I don’t follow many people on YouTube so the only person that meets this criteria is Gracie Fitzpeter, who really deserves more views. I absolutely love channels that do overlong in-depth videos on super niche topics that I have zero stake in. She has so many hours of videos on the Warrior Cats series and Resident Evil, and I’ve watched probably all of them. I’ve never read the Warrior Cats books or played Resident Evil. Perfect.

I’m sure it’s not a malicious script, but it’s not a good idea to pipe an internet resource into an admin terminal. What if his website gets hacked?


I know people have mostly gotten over it at this point but it still irks me when I see an installer that’s just “pipe this random script from the internet directly into an admin terminal”. They should at least put a note like “hey this is potentially a dangerous action. you should ideally download this locally and inspect it first before you run it” even if most people aren’t gonna do it.


Yeah this is a good use of my time. I’m 25 minutes in and the production quality is top-notch.


I don’t know what form of karma Wander meant, but for me the “global karma” numbers are the worst part of reddit. People constantly posting stupid things or self-censoring to try to make number go up.


I’ve been using catbox.moe and imgbox.com. Both can be interacted with anonymously via API and never take down uploads


I also got that Lemmur post showing up on my “hot”. Threw me for a loop for about 3 minutes - I was trying to investigate whether Lemmur had started development again this morning.
