Reddit has ads?
RedReader(Android app, FOSS, in f-droid and play store) has no advertisements.
You can use Firefox or Microsoft Edge to get extension support(ublock.) there’s other options as well. Via(Android) is really lightweight and has built in adblocking.
Theres oldlander extension for old.reddit.com.
You can also use the ublock element picker to filter the mobile pop up… Or clear your cookies (or disable them in site settings.)
If I wanted to see Reddit content then I would go to Reddit.
This is a shit idea, IMO. I actively block such content.
Emerald. Evergreen. Eucalyptus. Envy. Enamor. Endive. Everything. Everyone. Everywhere. Earth.
Green checks out.
They make EV that make vroom vroom noises. Come on. You really missing the lack of torque?
So many snowflakes here. Especially the lemmy admins. Piefed FTW.
There’s many bots doing that for some subs…
Oldlander extension and old.reddit.com is pretty good. I prefer RedReader, though.
Internal combustion engines. Fuck ICE. Heh. That’s a nice double entender.
“Most toxic” depends on who’s annoyed this week, but there are a few recurring mental habits that reliably rot discourse without even trying.
My biggest pet peeve is probably moral absolutism, often disguised as clarity. That’s the mindset where everything gets forced into clean categories of pure good vs pure evil, with zero tolerance for the rainbow of nuance.
Next up is identity-as-proof. If someone is in Group X, then they must believe Y, and any counterexample is treated as an anomaly or betrayal. It saves effort because you don’t have to think, just sort people into bins and react accordingly.
Then there’s algorithmic certainty syndrome, which is more modern and a bit more subtle. People get used to feeds that reinforce their priors so efficiently that disagreement starts to feel like statistical noise. So instead of updating beliefs, they just escalate confidence. Nothing says “epistemic humility” like being completely wrong with confidence.
Another one is transactional morality: “If I’m right, I’m allowed to be as harsh as I want.” Which turns every disagreement into a license for cruelty, as if correctness automatically comes with behavioral immunity.
And underneath a lot of it is something simpler and more disconcerting: comfort with not understanding things before judging them. People are so eager to tell others what they are by labeling them and defining them rather than simply talking about themselves (you… vs. I…)
The first CD I ever bought was The Matrix soundtrack.
These days I’ve been listening to Tycho a lot. I like all their albums. Awake may be my favorite.
Daft Punk - Interstella 5555 is magical, especially the anime.
Orbital makes some wonderful albums as well.
Autocorrect issues?
Surely you meant Modeselektor.
John 13:34-35
I read a book about this subject. The author argued it was a new commandment, not an additional one. Because if you love one another then you would never break the prior ten commandments. Makes sense.
But Jesus loved hanging out with whores.
That looks like aluminum…
Don’t smoke out of aluminum.
Good things come to those who wait.
You can be anything you want.
Phase-Order Candy Prism.
Picture a small edible prism made of ultra-thin layers of sugar glass and gelatinized starch, but the trick is in the internal structure of each layer contains flavor “micro-reservoirs” embedded in lipid membranes tuned to dissolve at different osmotic thresholds, not time.
Find equally awkward friends.
Hopefully a hell of a lot worse. Hopefully so bad people can’t afford gasoline. Imagine the fresh air. Looking forward to it.
*with regular maintenance
EV are almost maintenance free. EV drivetrains can easily thrive a million kilometers with minimal maintenance. The batteries will likely die first.
