I’m sure there will be ways around it. Mods can automod-delete every comment, change the rules of the sub to only allow posts of nonsense, or nit moderate at all.

The main problem is that protests don’t succeed at reddit because people like moderating for free for some reason. Strangely Reddit has more leverage over mods than mods have over reddit.

yeah, the only problem is that this results in the best talent leaving, you’re stuck with people who have nowhere else to go. it’s one of those short-term profits kinda things, which is why Wall St loves it so much.

I tried switching to Linux many years ago (forgot what distro). It was hell.

I don’t remember the specifics anymore, but I remember encountering issues almost every step of the way. Driver support, not being able to find the right buttons, etc. Searching for fixes usually led me down a rabbit hole of “oh cool this user on this forum said in another thread that I just need to install Gobbledegook… But what is it and how do I install it?” and of course a bunch of things require CLI which I’m not fantastic at. Unfortunately I gave up after a week.

Compared to that, Windows really “just works”. I have had my share of frustrations, but it’s usually with stuff that’s comparatively an edge case when compared to the problems I had with Linux. I don’t like that I’m giving money/data to a megacorp, but the price of that is convenience. I don’t churn my own butter, I don’t build my own car, I don’t want to think too much about how my OS works under the hood.

“Women are the best, folks. Many people say that I hate women but I really don’t. Trust me when I say I love women’s rights. I love their right to dress sexy, I love their right to wear bikinis.”

If you get a super disabled parking tag, you can push away cars with disabled tags from disabled parking lots and use it yourself

This just means they’re a struggling company who needs to cut headcount and want to do it without paying severance

“It’s close. You can’t change Democrats’ minds no matter what. They’ve got a one-track mind, and that’s it,” he said.

Bridy called Trump a “working class guy like us.”

Am I reading The Onion or what?!

Tipping culture is broken. We should end the actual practice of tipping and bake tips into the actual prices of stuff.

“during whatever that was” 😂😂😂

They are killing it with their sass

Pretty sure youtube is revenue generating on its own now. Youtube doesn’t work as a loss leader because it’s so different from all other products.

at this rate, in 20 years some asshole capitalist will figure out how to monetize air as a subscription service and we’ll all be living in a true dystopia

More government intervention in markets, because that’s what Republicans stand f- oh wait, er…

Hunting and precision shooting is different. Not to mention air powered guns are very different from gunpowder based firearms.

Look, I’m not the right person you should be arguing this with - there isn’t anything else I can say to convince you, except to say that the international world of shooting has accepted that corrective glasses don’t confer an unfair advantage in competition. If you’re really interested, find your local gun club, see if they have any air pistol events, try it out, ask the club director about the rules.

Not a church service, but I attended a church wedding.

Pastor gave a sermon as is tradition during a church wedding. Every minute or so, he somehow managed to work in “and since you are in a place of God, you should not disrespect the bride and groom or our worshippers by using your phones”.

Bitch, I’m here to support my friend who’s getting married, not your church or your worshippers. I know for a fact that my friend chose to get married in the church because it’s cheaper, not because she’s super religious. Also I’m agnostic and haven’t read the Bible, but I’m pretty sure it doesn’t say “thou shalt not use mobile phones in churches”.

I very pointedly had my phone out for his entire sermon out of spite

Anyone who cared would already be off Twitter.

Don’t forget that weird sofa dude was born as James Donald Bowman, and JD Vance is his preferred name.

Keep that in mind when he attacks people with preferred names and deadnames trans folks.

I know what you said intuitively sounds like it makes sense, but I’d encourage you to try a shooting sport in person if you’re really interested in the subject.

The best endorsement this poor guy can get is “he’s not that important anyway” 😂😂 Old Weirdo accidentally gave his running mate the sickest burn of them all lol

The point is that there’s nothing further to see beyond a tiny solid black dot.

These are air pistols which shoot pellets propelled by compressed air, not your usual guns. They make a moderately loud pop, but nothing like gunpowder - you can stand behind someone firing and have a normal conversation.

That said the guy is wearing earplugs - more for concentration and to block out crowd noise than anything
