One of the quirks of the #reddit API is that it only ever retrieves 1,000 results from each of the category combinations you can query — which also limits the total history you can see in your profile on the web. For me, with 15 years of history, the few thousand comments I was able to delete were a drop in the water.
So I did a GDPR request, got a bunch of CSVs referencing every post and comment I've ever made there by ID, and tonight's fun project will be to script deleting them all 🥳
I think the mission was to help get aid in t the country, people still need that aid as they are still starving or in need of medical supplies and water.
So mission is far from complete.
Wanna hear something infuriating?
It’s illegal to raise beef in Saudi Arabia because it requires too much water.
So, rich Saudis made deals with Republican legislators in Arizona to buy large chunks of DESERT ranch land. We’re talking 6000 acres.
And they very quickly pumped that land dry. So dry that neighboring ranchers and farmers now have NO water because their wells are bone dry.
The Saudis PAID NOTHING for this water (during a drought?!) and all those Republican fucks retired rich.
