  • Yeah the mystery of the triangle was puffed up by disingenuous authors who lied and fudged details to pretend ships went missing all the time. Things like reporting ships missing but not their eventual returns, claiming there were no storms when records showed otherwise, including sinkings and crashes that happened well outside the triangle, and a bunch more.

    When the the data is analysed; the number of incidents is the same as anywhere else on the planet.









  • I didn’t mind Reddit gold as a method of paying for upkeep on an ostensibly free site. If well-off Redditors wanted to chip in to help with maintenance resulting in fewer or less intrusive ads then that’s grand.

    The point when they started losing me was when the Reddit front page modernised into the Instagram feed looking abomination it is today and when they shifted from Reddit gold to the silver diamond thing they have now. No I don’t want to make an avatar. No I don’t want to follow users or have them follow me.

    It started as the last example of old social media like forums and got metric’d into this half-formed freak of a site that seems to actively resent the users that build and maintain their entire platform.

    Hear hear. Soul was a great movie because it was fun for kids but spoke to adults. Pixar does that a lot. A good kids movie is just a good movie that’s appropriate for children. Sure you can feed kids entertainment slop and it might even make bank but if you’re trying to make a film and not just a vehicle for the line to go up then slop is not it.
