I havent been on Reddit since the revolt last year. I poked my head back in.
Seems to be going well. This is the shitty official app.

@mcc Hadn't thought about it but hey yeah, noone ever talks about nines anymore. I think its because its all about security not availability.
Your service being available for all but 12 seconds a year is nice and all, but when you have an unconfigured proxy or documented backdoor account with unchanged default password `password` and all your users data is tied up in ransomeware, it doesn't seem so important. I'd rather have my backend down for 12 hrs a year to apply security patches thanks.

@mcc Its funny - my main source of scroll-news up until 2010 was Slashdot. It was on Slashdot that I found out about this hip new thing called Reddit... in a post about the demise of Digg.
I bailed on Reddit a year ago because fuck Spez and now Im back on Slashdot (although most scrnews is here not there.)

@WarnerCrocker And of all the hills to literally die on.
Commercial grade food pasterurization was prooven by Appert in 1810, so I know there's only a measly 210 yrs of experience and knowledge on this one, but the envidence is overwhelming - pasteurization is GOOD. Makes food safer AND keep longer. How can you possibly look at it and go naw, this is clearly a brain control ploy by THE MAN.
What's next, sanitization of surgical instruments? Oh pls do, I hear sepsis is deliciously painful.

@emmecola ah. So we can use chat gpt to decode the captchas blocking signups for chatgpt accounts. Just keep forking account sign-up scripts until all chatgpt does is chatgpt sign-up captcha. The chatgpt captcha event horizon!

@RickiTarr I live in mid southwestern Ontario Canada. We're a ~90m train or drive away from Toronto which is nice, but we're just far away to not have megatropolis woes like Ultra-Traffic to deal with. While I live in a mid-sized metro area of about half a mil, twenty minutes in any direction gets you into farm fields where they all talk and behave like Letterkenny, which frankly is more accurate than most Canadians want to admit.

@RickiTarr While there's a bunch of nice things about Canada (like not paying for healthcare, still a rather progressive (freedom and rights) and protective constitutional, legal and legislative system) and we have gobs of nice nature to enjoy, we like some of our cousins south of the border are fighting a wave of conservative populism that is (trying to) dismantle a lot of the good things for $profit$. And while we don't have quite the same money in politics problem,

@RickiTarr we still give our big corporations way too much leeway (oil+gas, groceries, residential income trusts) and in the past 20 years especially they've been gouging and screwing us and our environment. Unless we bought our homes in the mid 00s, noone I know under 50 can afford to buy a house anywhere practical.
But, all things considered, still not a terrible place to live.

Eclipse totality done.
I think what I found coolest or perhaps disconcerting was how dark it got... but unlike at sunrise or dusk there were no shadows. Like the streetlights came on but there's no *shadows*.

"Is that Aloo Matar?" asks a coworker. "Looks good."
Thanks I say. Its one of my GF's favourite recipes and I like making it for her (I do all the cooking).
`<coworker eyes me picking all the potatoes out>`
What?
"Its called Aloo Matar. 'Potato Peas', literally."
I don't like potato!
"Then why do yo make it?"
And make two of everything? fuck that shit. You do all the cooking then.

Aaand its bedtime. Just binged e1-5 of #Netflix's #3body #ThreeBodyProblem. Quite excellent. No spoilers but:
- waay better screenwriting than the Tencent adaptation
- teeny bit less faithful to the book
- location shift to the UK doesn't really affect much
- does a better job at the time jumps
- moves a LOT brisker
- trimmed out some stuff that I don't find are missed
- the hard concepts are explained really well
- the cool bits are HECKA GOOD (yay Netflix budget)
- casting is *excellent*. -

One of the leaders of the Truck Idiot #Convoy is speaking right now, on the 2 yr anniversary of the Great Canadian Idiot Parade err I mean the invocation of the Emergencies Act in #Ottawa #Canada.
It/he/they are a hot mess. Rambling. Incoherent rhetoric. The government conspiracy blah blah. Unfair oppression of a province (Alberta, oil).
Mike, from Canmore, was a better communicator.
