The good parts of Reddit came from Aaron Swartz. Everything since then has been these guys trying to squeeze as much money out as possible (remember Reddit Coins?).

I owe much of my career to trying to set up Linux From Scratch two decades ago. While it's a much better experience installing Linux nowadays, there's a lot to be said for the experience spending your weekend debugging a system will give you.

Seen the video - it looks like he has a panic attack (probably because his boss is standing over him saying how dangerous it is), but they said he overdosed from touching it / potentially inhaling it and "nearly died".

He's mad that female service members stationed where abortion is illegal, are able to apply for leave / reimbursement for travel to another state to get an abortion.

I lost interest in ford when they killed the Fiesta/Focus.

are you trying to say "exempted"?

Calcifer is the fire demon from Howl's Moving Castle - I'd guess it's a reference to that?

They're great work laptops, as long as you treat them as basically disposable. If I have a problem, just turn it into IT and grab another, pull down the repos and I'm off. Wouldn't buy one with my own money, though.

They do make colour laser printers - but in the past 5 years, I've needed to print in colour maybe 3 times, and I just took it to the copy shop where it'd be better quality than I can do at home anyway.

Almost all the printing I do is either stuff to sign like contracts or boarding passes / tickets, and those are moving digital more and more.

"Unskilled" always seems like a slur - there's a fair amount of skill that goes into loading trucks properly and efficiently, same as any job.

They moved to a system where it would just auto-sale you the title if you kept it too long after the due date, which people were furious about when they showed up with a title that was due back a month ago. Netflix really ate their lunch though, Blockbuster online was too little too late.

Meta's Twitter clone. The smart thing they did was convert over Instagram accounts, so there's a ton of semi-famous people on already. It's got a ton of attention in the past two days, just for being Twitter sans Elon.
