  • Defiantly 5, but if there’s more than 15 words delete it?

    That should clear out the walls of text and keep the “1 liner” screen shots.

    You could also require text walls to be transcribed, no transcription = delete. If the poster can’t be bothered to type it all out, why should we bother reading the jpeg distortion? (Again option #5).

    One thing that stunk about reddit culture was the hyper-focus of the “meme/joke” communities. “Oh sorry your cat meme doesn’t fit r/happycatmeme, it must be on r/cheerfulcatmemes”, here’s an account ban for your mistake."

    Sure, we have a microblog community, but like someone else said, we don’t need to go nuclear on people for posting here. Just tell them microblog exists. If they keep posting text here, baring any spam/malice, we can individually choose to block them.






  • The data they compiled is really cool.

    If reading the chart right, the genera with the most artists is opera.

    Even if they didn’t have the music files, the analysis on the metadata is insane.

    Publicly admitting they are the origin of the torrents is definitely a risky an insane move. I don’t think they want Sony going after them, but also fuck Sony for locking art behind shitty contracts that forces these kind of projects to exist.


  • I saw/heard an interesting take from a YouTube the other day.

    They argued that forks are killing Firefox. Everyone using a fork doesn’t get counted in firefox’s numbers, they don’t see all the Linux user or people turning off AI features because we turned telemetry off. They only see the telemetry of the windows users that use the AI features everyday.

    On one hand fuck Firefox’s current direction and the forks are great. On the other hand, maybe we should all use Firefox for some casual stuff just to keep the numbers up??? Keep shopping and banking stuff to the privacy respecting browsers, but the random Wikipedia rabbit holes can happen in Firefox.





  • And the fix is a firmware update not a total recall? So its either buggy overcomplicated software or the update tweaked things to reduce the power draw so you got less machine power than what you were advertised.

    Which honestly for a washer machine is pretty cool they can fix that sort of issue without the hassle of replacing the big machine, but if only these kinds of major safety issues could be figured out in pre-production.
