You are responsible for the rest on the exam, regardless of whether the professor was able to "find time" to talk about it during class or not:-).

"I can hear the innermost thoughts of plants" - yup, sounds crazy to me! (Therefore let's do it - make it happen!:-)

That is when Reddit starts selling Reddit Premium to not sell all your data, bc fuck all you all apparently, according to spez.

Edit: holy shit that may have already just started.

It's on spez's personal playground, the one where he steals all content and sells it like his own: https://www.reddit.com/r/olympics/comments/1eknsdq/zhou_yaqin_reaction_on_the_podium_was_priceless/.

Hehe, I've switched between at least three different Fediverse accounts since leaving Reddit, but okay sure if that's how they want to interact with the world...

Tbf it does point to the more fundamental differences between the platforms, with like anonymous shitposting on the Fediverse (which is like 90% Star Trek and Linux memes:-P) vs. tech or other topical blogging on Mastodon where their actual irl names mean something (e.g. I would be inclined to read something from Robert Reich, but Alex Jones not so much).

And the funny part is that, according to that article I linked in another comment in this thread, their followers are already leaving, now that Twitter has morphed into X (just like advertisers, hey-oh!). They aren't even necessary going elsewhere, so much as simply leaving, and waiting for something to solidify.

So, much like all the people on Reddit that self-report now as being shocked - shocked I tell you, shooketh! ⚡ - that the platform is feeding them crap that they don't want to see (but which the algorithm demands that they view - all hail The Algorithm, forever may it reign 😭), the time to be bold and jump somewhere else was when Musk took over and people could have made a coordinated exit strategy. Or maybe if enough people got (ahem 💵 "involved" 💰 i.e. 🤑 enough to affect the market) they could even have ousted him as CEO entirely and saved Twitter to be bought by someone else. Anyway, the second best time is now, before their followers never log back in to that advertisement-infested cesspool of human garbage again, in order to see their messages about where they have decided to jump ship too.

Like fascist governments all around the globe, WE the people gave these demons the power that they hold over us.
