I was so many splinter-subs deep at the end, having jumped ship dozens of times for each sub I liked, as it got full of “regular folks”. Or more often, insufferable people and mods.
It always went something like:

Reddit is genuinely terrible now. Have you visited recently? All is removed, posts and comments default to sorting by best instead of hot (which mixes minutes-old posts with week-old posts), there’s an algorithmic For You feed, there are constant popups to log in or use the app…

And after all that, the content you’re looking at was probably posted by a bot.

@bethroots @pewterbaw Fair warning, I post a lot on the news too!

@neil

When I wert lad they made bedrooms with walls.

Then they moved that stuff into the cloud and discontinued the service.

Being cunning I set up my own Bedroom Wall Server.

Now I need age verification to use them.

We’re going to have to start blocking by default

Not sure if it did DM’s, but there’s about 1,000 Roan Cong accounts atm. They make a new one send 1-4 posts and make a new account, with a new domain after a few accounts.

Pretty sure there others too.

@Vivaldi Thank you so much, this is great!

@pewterbaw Maybe try @ai6yr who posts on a wide range of topics.

Haven't been feeling super hot the last couple days, so I decided to triage myself at the VA (basically walk in and they fit you in where they have an opening). I made a point of researching online if they were open today cause federal holiday. Their own website said all services and hours normal.

Nope.

Thank you, Trump and Musk, for gutting the agency so hard they can't even update their website. I'm always amazed how much Republicans support the troops in practice and not just lip service.

Hello, everyone! This is the third part of our mini-series dedicated to creating a sky shader to simulate day and night in Godot Engine. In the previous two parts, we finished programming the shader, and this time, we’ll look at how we can combine this effect with a real light source to make our scene look more realistic.

That's not correct @darth_hideout
I understood Turnabout Intruder

I don't think so @darth_hideout

Leeds folks, a couple of weeks ago I suggested a cycle path to join up Horsforth to Alwoodley using the verge of the Ring Road. It'd complete a northern ring that connects CS1 to ELOR. I've made a simple interactive map to show existing cycle lanes/routes (in blue) with potential routes (in red): https://strudel.org.uk/NLOR/ The red dots are where I've taken photos. There are a couple of bits I'm not sure about (from Spen Lane to Lawnswood Roundabout and from Meanwood Valley to King Lane)

@arstechnica I'm kinda in awe of how people seem to be okay to use AI coding agents in aviation, banking, security, military software and whatnot but not in gaming.

@paul I reckon it’s just too big a source of misinformation now. AI is regurgitating it to Apple’s users when they ask questions, and posting bullshit questions and bullshit answers, and new models learn from that. It’s “the death of the internet thanks to AI” playing out.

@2happy1sad (a) I don’t think Spotify is a good business. (b) I’m not arguing that it’s never a good idea to run in the red for a while building/scaling. It’s not that Anthropic is in the red, it’s how deep in the red.
