all they need to do is get you to install a sketchy browser extension and then anytime you generate a password on ddg they've captured it. No man in the middle necessary. Unlike generating a pw with your pw manager, then inserting it with your pw manager or just typing it into the field (which shouldn't be accessible to extensions on any appropriately coded site).

If it wasn’t for Vail and Alterra, the majority of ski resorts wouldn’t exist at all anymore. Covid would have killed most of them off, just due to the closures alone. Being distributed across the planet allows them to distribute the losses as well. And they’re a huge proponent of fighting against global warming.

And no clue where you’re buying day passes, but it’s absolutely no where near $800, what a bunch of bs. I haven’t bought a season pass in years and I went up earlier this year and spent $150 total for four days. There’s no parking fee (where in the world are you skiing that requires paying a parking fee???), getting my board waxed was like $20 and an entire meal another $20.

Don’t fucking rent in the mountains, that’s not even a hard thing to understand, rent down at Christy’s and it’s also like $20-30. Here’s Park Meadows rates for this Saturday.

And for sources on the big massive companies actually saving resorts?

What an absolute load of crock from the author.

Edit: might have been three days, not four. And also might have been 2022. Time makes no sense anymore.

They discuss all of them.

There’s a mod for five?!?

Kagi. It costs money but there are no ads and the results are literally miles better than any other search engine in the past 5 years easy. I thought it was a bit ridiculous until I tried the free trial and I’m hooked. The results are just that much better and there’s way more features.

So are you saying that Facebook Groups aren’t social media either? That’s a forum like site. Tumblr isn’t social media either?

Correct, facebook groups is not facebook. It's forum software hosted at the same url as facebook. Same as Facebook Marketplace. Marketplace is not facebook. It's craigslist. It just happens to be hosted at the same url as facebook. Just like StackOverflow Chat is not question and answer software even though it's literally hosted at the same url. Just like your phone is not social media even though you both create communities on it and communicate with people on it. If you don't understand how servers work behind the scenes then maybe that doesn't make a lot of sense to you, but a url is nothing more than a sign to put on the front of your building. You can then teleport the user to anywhere else in the universe and it can have absolutely nothing to do with the original location at all. This is the framework of the internet.

Lemmy and Reddit both fall under these definitions.

literally every single website on the entire planet meet those definitions.

Not sure what you mean by this… Reddit has had chats and PMs for a long time.

You cannot interact with your followers. I didn't say anything about communicating with individuals that you see around the site. You have no way to know who your followers are you have no way to message your followers. You have no way to interact with your followers. Reddit is a forum software, exactly like every forum software before it.

Neither Lemmy nor Reddit are anonymous. They’re pseudonymous. Something like 4chan where you don’t even need an account is anonymous.

accounts have nothing to do with anonymity, maybe you're using some layperson's version of anonymity, but anonymous means it does not require real information. reddit and lemmy are anonymous.

Yeah I don’t really think they meant actually clicking an exe file, it’s just that’s a lot shorter than saying “click the shortcut in your start menu”. It’s a meme, not a diatribe. But yeah it’s a joke so we can just move on. Thanks for the conversation.

Wow. You’ve tried a lot more than me. I just met a nurse in the airport and she said to try this drug she administers, but I can’t remember the name now… she did send me a link to their website though. But honestly I’m a bit suspicious of stuff like this. https://www.soleohealth.com/chronic-inflammatory-disorder/

But I mean, if you’re desperate then maybe give them a call, idk. Kinda seemed too good to be true, the story she was spinning for me.

Not sure what you mean. You do not need to be a developer to set up CloudFlare’s CSAM detection. You simply have email the NCMEC, get an account, then check a box in CF, input some information about your NCMEC account, and then you’re good to go.

With over 1000 rep on Stack Overflow, you should have access to the First Posts and Late Answers review queues where you can get an idea of well, give it a try to see what's in there. There's a fair bit of people trying to sneak links into new answers to old questions (Late Answers) that having another set of eyes on would help catch before they get too far. Likewise, there's a lot of posts to First Posts where someone could help a new user and take the time to help them make their question better... or if it isn't a good fit for the Q&A format of Stack Overflow flag it for closure.

Those queues were the ones I’m talking about. SO rewards clearing your queue of 40 per day for each queue (maybe that’s different if you have more rep).

Without the gamification of the badges, the participation in community moderation and curation of the material would likely be even less active.

I very much doubt that. Forums for helping others existed for decades before SO and even now a lot of stuff has moved to discord, Reddit, Zulip, and slack and they still have moderation and most people actually get answers to their questions.

I’m saying that OP might not be talking about the 90s. They literally might be talking about windows vista or 7. You have no way of knowing.

Yeah there’s multiple people in here saying that and it seems like maybe they’ve never actually written Ruby. I don’t think Ruby is a good language for writing business apps in, but it’s incredibly easy to read. Way easier than pretty much every single language out there.

Now if you start including shit like rails, sure. But that’s not Ruby. That a framework and just like Spring or Django or Boost or whatever, it has its own semantics and can be incredibly difficult to read. That has nothing to do with the language though.
