Chetzemoka,

We hit dangerous wet bulb globe temperatures yesterday in Massachusetts. Nowhere is safe.

Chetzemoka,

I hope Reddit isn't going to send @rmayayo some stupid bill for the app still working

Chetzemoka,

No, no there are literally tankies. Lemmy.ml the ml means marxist-leninist and lemmygrad.ml is just straight up tankie CCP apologists

Chetzemoka,

I mean, that's exactly my point though. People seem to be knee jerk assuming that the "leftist" accusations against the .ml instances are standard issue right wing hyperbole against progressive liberals and that's not the case. It's just as much that progressives are complaining because we have no interest in associating with tankies.

Chetzemoka,

I'll be perfectly honest though: The only reason I support pursuing research into biological immortality is because I highly doubt that it's actually medically possible. Extended human lifespans and improved quality of life/slowed aging I'm sure are possible. But bodies are going to wear out, no matter what we do. And bodies will always be subject to accidental injury no matter what we do. I think the chances that we'll be able to fully regenerate or mitigate accidents and simple wear and tear are pretty low. (I honestly think the chances that we'll completely eliminate infection is also pretty low. Bacteria and viruses are just smarter and faster than we are.)

What was the subreddit that represented to you the best example of downspiral of quality? To me it was /r/dataisbeautiful (kbin.social) en

At first it was all about presenting data in an original looking way. In the end it was about pushing political ideas in your throat using a plain bar graph. It was not about sharing something interesting you found but about taking advantage of a captive audience.

Chetzemoka,

That was an interesting downfall to witness that taught me a lot about how Reddit really operates. I'm the beginning, it was actually a quality alternative to the generic front page repost subs like /damnthatsinteresting.

Then the instant it hit 1 million subscribers, the whole mod team changed, people like Turtle suddenly appeared in the name of "helping out with a sub that grew too fast for existing mods," and within a few days it was just another trash repost sun.

Chetzemoka,

The thing about TIHI, interestingasfuck, SLPT are that they regularly made r/all. Content hitting the front page means views for Reddit. So it's less about the sub's specific userbase, and more that those "main" subs have broad user appeal that brings people to Reddit in the first place.

And currently they're all shuttered. Which means less content on r/all, which decreases the general audience appeal of Reddit.

Quality management 👍

Chetzemoka,

There's no treatment that's close to a cure, but my symptoms are improved by a combination of high dose Coenzyme Q10 and creatine, along with Mestinon for orthostatic intolerance. I'm working with a team at Brigham & Women's in Boston, led by Dr. David Systrom, that is exploring the idea of mitochondrial dysfunction as the underlying pathophysiology. Last year I participated in a phase I clinical trial of a new drug targeting a mitochondrial receptor, but we're still waiting for those trial results to be released.

This particular team is doing invasive cardiopulmonary exercise testing (iCPET) as diagnostics, if you've not had that explored yet. It didn't give me much in the way of treatment options beyond what I mentioned above, but at least it's given me some semblance of hard data to provide legitimacy when explaining my condition to people.

I only mention because I'm not particularly active in the ME/CFS circles because of the high volume of disappointing red herrings, so I'm not sure how well known this path of inquiry is.

Chetzemoka,

Listen, there are so many legitimate criticisms of Reddit, no one needs to make things up. This happens every year in June. Somebody posts about Tiananmen, some automod or real mod removes it, someone screams "Reddit" is censoring things.

There are tons of posts about Tiananmen that are still up after years. Tencent owns a small minority stake in Reddit.

Chetzemoka,

I got the exact same treatment for "report abuse" for reporting a comment copying bot. Like, ok. If you want Reddit to be nothing but spam bots parroting each other, have at it
