Per The Verge:

When asked if Reddit will remove the protesting messages [nb: "fuck /u/spez"], spokesperson Courtney Geesey-Dorr pointed to the r/Place canvas rules. One of those rules says that “targeted hate or harassment of private individuals (including mods and admin) and protected groups are violations of our [content] policy (Rule 1) and will be removed. In addition, posts, comments, and imagery that are hateful, graphic, sexually-explicit, and / or offensive are violations of our policy (Rule 6) and will be removed.”

At least I don't see any games I play in those screenshots. Am seeing a lot of the same designs I remember from last year, though, which really drives home why it should be a rare event. How boring.

Half the board is still covered in it though :)

Seasoned_Greetings ,

There might be a couple reasons for that.

One, they could be leaving the milder stuff as a plausible deniability thing. Like, “Of course we aren’t steamrolling the negative stuff, look how much is there!” while quietly removing the worse stuff.

Two, and this one is my favorite, with the mods on bad terms with the admins, the admins ironically just may not have the tools to keep up with the rest of the community and are settling for just erasing the worst stuff.

Also, I saw a theory yesterday that bringing back r/place could be a baiting tactic to take names and quietly ban the users who still have ill will towards the admins. If that’s the case, they may be leaving that stuff up intentionally and taking names…

Remember the hat thing? The one where you went around giving out hats to people and corrupting comments? That was fun. Can we do that here?

And it's still less shit than Snaps. It's the giant douche and turd sandwich situation with this stuff.

Blackberries will grow in anything. They are evil

UnfortunateShort ,

For real. If you hate someone, plant blackberry bushes on their property. Once they’ve spread, you will never get rid of them.

Okalaydokalay ,

I just planted one in my yard. I certainly hope this is the case! 😊

My yard is empty. I’ve been wondering how this plant has been surviving. SoCal temps and I water it every other day and it’s still thriving.

AdmiralRob ,

My hatred of blackberries is unending. I’m angry enough that I have to mow the grass, but there is nothing I loathe more than having to regularly take a machete to the encroaching mass of thorny monsters that are invading my yard and attempting to make it uninhabitable by my children. If I was given the option to make any species of any living thing immediately extinct, I would choose blackberries without a moment’s hesitation, and then throw a party to celebrate the oppression I’ve been freed from.

thisbenzingring ,

I took back a half acre of those things. Believe me when I say that I am 100% with you. I wish a blight wipes them out so much. If you are able, digging up the ball root makes removing them easier. They are almost impossible to eradicate but if you can get the root ball out, they are totally weakened. I bought a pawn shop weed eater and those plastic blades. I went through so many blades and the weed eater died a sad long death.

I hate those plants like nothing else

Amazing how well it blends in with the tree bark. Really cool insect.

It’s the admins, people either hate spez or don’t give AF.

Probably not a good idea to eat them 😕

Best to leave them for the birds and squirrels.

Yeah plump up the birds and squirrels and then eat those.

What’s wrong with the pissberries?

olympicyes , to linux in Flathub let its TLS certificate expire.

www.flathub.org is using Let’s encrypt. Their certs only last 90 days so you need a script to make sure they are updated and pushed to your site. flathub.org uses Globalsign which lasts for 13 months. My guess is they don’t have a process for reconciling the two types of end dates.

It’s not hard to automate? I remember when Firefox had this same flub, lol

Unquote0270 ,

Even just manually, how hard is it to put a reminder in a calendar somewhere? I’ve never understood how/why this happens, it’s really but difficult.

Molecular0079 ,

You don’t even need to automate. Certbot comes with a systemd timer called certbot-renew.timer which does this for you.

Lazerbeams2 , to lemmyshitpost in Kind of surprised me that stealth bombers showing up as bee sized objects still weren't immediately sus for their speed

Imagine seeing a tiny, fast speck that can easily just be static or a small piece of trash on the wind after days of nothing. You probably wouldn’t immediately report it either. And that’s assuming you noticed it at all. Bees are very small, especially when you’re looking at them with a device meant to detect planes

betterdeadthanreddit ,

Depending on the scenario, the task could be complicated further due to things like jamming. Might be less like spotting a bee flying around a garden and more like trying to hear a whisper at a rock concert.

@mrmanager@lemmy.today avatar

Wow. There is very small margin for overflowing here…

oatscoop ,

There’s probably an overflow spillway for the whole pond out of frame.

Shou ,

Correct. That bridge is meant to flex on water control. This is near a place that is susceptible to river floods.

Don’t worry the Dutch know what they’re doing when it comes to water.

Ryumast3r ,

That just adds to the fun.

KeyserSoze61 , to retrogaming in Last ball y'all. It's the Satan's fawlt, I tell ya! Say AMEN y'all!

Easily one of my favorite games of all time. I had played it on an emulator for a number of years, and the. I found it at a flea market for $0.50 about 15 years ago and played it on my TG express an absurd amount.

Sad that I sold it (and all my TG stuff), but I have a Miyoo Mini coming soon to hopefully scratch that itch soon.

FinalBoy1975 OP ,

I wasted my Sega Genesis non-life on this game so many hours you would just call me a loser. The console was my mom’s, so when I went away to college I didn’t have it with me. Every vacation I returned home, I’d just play this and see if I could get a billion points. My mom had the game genie, so she beat it artificially. I refuse the genie. You can find this game anywhere. It was not popular back in the day. It’s one of those cheap games you got at K-Mart for whatever, maybe a couple dollars. It’s definitely like The Adventures of Lolo was. A cheap ass game. Not one of the titles that was overpriced and cool kids arcade category. It was a cheapy game. One of the first of its kind, along with the Lolo games. No sooner it was released, it was in the bargain bin at the cheapy department store.

Cool!

Plus, this would be great in the c/bugs community!

Thanks! I’ll cross post.
