It also feels like their insistence is doing nothing but hurting them. The average consumer who doesn’t know the difference between a local account and a Microsoft account won’t know or care about MS doing this.

But the users who do have a preference and do want a local account are just going to be irritated at it and give them bad press. They’ll eventually figure out how to make a local account anyway and it may be the push they need to migrate off of Windows.

Oh, I didn’t even think about that. Definitely makes sense.

In a Korean car too which is funny.

What does the BODG stand for?

It really feels like drug users’ demand for drugs that don’t kill them would create a market for artisanal drugs, like with the alcohol industry.

If I had any interest in hard drugs, I would be terrified to use them now. I know we’re dealing with addicts who aren’t making good decisions, but aren’t there wealthy coke fiends? How can anyone snort lines at a party if they don’t know if it has all this lethal shit in it?

You can also play with it to try and get closer to correct. I had problems with getting an Excel macro working and getting unattended-updates working on my pihole. GPT was wrong at first, but got me partly there and I could massage the question and Google and get closer to the right answer. Without it, I wouldn’t have been able to get any of it, especially with the macro.

That is what is frustrating. He doesn’t really mean what you “see”. He means go with your gut/surface level feelings and understanding. If you “see” something that goes against what you see or what you feel without any specialized knowledge on the subject, go with your priors.

Did you get a browser error when trying this? It might be because you left the www in the URL. I had to remove that and replace it with old, and it works. The rest of the link structure is the same on both old and new reddit. I even tried it from a VPN just to be sure it wasn’t seeing my logged in cookies, and in a private browsing window where RES isn’t allowed to run. Worked fine.

Private Internet Access works for me. Just tested logged out in an incognito mode tab.

The proliferation of anime and Internet porn has mortally wounded familial relationships.

Interesting. I’ll have to test it when I get home. I’m always signed in and I use RES so could be some other factors causing it to not be a problem for me.

Old Reddit works for me, but I am logged into an account.

That is basically what they did. There are a decent amount of third party apps around that work. I personally use Narwhal.

The further we get from the whole third party app debacle, the more I think this was just a way to kill the most popular apps. The ones that people said made reddit worth using. The ones that got shouted out in Apple keynotes.

Old Reddit works for me. Does it just not work in general for you, or does it not work when not logged into an account?

Interesting. I was all ready to ask how having a malicious DHCP server would matter if VPNs also use DHCP to give a client a VPN IP, but I didn’t know DHCP could do more than just hand out IPs.

The things you listed are not only staples, but also pretty basic and essentially the foods when trying to eat on a budget. What about beef, chicken, eggs, etc?

Being an idiot in that situation is true, but in your example is also true that the item he was buying has gone up 50% in price. It doesn’t matter that the item is extravagant, it still has gone up significantly. That’s pretty much across the board with food.

Someone answered this for me. It’s just that it’s open source. If that matters to you, there you go.

Ah, gotcha. Makes sense.

Is there anything about Aegis that makes it better than Authy? Just looking at the page for Aegis, I’m not seeing a lot of difference. And it being Android only limits it.

Did people call RCS open source? I’m not a huge follower of the standard, but I don’t think I ever heard that said. In fact, I’ve heard people complain about not just the proprietary encryption but lack of E2E and carrier/Google control.

Its only advantages are that it is better than SMS and supported by the carriers, Google and Apple sometime this year.

It’s a shitty standard but given how shitty SMS is, I’m willing to hold my nose and jump in.
