Post images you like and/or find meaningful to you.

Took a good picture? Post it.

Took a bad picture, but it’s of your cat? Post it anyway.

What exactly do you need from a Discord replacement?

There’s a LOT of options, with varying features so if you don’t need certain things it gets a lot easier to suggest what might work.

Americans tend to buy the most car they think they can afford.

Hell, Americans buy the most car they can finagle a loan for, independent of if they can or can’t actually afford it.

It wouldn’t be surprising to find that a good portion of Tesla buyers are stuck in the trap where they owe so much on it that there’s no way they could afford the hit to replace it, because they can barely make their payments now.

For real: I’m using a 38" ultra wide, and if you had told child me that a 38" monitor would be the smallest display in the house I’d have told you that you’re full of shit.

She works at Google, not Yandex.

Though I’m sure Google could manage something equally mysterious.

If the past few years have taught me ANYTHING, it’s that at least half the “gamers” are cheering the deportations on, so uh, yeah, anyway…

Not that I disagree, but putting it in the hands of a foundation that’s beholden to corporate money isn’t exactly going to be the solution to “eventually messing up stuff”.

Even if he did, how could you tell the difference between the holes dementia has made and the holes a worm would make?

While that’s true, “I’m sorry that you got upset at what I did” is in no way actually an apology or an admission that they might have been wrong, so…

Don’t let it connect to the wifi/internet?

I mean, sure, you have to do the SD card shuffle, but it’ll guarantee you don’t end up having to deal with this.

If you have a more advanced set of network hardware (which it doesn’t sound like you do) you could add a firewall rule to block traffic from the LAN IP of the printer, or for something like Unifi, simply block internet access entirely. But, even then, if you screw it up now or in the future, surprise software updates will happen.

And more fun, lots of laptops have really goofy routing. I’ve got one where the DP alt mode on the USB-C ports are on the dGPU, but the HDMI ports are on the iGPU. And the internal panel is on the iGPU unless you switch it to be on the dGPU because yay mux.

Why? I don’t know. Too much meth while laying the board out or something I guess.

Hexbear is the big instance of people who are so fucked they tend to get banned even from there.

No, no. They’re a group of posters so awful they got banned from Reddit.

And let’s be honest, you can be pretty much the worst person on earth and survive in your own little bubble on Reddit, but, for whatever reason, they couldn’t.

It’s both horrible discovery and a limited number of creators.

But, for discoverability, https://sepiasearch.org/ might help you find things to watch, since it’s the only good multi-server search I’ve seen. (And run by the peertube devs.)

I’m disappointed in that writer.

Better phrasing: Sega started as a rock’n’roll breath of fresh air that did what Nintendon’t.

Not really: if you’re astroturfing, you don’t do all your astroturfing from a single source because that makes it so obvious even a blind person could see it and sort it out.

You do it from all over the places, mixed in with as much real user traffic as you can, and then do it steadily and without being hugely bursty from a single location.

Humans are very good at pattern matching and recognition (which is why we’ve not all been eaten by tigers and leopards) and will absolutely spot the single source, or extremely high volume from a single source, or even just the looks-weird-should-investigate-more pattern you’d get from, for example, exactly what happened to cause this post.

TLDR: they’re doing this because they’re trying to evade humans and ML models by spreading the load around, making it not a single source, and also trying to mix it in with places that would also likely have substantial real human traffic because uh, that’s what you do if you’re hoping to not be caught.

Typically not by injecting toxic carcinogens into the ground to do so, like we do with fracking.

Also I’ve not heard of any strip mining activities that turn a town’s only water supply into something that’s flammable, but I perhaps missed that?

Or the ongoing incidents of child and adult cancer caused by this itty bitty little toxic waste issue.

In the US, the major source of natgas is now fracking.

And uh, fracking is about the most gross extraction method for anything you can dig out of the ground.
