I dunno, don’t ask me, this is not a family thing, it’s just for me.
The thing is, these services may have a lot of content but most of that content doesn’t suit my taste.
It’s the exact same thing as music streaming services. Apple Music may have 90M songs in their library, that doesn’t mean I listen to all of it. What it does mean is that it’s very likely that they will have something that appeals to me in their catalog, in fact with 90M songs they will have enough for me to constantly find cool new music.
It just means I have a large catalog to choose from, not that I have to watch it all.

Ik vind ze HILARSCH! Het is letterlijk oplossingen verkopen voor problemen die niet bestaan.
Lang niet alle producten zijn onzin producten, ook al lijkt het op het eerste gezicht wel zo. Er zitten heel veel producten bij die oorspronkelijk bedoelt zijn voor mensen met een beperking. Omdat dat nu eenmaal niet zo'n grote markt is, proberen ze via teleshopping nog wat extra omzet te halen.
Ik heb even gezocht op 'slechtste tell sell producten' en hier zo wat voorbeelden:
Rotato express Onzinnig zo'n schil apparaat, maar niet als je b.v. maar 1 hand hebt.
Idem voor de Better Bagger om je plastic zakjes open te houden. Onzinnig voor jou en mij misschien, maar kan heel praktisch zijn voor iemand met een fysieke beperking.
Another update and possibly a solution for some case where posts were not properly deleted. Seems I jumped the gun on this and the restores haven't been intentional - at least not in this particular case....
That's debatable. Sure. my account doesn't actually contain my name and address, but it contains almost 14 years of posts and comments. Through the years I've probably let slip enough small pieces of information about myself that a motivated person would be able to identify me. This would still make it identifiable information.
I'm 25 and I don't have a drivers license. I mean, I've never really felt the need to go and get one. Public transport is usually the fastest option where I live, and it takes a lot less responsibility to use it....
My main mode of transportation is by bike (I’m Dutch so that’s not surprising). For most trips a bicycle is much faster than a car. I only use my car if need to go a long distance or if I need to transport something too big to transport by bike. I only need to fill up my car with gas once or twice a year.
I own a. car, but it’s a tiny car (Mitsubishi Colt CZ3) so it’s in a very low tax bracket, I also have maximum no-claim discount on my insurance and this model car is very reliable so maintenance is minimal. It’s probably a little bit more expensive than a membership in a car sharing service but it has the advantage of always being available when needed.
I apologize if this has already been covered, but I’ve seen a lot of people talking about a need for a kbin app. While I agree that a native app would be nice to have eventually, I figured that quite a few people probably aren’t aware of how web apps work. I don’t use Android, so I have no idea if there is an equivalent...
This feature has been there since iOS 1.0. Originally this was the way Apple envisioned how ‘apps’ on iPhone were going to work. Only with iOS 2.0 did Apple add the app store and support for native apps. And the rest is history.
I dunno. Google is just driven by greed, they are bad but at least they are predictably bad. Facebook feels more like they are genuinely evil, like they are actively trying to make the world worse.
I don't think he will step down on his own. However, Reddit has a board and shareholders. If they feel he's a big enough threat to Reddit's value and future then he's out. The way forward is to put a spotlight on how unstable he is and how incompetently he has been running Reddit. He is a liability to Reddit, not an asset, and if this is made visible to the right people then there is a chance the situation may be salvaged.

What streaming services do you pay for?
Obviously the answers here might be a bit lower than other places…

Reddit's response about the actions they took against the subreddits (note: r/mildly interesting DID NOT encourage nsfw content and their suspensions and removal have been revoked by a diff admin)
Wat vind jij van TellSell/TommyTeleshopping e.d.
Eerlijk gezegd kan ik best wel genieten van deze reclames. Ze weten altijd oplossingen te verkopen voor problemen die vrijwel niet bestaan....

OC Updated: Reddit is quietly restoring deleted AND overwritten posts and comments (mstdn.games)
Another update and possibly a solution for some case where posts were not properly deleted. Seems I jumped the gun on this and the restores haven't been intentional - at least not in this particular case....
What do you all use for password management?
I'm using KeePass currently, since I don't really want to use anything publicly hosted. But I was curious to see what other people have been using!
Why do people prefer cars over public transport?
I'm 25 and I don't have a drivers license. I mean, I've never really felt the need to go and get one. Public transport is usually the fastest option where I live, and it takes a lot less responsibility to use it....

Will Reddit ever cave in?
Exactly as the title says, do you guys think Reddit will buckle and at least be more reasonable or maybe even reverse their current decisions?...
