Link to that? I don’t see any such protections except for children and some for journalists. Nothing saying you can’t be banned if they want.

Never expect free speech (or other constitutional protections) in a private forum, which is one reason the right is always gung-ho for privatization.

We didn’t have -R, you had to go into every subdirectory and run the command manually.

Gaslighting

It should also keep us from trying to exploit or attack each other

Too late, you said rat!

I need the cereal wet. I don’t like dry cereal, it is too hard on my mouth and gums up my mouth.

I put the cream/milk in before I pour the coffee though. This guarantees there is always room for the right amount of milk and it mixes automatically without needing a stirrer.

It is a basic biological function so you could say pooping is a privilege too.

Surprised to hear stability questioned. We have RHEL systems at work that have been running 24/7 for over a year.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they get a class action suit over security/data violations.

I wish I could just keep upvoting this.

I’ll add, want to see your average person roll their eyes and say “nope”, just tell them they have to manually edit a bunch of config files to get going. How much about your car do you need to know to start your car and get somewhere?

I was going to suggest Canada or Greenland…

Mine are excellent listeners. They just can’t respond anymore though.

I bet they have a bad sense of taste. Probably complain at every restaurant.

I waited about 6 months and I’m using the same email and devices. It felt like I had a temp shadowban when I was back on but after about 2 months that seems to have gone away.

I avoid getting pulled into fights now by blocking users and subreddits that are obnoxious.

You don’t, you wait it out until they stop blocking that IP or email. New account.

I got a new account after my old one got banned but now I never challenge the echo chamber. I just ban/block obnoxious subs and users to avoid the temptation. I stay mainly for some interest groups there and local subs.

Saw one mod in a sub bragging about how they banned lots of users for challenging a post and they were getting cheered on. Wonder if that is in line with reddit’s policy?

Similar to the argument Intelligent Design (anti evolutionists) use. They always point to fossil gaps and say “Well, what happened there?” You have no control over what gets fossilized and where you can find them and there will always be a gap somewhere. “Well there is a gap on Tuesday, 67,000,000 BC!” There is no possible way to fill in every imaginable gap with physical evidence vs seeing patterns and development across those gaps.

It feels like they are flogging themselves and want you to take pity on them. It feels either a little manipulative and/or tiresome. Say it once and let’s move on. The other person is very unlikely to be holding you as culpable as you making yourself out to be.
