Google does not change YouTube recommendations based on your IP, it's entirely based on cookies, they have no way to tell how many people are behind the NAT. Try going to YouTube in private mode. Personally I always use YouTube this wa

I think the online discourse will look ugly but having them butt heads instead of sit in an echo chamber dulls them. I don't think people appreciate the degree to which the Right has radicalized from people joining echo chambers afte

As far as moderators go dang is amazing (and I say that as someone who's been banned by him.) I think Twitter is meant to be a very different kind of forum than HN though.

I didn't downvote you but I think regulation here could only make things worse. IMO it only did harm to TV and radio. Most people are probably tired of hearing and debating this idea.

Are "Biden officials" working in the best interest of the US or the Democrat party?

Nah, social media is plenty feasible and the Twitter UI/abstraction is probably ideal like GP says (although I think the implementation would be different than you're imagining.) They'd just colocate on the other planets and

That's a great anime. I'd highly recommend it even if you're not an anime fan.

I've been told paper/plastic tape is actually one of the best archival methods.

Canadian politics are extremely different from American politics so even though other aspects of our culture are shared you have to pay much closer attention to understand what's going on over the border. (This goes both ways, it took

What you're looking for is "GNU Readline."

It's really great but people get confused that you can't just "go to mastodon."

It's probably ending no matter what.

I'm taking to the bank Musk won't be allowed to fix Twitter. I've got a bearish position opened.

Precisely. I wanted to avoid painting a cartoonish and emotional picture though.

Sorry, I've edited it again (I tend to do that a lot, it's easier than typing everything out only to discover I've used up my post quota for the day.) Liberals are definitely not in the same bucket as leftists, they're a

Like someone else mentioned it's probably because the video is in some kind of pure framebuffer mode.

I think this subculture you've noticed might actually be part of that "Red Scare." I really don't like the "cultural socialism" phrase. There are too many connotations in it and it's probably too vague for

I know I need to look for a new job. My last raise was much smaller than the people who left and I can tell I'm emotionally done with the technology I'm working with. I really hate job hunting though and the company I'm at

I've never developed anything with SharePoint but I've used apps made with it. You can tell that's going on from the outside.

There's no way people are going to be burning ammonia in personal engines. The pollutants from burning it are far worse than burning hydrocarbons. On industrial scales it might be feasible to scrub the exhaust (and even recycle them, s

Personally I prefer pandoc+latex. Most kids know markdown and those that don't can learn it very easily. I actually did my homework in college on a Raspberry pi for a few semesters just because I'm cheap and knew I could get away

We don't use video at all and I for one have gotten used to it and never turn it on now. It all happened one week where everyone just started showing up to scrum with the video off. Me and one other coworker where the last to give it u

Debian is still Systemd based. If you want to get away from that you need something pretty bizarre like Alpine or Gentoo.
