I mean there's always gonna be some atrocity you're unaware of. The difference is in one place you Google it and find out about it, the other you Baidu it and get put on a list.

Based. I bet everyone at Peterson is glad as hell they don't have to move to the sweltering south

If this is real fuck you Nintendo, so bull shit for not just making it oled. There's a $50 difference right now between the regular and oled variant which could 100% just be worked into the new switch pricing. You just know they're releasing the oled model 1-3 years after launch so people buy again.

Yeah I'm confused by this too. Everyone I've talked to has just expressed concern in regards to who's running the military, the direction its internal politics are going, sexual assault issues. I've never met anyone who thinks it couldn't execute its mission properly. As a veteran, trust me people, there are some white-hot shit people at the tip of the spear and running all the way down it too. There's shit bags for sure but I'm pretty confident in it meeting most expectations.

Well, things work until they don't. Predictions can only get you so far. See: new coke, qwikster, onlyfans trying to ban porn. But yeah I'm sure they did a cost benefit and decided it was worth

Unlucky, didn't see this until after I clicked. The new default for posts about reddit here on Lemmy should be that any links are just screenshots or archived versions or something

Don't worry, once discord succeeds in killing every forum ever, you won't be able to find anything like this again!

I wonder what the future is gonna hold for famous people. There's gonna come a time when a rando dev can just press a button and a beautiful, funny, and any other-positive-quality-you-could-want person will be generated. This person will never commit a sex crime, will never say a racist remark, never do anything controversial. I imagine once that happens that's just kinda it for famous people who represent a brand.

This is what all mods should do. Their thanks for running a community unpaid for years on end is a middle finger for not letting reddit profit off of them. Users build, foster, and maintain subreddits and reddit swoops in and declares that it's all thanks to them. Mods who get demodded should wear that fact with pride when contrasted against the ones who capitulated with similar threats.

Burn baby burn. I have no illusions on how much we actually affected reddits bottom line but I can only hope that the power users from reddit will slowly leave the platform.
