That’s what happens when you hire Stanley Kubrick to stage your moon landing video. The guy’s such a perfectionist, he insisted on shooting on location.

Loved the movie, but found that the ending was the weakest part. I don’t mind the resolution we got, it’s just how we got that resolution that has some parts missing. How did the people suddenly go from fearing her to calling her a hero? Sure, she saved the city from getting blown up, but one act alone doesn’t easily undo a thousand years of prejudice. After all, it doesn’t seem like anyone knows the truth about what happened between Nimona and Gloreth. How did they clear Nimona’s name of the Director’s accusation? Who runs the kingdom now? Why didn’t that dudebro knight get his face punched in? The ending was fine, but they glossed over a lot of parts that would have made the ending make more sense.
Edit: Well, looks like the Lemmy spoiler code doesn’t work on Kbin.
And that, Musky, is why sites generally provide an API and don’t lock it behind prohibitive pricing. Because the alternative is to scrape your site, and that’s more resource intensive for the site in question.
Blink twice if the raccoon on your head is controlling you.
Considering that this is the most hated person on Reddit other than spez himself, no tears were shed.
It’s not going to have a direct material effect, but it’s going to affect perception. There are already people cautious about corporate influence on Linux, and a Linux distro getting closed like this is going to be seen negatively. While Fedora and RedHat are separate entities, they’re close enough for one’s perception to rub off on the other.
What’s old is new again. I actually still prefer IRC to Discord or Telegram, never could get into it.
The misuse of this meme is one of my biggest meme pet peeves. Have people forgotten that in that scene, his vision is clear when he’s not wearing glasses? So the meme should be the other way around.
Yeah, I’ve seen some people upset about these things and complain that it doesn’t stop the flow of traffic, and that in fact it may increase interest in Reddit. Some want the blackout to continue indefinitely. But that’s impossible since Reddit will just force the subs open and replace the mods. So the next best thing is malicious compliance. Sure, Reddit will still see traffic from people curious about what’s going on, but these meme-y protests is still rendering the site essentially unusable while still keeping to the letter of Reddit’s demands.
I assume they’re realistic enough to know that this really won’t go anywhere and that the whole point of the discussion is simply to make some noise.
Except if r/worldnews posted Onion articles, all they’ll be doing is predicting the future.
So should the opposite faction be called tractorie?
Yes, that’s what “following in the footsteps of r/pics” means.
r/art also held a poll. It’s over now and John Oliver won.
This is informative and unfortunate.
I do generally charge my phone at night, but I do it while awake and unplug it before I go to sleep. It’s increasingly rare these days, but I just don’t want to risk the potential fire hazard of leaving a phone plugged in.
Ah. So basically China’s Social Credit system, but for Reddit.
It does if you want to migrate your favorites and subscriptions.
