Being ignorant, asking me questions, and then disputing the answers when you don't know what you're talking about is not productive. I gave you all the information you need to educate yourself, so leave me alone and stop arguing with me about it.

It seems like the moderators who enjoyed moderating bigger subreddits left the site and all that's left is power trippers who stuck around for the dust to settle so they could seize control and push their agenda.
Municipal/Provincial subreddits are nearly impossible to participate in because of how locked down the replacement mods have made them. The Toronto subreddit is run like a dystopian alternative reality where normal users can't post most news. Stories of crimes being committed is completely banned unless you're an approved poster or it's the cops committing crimes. The mods actively delete posts and then the same story gets re-uploaded by mods or their friends hours later and is allowed to stay up.
Why are you commenting on things you know nothing about and arguing about this with Canadians who actually know what's going on up here? This isn't worth engaging anymore, go to google.com and search for "Canada assault style gun ban" to learn more.
They also don't assault women and apologize for being so forward because if they knew the victim was a reporter they wouldn't have assaulted them.
I have no idea how anyone can have a favourable opinion of Justin Trudeau. He's repeatedly been caught in racist or misogynistic behavior and it blows my mind the number of people who turn a blind eye to it and think he's different.
The way he handled Jody Wilson-Raybould, Jane Philpott, and Celina Caesar-Chavannes speaks volumes of his character and what he really thinks of women. Talk is cheap and actions speak louder than words. You can stand up on a podium and declare you're a feminist a million times but his actions repeatedly contradict that statement. He's no feminist and I don't think he cares about anything except for himself and his image.
Again, you are saying "no they're stated goal was X" but I've never heard them state that. You're going to have to show the receipts because I followed this closely and I have told you _exactly_ why they banned them - it's because of how they look.
I'm so confused now.

When I was heavily into Reddit I'd use RES and get to know people so it felt more like social media. Now that I've deleted my account and sporadically read Reddit it doesn't feel like social media or something I'm addicted to.
They would do it because they make massive margins off hardware. Apple can't build good software and third party iOS devs are a major reason why the iPhone is successful.
Perhaps you were working with people who don't feel the need to talk about how great nuclear is all the time because you all work in the industry and understand that already.
So why do you believe that private corporations should be more powerful than governments and have censorship powers that the government doesn't even have? Twitter, Meta, and Google affect our day to day life and control what we see far more than the government does. Why do you think this is a good situation to be in?
You seem to have no idea what the word micromanagement means either and it seems like you use it to describe any ritual you personally dislike.
If we could clone the brain of someone I hardly think we'd be discussing their vast knowledge of something so insignificant as the NYT. I don't think we should care that much about an AI's vast knowledge of the NYT either or why it matters.
If all these journalism companies don't want to provide the content for free they're perfectly capable of throwing the entire website behind a login screen. Twitter was doing it at one point. In a similar vein, I have no idea why newspapers are complaining about readership while also paywalling everything in sight. How exactly do they want or expect to be paid?
Apple also writes horrible software and breaks perfectly fine APIs with every OS release to eventually force you into hardware upgrades.
Wait, you can't possibly be blaming October 7th partially on Israel's insanely slow response time, can you? What is that sentence even supposed to mean?
A lot of people like this exist though. Toronto has a huge problem where the homeless refuse to go to shelters because they don't want to be told they can't use drugs. So they make the conscious decision to opt out of society and stay on the street.
There is no way to get through to people like this. Even if they had their own place they'd probably OD before the end of the week with all their extra comfort and freedom they have. Some people can't be helped and that needs to be something people are more willing to accept.
As for your friends, popping opioids like candy is a poor decision even if your doctor is prescribing it to you. Intelligent, educated, and capable adults should be held accountable for their own decisions when they turn out to be poor decisions. The opioid crisis is not society's fault.
I think they're _very_ worried and rightfully so. I assume it would be very difficult to cancel an AI.
I can do that and have no problem with it.
Now can you explain why a Canadian shouldn't be able to open their browser and type in www.facebook.com or www.differentnews.com if they want news?
It's a pain to use any of those characters on every device I use so I don't see how any of them could get in the file if I were to adopt this.
I apologize for being off-topic.
9 years later I'm still procrastinating and after reading these comments I'm convinced I'm good for another couple years LOL
I did have a nano though, it broke on me, but it was my company's key. I don't think the same holds for those ones.
I'll admit I have a horrible setup and binge watching 12 random episodes of a new show in one day is a huge pain in the ass but I've decided that's a good thing!
