Meatwagon

Need for Speed 2.

Tried running a decent Qwen on a 3060 TI but I only have 16g ram so it kept getting stuck and not completing tasks.

He’s more progressive on queer rights and abortion than a standard US Catholic so I’ll have to take what I can get.

Tribalism and anti-intellectualism. They care more that their “team” is winning, like some sort of football team.

Every news broadcast is compromised so they’d have to seek out real information themselves, but they “don’t have time” for that or understand information literacy at all and we aren’t allowed to teach it in schools.

My own mom is completely brainwashed. She will trust my opinion on everything except politics. She’s convinced Trump saved everyone from Iran nuking us and we will all die of we dare cut our military at all. She’s okay with early abortion, but thinks Colorado had people aborting full term babies. I send her articles and she refuses to read them because she’s “too tired”. I try to talk to her and she calls everyone I support a communist. She’s the least bad out of the rest of my family, I’m not even on speaking terms with the rest because they just treat it like a football game and just want to “own the libs”.

Where I am it’s not even sweet. It’s just tasteless. The bananas are grey, the apples have no flavor.

Nutritional yeast has b vitamins and tastes good sprinkled on a lot of stuff.

I sit there dumping it on salad greens and eating it plain like that like some kind of goblin.

I’m not even vegetarian.

Piefed through Connect on mobile. Voyager was throwing out of date errors since my phone is on a very old version of android.

I couldn’t either because I had undiagnosed ADHD.

Once I got the meds I was able to tolerate it. Try drinking coffee when you study to see if it helps.

Other than that I really limited my study time. I stopped for the day after two hours no matter what and kept it to one subject per day, and rewarded myself with something I wanted to do after.

Ooo thanks for the reminder!

I joined reddit in 2011 or 2012. Was quickly made a mod of a support subreddit for a medical condition I had. I filled up the sidebar with resources and posted every day trying to help people. Even sent money to people who couldn’t afford physical therapy.

I built up a mod team of wonderful people. We traveled to meet each other IRL a few times and even went to Washington D.C. together to advocate for more research funding for our condition.

We took over abandoned related subreddits and even created new ones where we saw a need.

All this to say I really put effort into bettering Reddit, building communities, and making it a cozy place with helpful resources.

The API shit happened. I never lost RiF because I just used the cracked versions of it, but what got me was how the Admins were threatening their mods. Up until this point the subreddit you built was yours. Entirely yours. You could do whatever you wanted on it because you’re the one who built it. Mods could run rampant and ban everyone and the admins wouldn’t do anything. It sucked when it happened to you, but that was the tradeoff of Reddit. At least your subreddit was yours. The admins that day showed that wasn’t true.

If the subreddit wasn’t yours then what was the point of doing all that effort? You were just an unpaid employee now.

I stepped back a bit but didn’t leave. My subreddit still needed me. I still had Rif working. But I stopped curating the sidebar and wiki.

Then Reddit allowed people to start hiding their post history and made decisions that caused my mod toolbox to stop working without replacing those tools natively on anything except their shitty app.

Without my tools I can’t moderate efficiently so I stopped. Without seeing post history I refused to rely to people. Bots destroyed a subreddit I enjoyed despite like 50 reports from me alone. So I stopped going on Reddit. Only one mod remains active of our subreddit and she’s on the verge of quitting too.

I’m focused on here, bluesky, and discord now. I still have to use Reddit for a niche gaming community but I just lurk now, and only go maybe once a week versus how I used to post 20 times a day.

Mine was pretty bland too. “Has 1 cat” and “reads fantasy”. I wanted to get insulted.

I went through this phase. I actually am not and never will be like other girls and could never makes friends or identify with them for a good reason. I’m autistic.

I now have many girl friends, but they are also all autistic.

It was roaches.

Which doesn’t sound healthy since a lot of people are allergic to roaches.

Reminds me of Antinorn and the Norn torture websites for the game Creatures. Lots of people were trying to get the guy to stop.

As long as instance owners moderate, the trashy people will be forced too flock to instances that allow that type of behavior and then we can block those instances individually.

I left Reddit because of how the moderators got pissed on, not the community. I just never went to /r/popular and enjoyed my life. My mod tools were removed from me and I can’t be assed to get their shitty app. I’d rather put my time somewhere that I’m not being used for free labor while also being sold as a product.

But what are you going to do about it right at this moment? Presumably if you’re like me you already know who you’re going to vote for, or at least certainly who you’re not voting for. Anything major will pop up in some feed somewhere so you don’t have to listen to whatever dumb shit Trump said on Tuesday.

I get a daily digest from NPR and that’s enough. A 15 minute browse then I’m done with the “news” for the day.

Ecco The Dolphin: Defender of the Future - originally for Dreamcast then the PlayStation 2. Loved that game. It was so bizarre but done well.

I wrote an English paper on this game as a tie in for fourth wall breaking.

We know all IT departments are primarily composed of furries, so it’s just a branch of number 1 really.
