I’m not sure how this will be handled, considering there is only one kind of NSFW tag, but the reddit admins said that only sexually explicit content will be inaccessible from the API.

I wonder how pissing off the power users, which produce most of the content, is going to turn out. There is a similar issue with moderators, who heavily rely on third party tools to moderate their subs. I can’t imagine this killing reddit,

High reliability/availability, data integrity, and the insane IO are the main pros I can think of. While there is a lot to talk about there, I think all of those points are dwarfed by the main draw: legacy support. Companies running ma

The autocorrect is impressively awful. I’d much prefer a simple autocorrect over what they have now, which will “fix” correctly spelled words with something that doesn’t even make sense. I’ve had a few times where it learns something from a

I wonder how we can even determine what effects microplastics have on the human body when they are so prolific that every human on earth has them. Comparing with humans from the past has many challenges, so I guess the best we can do is com

The razor housing can make a big difference to this as well. I find feathers are far too sharp for me in one of my razors but are excellent in another, while astra blades are perfect in the first one and too dull in the second.

If you don’t benefit from the upgrades, of course you aren’t excited about them. If you do benefit from them, it’s more exciting. I was excited when I got the iPhone 13 Pro because of the LiDAR ToF sensor and being able to utilize Apple’s n

Buying used in general is risky, but I’d wager buying from a miner is not much worse than buying used from a non-miner. I believe miners are more likely to undervolt their cards and with running them at a constant rate, they won’t undergo t
