Most stuff can be done with the GUI. You just say that's how YOU do it, and if they wanna find out another way they can just do a search for themselves.

Sometimes it depends on how far the employers head is not too far up their bums. What you should try to do is to build up a history with contact details - but that is also of limited value as folks move on and change numbers.

What they are looking for is some kind of 'trusted authority' - so your current boss is the main one. However, they should look more at your assessment of your skills and relevant abilities and qualificastions.

Then they should call you in for a chat and interview you. Then if they don't think you suck, they can give you a trial period during which you must prove yourself.

Don't over-think it.

Google and Reddit are both evil - don't do it!

I use SearXNG and a re-director, so that results via Reddit come through another portal (libreddit - extension available for Firefox).

4km down - I get the willies if I see more than 20 metres of water underneath me and I can't see the bottom.

Strange question... did you post it in 'no stupid questions' for a specific reason?

• If they're found in time, they'll be rescued.

• If not, and they don't surface, they won't.

• It's been stated that there's a very high chance that they won't be found.

• It's also been stated that they had drop-weights, so it seems they didn't drop those, or they got trapped - which means they'd be much harder to find as they aren't out in the open.

• There's also a good chance they imploded already - which is an alternative explanation for them failing to drop weights and start to surface.

• When will the movie come out?

They have the right to do what they like.

Redditors should delete that label, and simply set up shop in their garden shed instead.

protest isn't really a big deal.

The big deal comes when people work to do the same thing on other platforms.

• Then we'll find out what Reddit is really good for.

Oh, and Quora, and Google, and Meta, and Twitter.

Remember, do it in Firefox - not Chrome.

This is the way.

Reddit is so much an American business - screw that. But it's not even doing a proper business model - screwing the stupid Yanks and giving a better deal to people who don't feel the need to 'pay more for quality'.

You know, I bought a HP printer which takes HP cartridges which print out (officially) 1500 pages each, and they cost the equivalent of $8 - but only outside the USA... as an answer (I think) to well organised resistance to the 'maybe 300 pages or less' leading to people buying modified ink-tank cartridges locally made (in Thailand).

My last cartridge (not heavily used) lasted for 5 years before being replaced... so HP gets my money with a smile.

Reddit can go whistle.

Haha. This is where the Fediverse can take over if people don't take the piss.

Some years ago, my favourite tracker (The Box) went kaput - and I've known many others go down due to various issues - one of which is usually financial strains.

So people can donate - for someone earning 300 a week, it'd be trivial to throw 30 in the pot just one time in a year...

So sure, To be valued by Reddit, you must pay $50 per year - and if you don't, then you're not a customer, you're a commodity. Creators do so because they feel compelled to create and share, Mods do so because they have a personal need to contribute whether they get paid or not.

So the ONLY answer is to say 'Sure, we'll carry on - but it's clear we aren't valued by Reddit - so we'll do it outside'.

Fancy, yes. Not the same. For example: ping -a -c5 lemmy.world gives you an audible 'drip' sound for the ping.

But people LOVE Pingu.

This is the way.

I'm not blind, but I think everyone wants to start paying attention to ownership - internet belongs to Google and is rapidly increasingly controlled by containers - like Meta, instagram and Reddit if we don't step outside the prison.

I guess so - maybe 'new' should be the initial setting...
