Morning coffee.

I block communities that routinely show up that I am not interested in seeing and use a monkey script to block instances of no value to me.

No, simply because I don’t “have to” have content. If Lemmy lacks interesting content, I go outside for a while.

Well, I use a fake name and an email used only for Duolingo, so… ok.

I remember as a kid, seeing a commercial for a credit card where the clown of the ad tried to use cash, inconveniencing the mob behind him and it really stuck with me how unapologetic credit companies were when training their consumers and debt carriers.

Solution. Reverse the CAPTCHA reaction. If it’s solved, it’s a bot, if not, it’s a frustrated human.

Doing something you know will result in a negative(in our case here, losing a huge level of activity, participation, stability, etc).

The term soaring is pretty relative in this case. It’s still completely unknown to the majority of the world. It’s just like Lemmy, where the very few rigid types that absolutely couldn’t stand for one particular thing that happened to their social network will do anything, including cutting their nose off to spite their face rather than continue to use it. That’s why we’re all here and it’s why nobody else but us are coming.

I guess I fucking don’t.

Not offended at all. This behavior is completely expected. Don’t share your terrible experience until someone else is talking about how your post-employer misled their viewers, then pile on when it will get clicks.

Perhaps you require more ragebait?

If so, you’re stupid, your thought is stupid and your choice in underwear is stupid.

I see, thanks for the clarification.

I probably wouldn’t have been standing at all, seeing as how I have no clue what “gamergate” is.

“They’re super-terrible to work for and I’ve just coincidentally chose this period of the company’s social implosion to quit and speak up. This is definitely not a bandwagon move. #metooLMG”

Isn’t there a /c/drama this shit could be dropped in? Least technical article ever.

What did Gizmodo think might happen instead? That everyone, including those that were never impacted by 3rd party app changes, would just abandon the site, leaving it without users? “Peak journalism”.

I use both Windows and linux daily. I don’t have an issue with either.

It really depends on where you live. For instance, in Western NC, I was completely left to my own devices on the trail systems. local IMBA group asked that I just keep track of my hours so they could add to the volunteer sheet that they turned into the forestry service. I was given the ok to take anything out I wanted; chainsaws, mowers, weedeaters, sickles, etc. In my new area, it’s more structured so I joined a FB group for the local club and asked them if I could do maintenance on the trail closest to me. They gave me the go-ahead so I go out to that trail when I want to do work.

I always try to find the most unused trail in the area to work on as I prefer the solitude when being out in the woods.

Trail maintenance. I spent over a decade doing work on neglected trails in western NC. Hours upon hours of hiking, weed eating, sawing, taking, etc. It was more exercise than biking the same trails.

I’m struggling with the loss of the mountain biking I’ve loved for a long time. I’m trying various changes out to keep some biking in my life. I’m biking more slowly and for diminished distances. Also my wife bought me an emtb that I’ve been trying out on the trails. Less fatigue means I’m .asking less mistakes while out.

I hope you find an outlet you enjoy. The loss is truly life altering.
