I share many of the sentiments in the comments here and thought I'd share that if anyone is interested, I'm working on a new hybrid aggregator/real time discussion site for a general audience. I started it to scratch my own i

From a laymen's perspective, it's hard to imagine just how negligent the port authorities could have been in managing the warehouse. 2750tons high-explosive Ammonium Nitrate? Check. 50tons Ammonium Phosphate? Check. Stacks of flam

haha yep, that's about the time I was hanging out on there, although I mostly remember hanging out in quake gaming channels, #skaters on efnet, maybe a few others. It was a fun time because due to the slight obstacle of figuring out ho

hey, thank you & thanks for checking it out, appreciate it! hmm, that seems like a bug! the username limit is set at 20 but maybe I accidentally copied that validation onto the password field, I'll remove it, thanks for reporting!

Yes! I wanted to build a place that's mission focused on conversation, and tries to mimic the real world as much as possible. There are no plans to add likes, voting, or public "karma", and I'm split on whether or not t

Thanks for checking it out! So the key thing is on Sqwok each post has a built-in chat room instead of comments, meaning that creating your own chat and sharing it with anyone else is as easy as sharing the url for your post. It currently w

> It should be a feature of your platform, not the only thing going for it. edit: oops pasted wrong thing! Totally agree with this. It should be baked in, not the defining feature.

I miss those days too! I used to spend a lot of time in #efnet and #dalnet, speaking to strangers about things like #skateboarding and other random topics. It was kind of cool because back then most people didn't know what irc was, nor

wouldn’t people just migrate away from the equator and habitate places like Northern Canada, Siberia, etc? Yeah it’d be terrible to abandon our cities, but we’d have a long runway to prepare and migrate. Life always finds a way...

They could have got it just as easy at the store before or after the flight, in the airport, or in the uber. Hard to know... Certainly possible but having flown a few times this past year, not too worried.

Again, I question whether removing consequences from drug use incentivizes people to quit, and assert that for many people, having real consequences can be the catalyst to make healthy changes. I am speaking from experience. Of course there

I think you can also argue the opposite. Decriminalizing addiction incentivizes people to use, as well as cushions the potential consequences of their use and prevents them from hitting rock bottom. I don't think we should shame use an

Winamp!! Wow, talk about nostalgia... this is really cool. I just realized thankfully we don't really need to test websites against IE6+ anymore but if we did and the browser worked, this would be really useful! nice work.

not sure but I had just listened to the podcast recently that talked about it's origin in relation to 8chan, really interesting stuff. Fredrick Brennan started 8chan and basically discloses who he thinks started 8chan. posted to sqwok

that's so true. I'm a very warm-weather person and so if I'm in that environment, it can be very difficult to focus because of the temptation to go to the beach, swim, exercise, play, etc. living in the PNW feels like it&#x27
