That is true, two things can be true at once. I sometimes fail to realize that.

The website includes a quote from a Reddit employee:

Old Reddit’s logged-out experience is a significant source of abusive scraping and automated traffic on the platform. It’s also an important interface for many long-time mods and Redditors. To strike the right balance between preserving your access to Old Reddit while preventing abusive scraping and automated traffic, over the next month we will start requiring everyone to log in.

I didn’t realize casually browsing a website is “abusive scraping”. Isn’t that the equivalent of claiming that reading a news article online is “abusive scraping”?

I guess so, because that’s what I did. Before I deleted my account, I made sure my profile was 100% purged and it was.

Edit: I used this (GitHub link to Power Delete Suite), it took a while but that’s only because I had many pages of content.

That makes sense. Regarding your comment re:

“You could definitely simplify an OS like Linux to be more console oriented

I keep seeing videos on YouTube of people installing Ubuntu on their PS5’s - do you think this will gain traction with Sony and Microsoft and allow consumers to install a Linux distro officially like how Steam has SteamOS?

I also notice that when there is a discussion or video regarding modding a console, it’s to “preserve” its longevity rather than having a practical use.

What would be an open platform for consoles?

Zuck saw Gabe’s new mansion and got jealous

I made the decision to purge my Reddit account - bulk deleted everything I’ve commented and posted, and deleted my account. I don’t like the direction they’re headed in. When I first started using it, discussion was 100% encouraged; if you looked hard enough and tried hard enough, you could get into deep conversations or learn something you hadn’t known before. Nowadays, though, anything you post is subject to Reddit’s keyboard warriors. Instead of actually discussing things, they name call and go through your Reddit history to find something to make fun of you for. Hell, did you know even if you had your Reddit account set to private, people could download extensions to see it?

I’m assuming this also applies to Consoles as well: Sony removed purchased movies from people’s Sony Pictures Core app. I wonder if, or when, they’ll decide to do the same to games.

If it does come to that: what are our options as console gamers (other than piracy)? Buying physical discs?

I would love to see data from the previous Iran war(s) and compare the stats to this one.

I’m pretty sure they are used together; TOR to access the dark web and the VPN to keep the feds off you.

I wish I had knowledge in coding and programming. I find it fascinating how someone could grab code from something and add whatever they want for the greater good. No matter how hard I try, it doesn’t click. All my brain power goes towards musical knowledge.

I have absolutely no experience in coding, programming, or anything to do with how Linux works and operates - I was easily able to install CachyOS onto my laptop removing windows completely. Reading comprehension is difficult if one isn’t used to reading wikis, however it’s pretty self explanatory; if a monkey like me can do it, anyone can.
