I'm curious if there's a good way to extend this to reply videos that refute the main video. If you lock it to the original authors control then if someone e disagrees with them and is fact checking their BS that reply would never

If it's anything like redesign work I'm used to, someone redesigned and just happened to remove it with little reason for it. Then the numbers went up as people had to scroll so they assumed everyone loved the redesign and didn&#x

He specifically disavowed (but supported, indirectly) the blackouts at first. He initially didn't want to risk Reddit retaliating at him for calling for a blackout when (at the time) communication was still somewhat positive. But he di

That would kill a lot of Twitter culture though (for better or worse). Changing a name for "spooky season", updating a profile pic to promote a new event, etc. It also would make it risky for a large company to change their logo (

You'd still have edge cases where a change in verified name is needed (marriages, avoiding deadnaming, etc). A solution like this might narrow the problem space, but it doesn't solve the issues.

That isn't always easy to verify though if you aren't familiar with the person, their public image, and their current events. For example if Ed Sheeran changes their profile picture to an X, how do you know he means his Multiply a

I'm not sure a bar is the best analogy here though. Yes a bar also derives value from it's users in a way, but a customers value there only really exists for as long as they are in the building. The customer doesn't invest th

Time is something I'm struggling with too, though for me it's more that a transaction may have multiple times associated with it but GnuCash only accepts a single one. For example if I transfer between two banks, the date of the t

As a relatively new GnuCash user id love to hear how you made that coffee report. I'm struggling to customize reports right now so I'm really curious how you'd do something like that. Also for Fidelity I've been struggli

Your last option sounds appealing to me here. Yes it does mean that you can never really make the name of your repo fully private after it's been started, but the name isn't really what's important most of the time. And there

You've described my situation too, though it's not a rent increase I'm worried about, it's the installation of a mandatory smart lock that I've somehow avoided for a few months now.

+1 to learning a little bit of Vim, but I'd say buffers aren't necessary to get a passable experience. At least for casual SSH purposes. Never been able to get the hang of tmux though. I know it's super powerful but I feel li

Then add a "we work best in chrome" to your error pages as a workaround when it actually fails, not before you even try. There's no need for the "go use X browser right now" messages unless you're taking advant

I'm not sure the exact breakdown of their rewards, but baking a COL adjustment and a merit increase in a single number doesn't really count. Makes it way too easy to reduce pay increases.

I think it's more that you're with a group of people who don't hate advertising enough to take any action against it.

Well now you've got me thinking. That has to be very feasible for any content you own the file for, but I wonder how steaming services currently handle subtitles. Are they embedded into the video stream or are they their own channel? C

Those examples are "pay money to spend more time with the game" but OPs example is "pay money to spend less time playing the game". Both extract money from you, but in different ways.

If I published my own copy of a public domain work I'm not diverting the income stream away from the original creator's estate. Yes I'd be taking some income from it, but the descendants of the author are equally able to do t

It would create a lot of awkward interactions for any of their ex's who see the data after it's published, or their family. Easier to avoid it at least in the public copy. Though I'd argue even tracking it personally might ca

Except those channels probably have the means to run it legally and with the right caveats, legalese, tax documentation, etc. Sweepstakes and giveaways aren't banned, they just have some overhead and legal requirements around them.
