Heheh I’m ddossing them right now. Unfortunately the computer I’m doing it on is having a few connection issues

Cool, yeah I will definitely be trying it out thanks.

Yeah, since about 2016 it has started to get really bad though. I remember when I would be looking for a solution to a computer related issue, all the top results were super useful Tom’s Hardware and AnandTech forum posts. But of course nobody does SEO for forum posts because they’re just trying to help people not make money, so instead now all of the probably AI written crap is in the top results which half the time is only barely related to what I searched

I still am using Google and I hate how useless it has become since SEO started to become a thing in the last 5 or 10 years. Maybe I should try Kagi. Does it have location specific search results

A 70gb log file?? Am I misunderstanding something or wouldn’t that be hundreds of millions of lines

I mean it kind of ends up being a Skinner box anyway just because of the loop of scrolling, seeing a post, looking at it and repeating. But I agree nobody is actively trying to trap you in one.

I agreed with your first comment, but now I think you may in fact be getting old.

This would be so fucking annoying, I don’t use reddit day to day anymore but it’s still a useful research tool when I see results from it on Google. I don’t hate their search feature quite as much as some but I still don’t want to use it most of the time.

This seems so dumb for them to do, I feel like having their content listed on search engines is s major advantage they have over Facebook et al.

It’s mostly because people consume most content via apps and the web on smart phones now that have screens that are anywhere from 4.5" - 6.5" in size, and sadly more complex logos just don’t look that good when they’re squished into an area that’s a fraction of the total screen size. Where as in the past people might see a Pringles ad or anything related to Pringles on the TV, in a news paper, on a billboard etc which have way more space so the details are visible.

It is pretty unfortunate though, it’s the same reason the Firefox logo (and like everything else lol) was made minimalistic. I miss the old Firefox logo, I didn’t use Firefox in 2005-2009 but that one is definitely my favourite, the 2009-2013 one is nice too though which is when I first started using FF I think. Compared to today’s logo even the 2013-2017 one is great though

I looked into it briefly after hearing this news and saw people talking about Godot. It’s for 2D and 3D multi-platform games and you can use C#, C++ and others. Sounds pretty cool

Wow that is crazy that it runs Linux and is less than $3, that guy would put the executives from the scene in American Psycho to shame with that business card.

What I had in mind was a program with a GUI that had text, some images and you can click through the pages and maybe do something else. I suppose you could pull off something similar to what you linked with a compact arduino-type device, some kind of flat 5v battery and maybe an e-paper display that you can print scrolling text to and maybe a little graphic. I suppose not very similar to what you linked, but would be cool in its own right

Console.WriteLine(“Happy Birthday!”);

It would be quicker to list what’s right with him
