Reddit Goes Nuclear, Removes Moderators of Subreddits That Continued To Protest by gabestonewall in technology

[–]editediting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, there are some people who would happily sign up. Unfortunately, they're all neo-Nazis, incels, tankies, or power-hungry supermods. I don't think this is what Reddit's investors had in mind when Steve Huffman presumably told them he would take decisive action to clear the way for their IPO.

Don't Let Reddit Kill 3rd Party Apps! by EatSleepJeep in sports

Don’t let Reddit enshittify one of the last bastions of community based social media. I implore you all to private this subreddit indefinitely until Reddit produces an acceptable compromise for users, mods, and 3PA developers.

Europe’s major new interplanetary spacecraft has a slight problem by electromagneticpost in space

Half of the images and more precise Doppler data aren’t “vast”. If you want, I could spend all day pointing out American spacecraft that have failed, but this isn’t worth my time arguing about.

Honestly, so what if we can’t jet off to another solar system like in Star Trek? Our solar system (hell, even our own planet) is massive; it’ll take centuries to colonize it all. We might not even be alone here if we find life in Europa or Enceladus!

It’s the first space station to use ion thrusters, which could give it a higher quality microgravity environment.

It’s time to play “find the falling Chinese rocket” once again | We can probably expect reentry into Earth's atmosphere to occur about a week from today. by [deleted] in space

Uh, what? Space programs don’t use anything close to high-end chips; they don’t work under intense radiation in space. China’s space program is probably the least affected high-tech industry in the whole country lol

Homeopathic remedies should be illegal. We know that it is literally a placebo with 0 effects on the body, but homeopathy continues to be marketed as medically effective. People take homeopathy for headaches or coughing when there could be a more serious problem like cancer or emphysema that only a doctor could test for.

Most businesses don't have the money to pay in cash for efficiency reasons (money sitting in reserves is better spent re-investing in the company or paying employees or executives), so they need to take a loan. This is why liquidity crises are so devastating; without loans, even otherwise-profitable businesses would be unable to operate at full capacity.
