This could have been something that reddit pitched successfully to the site at the time - they could have acknowledged that folks don’t like ads and made a point of framing advertisers as entities choosing to support reddit and keep it free & functional - Reddit likes supporting “it’s own”. They could have facilitated and supported connections between advertisers and targeted communities in ways that bypass Reddit’s hostility towards ads and appeals to advertisers. Instead they just started serving ads.

And they didn’t just start serving ads, they started serving ads like the HeGetsUs campaign that were so poorly targeted that the community they’d built absolutely hated them.

USB-C is standard for Android devices, but Apple devices still use lightning.

Only the accessibility focused apps will be allowed by Reddit to continue as long as they aren’t monetized. Sure, if you want to allow blind people to read Reddit because we can’t figure out how to do it, go nuts. But only as long as you don’t expect anything for your time and effort.

Apple 100% supports subscriptions for apps.

Libel of this nature must not stand. They’re blood emeralds.

Yeah, if the filament is loose that should be your first step, it may not be able to keep the switch closed consistently.

Really depends what you use it for. Being able to make a good beef chili on a weeknight is fantastic, but people certainly try to use them for things that aren’t meant for pressure cooking.

I wouldn’t rely on a strategy that requires cops to read.

One year in jail for raping a 5 year old.

Make sure both ends of the cable are seated firmly.

Open the sensor up and check for any debris that may interfere with the microswitch.

If both of those are ok, you’ll want to check continuity of the cable with a multimeter, to make sure the cable hasn’t broken internally somewhere. Once that’s confirmed good, tape the switch closed and test continuity through the switch. Typically those sensors are made with really cheap microswitches, so you may need to just swap it out with a more reliable switch.

Good news is they’re extremely simple, and so pretty easy to test.

This just makes me think of Kleiman v. Wright, where Craig Wright (among many, many other shenanigans) claimed that a printout of an email wasn’t an email, it was a piece of paper. That didn’t end up going the way he wanted.

Vornado Evap40 and the zigbee/zwave outlet controller of your choice. It’s classic dumb tech; if you have it switched on but the power is off, it’ll start just fine when you turn the power back on. The top of the central unit just lifts right off for cleaning. And it’s a pure evaporative unit, so if something happens and it fails on, it’s still self regulating.

Does anyone feel the grain going vertical on the second drawer make it stand out?

Sure, but for shop furniture I don’t care. Can always paint it if you want more consistency.

The problem with procgen for variety is that it’s almost always a few procedural changes layered onto a finite, typically small, set of “types”. You can see this in games like No Man’s Sky, where there are technically billions of different animals that you might encounter on a planet, but a lot of them are pretty similar. Even in DRG with their terrain gen, they’re building on room templates that you’ll start to recognize the more you play.

It’s kind of like those ad campaigns about how many millions of ways you can make a burger. Sure, a 1/4 lb cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, onions, and ketchup on a sesame seed bun is technically different from a 1/4 lb cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, onions, and mustard on a sesame seed bun, but they’re both still burgers. You might hit onto some unique combinations (e.g. meat, cheese, and toast on the bottom, with no top bun -> patty melt) but you’re ultimately still just seeing burgers everywhere, and the system that generated the burger isn’t ever going to generate aloo gobi.

Not even “are poor”, just “aren’t rich.” Immigrating is expensive, both in actual costs and in loss of stability.

No new missions since Industrial Sabotage, although s3 added lithophage decontamination as an objective that can appear in existing mission types.

S4 seems to be pretty light on significant new content, but on the other hand, jetboots will only serve to increase the number of warcrimes the driller can commit per minute.

I’m taking a break at the moment, too many hostile decisions that appear to only be getting worse (where have I heard that before?).

There’s no stock or similar security, so the SEC doesn’t care at all. Could be a plausible deniability thing, I just think it’s more likely that he really is that dumb, given the stories about Tesla/SpaceX having teams that basically existed just to control him.

Complex wires isn’t that bad once you learn how to account for the parts of the diagram that are deliberately confusing, but they’re a lot harder if you only have one person with the manual. If you have 2+ people with the manual, one can get to work solving complex wires while the other helps the defuser with other modules.
