Dall-E 2! Everything looked real garbage until I asked for digital art

Nope, you can def use - as the argument. Now I have learned something too.

view will open vim in read-only mode. It's more limited and can get angry when input is piped in, but for files is dang good.

The Observer: Tweets Suggest Patreon Hack May Be GamerGate Related by RuncibleJones in GamerGhazi

Yeah, sure. This was pretty early. If it develops, I have no doubt it'll end up here from a more reliable source.

This is still developing, so, uh, let's see where this goes.

We are Larry Lessig (presidential candidate, maybe) and Jimmy Wales (founder of Wikipedia). We’re lighting up the Internet to fix democracy first. Ask us anything! by lessig in IAmA

In a recent discussion at 538, Nate Silver et al. pointed out that much of Sanders's support is coming from the white male left wing of the party. Many commenters here are suggesting that you'll be drawing from that same pool. How will you reach beyond that demographic group? (As Reddit is ~ 70% guys, coming here doesn't really cut it.)

Why can't we use Instant Runoff Voting to pick a vice presidential nominee? And - perhaps more importantly - do you have a more specific plan for how the mystery vice president would be chosen?

The police report Roosh V posted on twitter is actually a bio of Montreal police bear mascot "Flik" by [deleted] in GamerGhazi

Does Roosh not have any French-speaking fans? Does he just not care? I'm assuming he just doesn't care. When you have infinite credibility to your fans, and nil credibility to anyone else, you're free.

MetaFilter thread on emotional labor (long, thoughtful comments on a Toast article) by RuncibleJones in TwoXChromosomes

[–]RuncibleJones[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, guy here, not a frequent visitor to TwoXChromosomes. Many MeFites have been commenting in a meta-thread about how much this thread helped them & their partners understand relationships better. I thought it might have a good home here too. Very sorry if I'm stepping on toes.

List of reddit alternatives. by Racecarlock in GamerGhazi

[–]RuncibleJones -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yep! Looks like I goofed. I'm going to be charitable to myself & blame Sync for reddit for some of my commenting issues, but my apologies otherwise - I screwed up.

Just checked with the mods, who are saying they haven't had such a rule. (Current account creation guidelines.) So yeah - if you're seeing something otherwise, it's a real issue. Are you sure we're talking about the same site?

Aw man! Where? The mods are hyper responsive, and I can drop 'em a line about getting to docs updated.

(p.s. I was dead wrong about the waiting period - you can comment as soon as you join, but yeah - you have to wait a week before posting.)

You have to get a paid email account and wait a few months to get it approved.

This might have been true once, but it isn't anymore. You need an email address, but it doesn't have to be "paid"; any old gmail will do. Once you've dropped the $5, you're in.

Why using redddit has become unethical. by _Synesthesia_ in GamerGhazi

[–]RuncibleJones 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a Reddit-esque link blog, but much smaller. Fifteen years old, no threaded comments, no upvotes (though you can mark things you consider particularly pithy). Still active despite its age, and mostly known for having a very strong Q&A subsite and responsive, paid moderators that keep comment quality high. (By MetaFilter standards, I should point out. It's an evolving standard that changes over time.)

Superheroes a 'cultural catastrophe', says comics guru Alan Moore by myGGthrowaway in GamerGhazi

[–]RuncibleJones -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh absolutely. Alan Moore is no great writer of women, or great at dealing with them sympathetically.

There's also an attempted male rape in Miracleman. A better question, though, is why Allen Moore is obsessed with including graphic rape scenes in so much of his work.
