The “hivemind” ignoring the correct information or even worse, encouraging the wrong information.

Does anyone else remember the whole Boston Bomber fiasco (i.e. We did it, Reddit)?

Good

You are now a mod of c/Pyongyang

“I was on my knees this entire weekend.”

Someone was describing how they’d been pulling out weeds out of their garden.

When you’re incredibly tired, anywhere is a good place to catch up on some sleep.

Electroboom!

He’s an electrical engineer and makes videos on YouTube (and if you were worried, knows how to get shocked and not get killed).

Balaji then revealed his shocking ideas for a tech-governed city where citizens loyal to tech companies would form a new political tribe clad in gray t-shirts. “And if you see another Gray on the street…you do the nod,” he said, during a four-hour talk on the Moment of Zen podcast. “You’re a fellow Gray.”

The Grays’ shirts would feature “Bitcoin or Elon or other kinds of logos … Y Combinator is a good one for the city of San Francisco in particular.” Grays would also receive special ID cards providing access to exclusive, Gray-controlled sectors of the city. In addition, the Grays would make an alliance with the police department, funding weekly “policeman’s banquets” to win them over.

“Grays should embrace the police, okay? All-in on the police,” said Srinivasan. “What does that mean? That’s, as I said, banquets. That means every policeman’s son, daughter, wife, cousin, you know, sibling, whatever, should get a job at a tech company in security.”

What in tarnation?

Microsoft: the beatings will continue until morale improves

The payments to the couple went through a Texas-based shell company owned by Imelda Cuellar and two of the couple’s children, according to the indictment. That company received payments from the Azerbaijan energy company of $25,000 per month under a “sham contract,” purportedly in exchange for unspecified strategic consulting and advising services.

Sounds like bribery to me.

I take it you haven’t had the opportunity to meet anyone that grew up on the southern USA.

“Get” would be absolutely be colloquial for what you said.

Hmm. Maybe Beehaw?

There are a few niche communities I also keep up with since they didn’t really express the desire to move elsewhere.

I’ve been viewing them with old.reddit.com without logging in.

The one where he’s teary eyed is outstanding

I’ve read two takes on this before:

  1. The cavity of your head helps project the signal to your car

  2. The water molecules in your head amplify the radio waves to reach your car

It’s available in the App Store if you have an iPhone!

You know, even though I think you approached in good faith, the moderator team over there has probably changed a lot, especially with Reddit now being public.

It wouldn’t surprise me if certain stories are suppressed because of how much attention/views Reddit as a whole can draw (and potentially influence).
