How do we prove we're not robots? Fucking select the picture with traffic lights or buses, right? How was this allowed.

Damn, I wasn't aware of this aspect of electric vehicles, but that makes sense and is interesting. Thanks for posting, looks like I have some reading to do.

I've seen some people on Mastodon talking about how news organizations could just set up their own Mastodon instances, and only give accounts to their employed journalists. That way they could all repost each other's stuff but no one would have to put up with Twitter's policies. I think that's a pretty cool use case for the technology, and similar to what you're describing here.

That is a fucking great question coming from the people who are literally in charge of regulating these sorts of things.

When 3rd party apps are blocked on July 1st, Reddit is no longer going to support accessibility features that blind mods and users need. Reddit's owners don't seem to have considered how much work it's going to be to provide said features "in-house."

Maybe they meant "do not dump here."

Yeah, WikiTribune was originally a for-profit project unrelated to Wikipedia from a few years back. IIRC the idea was basically to avoid the issues with fake news by having users hire journalists directly... through the medium of the WikiTribune leadership... which is basically what Newspapers were. Not a bad idea I suppose, but it definitely flopped. Now I guess they're reusing the name for a seemingly unrelated microblogging service. Weird.

Yeah I'm not aware of any studies that link stimulant-based ADHD medication with abuse of street meth. But it's a pretty common meme amongst doctors for some reason.

You use terminal because you know what you are doing.

I use terminal because I want to feel like a hacker in a 90's movie.

We are not the same.

Make sure you play up that it failed, though.

From experience, if you interview for jobs as a successful freelancer, it may not go so well because they think you don't "need" the money.

I didn't start an LLC, but have told many employers that I did, and it's worked well. It is insane how people worship "small business owners" in this culture.

I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!

No seriously, .compact reddit on my phone and old.reddit with RES on my desktop were all I ever wanted. They haven't gotten rid of old reddit YET but I can see the proverbial writing on the wall.
