Bobbinapples,

I refuse to buy cordless powertools. I know it's not exactly the same as built-in batteries, but In their short existence, I have already seen proprietary rechargeable batteries become discontinued (My mom wanted to get an extra battery for a handheld vacuum, couldn't find the battery by itself, so bought what she thought was the same model; nope, they changed the battery design, even though the rest of the new vacuum was the same as the old one)

Bobbinapples,

I am not aware of many devices that use swappable 18650's either. Off the top of my head the only ones i'm aware of are vape devices.

Bobbinapples,

In a past life I watched people do this with lumber. A con as old as big box stores return desks.

Bobbinapples,

The passing resemblance to cointelpro ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COINTELPRO ) had me suspicious and it still didn't click for me until then either.

Bobbinapples,

That article certainly confirms all of my suspicions about the kind of (crappy, only in it for himself) person stevie is.

Bobbinapples,

I'm waiting until the API changes actually take place to delete my account. I want it to be clear they are still bleeding users weeks from now.

The Reddit Blackout Is Breaking Reddit (www.wired.com)

“They’re shooting themselves in the foot,” Mir says. “The content of the users is what makes the platform worth visiting. These hosts kind of run into this confusion that their hosting is the reason people are going there, but it’s really for the other users on the medium.”

Bobbinapples,

They wouldn't be posting propaganda notices on new reddit's homepage

I want to know more about this, i haven't heard of this yet.
