To date I've seen no logic that shows how any of reddit/spezs actions will actually increase profit.

Making a wild claim about how much 3rd party apps "cost them", is not the same as actually seeing revenue once those 3rd party apps are closed.

As most people have been saying, the majority of 3rd party app users are the more advanced technical savvy ones.

There may be SOME percentage of the 3rd party app users who transition, but if the 3rd party traffic is as trivially small as Reddit has claimed, not sure how that will overnight magically transform them into being profitable.

I've never seen an Ad on reddit with use of old.reddit.com , RES, and adblockers. I was a primary user of Apollo, and I certainly won't be using the reddit mobile app. I deleted the app off my phone once the writing is on the wall (rip the bandaid off now and detox vs in 9 days), my phone reported my usage is down 19% this week, so that is a plus.

Absent any business plan on how those actions will actually drive profit, everything they've done has had sole effect of alienating their power user, mods, etc. and I don't see how that helps profit.

This is something I would also like to find alternative to.

When I was younger, watching post apocalyptic shows and movies made me think/fantasize what I would do to survive in such situations (and usually rate myself pretty well in being able to survive).

Now, I'm much more "F** that S**" and would take a quick painless death over long drawn out misery.

In the event of a fire, "opening" the window is not necessarily a function of if the window is MEANT to be opened ... but CAN it be opened. Eg: throwing a chair through it, or firefighters breaking window from outside, etc.

I would construe your belief to be summarized by "all life has value and should be protected/valued".

The missing context is that your argument seek to protect the baby's life BEFORE birth , but after ... generally speaking the (R)/pro-life stance is pretty weak on social safety net, should the child have adequate (free!) health care, nutrition, etc.

Does that life "deserve" these things when they are only an infant? How about when they are 5-10 ... or 10-20 , or ANY age?

Passing laws to force women to give birth, but then systematically strip and reduce the social safety nets available seems highly context-dependent, and weakens greatly the belief that you "value life"

Republicans have been trying to hold Democrats to a higher standard for 40 years, all the while playing low ball ... it has been a GREAT strategy for them that is nearing end game (courts stacked, gerrymandering, control of state houses, etc)

The "other side" has ZERO capacity/will/desire to ACTUALLY engage in meaningful dialog , but sole goal is to "win" no matter what the cost.

There is no logical appeal that can sway the state-level propaganda and brainwashing that billions have been spent on over the last 40 years.

Don't know if it is true or not, or how affects claim ... but he claims

Looking at the authors listed contributions to that site, he specifically appears to have a distinct bias and railing very specifically on something near and dear to him.

7 articles about kids/scool/covid in last year, and one "asking the question" if vaccine is causing a dangerous heart condition in young men.

Have you looked at the actual report and not the anti-vax site summation of the report?

>. The 21% lower incidence in schools that required mask use among students was not statistically significant compared with schools where mask use was optional.

I'm not sure how 21% lower is considered "not statistically significant", in trying to suppress the spread, ANYTHING > 0% is helpful. Full stop.

Other stand out qualifiers from same report

>This finding might be attributed to higher effectiveness of masks among adults, who are at higher risk for SARS-CoV-2 infection but might also result from differences in mask-wearing behavior among students in schools with optional requirements. Mask use requirements were limited in this sample;

>The findings in this report are subject to at least four limitations.

> * First, many COVID-19 cases were self-reported by staff members and parents or guardians, and prevention strategies reported by administrators or nurses might not reflect day-to-day activities or represent all school classrooms, and *did not include an assessment of compliance* (e.g., mask use).

>* Second, the study had limited power to detect lower incidence for potentially effective, but less frequently implemented strategies, such as air filtration and purification systems; only 16 schools reported implementing this ventilation improvement.

> * Third, the response rate was low (11.6%), and some participating schools had missing information about ventilation improvements. However, incidence per 500 students was similar between participating (3.08 cases) and nonparticipating (2.90 cases) schools, suggesting any systematic bias might be low.

>* Finally, the data from this cross-sectional study cannot be used to infer causal relationships.

Basically was relying on self reporting. If a student contracted and was asymptomatic, not shown here, etc.

Meeker....? 4 people died. You are insane if you can look at the footage of that riot and equate it with "meeker" ... do you mean "they weren't black" ?

They didn't "silence" him because his brand of politics. Their stated reason for banning him from their platform was literally " due to the risk of further incitement of violence."

Their TOS have specific "Glorification of Violence policy", which aims to prevent the glorification of violence that could inspire others to replicate violent acts and determined that they were highly likely to encourage and inspire people to replicate.

Further, the claim that Twitter "Silenced" the President of the United States, a man who literally has a press room in his house, and could have a room full of reporters convened at any hour of the day to speak to. He could issue any statement from official whitehouse channels and it would instantly be disseminated across every news outlet around the world.

He chose not do those things, because he is a coward. The quintessential Keyboard Warrior/troll who likes to rile up people safe from any counter argument.

>Although the FBI agents told me I could leave whenever I wanted, when the door closed and they started questioning me, it certainly didn’t feel that way.

I know easy to say in hindsight and safely behind keyboard , but you need to call them on that at the very first instance. Before any other words have left their mouth.

You realistically may NOT be "free to leave"; and if they demonstrate that by physically barring you from the door you need to repeatedly ask them if you are free to leave or being detained. Make sure the "lie" is obvious.

At that point, it is even more of a cue to shut your damn mouth.

There is something inbetween 0% and 100% mask use.

Other cultures and countries have adopted mask fairly common mask usage and their children are not suffering. If anything there children are scoring much better in academics then most us states. There are more nuances then that.

Mask when crammed together in public transit? Mask when walking around crowded stores?

You are talking in absolutes, there is something inbetween 0% mask use, and 100% mask use.

Exactly what harm does wearing a mask cause and exactly who is acknowledging that???

Did you object when Twitter banned accounts belonging to ISIS or Al Queda?

As someone who uses a computer professionally and for fun, upwards of 12+ hrs a day for 20+ years, investing in good quality tools of your trade are worth it.

Mechanical Keyboards are nice obviously for the tactile difference and impact on typing speed and sensitivity, but for me the game changer was switching to a split keyboard for the ergonomics. I have always had shoulder pain, and tightness in my triceps. No matter how much I worked on ergonomics .. mouse position, height, etc. I have very broad shoulders/chest, so putting my hands on the keyboard always bowed my chest in and rotated both shoulders slightly forward.

I use the UltimateHackingKeyboard (UHK) now for over a year, and my shoulder and arm pain have all but disappeared. The UHK comes with a relatively short 3-4 inch cable to connect the two halves, and I found that was even to close together. I've since replace with a 12 inch cable and each half of the keyboard sits directly in front of the corresponding shoulder. This lets my arms, pecs,triceps, and back muscles all be in a relaxed position.

I would love to see the original 5-10 day graph that you could click to single day (and shown as a graph). Currently if you click on their weekly graph, it presents the hourly for a day as a table. WTF would they remove functionality???

Aren't some of those examples of some form of money laundering though?

Where is ATMFD.DLL ?

I am not seeing that in c:\windows\system32\ATMFD.DLL in multiple different windows10 machines I've checked.

The client is just an electron app (ie a very thin wrapper around a webpage). One of the more glaring examples is unable to monitor inactivity and set away status correctly.

I believe mattermost actually ships w/ gitlab included , or you can host your own seperate/existing gitlab installation.

I am using it currently with freeipa with zero issues.

Slightly bothersome, but you can use gitlab as a SSO provider for mattermost, and gitlab can be easily (free) integrated with LDAP.

How would you do that for the INPUT table (not a VM)? Just: > iptables -t raw -I INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --tcp-flags FIN,SYN,RST,ACK SYN -m tcpmss ! --mss 640:65535 -j DROP

??

here [1] gives example of ... is your just inverting/negating the DROP rule ?

>iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcpmss --mss 1:500 -j DROP

>I am also incredibly tired of people banging the climate change drum every time there is a weather anomaly (or even a marginally notable event). In a dynamical system "anomalies" are normal.

linked paper (first sentence)

>We develop a theoretical approach to quantify the effect of long-term trends on the expected number of extremes in generic time series, using analytical solutions and Monte Carlo simulations

"weather anomaly/marginally notable event" signified by the "expected number of extremes"

In this paper, focused on the extreme heat wave in Moscow and linked to other anomolies in recent news https://www.pnas.org/content/108/44/17905#ref-2

The google scholar link/search seems broken, but I remember reading this when it came out in 2011 and covered a wide range of global heat waves in disparate parts of countries, extreme drought, extreme flooding, wild fires, etc.

No one single instance of an extreme can be used to pinpoint "climate change" , but the absurd statistical deviation from the norm over the last 10 yrs or so is notable and clearly present.

But sure, lets play devil's advocate.

Can an extension like tampermonkey block/highjack events from a page?
