he/him | a loser

The hinges on the meat chasm closed for all conservatives on 24 June 2022.

You know who else did this shit? Nazis.

I haven't been able to post a comment on The Verge since the redesign. Huh.

Anyways: All of spez's spedding can be explained easily enough: He is in IPO exit mode. He wants out of this business so he can go be a piece of shit.

He really thinks he can get the valuation on reddit. I'm here to tell him he's delusional. The window came and went with the interest rates. An adjusted value with a new S-1 is going to be a serious write down on the real value and that's when his days are numbered.

He basically upset 5% of the user base and even that small amount has done irreversible harm to reddit. Everyone knows he wants out. Everyone knows he's fudging MDAUs. Everyone knows reddit has never been profitable. Was it worth it, you tumbling duckweed?

Notice how it says nothing about Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. So nothing of value is lost.

What went wrong is simple and clear as day: People did not commit to their protest. Only a fraction of those who took part made the important step of quitting reddit altogether. Because the protest was limited, reddit absorbed the hit.

If you're not willing to give up your abuser, you're destined to be battered.

It is important to remember that you owe these platforms nothing. There is life after an endless stream of dopamine hits. Just walk out.

You know, that's not the worst thing to happen to me.

Racism in Alabama and Mississippi is normalized and as such, is ignored by the media

That's cool and all but I got my hopes on the Steam Deck still, simply because Valve cracked the "who needs Windows" nut

Historically, labor union participation has been an incredible motivator for policy changes, and Biden's maneuver was to detooth labor unions. I'm not saying I will stay home, but I was furious with his interference and I fear he'll do it again with the SAG-AFTRA or UPS labor actions, which would tilt me full into staying home, accepting the accelerationist "let it burn" approach, and probably moving to the UK or Canada (I am also a Commonwealth citizen).

The Dems need to stop being the diet center-right. This is all very frustrating and my time on this earth and my patience is running thin.

The political system in the US is too entrenched towards aged personals and nepotism.

Something trickled down but it tastes like piss

I still can't believe they're trying to make this fucking abomination Elon shit out in 2 seconds in Blender after he couldn't open Solidworks.

Oof. Even Google gives its products a longer runway than reddit does.

All these high visibility features shutting down has to come from a single point. I'm guessing they are cutting features with high AWS costs.

I'm betting that he's recorded hundred of hours so they can keep using him for the next decade.

I've had people working at Reddit tell me that old.reddit is so buried in there its removal would be hard. Which doesn't change the fact that they would pull it out of necessary. I'm guessing they'll find the routes for it and 301 anything to the new reddit. Easy enough change.

Rudy honestly thought he wouldn't get fucked.

They're expecting it to show up and as much as I want to see this trash fire, i'm not gonna.

Watching reddit crash and burn reminds me too much of watching Twitter crash and burn.

She looks like a topographical map of Idaho after carpet bombing. And that one is fresh, my dude.

TPM actually provides some useful components to isolate encryption outside of Ring 0, which is a trust win. But any technology must be weighted against its power to oppress.

Don't worry, Microsoft will immediately defend and indemnity those who actually matter so nothing will change, really. Bobby will get a golden parachute, and nobody will care he was in Epstein's rolodex.

But hey, Sony still gets Cod (and I know Microsoft will fuck them out of it the moment they can) so it's all good right?

The industry is consolidating and the quality of the product is sinking. A correction in the form of a crash is overdue. As a former PlayStation exec said: the industry is not sustainable.

...don't they have wireless emergency alerts?

The pussy train for conservatives has had to come to a screeching halt.

He's kissing ass for that VP position

This is great! The road is finally rising with all the alternatives and as a Tildes user, i'm excited to install this, and maybe improve my engagement there.

This is something we should have had a decade ago and knowing google it'll be dead in a month

Guilty.

Power mods. Let's hope all the fediverse instances stick to a max sub limit.

bro kiss

Back in the day on an old imageboard we used to call anonymous users "Chopped Liver"

As we saw with Reddit gifts, anything that could help develop an audience or good publicity is not destined to last forever.

So this confirms all the studies and adages of conservative voters being less intelligent, more subject to scams and fraud, and less accepting of social norms.

Can't engage with the site if they block me from engaging with it.

There's Matrix/Element and now Revolt

Did that fucknugget ruining Twitter cause EVERYONE to have the same hair brained idea?

What frightens me is that he is still very capable of becoming President.

Satisfactory with 752 hours. No mods, either. Most recently is Project Zomboid with ~123 hours.
