Starting off my week with a crown on a molar that decided that chewing wasn’t really an activity it wanted to participate in. Heartened by how my team performed on last Friday when I took a day off, and there were some escalations/failures.

Checking in to see if there’s going to be any activity here…

I used to do this with Gentoo, and it was always a blast! Glad that you’re having fun “rolling your own!”

That looks fantastic!

Thanks for sharing! I appreciate it!

Why shouldn’t work be fun? Why is there an expectation of misery in exchange for living?

I kind of feel like a weirdo for not chatting a lot, I guess?

I think cheddar on top of apple pie is a pretty common thing, but American cheese sounds off.

This is some good news. I don’t have a deep or intelligent comment beyond, “nice.”

I think you hit on one of the key points. Every other time this same pattern has played out, each of those sites becomes a shadow of what they once were, but the continue because (to be blunt) running Internet sites is CHEAP.

Really, it's totally in the category "when you're getting something for free, you're not the audience, but rather the product."

When people failed to buy in very deeply to the tchotchkes to "pay" for Reddit, it was the last gasp of any effort other than wholesaling the dataset to advertisers and anyone willing to pay for the content.

My break from Reddit wasn't driven by any one single act, but rather the continued (and organized) sanitization of the Internet to appease conservative, Christian investors who make demands on the morality of the content of a site.
