You nailed it. This is for the Andrew Tate stans of the internet.

They are measurably the most lonely people seeking a sense of community that is missing from their real lives. It makes them susceptible to radicalization, which is why they are so easily targeted with this kind of messaging of taking such immense pride in the depravity of inhumanness.

This project almost broke my hands because the twisted stitches on such a small gauge has a lot of tension. I also never really grokked the pattern in terms of the cabling, so I had to meticulously track each line of the pattern up until maybe the next to last repeat of the pattern.

If this helps, let me tell you where I first got tripped up in this pattern: this sock is worked like a front panel (shin side) and back panel (calf side), but worked in the round like a 3D printer. So when you first come to the end of the cabling motif, you've finished the shin panel; now repeat the same motif to finish the calf panel. When you've gone through all the rows of the motif, you'll have very clear borders separating the front from the back. The cabling does not circle the leg.

Hope that helps!

Not sure if the flash adds anything but here's a second photo of the pattern.

I like it too, but somehow kbinners got taken up, kbeans (ugh), and now this bird mascot's name is being thrown in the mix.

Okay, this helps me a lot. In essence, as someone using a 3PA, I represent 1 API, so for wildly successful 3PAs like Apollo, we're not talking 1000 API per minute, we're talking like 500k API per minute.

This is interesting also as it pertains to what you said about bots. When I used reddit for knitting and crochet, there was a bot that a community member had created that would reference a website that we all got patterns from, and then would generate a comment with a direct link to that pattern's page. In the lead up to the blackout, the bot's maintainer (not creator) was still in the dark about whether that bot would be shut down or not because reddit provided very little clarity when asked specifically about that bot. That bot was probably called up just a few dozen times per hour, so I imagine it would have been allowed to continue operating, whereas bots for AutoMods in subs with millions of subscribers were probably pulling huge numbers of API.

Thanks for chipping in!

I had no idea that was the history involved. This makes more sense now why maybe reddit has a vendetta against quality developers. haha

It's the tankies voting to sabotage our cool new icon.

Yeah, I commend you for avoiding plurality versus majority.

I was a fan of Kbinauts, but then the zeitgeist moved super fast once that bird logo got introduced.

Then voting went up for a name for the lil birdie, and surprisingly Kibby came out on top, but alongside Kebin and Bink. The poll for that should still be up over in m/redditmigration I think.

Now that I think about it, I don't see our name as netizens arising from the name of the mascot, just like how at reddit no one called themselves a derivative of "snoo."

If anything, someone found a way to harness the murdering towards the right recipients lol

Can someone give me some perspective on the 100 API per minute versus 10 API per minute in terms of me - a dirty f'ing casual - trying to use reddit via a 3rd party app?

I get that API is when my 3PA is talking to the reddit server, but is that happening for, say, every post that loads up on my infinite scroll? Or every time I open a post to read comments?

In other words, would my usage need to be as slow as "don't browse more than 10 posts per minute" to have stayed in the free lane?

Also adding to the pile of issues highlighted in this opinion piece:

• erosion of the wall between church and state in public school prayer through the demonstrable misrepresentation of the facts of the case

• inability for individual states to create gun control through a dogmatic adherence to original intent doctrine
