No see if we flood space we won't need spaceships we can just sail our normal ships out there

[King Zultan]

At that point... why not pump the pollutants into space??

Why do the easy thing when we can do the difficult thing?

Also because of this.

Think of the money we'll save!

Distant wildfires have blotted out the sky and made air quality the worst its been in recent memory. The only good to come of this is that I can now believe I'm in one of those gritty shows that take place in South America because the sky and everything else has that orange filter

"As you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back into you", thought I as I watched a dude look down the container, mouth gaping as wide open as the 2,4x5x2,5 metal box without a roof.

Bye bye Reddit! Maybe cutting off third-party apps that many people rely on for accessibility wasn't such a good idea?



Watching the ensuing power vacuum between rivals will be fun. Maybe one will be worth for my terminally-online self to sink hundreds of hours into.

Apparently they started charging outrageous prices for 3rd-party apps so there's a mass blackout. This likely results in the fall of Reddit.

I'm gunna be pessimistic and say that I kinda doubt that this is the end of reddit, just because people are pretty fickle... I'm pretty sure reddit can outlast the protest so long as there isn't a viable alternative for people too swap to. And as these places become more and more popular and part of peoples lives it becomes harder for a replacement to arise and so I sorta doubt that there's a website that can just replace reddit quickly at least.

AI. Reddit have been providing's its API for free, through which anyone could access reddit vast DB of conversation. Recently they learned that AI companies were downloading it wholesale to train its AI systems, realized that their data is valuable and put restrictions on non personal use.

They don't even have to try to outlast the blackout - it's a mere two days long. A drop in the bucket.

For most subs. Some major subs are permanent.

Honestly dumb, all of it should have been permanent.

As far as can tell a two day protest won't make a big company give a shit, and if they do lose members because of it they won't care because they probably have way more that won't leave.
