a_crappy_pirate,

yeh looks like it. i can't see any comments on that post either

a_crappy_pirate,

we knew we had the power position when lemmy's world stood it's ground and didn't explode on the day before yesterday.

a_crappy_pirate,

ahhh WOO HOO i gave my subreddit the two-weeks-notice that i'm quitting today. fuck that feels better, knowing that the endless toil is ending.

i'm gonna have a celebration and get baked

a_crappy_pirate,

and now it's 5am and i am THOROUGHLY stoned. rest well, everyone! see you when the sky's a different colour

a_crappy_pirate,

tell them to write a sentence that contains the words they're, there, and their, and use all three of them in a contextually accurate manner.

a_crappy_pirate,

that was just beautiful, thank you

What are your favorite browser extensions?

Ublock Origin is an obvious one, but I also can't stand not having Foxy Gestures anymore. It adds customizable mouse gestures, so you can set it up to have easy swipes to go back a page, reload a page, close a tab, etc, and it feels wonderful and smooth to use compared to just using the traditional buttons to do everything....

a_crappy_pirate,

web of trust, or mywot. puts a little sign next to every link telling you if they're trustworthy. fucken game changer. botsight is a great one for twitter. and buzzkill, well, kills buzzfeed

a_crappy_pirate,

when has the narrative ever changed away from that attitude? look at how mutahar has acted - knowing that we're doing the right thing but still throwing as much contempt into everything as he possibly can. the only times that people side with mods is when we're taking enormous damage so that general users don't cop it instead, or if there's a power-mad despot who should never have control of anything larger than a toy train

a_crappy_pirate,

so what's the full specs of the machine? would building one of them and then running it at home from an NBN connection be viable, or would it lag to hell more than lemmy's world about 12 hours ago?

btw when it's time for money, i'll put one hand up and the other into my pocket. this is the sort of thing that i would be happy to fund.

a_crappy_pirate,

this is true

a_crappy_pirate,

aww, thank you for your concern, but i'm not being troubled by the insomnia in the slightest, and i do prioritise myself immediately after my son because i need to be fit enough to be responsible for him

a_crappy_pirate,

at least it got towed out of the environment

a_crappy_pirate,

oh, so they managed to get it off the concrete pillar that i had wrapped it around? good for them!

a_crappy_pirate,

lmao hell no, a dedicated munter never returns to the scene of the crime because getting locked up gets in the way of getting drunk and stealing some rich arsehole's tinny

a_crappy_pirate,

that sounds fine by me. i think i might be running around like a decapitated chicken for the rest of the month seeing what needs to be done on which instance and all that, and i'm pretty sure Gigs will keep me busy once more people land in here

community requests - live music (various)

the specific one that i'd be interested in modding would be "doofs" but there's also "festivals" and "clubs" and "gigs" because the four groups are, believe-it-or-not, quite diverse in tastes and would not be interested in going to each others' parties. also those groups are frikkin HUGE in reality, basically entire age cohorts....

a_crappy_pirate,

yes, they would be focused on the various live music scenes that they represent. i think live events would be more important for the entertainment industry than genre-focused communities which could easily be covered in other instances. being more activity-based than interest, i believe that they would benefit from a uniquely australian position

a_crappy_pirate,

yeh i suppose that's a good starting point and i'd let someone know if it was getting too clogged. i doubt that is going to happen for a few weeks at the very least tho, and by that stage i will very likely be in a position to be able to build an instance of my own

a_crappy_pirate,

and done. let's party!

a_crappy_pirate,

nah, crypto is smoke-and-mirrors and he knows that this isn't, so he's run away

a_crappy_pirate,

the thing that did happen with digg that didn't happen with heaps of other websites was a negatively received UI change. people hated it.

now, people deliberately don't use the reddit mobile app because it fucking sucks, and closing down the alternatives is a negative UI change ...

r/childfree mod help please

I'm hoping a mod from r/childfree sees this. I used the master list of childfree doctors to find my own doctor to get a vasectomy and it went well. We are in need of a doctor from that list but we can't access the list due to the reddit blackout. I'm really hoping and praying either a mod is on here and can help or someone...

a_crappy_pirate,

have you tried internet archive or removeddit?
