Nobody in our country voted for that tone deaf asshole either. He was just “stepped in” as an interim after our prior catastrophe of a chancellor stepped down (Sebastian Kurz - He also made it to international media for his corruption).

Before representing our country as chancellor, this piece of shit was minister of the interior. - while being in this position he was just as useless as now. Words cannot describe how much I loathe this guy.

I wasn’t aware of that service. - Thanks, good tip!

This is morbidly fascinating. Also extremely good pictures.

e: While all of the photos are great, this one struck me in particular:

There’s only one “X” for me and its this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEZ8fqQDdj8

Prigozhin is like Russias “General Kurtz” from Apocalypse Now :O

Looks like a lot of work but the result speaks for itself. Beautifully done!

Building your own gaming machine was always the best option if you knew about new technologies, compatibilities, brands etc. The problem I see these days is that the market is really, really saturated in everything PC. Which makes the research necessary extensive and time consuming for people who are not exactly “on the pulse” when it comes to hardware.

So it also becomes a question of “do I want to spend the time to get exactly what I need for the cheapest possible price?” versus just checking some meta-sites that review prebuilt PCs and pick one that is rated good by the community instead.

How a 15€ shooter sits above Activisions workhorse MW2 (~70€). Haha. And deservedly so - BattleBit is a really GREAT shooter!

Til what an eggcorn is. Yeah, absolutely.

Right? I’d have talked to OpenAi and told them the situation. OpenAI can probably afford ANY api fee by now so that would’ve been the most logical first step.

Well whatever, reddit needs me more than I need reddit so I’ll stay here for now. I like it here :)

well that interpretation certainly works here as well :)

It would leave them open to potentially devastating legal consequences if an affected EU citizen can prove in court that reddit makes money of his content, which he deleted. Also the “right to be forgotten” as in the GDPR formulated would be violated.

IF reddit really goes that way, they’d have to anonymize at least the usernames. Which would make it extremely hard to prove that something is “your content” and not someone elses.

I think “reign” is like “rule”. - A king reigns over his people.

“Rein” is the thing that horse cart drivers use to control the horses. So the rope that goes from horses mouth to drivers hand. You can either “rein (in) the horses” for them to do something, or you can let them “free rein”, meaning they can run as they please.

Good summarization. And I am sure it WILL explode if they dont start paying serious mods serious money for something that was done FOR FREE by the community before. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.

Honestly not too surprising. But good luck moderating the bigger subs without the old volunteers.

Going ham huh? I’ll see myself out.

Reddit is absolutely, 100% certainly not going to step back on these change. They’ve made up their mind long ago.

But just for the hypothetical: I think they lost a LOT of trust with the two most essential parts of the community - users and mods. Also the company (or rather, its CEO) may have taken significant image damage due to the “AMA” spez did.

I think business will go on as usual, but the decline will be more and more noticable over time. It will go the way of Digg. Unless of course reddit decides to hire moderation themselves. But we all know they probably wont want do do that. The course seems set to selling the data they have already accumulated.
