I mean there's Brian Tyler Cohen, David Pakman, Sam Seder ... then there's Hasan, Vaush and stuff, but you also have the Daily Wire and other alt-right people that I don't watch. It's a pretty big range.

Yeah, I became an inpatient at a private mental health hospital. I can't tell you how quickly I tried to convince myself I didn't belong there and how everyone had real problems and I'm not like them.

It was nice doing some group therapy to just see other people. There's something amazing about not needing to explain what you're going through and just having others know. It's not the same thing as others but yeah ... a mix of therapy and change of environment and antidepressants got me out.

We did share this video when I had a bit of my imposter syndrome in there: https://youtu.be/XiCrniLQGYc if you haven't seen it before I recommend it.

The accounts are so important that you're willing to lose sales in that many countries?!

R1s statement in response from the article:

“rabbit r1 is not an Android app. We are aware there are some unofficial rabbit OS app/website emulators out there. We understand the passion that people have to get a taste of our AI and LAM instead of waiting for their r1 to arrive. That being said, to clear any misunderstanding and set the record straight, rabbit OS and LAM run on the cloud with very bespoke AOSP and lower level firmware modifications, therefore a local bootleg APK without the proper OS and Cloud endpoints won’t be able to access our service. rabbit OS is customized for r1 and we do not support third-party clients. Using a bootlegged APK or webclient carries significant risks; malicious actors are known to publish bootlegged apps that steal your data. For this reason, we recommend that users avoid these bootlegged rabbit OS apps.”

So there's literally no reason for this to have been a device at all.

<<looks in the mirror, and calls the cops>>

"Hello! Police? There's a handsome man in my house. Oh wait, it's just me."

Is this what Joe Rogan was talking about when he was talking about sudden vaccine deaths?

Seriously though this is brutal and freaking disgusting. Your misinformation campaign isn't just about money it takes people's lives too.

Anyone who follows the alt-right, did Joe or anyone else go ape shit over this yet? I'm assuming that because they were going crazy over the previous Twitter about certain infractions under the old guard ... so this new shit must be driving them crazy. Being free speech activists and all that.

I remember when I was working with .NET and I saw some web service code and I saw there was no try catches. They didn't have a global catch in the asax either or anything. I just wrapped each call into a try catch and log.

I got the same treatment where my manager wanted to know what happened with the increase in errors. I told him what I did. My manager got another developer to go through my commits regardless. I was a bit upset at the lack of trust.

I thought Sam did put on the ring in the books.

It also affected Boromir just being around it.

Didn't Smeagol kill a friend just to have it before even wearing it?

Right wing groups in the US made Planned Parenthood a political issue. It doesn't make it a political organization.

I feel sorry for Unity because I want them to be profitable and all that. However, they have a greedy prick for a CEO and one of the dumbest change rollouts I've seen (Twitter has been crazy bad lately too) at this scale. It wipes away any empathy for them and makes you yearn for their collapse.

I remember when Joe was a harmless idiot that had some fun.

Rather than a right wing crackpot.

I always thought it was weird when he said you needed to listen to all types of media like Fox as well as MSNBC. I was like, you can listen to neither of those things .... Let's not forget Fox got sued for libel/slander in the Dominion case as well. So it's not another opinion or side that Fox is on, it's outright propaganda.

For June 20 and 21, the most recent days for which Similarweb has estimates, the ads site got in the range of 7,500 to 9,000 visits, Carr explained, meaning that ad-buying traffic has continued to drop.

I'm glad Reddit is feeling something from this, however, at the same time. I kinda don't care. It's a shame it went the way that it did. But spez can't take back his terrible attitude and decision making on what happened. Most people were sympathetic and wanting Reddit to be profitable and rooting for Reddit. However, spez just decided to come out swinging from nowhere hitting his allies in the face.
