Talking Shit About a Pretty Sunset: Hatred of Actual Reality (AR)

Yeah, that's pretty much it.

d3rr · 2018-09-19T18:37:58+00:00

Wow, counterproductive PC at its finest. Not cool /r/conspiracy.

Qanon, considered a descendant of Pizzagate

That's not how I see it at all.

I say go hog wild and stop supporting any company that supports the Military Industrial Complex or that doesn't support your privacy. Plus you'll save money and have less to learn in the long run, less stressful changes. And anything you bought through Apple you have a legal or at least ethical right to pirate without the DRM. Or export it all.

So they jumped right to a 7 day ban? Which rules did they say it broke? I guess banning you but leaving the post up is their way of not censoring?

This is pure r/conspiracy to me, shining light on some of the dark sides of all abrahamic religions equally.

cool sub man

d3rr · 2018-09-15T09:12:45+00:00

Sounds good. I put it on the todo list.

bots posting links or posts or comments

In you're in the US, these guys make it really easy to buy crypto with fiat. (If you go BTC back to fiat with CoinBase they will report your "earnings" to the IRS) https://www.coinbase.com/buy-bitcoin?locale=en-US

Seconded. /u/magnora7 I think all we need for a canary is a "Warrant Canary" post on /s/SaidIt where we specify a last edited date, and a "Canary" link to it in the footer. Of course there's the hassle of updating it weekly or monthly or quarterly.

Here's some sample canaries:

For starters, there's no downvote here so content can't be buried. And brigading/vote manipulation will not be allowed. Past that, we're open to ideas. Maybe we'll get strict about ips and rate limiting to prevent upvote bots. But this is an anonymous platform so I don't think there's a silver bullet.

Unrelated to vote manipulation, we have thought about a system where sub users can vote to kick out corrupted mods.

d3rr · 2018-09-14T20:21:53+00:00

I see magnora likes it too. I'll add it to our list for such a time when we stop auto subscribing everyone to everything.

d3rr · 2018-09-14T20:19:35+00:00

S.t.a.l.k.e.r. would do it for me. I've always wanted to try Ultima VII too.

Admin here. Thanks for the support! We're hosting with a smaller well known web host, are not dependent on any cloud services, and can easily relocate/rehost the site if need be.

Will Voat and GA be able to peacefully coexist?

d3rr · 2018-09-14T20:10:50+00:00

Way cool. For anyone else out of the loop:

As we speculated previously, Valve have now officially announced their new version of 'Steam Play' for Linux gaming using a modified distribution of Wine called Proton, which is available on GitHub. What does it do? In short: it allows you to play Windows games on Linux, directly through the Steam client as if they were a Linux game.

It looks like pushshift has all reddit data and even an API to get at it. I guess it's aimed at academic researchers (or Fed bot writers) and sounds kind of stable/has been around for a while edit: but they are also having funding problems. I don't know how this project exists, it seems like reddit copyright infringement. It could go away someday but I imagine there are some backups floating around or there would be if they folded.

https://files.pushshift.io/reddit/submissions/

https://www.reddit.com/r/pushshift/

So the data isn't really usable or browseable right now. I could see writing a little script that gets API data and spits out html pages for each post, and then it could make an index page with titles and links off to the posts. Then it could be hosted and accessed on github like a normal website. So it would be like an offline friendly reddit mirror. But it all kind of falls apart at wanting to search for posts in this archive viewer. If you get into needing a server to use the damn thing it's a huge burden.

Maybe another idea would be to just download all of the pushshift data for /r/conspiracy only, maybe a couple of others, and make a torrents out of them. It would be less work, especially if no one really cares- yet.

These sound pretty good. So it's about giving every sub a fair shake and not letting popular subs overwhelm hot and new and top, on /s/home * and /s/all and /s/subscribed ? For the time range, it could use the "links from" filtering, and you could pick "past 24 hours".

d3rr · 2018-09-14T05:39:09+00:00

Yes, Spotify has them named as AJJ even. Catchy and honest songs, love it.

d3rr · 2018-09-14T03:27:18+00:00

Nice! It looks like you didn't get much of a response about the backup part. I know I've seen a few github projects that were about "archiving reddit", so let me see what I can find.

Be careful of relying on third party services that you’re not paying for.

Amen.

Nice I was just about to post this one. So Reddit basically has the same censorship partnerships as Google and Facebook. This is the nail in their coffin, we'll see how long it takes to play out over at Digg2.

d3rr · 2018-09-14T02:52:54+00:00

That's awesome man. I guess you could take his voice out of video clips if you really wanted to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74gx0v5ZJzw

Nope, no meme ideas here.

d3rr · 2018-09-14T01:14:17+00:00

There's no policy. Automated submissions are frowned upon.

d3rr · 2018-09-14T01:05:58+00:00

Cool list. I'm with you, knowing your enemy is job #1.
