    I don't go in for D&D podcasts that are just playing the game. I do go in for podcasts about D&D, improving the game, and lore. TheDMsLair, MrRhexx, AJ Pickett, D&DDeepDive, DungeonDad, Jorphdan,...

    My pleasure man. She's not Diamanda, but I'd be willing to bet she knows who Diamanda is, and I am so happy to see this sound continue in any form.

    I'll be happy to replace twenty pages of regex with one page of regex and a couple of efficient scripts. :D

    It has something to do with a book being published, I remember that much from when I went hunting for it recently.

    Seems to me like it's already superior to reddit. This place even has a functional search feature. :P It's about 1% of what we've imagined, though.

    Man, that's rarefied air, glad to see someone still remembers her. I can only think of one artist I've seen recently that's even close to her orbit. Definitely check out Findlay. Wait for it.

    It looks like this exact slice of reddit history has just repeated itself.

    As it turns out, I still have access to one barely used ancient reddit account. I'll pop in tomorrow and help out for a bit as well.

    Well, considering the third party apps are soon to evaporate, I think that maybe this time... yes, a good chunk of users will quit, or at least trade up websites/apps for something else. All that will be left is another wretched hive of scum and villainy... and an IPO that, god willing, bankrupts everyone that touches it.

    That makes this website into Automoderator 2.0 by default. We won't need so much regex this time. :P

    Fun fact - first time we turned those tags on, they all displayed nice and colorfully like Exemplary does and they had a count so people could see how many times each one was applied. It was a fucking disaster - everyone was in a tagging frenzy, and taking the presence of [noise x5] as license to flame people. As soon as we hid the tags, the problem cleared right up. Social networks have feedback effects, and they are usually not what you expect them to be.

    You have a Core 2 Duo so luckily it's just barely compatible with 64bit operating systems. Lubuntu is your most well supported choice that will give you the least potential hassles.

    I always thought the point of an alpha was to prove the stability and get the framework done. I think we're pretty damn decent on the framework, and as for the stability it's proven rather invincible. Micro-downtime is wonderful. We still have a long way to go though.

    In my mind, Beta begins when this code is a one-click install on a VPS, and hosting providers just start tossing it right in there like it's Plex or vBulletin. That's when the code gets more users rather than the site getting more users.
