They provide a functionary service for discord servers to have URL redirects pointed at themselves for invites. So less average users and more power users/ servers owners are taking the hit here.

At first glance that’s what it looks like, but it’s good that your comment is the top for clarity.

I felt the same after removing my account of 7 years, it’s a smaller community here but at least we’re starting fresh

There’s definitely a lot of nuance involved. For instance my service provider charges more for electricity than the public charge stations do (seriously fuck PG&E and every other monopolistic service provider), so I actually save money by not charging at home. It’s still absolutely cheaper than filling up on gas though, especially when I can find a spot where I don’t have to pay (like my work.)

This is true but also old news from what I remember they took him off that page a long time ago. Reddit has been heading toward it’s inevitable demise ever since Aaron passed. Glad I finally left for good.

The technology definitely still needs to be worked on, as it is, but I trust autopilot more than I trust the average commuter I have to deal with. And I deal with a lot.

Do people go around looking for Swastikas in stuff? Even if I was a conspiracy theorist, an X is still an X. Especially when it’s not even a symmetrical X, you’re really pulling at strings I think.

The hypocrisy is real

I’m starting to think Spez is a masochist

Coming from the professional/enterprise side of things, docks have been a PITA for a few years. Especially thanks to Apple Silicon and their entirely different set of protocols and standards we now have a hard time finding any reliable docks on the market. For a period of time the only serious considerations required the use of DisplayLink software (including the dock I currently run from Startech) but they all have periodic and random issues. There are some decent options on the market now, mainly from Kingston, but they still don’t easily support 3+ displays and we aren’t comfortable enough to roll them out to the whole company until Kingston handles some current issues. Peripheral hubs are the bane of any laptop-only workforce.

For deniers, it getting hotter will never work. There’s an argument about the world being in a long cycle between hot eras & ice ages and temperature records don’t mean much when accurate records only go back one or two hundred years.

We always keep an eye out for Switch games for this exact reason. Our favorites from there are Animal Crossing and Luigi’s Mansion.

Typical average consumer does not care as long as they get to keep using the product. That’s likely the majority of Apple users, it’ll take a replacement (like this one) getting popular enough for them to notice and try it, otherwise on Reddit they’ll stay till death.

Yeah I just found out about this project/the fediverse, been looking for several weeks for the best replacement to Reddit and this is by far the most promising. Also, as a self-hosting enthusiast, I’m liking this place more and more by the minute. With any luck increased visibility will continue to push activity & content. Power to the people.
