I got enough use out of Sync for Reddit that I figure I owe the guy $20.

Not a fan of the lifetime price for Ultra, but it is what it is.

This is the most perfect description of him I’ve ever heard. Got a solid laugh out of it.

What happens when you sent an alarm for 10pm before going to sleep? Does it slow-charge then?

Because it is close to “Reddit”.

Super lame, but that was the criteria and it made me laugh at myself.

Oh I mostly agree. I meant that the name is similar. Redd-it versus redd-that.

The way I see it, it’s not something that should be joked about, at least not yet. I basically agree with SnazzyLab’s take. This is all immensely disappointing, and absolutely needs addressing and fixing. And it will take time. But joking around/laughing about it is in poor taste. Right now, it’s time for looking at what’s broken and improving it. Imagine someone hits you with their car. They’ve given you their insurance info, but then they say, “Lol, but that was some pretty sweet driving, wasn’t it?” I’m not saying he needs to be apologizing 24/7 on repeat, just that he needs to put some thought into how what he says will be received. Or maybe even just not say anything. There’s nothing wrong with saying, “We’re going to address this stuff” (which they have a video about) and then quietly working on things.

I prefer to hope that he loses SpaceX. They are legitimately doing cool new things that we honestly need. But they can do that without Elon’s involvement and he doesn’t need to profit from it.

Oh, it’s worse than that.

80 is basically four-twenties. 17, 18, and 19 are basically ten-seven, ten-eight, and ten-9. Which makes 97, 98, and 99 four-twenties-ten-seven, four-twenties-ten-eight, and four-twenties-ten-nine.

Try Feedly. As best I can tell, it’s the only spiritual successor to Google Reader from years ago (I’m still salty Google killed it). It’s about the only worthwhile non-self-hosted RSS reader online. Being online, it will sync between devices.

If you’re a little more technically inclined, you could also look into self-hosting your own feed reader. That’s beyond my abilities, so I don’t know where to point you for that.
