  1. Up and coming person from a small village gets drafted by the government to defend anyone and everyone from the ever growing number of giant monsters. Does so by eating giant meals before each goal.
  2. Small child is orphaned during a fight to seal away evil. She can see phantoms and interacts with them to defeat the once again rising threat of evil.
  3. Get your heart stolen by a dragon, kill him to become the dragon.

I went with a theme around my username. Wolves Den, den.domain.com is my dashboard for heimdall.

It needs marketing for education for it to take off. Currently the type of people that use highlighters are the same using it because it's effective for remembering information, but since it's already effective something "more" effective doesn't mean much.

What you need is to market your scentminders as a tool for new memory making and recall abilities! Lol

My extensive medical research from the show House has shown me that it's because they need to rule out what it's not before they can rule out what it is

I don't think angles are very good for hard drives unfortunately. Make the PC parallel with the table leg?

We are also in a particularly unique location for our universe in terms of being able to view the wider universe. Were we any further center or any further out, we would have much less of an observable universe. Stars would not have shown up in the night sky until the 1970's due to the distance.

Space is dark. We are in a very well lit part of it :)

I know folks that have gone to using the new app though (even knowing what we know now) and I guess that's ok. Their choice and all that.

IMO this is the reason why boycotts don't really work in the age of the Internet. It seems like there are just so many people with access and either too apathetic to try and make change or are simply just ignorant to the situation, whatever it may be.

It was more than a sub to meme on things you/to dislike, it was more like Oh Gosh Why Would This Exist Thanks I Hate It!

Have you ever imagined a bird with teeth? What about a gif of a needle going into an eye? Or maybe a nice chocolate milkshake in a butt-oriented sex toy.

Why do these things exist? Thanks, I hate it.

It had occasionally funny posts, more worth checking once every few months for a laugh rather than being subscribed to.

The difference between Rome and a corporation is that a corporation can now be global.

Over 5 billion people have access to the internet. There is simply no way for all of these people to be informed. Reddit is a prime example of something taking 20 years to get where it is, having a "mass exodus" and being... barely affected (their words, not mine!)

Don't get me wrong, I am tired of it too, but the reality is that we are more people today than we ever have been historically. As a result, a mere 100,000 is both enough to keep a company alive regardless of whether the other 5 billion buy or not.

I'm not suggesting we shouldn't attempt boycotting, just that our tactics need to change for modernity. Boycotting when you and your whole town stopped buying from Joe's Wares worked. Boycotting now that Joe's Wares can make sales online means your town is never getting rid of him, regardless of whether you all never buy from him and actively dissuade others from doing so.

It's a difficult issue. I'm definitely not suggesting we shouldn't attempt boycotting, just that our tactics need to change for modernity. As you said, they are already difficult to accomplish effectively. Even just 50 years ago, you and your whole town stopped buying from Joe's Wares could work. Today, boycotting now that Joe's Wares can make sales online means your town is never getting rid of him, regardless of whether you all never buy from him and actively dissuade others from doing so.

Moreso if Joe's Wares knows they can buy reviews and other scummy tactics to make them look more worthwhile than they are.

That's an interesting snippit, definitely something that feels true to society today still. Similar to how I said is disheartening in how many people are apathetic to a cause, that's a very apt description to what exactly about it becomes so tiring.

For good measure, I agree with your concept in regards to most things - general good deeds, small actions that have cascading effects on the people and the world around you. It's just difficult to find that the intent of boycotts, which is to effectively end a businesses customer stream, is effective with the tools available today.

Well since you mention it, googling things just brings me to reddit threads.

It's frustrating because 1) right now subs that are private are completely lost of information (which is good! But also, sad to lose for why we lost it) and 2) because it just shows results from reddit...

cde, a RedditMigration en

If you're nuking your old reddit content, this might be important. For me, the reddit history visible on the website was far less comprehensive than the API could access.

As a 10+ year redditor, I would sometimes go back through my profile and delete stale or irrelevant content. Deciding to try a faster approach this week, I installed Redact (available at redact dot dev, or on the Google Play store). It lets you bulk delete, or preview things first, which I wanted to do in case there was anything worth preserving.

When scanning posts/comments, it first says it's sorting by new, then hot, then controversial.

The "new" results were the same as I could see on my profile, but then the "hot" and "controversial" scans found page after page of comments that I couldn't see on my u/ page. There were 50 results per page, and I didn't keep an accurate count, but I removed at least 1000 comments, mostly from 2013-2018, via the API.

No idea how many people this could help, so it seemed like a worthwhile first post on kbin.

I used the old powerdeletesuite script to edit the comments, it worked for most of them.
