Ex-Redditor since 2012, now living my best life on the Fediverse! I figured it was time to ditch the karma and embrace the bugginess 🐛

  • Here are few things to consider:

    • The vast majority of nuclear waste is not highly radioactive. Over 90% of it is low-level waste. As we progresses we’re finding better ways to manage and reduce this or even recycling it.
    • The Fukushima incident though unfortunate and a reminder to improve safety standards didn’t result in any direct fatalities due to radiation. In fact, the amount of radioactivity released into the ocean was 0 when you look at the vastness of the Pacific and the dilution. The oceans already contain a considerable amount of natural radiation and the added amount from the incident, though not better than nothing is a drop in the ocean size bucket.
    • Air pollution from coal plants contributes to numerous premature deaths yearly with some estimates in the hundreds of thousands globally. This is far more concerning than the potential risks posed by nuclear energy especially when managed with modern safety standards. Just see Fukushima.
    • As for nuclear plants being military targets, any infrastructure can become a target in wartime, dams, chemical plants or any other energy installations. The key is to ensure safety and security measures.





  • I feel like there was an unwritten agreement between extension developers and Google/Youtube. Youtube allowed ad-blocking for those who wanted it, and in exchange, ad-blockers didn’t hide that users were blocking ads. By doing this, Youtube would break this agreement. I think there will always be a way around it, but currently, as it’s still working, no alternative that I know of has been developed.

    I played Diablo 4 until the end of the campaign, but after that, it became boring. The dungeons are repetitive, with everything looking the same. The dullest thing is the level scaling. Instead of having a sense of progression and being overpowered, every mob are at the same level as you. Additionally, the only effective way to play the game is to copy someone else’s build…

    It doesn’t feel like a game made with love and passion but more like a mathematical formula that maximizes time played over enjoyment.

    That game is pretty, but that’s pretty much it.









  • On my end, r/anime_titties has the most recent post from 10 days ago. The same goes for r/mildlyinteresting, and there is a banner asking if the sub features adult content.

    Reddit has become fully corrupted, and it will only get worse. Even if you don’t care about third-party apps, it’s only a matter of time before their greed comes for your favorite subreddit or the next feature that they can exploit for money.

    Even the latest features on Reddit, like the avatar as NFT, Reddit Premium, or the new design, are just here to extract more money from us.

    I will not share my data or use the website of a company that shows so little concern for what their users want.
