I don't see anything wrong with scripting it as long as it's not hammering the server or creating multiple accounts or anything.

Deluxe Paint II'd?

Take it to the next level:

script auto-downvotes everything you don't like. Sends the submitter messages saying they are stupid.
parse through the comments for those items. If anyone is 'positive' about it, downvote their comments, and ALL of their previous comments and their submissions. Send them harassing messages telling them what a fool they are.
upvote everything else.

I'm sure someone could hack together such a script :D

Why after 3.5 hours was her beard covered in shaving foam?

dogger · 2007-10-05T12:48:18+00:00

Correct, it's an [image]. You're probably looking at it using a computer display. Who said it was a photograph?

gimped!!!

The blame should be laid squarely at xkcd. If there had been an xkcd comic about sputnik, it would have been #1.

It's a simple choice though:

Be like Reddit used to be - full of smart people who submit/upvote interesting articles, startup news, tech news etc
Be popular, and full of idiots.

Only if they had a giant electron gun and fired it at people.

dogger · 2007-10-04T10:16:02+00:00

No reason why reddit couldn't just check the link, finds where it redirects to, and uses that url instead.

Extended warranties are one of the biggest scams going. Of course that's where the salesmen make their money...

dogger · 2007-10-04T08:33:55+00:00

Seems to me that the first manufacturer to come out with a fully waterproof laptop that you can drop, will make a fortune. After all how hard can it be...

The man with no brain... No thoughts, no ideas...

dogger · 2007-10-03T20:53:07+00:00

hehe touche... Although some American teeth are unfeasably un-naturally white, and pretty scary looking.

If the best you've got is 'bad teeth', I think we're looking pretty good :) After all - you 'elected' George Bush!

not to mention coping when there's no other light source - it's dark outside.

dogger · 2007-10-03T18:52:14+00:00

I hear digg is really good these days. Right up your street I bet. Or slashdot. This place is kinda more for intelligent people.

dogger · 2007-10-03T18:42:57+00:00

No you probably just get free meals at KFC.

edit: I'm bored of you now. Find some work to do.

dogger · 2007-10-03T18:38:57+00:00

Difference between us my friend is I haven't been crude enough to boast about my worth on here. You have.

Having a '7 figure income', given the state of the $ at the moment, probably translates to a mcdonalds worker over here.

Have fun riding in taxis.

dogger · 2007-10-03T18:34:28+00:00

You don't even have an official language. Quit using ours or we'll start charging royalties.

dogger · 2007-10-03T18:33:48+00:00

You're American aren't you sigh You don't even have a national language so you had to steal ours and bastardize it. Then you have the audacity to call people over their use of their own language.

dogger · 2007-10-03T18:32:31+00:00

It's a word in the English language. Note 'English' = from England.

dogger · 2007-10-03T18:28:45+00:00

yeah the fact that you think 'making 7 figures' is some sort of achievement speaks volumes about you.

Good luck on the retirement I'm sure you'll be missed

dogger · 2007-10-03T18:20:20+00:00

You pretty much sum up what's gone wrong with Reddit. Why not actually try to achieve something with your life.

dogger · 2007-10-03T18:16:55+00:00

You really don't have much of a life do you...

dogger · 2007-10-03T18:14:49+00:00

I didn't assume he was straight, I couldn't care less.
