  • saw this earlier from an old twitter tab, thought my browser had been hijacked with some extension. what an amateurish logo, looks like what a tiny business puts up on their wordpress when they have no designers & are only making a logo because they have to, definitely not what i'd expect from one of the biggest social media sites in the world. elon has been fixated on the whole x thing for literal decades now & that's the best logo he came up with?

  • welcome! i created my account over a month ago but i agree, this is the most civil & "cozy" site i've seen in a while since small niche blogs & forums were actually a thing. places like this have been rare af since the late 2010s, so it's refreshing to see such a place with this many users

  • you'd be surprised, I've heard from other reddit users that entire discord servers, wikis, & other communities would first start from reddit group chats so apparently there were a lot super involved in it. one of the big community partnered discord servers I was in told me the only reason they were on discord at first was because reddit chat made it hard to search old messages

  • Where did all the Sriracha go? Sauce shortage hiking prices to $70 in online markets

    跳过

  • yeah, i mentioned them fucking over underwood in my post lol. i wouldn't say it's solely because of that situation, as climate change is the reason their various cheaper suppliers don't have as many reds to sell in the first place, but losing underwood basically lost them their safety net for situations like this

  • Where did all the Sriracha go? Sauce shortage hiking prices to $70 in online markets

    跳过

  • Wasn’t there a Sriracha shortage this time last year too?

    yeah, there was also one in 2020, & a lot of people (myself included) had trouble getting it in parts of 2021 too. huy fong's had supply issues for years now & it doesn't seem like they're ever getting out of it with how high demand sriracha is

    Because I bought a bunch of it and then realized the post-underwood Sriracha was not the same. It’s too sweet now with not enough heat.

    agreed, that combined with the insane prices & the fact that hf sriracha is spending more time out of stock than in is the reason i'm giving up on the brand & moving on to other sauces, the last 2 bottles of huy fong we had cost ~$40 a few months ago, & we all agreed it wasn't really worth the price at all

  • same here, the optimist (& diablo fan) in me is hoping that microsoft/xbox will make them a good enough company to where i feel comfortable giving them my money again, but the cynical part of my mind is just telling me that they'll probably just go "welp, kotick's gone, diablo 4 on game pass everyone!" then go "hands off" & just ignore the company aside from uploading their games to gamepass & funding them, like they did with arkane. hope i'm wrong though

  • good fandom sites are the ugliest & most bloated sites i've ever seen & used, & the only site that i've seen use 25-50% of the CPU (a wiki page with a lot of videos &/or gallery pages will do this every single time) while ublock is actively blocking ads. like, wtf

  • yeah the new blood in the internal microsoft teams love rust now, some of the windows team guys have been consistently talking about an internal shift towards rust on twitter since last year. the rust win32k drivers & userspace libraries actually dropped in rs_prerelease back in may, but for whatever reason the kernel wouldn't actually use the new rust codepaths even if you loaded & enabled them

  • using discord is morally lazy

    跳过

  • man, as someone who used to be so into foss/privacy i refused to use anything that i couldn't compile/host & giving out my gpg key to friends, & someone who used to always make charged, sweeping generalizations like the title of this article, reading this just made me remember why people didn't like to talk tech with me. i was so focused on always spouting why every app/software/os everyone used was "evil" (with poorly thought out & overcharged arguments, because i was coming from a place of anger & "justice" rather than logic) that i became insufferable to have a conversation with. i'm not gonna knock the author too much because i know it comes from a place of passion & morals, but this person has really fallen into the trap of radical black & white thinking that plagues the field of foss so much.

    op, if you are the author of the post (or if the author happens to be reading), my advice to you if you want to reach people better would be to avoid generalizing/judging (& any non-logical statements at all) when advocating for foss/against propietary services. always blame the companies, not the users, because most users are just uninformed. remember that software is not a political or moral issue to most people, it's just a tool & they don't research or know anything about it beyond that. all that headline is doing is losing the target audience - no one likes to be told they're "morally lazy" for simply texting their friends & not knowing about issues in an app. if you are going to post sweeping judgements like this, then at least make sure the article is at least finished before you throw it out there, or else it's gonna leave a really bad taste in people's mouth.

    on a positive note, the rest of the site is really cool; reminds me of the site i used to have up in high school. i really liked the "places" & "strong women" sections on the abyss page.
