Well, don't want to sound like a dick or nothin', but uhh... says on your chart - you fucked up.

Yeah, it's not like the kids are just showing up at the school. There's still a registration process, part of which includes providing the school with documentation that your kid has their shots.

Now, is their an increase in waivers? I could see that maybe being an argument, in that if you don't have "papers" you might be less likely to seek medical care, especially preventative care.

I reported a bunch of spam-link bots, porn-bots posting CSAM-adjacent stuff, and a slew of stuff that was very obviously and blatantly in violation of Reddit ToS.

All the links/content remained and my account got suspended for "abusing the report function". Considering the content I reported, it's a safe guess that Reddit admin and moderation teams benefit from having such material on the site. Not sure how, or why. But their actions seem to indicate something.

Then you look at the controversies Reddit has had... that one dude's suicide, Ghislaine Maxwell holding a powermod position on front-page subs, the powermod controversy wherein a dozen or so mods had thousands of subreddits under their control.

There's also been a huge attitude shift. While most of it seems the same, there's a very strong anti-American presence now that seems to make sure they fit that sentiment into every thread whether it's justified, related, or completely out of place.

The Reddit algorithms or whatever also seem to love pushing certain topics to the point of stripping it of any/all meaning and turning into propaganda.

Misleading title; SMM's "final" level creator came right out and said it was a trolling joke they let go a little too far. And also acknowledged the person who completed the non-troll "final" SMM level.

Flapping about, feeling morally superior... did you even try to search for an answer or did you just want to virtue signal? Take a look at RIsc, or Arm... or w/e the Chinese just released.

Eh, Im not even an open-source enthusiast. I just have low tolerance for people so full of themselves.

Nah, I'd rather just not even consume the media. Especially considering video is mostly entertainment media anyways; anything actually useful hidden behind one of those stupid faces, I'll just find an alternative source.

Any of those punchable "react face" thumbnails. Dont care what the video is about, if it's got one of those stupid faces on it, straight to the fuckin' gulag!

<shrug>

Hacking because it's ownership. Do what you want with the things that you own. Piracy because fuck 'em. That's what happens when you make everything digital - it becomes much, much easier to acquire for free.

These browser wars are funny. It's not like you have a real choice anyways. You get either some sort of Chrome, with it's various problems. Or you get some sort of Firefox... which has it's own host of issues. The rest of the competition is so far behind that it'd take a miracle for them to enter the mainstream.

Shilling for any particular browser is pathetic.

"Boohoo, people used my publicly available source to do their own thing and now I'm mad and want to get paid".

That's the gist of the article. Dev got butthurt that his project didn't take off and blames "forking".

No.

Stoners and pharma-bros; who knew that'd be a functional combo.

Based on recent experiences in the medical system, AI replacements will probably be an improvement.

I'd hazard a guess and say it all stems from advancements in tech. There was a need to get the most out of something because of limited resources. Now that everyone's got some fairly serious hardware (yes, even the cheap shit), there's rarely that urge to optimize.

Rather than optimize each new technology as it comes along and gets adopted, it seems as though the mantra is "fuck it, add it to the pile". And it snowballs. As developers feel the need to optimize less, the lessons get passed down to the next generation, and so on.

So we're left with apps/end-user stuff that appear to have been on the opposite of a diet.

Just a reminder that Spez can go fuck himself.

Regardless of what country "controls" it, Discord is bad for many other reasons as well.

Unless they're implying that Chinese software will fail and bow down to "western software", I'm not seeing a link either.

The porting has probably already been done, as sideloading apps, while difficult, was still possible. It'd make sense to have something waiting in the wings, so to speak. So it's doubtful iOS development has just started.
