I am right now sitting on a Steelcase Series 1, and while it doesn’t have great lumbar support, it is far better than any shitty $150 “gaming” chair, and is right in your price range brand new.

I have submitted a GDPR request to remove this post which contains my personal information.

Ellen Pao.

That’s so reddit.

I was so confused for a moment.

While that’s not strictly a Guy Fawkes mask, holy shit does the non-blurred version get even stupider. It’s like the people who picked the image for the story thought, “Even we can’t put up something that stupid.”

I haven’t even gotten to the text of the story, because I was stopped in my tracks by the stupidest stock photo I have ever seen, wherein someone in full riot gear with an ultra-modern machine pistol is prepared to shoot someone at point blank range, when they’re already in handcuffs, which are, inexplicably, in front and not behind. And how cold is it in that basement that you’d be working while wearing a hoodie (with the hood up, of course) and a jacket zipped up over it?

Before they shut down the APIs, I deleted all my posts and edited all my comments.

Spez doesn’t get to profit from me anymore. And hopefully I’m poisoning the well.

Why is the default setting to enable remote administration?

“I know Deloreans, which have stainless steel panels, are prone to rust, how could I possibly have known that Cybertrucks, which have stainless steel panels, would also be prone to rust?”

Greed? How does Microsoft profit from not supporting twenty year old hardware?

Is your girlfriend Guy Fieri?

But isn’t Microsoft just so evil for making it so their operating system doesn’t function flawlessly on twenty year old hardware?

AM I BEING CONSTRAINED? OR AM I FREE TO GO?

Yeah that’s the tack I’ve heard, just buy a month. I decided to buy a year, because I have existed for fucking ever, and there are a good number of those data brokers that drag their feet longer than a month to remove your info.

Incogni is cheaper.

For everyone who only read the title, a couple of Russian TLDs were no longer available in DNS. That’s a far cry from “internet offline.”

Would it really matter? It’s just as easy to subscribe and then say/do whatever. Only accounts that have been subscribed for a period of time? Subscribe and wait. Have a certain post and/or comment reputation? It’s not terribly hard to speak to a specific audience and accomplish that. Make any of those extra parameters too severe, and you limit the community growth.

Crowdsourcing of ideas means that bad ideas are no worse than good ones, and in an evolutionary way, they’re probably better at replication, strength, retention - and when a core tenet of that “bad” idea is that you must actively reject the opposing good ideas, that’s how bad ideas overtake good ones.

What if I call the iPad a “really big iPhone”?

You can honestly start your own TLD for a lot less with any DNS server. That doesn’t mean anyone else will necessarily use it, but you can.
