Trebach,

Here it's "barking up the wrong tree"

Trebach,

I think it's possible through contempt of court.

Trebach,

Which radically shifted the balance in his favor when in court. Virginia is a "duty to retreat" state and having the other guy behind him meant he was surrounded.

Trebach,

The people who work for those who call just doing what you're paid for "quiet quitting" should show them what quiet quitting really is by going to lunch one day and never coming back.

Trebach,

Only USB C ports.

Trebach,

Because if they shut it all down, none of their members get paid. This way, the car companies are still paying employees to make parts, they have to pay more to move parts around, and may eventually have to pay for storage for parts that can't be assembled into cars.

Damage is indeed the goal but they're balancing the amount of damage they do to the car companies against the damage they do to their own members.

Trebach,

He needs to be arrested, convicted, and permanently disqualified from serving in law enforcement.

Trebach,

The best analogy I can think of is a swimming pool.

It used to have people to treat the pool, skim it, add new water to replace the water lost from evaporation, regulate the chemicals, and try to keep people from pissing in the pool. It was cheap and half decent so people still wanted to visit.

Since Elon bought it, he's sacked everyone who performed any upkeep to the pool and he's removed the filters. Now the pool smells terrible, the water has changed color, the water level has dropped substantially, animals are living in it, and the pumps that recirculate water are close to failing entirely. He's also built a tall fence around it and raised the price of admission.

It's a total hellhole to the point that the government is close to taking it away and filling it with soil because it's a health hazard.

Trebach,

Lawyers who cited fake cases invented by ChatGPT must pay - The Register (www.theregister.com)

Judge Kevin Castel on Thursday issued an opinion and order on sanctions that found Peter LoDuca, Steven A. Schwartz, and the law firm of Levidow, Levidow & Oberman P.C. had “abandoned their responsibilities when they submitted non-existent judicial opinions with fake quotes and citations created by the artificial intelligence...

Trebach,

They still can be. The state bar has to decide on that.

Trebach,

I am looking for a new instance because my admin is on the fence.

Trebach,

They did with the last one. That's why there's so much distrust about it.

Trebach,

He laughed and then tweeted some more source material for them to run with. He's loving this.

Trebach,

Text from post:

Greetings, fellow vacuum enthusiasts and members of r/WellThatSucks! Today, we have an incredible tale to share with you, one that will shed light on the origins of our subreddit and the reason behind our new rule changes. So gather 'round and prepare to embark on a whimsical journey through the story of Mr. Wells.

The Legend of Mr. Wells, the Vacuum Whisperer

Picture this: in a small, picturesque town named Suckville, nestled deep in the heart of a state called Cleanylvania, there lived a man named Mr. Wells. Now, Mr. Wells was no ordinary citizen. He had a knack for selling vacuum cleaners like no one else in the land.

With his charisma, knowledge, and passion for suction power, Mr. Wells was a force to be reckoned with in the vacuum cleaner industry. He could convince even the most skeptical customers that they absolutely needed the latest model of vacuum cleaner to keep their homes pristine. But little did he know that his life was about to take a fateful turn.

The Birth of "Well, That Sucks!"

One fateful day, as Mr. Wells was demonstrating a cutting-edge vacuum cleaner to a potential customer, disaster struck. The vacuum malfunctioned, spewing dust and debris all over the room. Mr. Wells, with a wry smile on his face, muttered the now-legendary phrase, "Well, that sucks!" Little did he realize that this seemingly mundane moment would change his life forever.

Inspired by this comedic mishap, Mr. Wells set out on a quest to create a community where people could share their own vacuum cleaner woes and mishaps. Thus, the subreddit r/WellThatSucks was born. It became a safe haven for people to commiserate, laugh, and find solace in the shared struggles of dealing with vacuum cleaners.

Rule Changes - Embracing Our Roots

With the rich history of Mr. Wells and the origins of r/WellThatSucks in mind, we've decided to make some exciting rule changes that will take our subreddit back to its vacuum-centric roots.

Rule 1: All Posts Must Be About Vacuum Cleaners

Effective immediately, we are refocusing our subreddit exclusively on the topic of vacuum cleaners. From stories of triumph over dirt and dust to unfortunate vacuuming accidents, we want to see and hear it all. Let's transform r/WellThatSucks into the ultimate hub for vacuum cleaner enthusiasts and those who appreciate the trials and tribulations of keeping their spaces clean.

Rule 2: All Comments Must Be "Wellthatsucks"

To pay homage to the iconic phrase that sparked our subreddit's creation, we're introducing a fun twist to our comment section. Starting now, every comment you make on r/WellThatSucks must consist solely of the phrase "Wellthatsucks." Let this phrase be the language that unites us, showcasing our solidarity in the face of vacuum cleaner challenges.

We believe that these rule changes will not only honor the legacy of Mr. Wells but also create a unique and engaging community experience that embraces the humor and frustration inherent in vacuum cleaner mishaps.

Join Us in the Vacuum Cleaner Revolution!

We hope you'll join us on this whimsical journey through the vacuum cleaner-filled world of r/WellThatSucks. Share your stories, photos, videos, and questions about all things vacuum cleaner-related. And remember, whether you're sharing your experiences, offering advice, or simply reacting to a post, the phrase "Wellthatsucks" will be our language of choice.

Trebach,

Where's OSHA? They should be all over this too!

Trebach,

Change "random(0)" to "random(time(0))" so the videos are less easily removed by a bot. time(0) is the number of seconds from January 1, 1970 at midnight, so the random seed keeps changing. It's still be black and white noise but not the same noise as anyone else.

Trebach,
  1. it might be illegal.

Sounds like an existential risk to the server to federate with them unless they tighten things up then. @ernest is beholden to both the laws of where his server is hosted and where he lives, which I believe are Germany and Poland. If he violates either, there goes the instance and/or him.

Trebach,

There's no "may" about it. People are reporting that their posts and comments are being restored already.

Trebach,

It really doesn't. Right to be forgotten from the Irish Data Protection Commission.

Trebach,

Some of the big subreddits have moderators that are admins, so they wouldn't go dark.

Trebach,

Their valuation by Fidelity (they're still private so this is a guess at what it's worth) already dropped by 41%.

Trebach,

The difference is that this time, they've managed to anger a large part of every demographic. Last time, it was a certain type of person and the remainder just said "don't slam the door on your way out".

Trebach,

How dare someone be held accountable for their actions!
