I didn't dig deep for the best prices, but found 9mm 100 counts on some bulk ammo website selling for $31.50. So back of the napkin math says $315,000. Realistically probably a good bit less if you're buying large quantities, but in any case, it's a lot of money's worth just for the bullets.

I like how that shortage wasn't caused by Obama, but instead a bunch of psycho Republicans' overreactions to a black democrat making it into office.

Yeah big grain of salt with that promise.

One thing that stands out to me about old.reddit is that it allows you to browse NSFW subs without being signed in. I feel like that absolutely will not jive with their IPO, so something there is gonna change one way or another. Could be as simple as no longer allowing any non logged in users from browsing NSFW or more drastic like killing NSFW altogether or killing old.reddit.

Yeah to be honest I couldn't recall whether it worked well or at all on new reddit because I never use new reddit. I do remember the RES devs basically saying they were all but walking away from the project some time last year and that any updates going forward were gonna be bare minimum.

I bet old.reddit is gonna be axed fairly soon. All signs point that way.

• Killing the free API access and thereby putting most 3rd party apps out of commission
• The expensive rebrand from pentagram
• Reddit all but officially announcing they're going for the IPO finally (plans leaked to the press)
• Unpopular redesign of the new reddit layout which I assume will push a group of folks back to old.reddit
• ...

Also wouldn't surprise me if RES is killed off in the not too distant future.

Edit: wow that new redesign they just pushed is indeed pretty bad

This fits in with my theory that a minimum of 20% of the population is a waste of space.

100% this. Until FPTP voting is done away with a vote for a liberal 3rd party is basically a vote for republicans. CGP Grey did a really easy to understand video about it.

Free one. I found it to be a lot worse than Chat GPT’s free tier. I didn’t test it mega in depth but I threw some of the same “rewrite this copy but make it better in <this> way” sort of tasks I’ve used GPT for and it turned around ridiculously bad writing.

I then asked it if it thought that what it had produced was good writing and comically it told me that it was bad and full of cliches and that I should avoid using it. I’m not making that up.

I tried Gemini and it did some of the worst writing I’ve seen in some time. YMMV

Yeah I don’t know why it’s a surprise to anyone that NFT losers are now morphing into AI losers. It’s a bunch of talentless hacks trying to get rich quick through the lowest possible input of effort. Bonus points that they get to annoy a lot of people in the process.

Yep same here.

I have a hard time making time for reading, so I want that time to count. I don't let myself get caught up in a sunk cost fallacy and will just move onto another book.
