Seems dangerous, it's a breach of the ToS I assume so they're opening up to possible liability if Reddit got pissy. I'm actually surprised this kind of research gets IRB and other approval given you're violating ToS unless given a variance from it (I used to conduct research on social networks and had to get preapproved accounts for the purpose, and the data I was given was carefully limited.)

Usually wise to avoid trusting the people you see in mirrors as well, never know what they're doing when you're not around.

Yep I've played with virtual monitors in VR space and I don't even like watching movies on them, the loss in resolution and the way the dynamic aspect of it (using a moving screen to simulate a static screen) makes it a shitty solution. Eventually it'll be good enough to watch TV in but I can't imagine doing serious work in it.

Money addicts will risk their half trillion dollar fortune trying to save a small fraction of it

This really feels like Reddit in the first couple years. It went to shit so gradually I didn't even notice although I can remember big events. I remember when "downvote ≠ disagree" and the place felt nicer.

Yeah nowadays Reddit has not just every sub, but every meme version of a sub, and that's neat, but at what cost? I don't like being on it, and I've been um, banned an awful lot of times lately. Not really worth it. So I will have to try to build the top few communities I am missing here, like centuryhomes.

Or lay them all out diagonally and use the Pythagorean theorum

Yep my dog needs 1+ mile in the morning and at least 2 miles in the afternoon for optimal health - bowels, muscles, etc. He's 7 now and acts like a dog half his age.

Then some of my friends are like "I try to take mine around the block at least once a week" and I am sad for their poor dog.

Hard to find good dogsitters who will actually take them on long walks too.

  1. Minute. Orgasms.

My skin drastically improved once I figured this out, it hates having the top layer scraped off with a blade. Electric razor is perfect.

Iowa was improving in the 90s, improving in the 2000s. They were blue then.

Now I hate going back, it's not the same state I grew up in. Abortion billboards and porn stores, same as the bible belt now.

The state is not improving but they don't care anymore, long as the right people (like me) get hurt.

Look at the Atlantic interview.

"I would never, ever consider running again, I'm against it, I don't even want to talk about it, it's a boundary too far, stop asking."

"However I do have people shouting in my face that I must."

I created my account to have one ready, then when I got banned, it was easy to hop over
