I love IDLES, don’t know how they didn’t make the list. Never Fight a Man with a Perm was playing on my commute.

I work a day job in IT, have a side business doing IT, work an occasional shift at my buddy’s liquor store, and sell furniture on the side.

I’ll stop buying apple when I can get a multi-core arm machine that’s not made of scrapbin plastic from a traditional PC manufacturer. I have two M1 machines running Asahi Linux and they’re excellent computers.

Youtube has put me onto a lot of Australian stuff lately, such as Smoko (The Chats) and Hertz (Amyl and the Sniffers) as well as some more indie stuff like Wet Leg. I might just be old but these bands are all new to me and I love it.

From their statuspage:

“Reddit Failing to Load Identified - We’re aware of problems loading content and are working to resolve the issues as quickly as possible. Jun 12, 2023 - 07:58 PDT”

What there needs to be is concerted development focus on fixing these quality of life issues. Unfortunately, there was not much time allowed for this to happen seeing as it was about a week or two from the announcement to the start of the blackout. These things take time and development time isn’t always available.

I love mine, it just works. I have Linux, macOS, and Windows devices printing to mine flawlessly.

Bringing the r/place concept here would be cool, perhaps different instances could all do something similar of their own? Federated r/place sounds fun. :^)

So my understanding is Reddit, or specifically u/spez, tried to claim that the Apollo developer was blackmailing them over the entire API pricing debacle. The Apollo developer posted the audio and transcript of the call with Reddit showing they were lying. Now they’ve claimed his App is poorly developed and making wasteful amounts of API calls- so now he’s posted a large swath of code online to disprove that also.

tl;dr reddit CEO caught in a couple lies

Make sense. Deleting a post probably just toggles a ‘deleted’ flag in the database and doesn’t touch the post contents. Writing over the comment, however, would actually change the data. Then you can proceed to delete it.

Such a great instance name

I just use the email metaphor and it usually gives people a rough idea how it works. It seems more complicated than it is.

Same, and it’s an open standard. We need to take the web back to open platforms and standards.
