  • ___Shamelessly stolen___ Rescued from that other site.

    You've done the right thing. It will live a much better life here.

  • I wonder if the owners of deddit, fb, tweetster, et al, might think it financially worthwhile to cause disruption in the fediverse, and even its ultimate failure.

  • Yes, watching the implosion. But there's nothing implosive about this move. Hence, 'don't sweat the small stuff.'

    They're not shooting themselves in the foot again. It's just an administrative function, moving on with what remains of their business, like paying their electric bill.

    And here's a friendly observation. Telling others what they should do comes across as grandiose.

  • Don't sweat the small stuff. It's dead. Let it go.

  • The discomboulator is that the changes could have been had without need of a scapegoat.

    It took a shocking amount of arrogance and contempt for the builders of that playground (the 'little people' who made this all possible) to so badly foul such a simple thing.

    And opening the mouth only to change feet.

    Extraordinary failure. One for the history books.

  • I volunteer admin my own public service gig elsewhere, >10 years x 365 days. It requires some diligence to try and prevent scammers and fraud - there's a bit more at stake than just memes. It don't pay much, but it's honest work.jpg

    I appreciate that people keep up the groups I follow just for amusement. And I'm definitely not looking to put those mods out of a job. I know it's work, and I appreciate those who do it.

    I've wondered since the grumbling started why people weren't establishing their subs elsewhere, even if just a place holder.

  • I have an ethical conundrum. There were a couple subs I liked. I didn't like spaz' off-putting move. But when I learned of deddit's treatment of a mod, I'd seen enough.

    I moved here and setup a landing place for the members of one sub to land. It was not 'my' sub. I didn't start or mod it. But I wanted it to continue. Not much has happened with it. And the founder, whom I DMed, hasn't come over afaik.

    Another sub I liked was still dark when I left, and can't find any indication of it restarting elsewhere.

    I don't want to step on toes or steal anybody's sub or the credit due. I also don't want those groups to die.

    What's The Right Thing to DO?

  • I left, deleted my account and any comments of value. The place is dead to me. It's incomprehensible why people are still there being butthurt about it. They haven't been kidnapped. There's no guy at the door with a gun who's suggesting they not leave.

    There's nothing new, no surprises. Abusive people, who treat others poorly (spoiler!), will abuse and treat people poorly. Why hang with that?

    It's like they're addicted to the free buffet. But the only thing being served lately is shit sandwiches.

    Well... bon apetit ya diehards.

  • A sucker's born every minute.

    "I'm sorry I hit you baby. I won't do it again. And this is a chance for us to reflect on why you deserved it."

    Okay!

  • OP's making anti-shitposts... Get him!

  • By pwning the three branches of government and, therefore, the regulatory environment.

  • Ignorance makes her confident. But one can't be so charitable about the company's fraud.

  • Of course they were spared. Would YOU target your virus at people you know to be armed with space lasers?

  • I don't see how the app could possibly function without access to your call logs and messages. /s

  • And what about $100?

  • I was admonished to be careful on a dirtbike as a child, had a fear reinforced in me. Meanwhile, this other kid was quite aggressive, and would piss me off when he'd fly by me on the track. In contrast with my parents cautions, his parents encouraged his style and he was a very highly ranked competitor in the state. He was WOT no matter where he was, turns, jumps, passing me. Absolutely fearless.

    He had a bad day at the races when he was about 10 years old, suffered a significant brain injury. And he hasn't been independent since.

  • Yeah! And you can't even run. Because it's watching you. Sitting right. beside. the mortar. Directing fire. Straight on top of you.

    I'd hate to see one of those things. No good could come of it.

  • I get that these aren't tech people. But there's a serious gap in protocol that seems to give them the ol' Whoosh.

    If I walked up on the street and asked to see somone's dB? Lol

    If a mutual acquaintance asked for your number? I'd call you with their number.

    So would these non-techies. But put them on a machine and they seem to lose their minds.

    Psst, want me to help you? Just give me your dB. I'll make it easy for ya.

    And they think that's okay.

  • Absolutely. Point being, the drone, regardless of type or size or payload, is a deadly threat.

    So, no. It's not a waste of a SAM to take it out.
