Will that be before or after Jared brings peace to the Middle East?

Will it get more visibility if I just let stuff die before working on know timebombs???

Frankly, yes. Solving an artificial crisis will get you way further in your career than preventing the crisis from having happened in the first place.

If you have any specific hobbies / fandoms / communities you're interested in, you could see if there are instances specific to those interests you could migrate your account to. The local feed and local hashtags are sometimes way more interesting if you're on an instance you jive with.

And although scientists who visit the continent to study its life and demise have a clear place here, many sightseers bring a whiff of “last-chance tourism”—a desire to see a place before it’s gone, even if that means helping hasten its disappearance. Perversely, the climate change that imperils Antarctica is making the continent easier to visit; melting sea ice has extended the cruising season.

I hate it here.

Here's what Jack said about Elon around the time of the Twitter acquisition:

"Elon is the singular solution I trust... I trust his mission to extend the light of consciousness"

This is my approach, and for those who don't know, you can use those line numbers that come back from history to rerun the command. Like if your output is something like this:

$ history | grep tmp
  501  ls /tmp
  502  history | grep tmp

You can run !501 and it will just re-run ls /tmp

Some of the people celebrating this have the notion that it will primarily help white kids. I suspect these people will be in for a rude awakening.

rather than push back.

Elon Musk owns Twitter. Every single time a person tweets some kind of "push back," it's just more activity on the platform that Elon Musk owns.

Question for you: Would you say all the pushback has been working? Because it seems like every comment out of Elon Musk's mouth is worse.

A couple shitheads in this thread. 😂

Reminder that you can click on a person's username and then block them pretty easily!

The truth is, most people will stay on Reddit, at least in the short and medium terms. But with each migration wave, there is a group that will stick around and make things just a little bit more active and interesting, and make it that much more appealing for the next wave.

I predict the next wave is when Reddit inevitably announces the shutdown of old.reddit. Now there will be a more viable alternative for that migration wave, and so on, until we hit critical mass.

That's the hope, anyway.

Because of course he did. It's like he's choosing to do the worst possible thing at every single step.

Used to work at a large tech company (think FAANG). It was advertised as a very dog-friendly place, so people would bring in their dogs, even if they weren't behaved well. There was an "incident" involving one of my coworkers. (That is a nice way of saying another employee's poorly trained dog bit them.)

Just another reason WFH was so much better.
