Thanks for reminding me of this. For those not aware, in 2016 Spez secretly edited users’ reddit comments. It’s fascinating that he survived as CEO after that given that it shows an absolutely breathtaking failure of judgment and self-control.
Most people I know hate it, but I absolutely love the feeling of a fly crawling on my arms or legs. It gives me this wonderful comfortable tingling sensation and I can’t get enough of it.
An interesting read, no doubt, but I still disagree with
Is this something we actually have to worry about?
Maybe.
The “threat” here would entail no negative emotions, no human (or other) suffering, just… nothing. Plus, it sounds like if the universe were indeed unstable/meta-stable, there’s nothing we could change about it anyway. So of all the things I can worry about, I feel this deserves the least amount of worry.
I get almost all literature for my papers from libgen and scihub. I even have access to a lot or journals through my uni’s VPN, but it’s just much simpler and quicker to use the open seas.
My justification is that a) scientific journal publishers are evil and a scourge on humankind, and b) on average, I only need like 1% of the info in such literature, so I would never buy it anyway, which means that me pirating it doesn’t affect sales in any way.
I have no idea what this is about but I love the meme template.
Yes. (I’m a protestant Christian.)
I mean I live in Berlin…
I sing in an amateur choir led by a professional singer, and his voice is the purest, warmest, cleanest sound you can imagine. I melt every time he sings a solo or demonstrates part of a song to us.
Of the ones I visit at least somewhat regularly, Twitter has always seemed the worst for me. Every thread (at least on political topics) is just a stream of toxicity and misinformation.
Welcome to the club! I left reddit with the first blackout and haven’t used it since. It’s been easier than I rhought so I don’t plan on ever returning.
I use this userscript with Tampermonkey for a layout that’s closer to old.reddit. (Script not mine.)
I mean you could become famous for doing the first AMA on lemmy…
How much does that cost?
