commit against civilians (cf. Bucha, Irpin, Izium, Kherson,...). Also when people talk about the civilian casualties, they always forget that the bulk of the Ukrainian soldiers were civilians just over a year ago, and they would love nothing more than to return to a peaceful civilian life. Their lives are valuable as well and should be protected too.
If cluster munitions helps them to get rid of the Russians faster and with a lot less casualties, it is a trade off we should make.
Yeah, news about the war is one of the only reasons I still hold on to my reddit account. It may not appear in /r/all, but those subs contain a shitton of relevant content and active discussion about it.
For me all the dank* and *circlejerk subreddits.
The Russian Orthodox Church is a subsection of the FSB.
Wow /r/nosleep ... that brings me back to 2011. Loved reading it until the quality inevitably turned to shit.
There sure has been a lot of crack on r/interestingasfuck the past few days.
You don't waive your copyright. You grant a license to reddit to use your content.
Read the link, it's all there:
You retain any ownership rights you have in Your Content, but you grant Reddit the following license to use that Content:
...
Reddit to the mods: Users rely upon you and you have a duty towards the community, blablabla
Community: Hey Reddit, we want to continue to use our 3rd party apps
Reddit to community: Haha, fuck you peasants!
The real power of tmux, though, is that it manages the session you created.
So, one use case would be saving your current terminal setup. Instead of exiting the terminal and navigating to the project and setting up the environment again next time, you can simply detach and re-attach.
systemd: Oh yeah? Hold my beer
You are confused. What you are describing applies to transferring copyright, not for granting a license while retaining the copyright.
If things worked the way you described, free software, for example licensed through the GPL, couldn't exist because then the authors could always take away the users' rights by retroactively revoking their license. Fortunately, it doesn't work that way.
In those messages you can see all the stages of grief, minus acceptance, play out over the course of 1h20m.
This is such a terrible moralizing take ...
It didn't get the same attention because it had already happened, it was terrible, and nobody said otherwise, but there was no mystery or suspense about those peoples' fates. There was no ongoing story.
The Titan story is in the same vein as when workers get trapped in a mine for weeks, or like those children in a cave in Thailand. They weren't billionaires, yet the whole world still rallied behind them.
Also, to the columnist lady: you work for The fucking Guardian, if you felt that the migrant shipwreck story deserved more attention, why didn't you write about it then? I guess selling Western guilt gets more clicks huh?
He's just a bit chubbier. He got packaged as a flatpak.
There's no real "benefit" to Ukraine in this, is there?
Well, it appears that some of the baddies will be killing off each other, saving Ukraine the trouble.
The toxicity from FatPeopleHate, TheDonald and femaleDatingStategy ended up spilling over into all of the other communities over time, as they allowed those communities to flourish
Ironically, 3rd party apps like Sync allowed you to block entire subreddits from appearing on your r/all feed. I used that feature a lot to block out junk subreddits that I have zero interest in.
How will that help if they block you server side?
I get the feeling we are now talking about two different things. If by "cracked" you mean that someone can rip and redistribute the content once they get access to it, sure, it's very hard to protect against that.
What I mean is: it's possible to restrict access to the service so that you cannot watch a video unless you've played the ad first or you are a paying customer. As an example: Netflix or any of the movie streaming platforms. There's no add-on or special browser that allows you to use Netflix without being a paying customer, and if YouTube implements their plan, they can make it so you won't be able to circumvent it just by using Firefox, like you claimed.
For me it's simple: no sync, no reddit.
I'm never going to use their app.
Yeah that's not creepy at all.
I obviously did no such thing. I'm pretty sure I didn't upload or comment anything sexual at all, let alone something involving minors. Wouldn't that warrant a permanent ban anyway, instead of 3 days?
Of course I appealed, because I would like to know exactly which comment violated their rules, but I'm not really expecting a reply.
I do find it highly suspicious that the ban came 1 hour after I made a critical comment on ModCoord... (screenshot attached)
