And these are the people who stayed…
FWIW, when I see that, it’s usually when I hit back from going into a comment. Reloading the page usually fixes it.

That’s not entirely true- you can upload your own, but you can only seed to users that do have port forwarding. On many trackers, that initial seed is all going to seed boxes with an autograb script enabled anyway, and those do have port forwarding.
Thank you, I hadn’t seen that yet. Assuming it’s true, that’s going to make their claims very hard to prove. It might even get dismissed.
Assuming it’s something like hair, you can usually use a drain snake, small hook, or the dollar store has these things that work surprisingly well:
I also find that the Drano-like things do not all work the same. I like the 10 minute hair clog remover from Zep (available at Lowe’s or Home Depot) more than the rest. It’s quick and easy, but it’s nowhere near as good as the thing above.
The only reason a for-profit business does anything for free is because it’s somehow tied to a payday somewhere else.
A free initial contact is really just an unpaid sales pitch.
The simple fact that they are former employees is meaningless. This is especially true in California (i.e. where Twitter HQ is, and presumably most of these employees) where non-competes are nearly completely unenforceable. Twitter will have to specifically show that it’s about their internal trade secrets, and not just the general experience they brought from their time at Twitter.
But right now, it’s entirely Twitter doing the talking. We haven’t seen yet how Meta will respond. I predict there is a 0% chance that Threads gets shutdown any time soon.
If you read the actual letter, it seems to paint a slightly different picture. They vaguely order Meta to stop using twitters trade secrets (whatever that may be), and serve notice to preserve communications. That’s fairly normal. But then they have an entire tangent about scraping Twitter’s publicly available data.
This could get very, very complicated. A lot of mobile apps are nothing more than a slightly customized mobile web browser, complete with web bugs. Others are native code with raw API/etc calls. Some are a mixture. And all of that kinda misses the point of the data that people want when they see these reports.
Possibly. I’m not entirely sure how to interpret that part.
One plausible scenario is that they brought in a consultant, who said their data would be worth $XXXX on the open market. A common element of MBA thinking is that any potential profits are something you are entitled to, regardless of the consequences. It’s also pretty clear they don’t have a mature management team, or a viable path to realize those profits. But they had to stop someone else from getting it, so there was a rushed decision. I don’t quite know how it coincided with killing 3rd party apps, though, unless it was just more really incompetent management.
I think the main purpose of these (and other link modifiers) is to deny them the ad traffic
The nature of All is that it’s, well, all of what other users (on your instance) are discussing. Just like you could see when certain types of users were active on Reddit from r/All, or when a major event happened, so is the case here.
There are a few things you can do about it though - First, you can switch to your subscribed communities. You won’t see all of the randomness, but it should be limited to your areas of interest.
Second, you can block the major communities you want to avoid, most notably this one.
Third, and this is the hardest one, you can get a bunch of other, unrelated discussions started. That way, people aren’t discussing this. But I swear to God, if I see one more post about the fucking beans…
I suppose you could try another instance, or mass subscribing to new communities, but I suspect this is going to be the big topic for a while across the Lemmyverse.
I experienced the same thing! (Except my home instance is FMHY, not LW)
It is the same experience as trying to view NSFW subs on another instance that I’m not logged into. I already know there’s a filter that won’t show NSFW if you aren’t logged in, which explains those. I even checked, and didn’t see this as having anything marked NSFW.
I’m going to chalk it up as a Lemmy bug.
There is, and it’s not completely dead
Reddit isn’t just trying to balance the budget - they are specifically scrambling to make things work (or at least, look like they will work) for an IPO, which is a beast in and of itself.
This should speed up the admins’ search for replacements they keep promising!
I think most of that is the exception. From what I can see, Powerstack is a marketing name for their newer and “better” battery, and is completely compatible and replaceable with their standard 20V line. XR is a similar story. Since their “20V Max” is really 18v with a new coat of marketing (No, really), their lineup was already compatible. They just had to put a different connector on it. Atomic is a line of tools (smaller), and are also primarily the same 20v
As for the 12v, 60v, Flex, and whatever else - unless you need a very wide variety in your tool collection, you’ll probably just be using the standard 20v line. Everything is labeled as 20v Max, which works quite well for ensuring compatibility.
As for quality, I’m not an expert on the subject. There are certainly still plenty of fans out there, and it seems to be one of the better brands regardless of any complaints. It’s what I standardized on recently as a DIYer. But it may not be quite as professional-grade as it used to be.
Makita is also a good brand, and I wouldn’t object to that either.
Boost died for me at 7PM EDT on 6/30, along with the rest of Reddit. Apparently, Reddit was incompetent with disabling everything, so it (along with other 3rd party app) still worked for some people if you were not logged in.
I always get nervous when someone vaguely references their free speech. Aside from it being a poor argument against most censorship, it also doesn’t include any context. There is nothing in this post to suggest the removed comments were anything but spam and threats.
Now I do know a little bit about how Reddit mods operate, and I can fill in some gaps, but I have no reason to believe these were helpful or insightful comments that were just unpopular.
The numbers are highly skewed because of the launch. A number of users are being paid to create content during the launch. A lot of the users are just checking out the hype. Some will stay, many won’t.
The numbers won’t really be useful or comparable until the dust settles. I give it a month.
