Asa backend dev, it should be a 503 error. I live in 503 land.

Or a docker container.

So, er, what does a poop emoji mean?

And that is the sheer absurdity: doom as a device driver. Sheer and unabashedly luncacy, because why the fuck not. I approve

Heretic

I am pretty sure that your goal qualifies as evil chaotic. Not because the game is evil, but because the platform is Emacs. I mean, everyone knows it’s Vim.

This should be non controversial. RH is complying with it’s obligations to those that it distributes to. Alma, Rocky, Oracle and Amazon have all built RHEL competitors based on RHEL. Red Hat shouldn’t be obligated to do the work for it’s commercial competitors. And let’s not delude ourselves that RH and IBM are not major contributors to the Linux eco-system upstream. The issue here is that competitors want to have patch for patch RHEL and the back ports from upstream for free.

I would my money on Prigozhin. Putin has a broken army and the Wagner’s are pissed. Russians on Russian fighting is not going to bode well, especially when one side is very angry.

Technically the truth. It’s a paramilitary coup.

That’s justification for a negligence claim. Staying that your sub meets or exceeds a standard and knowing the view port wasn’t certified to those depths is the very definition of negligence. And then knowing the vessel was only a single use and using multiple times seems like a really good claim on manslaughter. Rush is lucky he’s dead.

Yes, but then they would need to hire mature devs. I interviewed at Reddit a few years ago and the “staff” engineer was a smug 25 year old. Their engineering culture is one of elitism and a shocking lack of humility. IMO, the rot from the CEO goes all the way down. It wouldn’t surprise me if someone had your idea, but the organization is incapable of execution.

I am a waiting for the slander and libel suits to land. Seems like RIF and Apollo devs have a good case. It would be epic if Reddit had to pay them each $20m.

An NFT as your avatar? Wow, it’s dumber than I thought.

That sounds dreadful, and yet apropo. I would not want to see the results of said photo shoot, but it would trigger right wingers and Reddit.

And you used to be able to buy super battery packs too. You could get a pack that would power your phone for days.

If that’s the case, he wouldn’t be wrong. I mean, he should just do whatever he’s thinking and get it over with. The users and mods are pissed, all goodwill has been spent.

This is epic. Trolling level 10. Spez wanted to force them to reopen, so they did, but burned the subreddit. I can’t wait for r/gaming to be only about ping pong, or r/videos to be only cat videos.

You can not force a community. And Spez has unintentionally created a community, just one that hates him.

Ironically, if Reddit has been up front and said they were killing third party apps, and kept their mouths shut they would have faired better. For a stupid play like this, speaking only makes it worse. This is going to be taught in business school on how to kill a business.

I think point two is interesting, but only if the communities choose too. One of the interesting promises of federation is that you can have competing communities with different interests. I can completely see commerical interests hosting a server (e.g the NBA or NFL) that has strong brand identity as a place to interact with stars, and then the un-branded fan sites. IMO, the competition is what makes the Fediverse interesting, and seeing that play out is fascinating.

r/subredditdrama would be trending ever day. Any controversial subreddit would be subject to astroturfing campaigns. Could you imagine if a political party decided to over throw mods of r/politics or r/news just before an election?

The whole point of a Reddit it is a community that is fostered by the moderators and the voting system. Hostile take overs of a subreddit will result in toxicity and encourage heavy handed moderation, restricted membership and make the popular subreddit echo chambers.

The CEO is changing too much, too fast, and with reckless abandon. You can’t change your pricing model, your business model and your value prop in one go. The best analogy I can come up with that it’s like he’s remodeling the kitchen and decided that a wrecking ball through the front of the house is a good idea.
