Give me the outcome of The Good Place as well where you can choose oblivion after there’s nothing left to do.
San Junipero was one of the few “happy” episodes of Black Mirror but it didn’t ask the question of “where are we in 10,000 years?” like The Good Place considered.
Lemmy.ml then, a lot of overlap.
Literally so did the Nazis.
Yes, and they’re pronounced the same in the US.
Kilometer has the same stressed syllable as odometer in American English.
Easier just to distinguish pronunciation as -ometer vs -meter.
Just to add onto this good answer, you are really only expected to tip for sit-down restaurants with service and bars.
For takeout, cafes, fast food, etc., you don’t need to tip. A lot of places these have payment machines that just ask if you want to tip by default. You can safely hit “No tip” on these if you don’t want to.
Ostensibly it’s just to replace the tip jar for those who don’t use cash, but the prompt appearing every time you pay by card has convinced a lot of people that tipping is what you’re supposed to do in those situations, when in reality you have no obligation to.
Same here.
I’ve gotten in the habit of copying my comments before submitting them, just in case. Including this one.
I’m 11 years into using Sync.
My first year of college, the only smart device I had was an iPod Touch. After I found Reddit, I installed Alien Blue on the iPod as my first Reddit app experience.
A couple years later, I bought my first real smartphone, which ran Android. And I was so keen to try to find “the Alien Blue of Android” I tried probably half a dozen Reddit apps. It didn’t take me long to recognize Sync as the uncontested best of the lot, and I’ve been using it ever since.
Until now.
There are millions of people out there who just accept all this crap as normal. I just don’t know how people can feel so comfortable about being constantly bought and sold online.
Ads in general skeeve me out. In the early days (2005-ish?), while visiting a video game forum I used to frequent, my computer was infected with malware delivered by a malicious ad. I didn’t even interact with it—the page just loaded, acted erratically, and before I knew it, my system was completely locked down. My only recourse was a full wipe of that PC.
Since then, I’ve never trusted ads. And even now that some ads have gotten more “legitimate” (thanks to these five secrets advertisers don’t want you to know!), they still seem sketchy just knowing how much money goes into them. Do banner ads on a website even result in more sales? I don’t know, but obviously they must be conning someone out of their money because they pay so much out.
Likely doesn’t make a difference. At any time Reddit can put a banner on their site saying “We’ve updated our terms and conditions, ream more here” and almost always such changes specify that continued use of the site is your consent (but that you can delete your account at any time, not that that appears to even do anything now).
It’s almost like they never considered that moderators use the same third party apps as the rest of their users, either.
Though based on the leaked internal memo, it looks like Reddit doesn’t think very much of their users at all.
Jerboah seems okay, though I do miss Sync. Keep getting weird Java exception toasts here and there that I believe are causing my votes to not register/comments to not post, though.
13 year user here. Well, I only managed half as much karma as you, but that’s my plan as well.
Just gotta make sure to do it before the API change, or else the tools to wipe your comments will likely cease to function.
Most mod tools and bots rely on API access and are just as affected by this change as third-party Reddit clients.
After the outrage started, Reddit has stated that they will make exceptions for mod tools and accessibility apps, but it requires manual approval, and a number are likely to be declined in spite of it. Particularly when considering that a lot of moderators made use of mod tools which were contained within these third-party clients that are shutting down, and are likely not going to be spun off into separate tools.
Yeah I think Lemmy still has a lot of wrinkles to iron out before we can even say “close to”, but hey, everything’s gotta start somewhere. Here’s hoping.
