  • Karma bots making low effort shitposts because our dumb monkey brains will upvote it. it happened before but you ignored it because you cared enough about the organic engagement on the community and mods did enough to try to stop that behavior

    Now that Reddit removed mods that actually did their jobs and you’re one of us, it’s all you can think about









  • Hosting your own email is a bad idea. Hosting OTHER PEOPLE’S email is a REALLY BAD idea. Self-hosting mail on a vanity domain is a good exercise to learn how SMTP, DNS, IMAP and other protocols interact.

    If you don’t like Google, Apple, or Microsoft then sign them up with Proton or another hosted provider. You don’t want to be the reason someone lost income because they missed out on a critical email from a client or their job application was blocked because it was sent from a host with poor reputation.

    I agree with you mostly. And censoring swears from media aimed at children, doesn’t prevent kids from wanting to experiment with the taboo. But I’d rather have children’s media model good behavior, and while swearing isn’t always profane or disrespectful, it often is. And being able to differentiate the context is a learned social skill that kids won’t master until that kind of content is appropriate.

    This last quote really has nothing to do with my argument but I just like it. “Profanity is the linguistic crutch of inarticulate fuckheads”. I want to teach my children to articulate themselves well and save the profane for when it makes the most impact.
