Cool, you managed to get it working after all. I never used Power Shell before this either.
It's ridiculous the average user has to jump through all these hoops just to regain control of their own data.

That's strange. It took me a while to figure out as well, but then worked non-stop for an entire day.

This is what I ran:

C:\Users\workPC\Documents\reddit-data\shreddit-windows.exe --username blah --password blah --client-id blah --client-secret blah --gdpr-export-dir C:\Users\workPC\Documents\reddit-data\export_blah_20240225

It's possible reddit is rate limiting you, or the program loses access to the gdpr folder it's pulling the links from (antivirus?). You could try running it from a different path or on a different pc.
I ran the .exe from the same "reddit-data" folder that contained the gdpr files just to be safe with folder permissions and stuff.

Besides, what the guy is yapping about it is 80% a robotics problem not an AI problem. It's apples and oranges.

He's essentially saying why can Will Smith finally eat pasta normally while we still don't have the robotic workforce from the 2001 Will Smith movie "I, Robot".

update: turns out PowerDeleteSuite and others can only delete your 1000 most recent comments (a limit set by reddit), but I found something that actually works and does a thorough job.
https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit

There are step-by-step instructions on the page.
I'm running the program in PowerShell with the GDPR option, and it's been nicely chugging away for hours now.

Same. It's 12 years for me.

Anyway, here's to wasting another 13 years in the fediverse! 🍺

PowerDeleteSuite doesn't work for me.
https://old.reddit.com/u/me/overview takes me to a login page (even though I'm already signed in) and when I sign in there, the same page just comes back again without the credentials I typed in.

Same thing happens in Firefox and Edge.
I swear it worked last year. Is it now broken or am I just really stupid?

It started as a joke but nowadays more and more old memes and screenshots can only be found in conditions like the last panel.

Well, here's the problem; my profile is completely empty. There's nothing left to delete.
There are no comments, submissions or anything there, but when I go to a thread via google (or a link), all my comments are still present.

That's irrelevant here because what they're describing is happening in every market, not just their niche.

[–] apemint 11 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Oh, shit you're right.

I wiped my whole profile years ago (with a script that overwrites your comments before deleting) but they're still visible everywhere except in my profile.

Isn't this bullshit illegal?

There's nothing reasonable about these assumptions.

There's no way the VisionPro gets even close to 100W. Why? Because heat dissipation. The vast majority of power drawn by semiconductors is dissipated as heat and, in a device that's strapped to someone's face, there's simply no way to dissipate hundreds of watts.

Also, knowing the battery pack size and battery life, it's easy to guesstimate the power consumption.

“The Apple Vision Pro provides approximately 2 hours of battery life. Based on its size, the internal battery capacity is estimated to be within 20,000mAh (74Wh), resulting in an overall power consumption of around 30W.”

Even if we assume the double of that 30W, it's well within USB-C standards.
