So, er, what does a poop emoji mean?

I am pretty sure that your goal qualifies as evil chaotic. Not because the game is evil, but because the platform is Emacs. I mean, everyone knows it's Vim.

I was just wondering if I should make an impulse buy for my Mach-E

Take an upvote, but I think the situation I'd very different from the XMPP and the office standards or even kerberos. In each of those cases, it was a standard.

For the XMPP case, XMPP use for Google was primary business users. The XMPP case ignores the rise of other, more convient, more engaged communication like Facebook Messenger, discord and free text messaging. For the open standard of OOXML, Microsoft's aim was to sell Office. And for Kerberos, the AD changed were driven by business reasons. Regular kerberos is insane to admin, and Microsoft made it easy; it doesnt help that Novell's eDitectiry failed.

With Federation, the story is different. The engagement isn't like XMPP of connecting to people you know, or the security reasons of AD or even the standards of OOXML. In a sense, Federation is more like DNS or a web server: it's just about connecting communities.

This comment is the one we should be talking about. We all lack empathy, at least politically and socially.

Plenty of people who have had children and raised them are against paying school taxes after their kids leave school. The number of times I have heard Grand parents talk about unfair it is that they have to pay taxes on schools is insane. Source: lived in a community where the average age was 72.

Most underrated comment

Meh, why be ashamed? Reddit was well liked until this bullshit started. I am only judging those that are still premium members.

That opinion peace helped me to understand what was different about this situation vs Twitter. The business model at Twitter is different. Twitter didn't require communities with tremendous user investment to create a community, and by not realizing community was the differentiating aspect of Reddit, they didn't understand how passionate people would be.

Sigh...I own an EV and I will tell you that my reasons for buying it are less environmental and more practical. Not having to go to a gas station (charge at home) or how I literally have way more power than I need or that it's just fun to drive. You can shit on EVs, but in all reality they are a superior car if you don't get hung up on the fuel. I want to be better about the environment, but honestly, my EV is hands down my all time favorite car (and it's not a Tesla). So before you mock em, go test drive a few.

+1 to the no porn rule. I seriously considered hosting my own instance, but balked at the liability especially in regards to porn. I'm no prude, but having adult material seems like a serious headache.

I stopped engaging with Reddit when meme-ification happened.Wheb it became all about the lolz abd short pithy responses, I started using it to find more interesting articles. Gone are the days wheb the average Redditor would read and make thoughtful contributions.
