Reddit refuge

Direct message

I know what I wouldn’t do.

I wouldn’t give a human woman and dolphin man LSD in a shallow pool meant to look like an apartment while having the human give the dolphin hand jobs.

The article isn’t about Americans being upset, just noticing a trend in the market.

The wheat market in general has had better growing and shipping conditions now than two years ago, including within China’s internal market. If China is growing more wheat internally and can get a decent deal on Russian wheat due to Russian sanctions, it makes sense that China wouldn’t need to buy as much from other markets.

It was rather common when Peppa Pig was big where American children would get slightly British accents because they would pick it up from the show.

No. If anything, Lemmy makes it easier than Reddit.

Reddit requires some form of web scraping. All Lemmy requires us making a server and connecting to other instances to get access to the server data.

To the point where Target could figure out when someone was pregnant based on what they purchased.

If the influx of new members from outside the instance became a disruption, I expect that defederation would be the first option to address it. That has already been used on Lemmy several times as some instances have become a detriment to others.

What would be an inciting incident for an Eternal September here?

The closest equivalence in the Fediverse is Threads, but it feels like Meta has done a decent job keeping up its walled garden combined with preliminary defederation of Threads from many smaller servers. I don’t know why a major company would want to use a federated entity to compete against Reddit.

I don’t get why he’d do that. That’s a nearly 3 hour commute each way, so about 5-6 hours in the air each day.

Add to that, a charter jet company quotes the price for that flight at ~$18,000 each way. Maybe reduce the cost of that flight in half, but the yearly bill for transportation alone is going to be in the range $25,000,000+ per year. No CEO is that valuable.
