The rich at this rate
That last article at the bottom mentioning Osama and Saddam, I believe we call that "dramatic irony"
When Musk gets kicked out of art school, we'd better be ready
Yeah, they make Link Amps
Typically people will prefer the option that gives them a $50 water bill over a $200 one.
We had tried this in SC in expanding one of our sites from one to three. It did not go terribly well.
I'm guessing this is just going to be an on-demand version of NASA TV? Which is still cool, it's one of the only places I've seen that you can actually hear about real science just flipping through channels (looking at you "Science" channel)

This one is so reposted in my Star Trek groups that they ban you if you post it. Just a heads up if you're just now getting into Star Trek stuff...
If you're trying to find work if the remote gig fails, good friggin luck
Gotta have a place to leave lists of their IRC servers
Shut up and take my gold.
Wait.
One. One nuke could potentially disrupt it...but it's not really advised for a few reasons:
- If the conditions are still there that built up the storm, you've basically just nuked some wet air - if the pressure gradient remains and the waters are still warm, it very much could simply reform immediately
- Dumping large amounts of energy into an active system might just turn it a different direction, unpredictably; you might steer a storm right into Miami that was just going to hit some empty marshes
- Dumping large amounts of radioactive materials into a storm heading towards you might just end up making a giant somewhat radioactive hurricane, which is not great
- Puerto Rico does not appreciate you dropping nukes just offshore
The nice things about the Federated universe is that, yes, you can bulk create user accounts on your own instance - and that server can then be defederated by other servers when it becomes obvious that it's going to create problems.
It's not a perfect fix and as this post demonstrated, is only really effective after a problem has been identified. At least in terms of vote manipulation from across servers, it could act if it, say, detects that 99% of new upvotes are coming from a server created yesterday with 1 post, it could at least flag it for a human to review.
Thanks for joining me today! I'm here at the Reddit corporate parking lot, spot 269 (nice!), and being assisted today by Victoria all by myself because friends only tie down your ambitions.
Founded in 1978 as a men's discount shoe store on the west side of Philadelphia (born and raised), Reddit has, despite our best efforts, experienced an unprecedented explosion in popularity in the past decade. As of this morning, we are now home to over 16.5 million subscribers, of which a good 11% are associated with human beings, creating over 13 original posts each and every week!
As a business, our primary goal has been maintaining this platform at the expense of our users. As a result, we recently made the decision to acquire one of our upcoming competitors, Lemmy. This sale finalized as of Sunday, July 2nd, for a price that will not be disclosed because our VCs might be reading this.
Effectively immediately, we have enacted a few new featifits (a benefit and a feature combined) that will hopefully pay for the new sous chef will benefeat the Lemmy community. These include:
- A newly revamped federation system that will allow Reddit posts to be viewed on Lemmy. This will be limited to one randomly selected subreddits every month, as chosen by myself, and I've been pretty much into cat girls this year, so they'll probably be cat girl-related
- A unique new post sorting algorithm that compliments the above, boosting all posts that do, possibly may, or will feature cat girls after I have edited them
- 500 Spezbux that can be redeemed for Speztokens at any point
- An unshakable sense of dread about the future course of technology
- Full length ads for Carl Jr's that will be sent directly to your inbox each hour and can be viewed for additional Spezgild
- New scents
And much much more! Also, as is tradition for this AMA, we will not be answering any questions at this time, but please, feel free to waste your time and ask anyway!
