Those traffic signs can be placed for bikes, and paint on a road is not made specifically for cars. With that in mind, the paint is clearly intended for bikes here.

Also, why would you need a “cars prohibited” on a bike road at every visible interval? Why would you need bollards? Are you worried that you’re going to accidentally drive down a bike road? Are the large bikes painted onto the obviously-narrowed lanes not obvious enough?

A seriously weird comment.

Y’know, I read that entire thread, and it really doesn’t come across as you’re representing it.

The mods are spitting rage over there. They’re outright insulting every aspect of reddit. I feel like focusing on the idea that because they made a post there they must still be active users is a stretch and unfair.

Of course, we know too many people still use the site. But it’s hard for me to get on board with a blanket “fuck the mods” based on that thread alone.

Quiche in a pan. Nothing to see here.

There is no set of raw data that cannot be laundered into a new system.

They removed the messages because they wanted to.

No! I’m just trying to see the community with beautiful shots & light-hearted facts for now while I still get my bearings with Lemmy.

Any photos I’ve personally taken I mark with [oc], like the fairyfly stuff. I’ll make it more clear in the future that I didn’t take these.

“It just works (with limited compatibility)”

“It just works”

Fair enough, I suppose we’ll see soon enough. And it may or may not be extremely cathartic. :D

But that’s the thing. She isn’t taking the L on this. That’s my point. She seems to just be chillin’, doing fuck all. Everyone knows it’s Musk running it.

This isn’t a case where he needed to bring in a fall guy CEO for a difficult business choice. This is a case where he brought in a new CEO to literally save the corporation, and she’s doing nothing and nobody is blaming her. It’s surreal.

Nobody is talking about it, but does that advertising exec that Musk hired for CEO take a massive hit to her career for any of this?

It seems surreal to have a ghost CEO who isn’t responsible for anything such a large company does. But that’s exactly what’s happening here.

Describing the various ways in which you mitigated the intrusiveness of reddit’s awards is not exactly corroborating your argument that the awards were fine. I’m also struggling to see the symbolic value of a badge that indicates you paid the administrators. The award system did not build upon the original sorting mechanism of upvotes in any meaningful way.

I know the timing lends itself to dogpiling, but honestly? Good for them. Throughout the fog, reddit made a solid choice - awards and coins were absolutely fucking stupid. I had posted regularly on reddit since 2011 or so. The coin shit distracted from the original sorting system - upvotes/downvotes.

Of course, hindsight belies that even that algorithm was bullshit the entire time. Alas, fuck reddit. Good riddance.

It’s the latter.

Emotionally oxymoronic?

It pains me to defend a corpo, but calling Google unreliable for their “fling shit and see what sticks” methodology for developing new products is inaccurate. Google/Alphabet is actually one of the most reliable corpos in the tech sphere, relatively-speaking, if you analyze their core products throughout the years.

Yes, it does feel like Google retires projects faster than they instantiate them. But that’s by design. The core product (selling advertising on SERPs/YouTube/AdWords/etc) is about as reliable as it gets, and that’s where they get their money.

Obligatory “fuck corporations.”

Oh my God. This is awesome.

“We need to tighten the purse strings!!1” quickly became “open the coffers!” as soon as they hit a speed bump.

Seriously epic. With the amount of vote manipulation going on over there, this will be a complete and utter failure. I guarantee it will be pulled in a month or two.
