Heated Gamer Moment

Elon is a free speech absolutist, as long as you’re hurting other people and not him.

You don’t have to be good at dancing to dance, I’m definitely not!

Most of the time I just put on music that suits my mood and move however I feel. Getting into that flow state of just doing what comes naturally, not caring if I’m dancing well or look stupid is really helpful to me personally.

This is very 2023.

I skipped the pain and just bought a rice cooker. It’s easily my most used kitchen gadget.

I like to dance. Sometimes it’s angry dancing, sometimes it’s happy dancing, but it helps me blow off steam and express emotions in a healthy way.

Better speeds, better access to niche content, arguably better privacy.

This is assuming that the group is telling the truth about what they found.

True, I just interpreted your comment differently to that.

For what it's worth, I didn't enter an email when I made my account on Beehaw and I didn't have any issue with getting approved. I've seen the admins saying that there's a pretty heavy backlog of new accounts to approve at the moment so it could be that they just haven't gotten to you yet.

Apparently there's a known bug where if your chosen username is already in the instance the page will just hang and the admins will be none the wiser that you tried to sign up at all, so if you find that you haven't been approved after a few days it may be worth trying again with a different username.

They can 100% know what was accessed and what wasn’t. This didn’t just happen, it happened in February and their SOC team or an external company would have conducted a full sweep as they’re legally required to disclose what was breached in many of the territories they operate in, which they did four days after the incident took place. I know it’s on trend to hate Reddit right now, but it’s not some one man operation running on a dusty old server in a garage, it’s something like the 20th most visited website on the entire internet, and that comes with certain legal obligations. They know what they’re doing and clearly take this kind of thing seriously.

You don’t have to believe them, but there’s no proof that any user data was breached and they seem to have followed the proper protocols so far. Unless anything else comes out, I’m inclined to believe that they’re telling the truth, or at least not lying.

Reddit announced the breach in February shortly after it happened, so they appear to have followed the proper protocols. They also claim that no user data was stolen, and the hackers haven’t provided any evidence to the contrary.
