That quotation and the other one in the article seem to be from comments on the social media posts, not comments from people actually on the cliff.

I have two .af domain names that got suspended as well. I don't even think they had a single DNS record set right now, but I had short-term plans for them. Oh well.

Fair point, but we should celebrate any privacy wins we can get. That privacy is a consideration at all is a good start.

It's a render. Sorry for the Reddit link, but this seems to be where the artist posted and discussed it:

With the utmost sincerity, I recommend deleting this and erasing all known copies.

There have been credible reports that they had initiated an emergency ascent, though I am not sure if this is a certainty. If it's true, they were definitely aware that they were in serious danger long enough to make and enact that decision.

I really don't disagree with you, but if we want democrats to show up and vote, this is not the attitude that will make it happen. People largely believe their votes don't matter. If the candidate is bad anyway, why even bother? I'm not saying this negativity is the only (or biggest) problem, but it is very discouraging.

Let's get better candidates where we can, but we need to go full speed with the best we have. If democrat voter turnout was better, there would be no contest, and maybe we could start having a real dialogue about improvements instead of just fighting to avoid more far right extremism.

The 19-year-old reportedly told family he was terrified. It was Father's Day and his father is very interested in the Titanic, so he went anyway. He was just trying to impress and relate to his father.

Good news: it is not iOS only. I'm not sure why the poster put that in the title. It is going to be cross-platform. The beta sign-ups are evenly split between platforms. @hariette has posted about this a few times.

Neither, though it behaves a bit like a mirror. It is a Twitter client that fetches data server-side.

Because of how fragmented this platform is, there isn't a universal answer. Some links will work in one client but not another. Fixing this will require a lot more coordination than is currently happening.

That would be cool, but he's been pretty clear that it is going to be the end of Apollo. It's a very complex application with a Reddit-specific backend service and lots of other assumptions that would just not work here. Maybe some of the UI/UX could be reused, but it would probably be easier to recreate it from scratch than to adapt the existing app.
