Probably some kind of horrific bomb.

It looks like the big technological leap in relation to ‘How can we use superconductors to hurt things’ is to use them in making advanced EMP devices. It doesn’t seem like anyone has figured out any other obvious use cases for them that massively change or improve upon the other horrific devices that we’ve already come up with.

In regards to potential for use in war crimes, it could be a lot worse.

Just an option, there are a lot of places out there that will sell you a ‘refurbished’ phone with 1-3 year warranty. eBay even has an integrated program for it, I think they call it ‘certified refurbished’.

Super useful, it’s very similar to how magnet links for torrenting works. I know of a few less popular file sharing services that can act and search for files based on hash alone.

A lot of other areas online make use of hashes as identifiers already too. If you search for a hash of a file you’ve downloaded, just the hash and nothing else, there’s a very good chance you’ll get multiple results.

This is kind of problematic… By creating a community driven hashlist that is freely shared, you’ve also kind of created an index of CSAM content that could easily be extrapolated for people actively looking to find/share that content.

Wow… Did someone tell Reddit that April Fools was in July or something? It’s this close to being a bad joke.

A lot of us had kind of been looking forward to it honestly.

One common thread I’ve seen with nearly every mod post stating that they’re probably going out is a general sense of relief.

Note the statement to remove any and all offensive content. If they’re still going the malicious compliance route, they’re implying they’re going to nuke the sub.

I used to be on Facebook Dating, when I go awhile without logging in to facebook, it seems to remember that I was on it and starts telling me about potential matches with photos that seem to slowly get more attractive.

r/programming was one of the earliest subreddits, I think it was actually #2. Can’t view it anymore, but the moderation team of r/programming would have been pretty reddit admin/staff heavy. Pretty sure spez was listed on the moderation team at one point.

It looks like the current plan is just to archive subreddits, turn off comments, and leave them public until the IPO.

Unless you happen to be r/programming of course and someone noticed the ChatGPT bots that seem to consistently be posting statements supportive of the admins. Then we got to force the subreddit to private immediately.

Unrelated segue, did you know that Sam Altman, current CEO of OpenAI, responsible for ChatGPT, was a long time reddit board member, and despite claims that he left last year, is still listed as being on the board of reddit?

Also, anyone else find it weird that in a lot of the threads talking about the protests on reddit… While the most upvoted comments usually favor the admins, if you look at the sheer number of comments speaking out on a lot of major threads and don’t worry about the upvote/downvote ratio, the number of comments in favor of the protests near completely dwarfs the number of comments in favor of the admins. Just another interesting data point.

It’s almost like there was a way for someone who owned the website to manipulate things in their favor and then call in a favor from someone with an interest in the company to help them do a very poor job of making it seem like it was all justified by the community.

I think the only real way for anyone to get it is to experience it. I thought it was bullshit propaganda too and I also thought I was relatively far left before first arriving at the .ml domain and further lemmygrad. I am still kind of surprised that we have a community out there that large that seems to legitimately identify with the ‘tankie’ ideology.

It’s a bit of a culture shock realizing that you might just be a progressive moderate.

If that medical opinion wasn’t backed up by doctors and the majority of the medical community, I’d imagine that opinion probably would be.
