Do you mean Calibre?
Bots are indeed a problem, but at the same time so are the huge swaths of users dedicated to a single users whim. When one person with enough pulls says “I want to take over this entire area of the canvas” and it happens in minutes?… it ruins the experience. Bots are just a way for this to happen without the following.
The only issue this would truly cause in the long run is a bit of admin work. There are and were plenty of scabs willing to take over unmoderated subs. Sure, the quality of those subs would have suffered, but Reddit never cared about that beyond what essentially boiled down to “don’t let “bad” content stay up.” Beyond that, mods could do whatever they wanted for the most part.
That is honestly impressive. I can confidently say I’ve only owned one wired headset for a decade, and it’s the one I use for gaming so it never leaves my office.
Everything else has either broken, or been lost. Though I fully admit, serviceable wireless buds would be a thing of beauty. IIRC there are people out there actively working on the problem (other than the companies explicitly aiming for them to be a consumable forever.)
I’ve owned three Bluetooth headsets in total. The first I lost, the second is now my wife’s, and the third I still use. I wouldn’t call them disposable, but I’ll agree they are easier to lose.
Something a wired set of anything can’t give me is absolute freedom to move my head and walk away from my phone. I will never willingly go back to wired for anything other than gaming.
They did have a dongle for it. Annoying, but not insurmountable by any means.
Honestly? For all the bitching when Apple first removed it, I hadent and haven’t used wired headphones for a long while. I had Bluetooth headphones long before then.
Not in the slightest.
Love me some LoZ! Very well made, saved!
The acoustic sweet spot… obviously.
No shame in fearing firefighters.
I get where you’re coming from, but keep in mind that at the time this happened, there were 2 people working on the code, and likely only a handful paying.
TRMM was originally a personal project, at the beginning of which it makes some sense to intermingle things on the “official” site. I know I’ve done similar, but my projects never take off to the point that people are doing an audit. And I know I would absolutely make that exact exe for personal use.
Keep in mind, the only reason the version with a crypto miner was found was because someone went digging around. No one was ever linked to the installer, no one had ever downloaded it by mistake, no one had ever had it stealthily installed without consent.
I get that it’s a scary concept, like when brave was found to be injecting affiliate links into normal traffic. But in this case it wasn’t even something put in prod. It was found by accident, in a place that wasn’t doing any harm, and was never found in the wild.
Seems like a lot to get worked up over.
As for the discord chat, I’m not surprised. Having been in their discord for about as long as that “scandal” has been around: The reason his responses were fumbling? He’s just a hobbyist that’s managed to get one of his projects into a good enough place to make money off of. Are you expecting a PR team level of response?
Yeah, it happens on “hot” when you get low enough, I’ve noticed.
This is a three year old post, friend.
I’m willing to bet they’ll care. When your community is vocal enough about such an issue to crowd out others? Yeah, that’s not a good sign for their investment. And it’s all directed at a single person.
To be fair, the mods of r/place are admins are they not?
I feel the need to point out, there is porn on both instances. Just more on lemmynsfw.
Oddly I can see neither this reply, nor my original comment, but can reply from my inbox within Voyager.
