    While I don't see the need for a custom style so much, the ability to add custom features the way we do on Reddit with our IAmA calendar and stuff like that is invaluable.

    FYI, 1password.com has a haveibeenpwned integration into their password manager. When I ask it to do a scan, it yells at me for using passwords that are compromised, and also flags any places where I haven't changed it since a known breach. Also notifies me when there's a new breach. It's good stuff.

    (No, they're not paying me to say this, I just love their software)

    node.js, I've found it easiest to hook into Slack. And essentially this is one monster of a Slack app gone very out of scope. :)

    I'm working on building a verification App for IAmA. Right now it's a totally manual process in email. In my new version, someone will submit thier ID, a picture of them holding a sign with thier username, and proof of thier claim. Then my app will use Amazon's computer vision algorithms to confirm it's the ID belonging to the person, confirm it's the same person holding the sign, confirm the username in the sign is the one that made the post, drop the final proof document in our slack channel with a red and green button, then a moderator just has to skim the doc and see if it matches the claim, and hit a button, where the bot will then remove or approve the post.

    That's the idea anyway. I've got the first couple of steps down, I can verify an ID belongs to a person, but still working on the rest.

    Yea but I like to play games. When I used Linux at school and work I preferred it but I just don't feel it's viable as a home use platform.

    Agreed, but I think we should welcome conversation and discussion from all the new people enthusiastic about the potential of a better system. Someone might come up with a genuinely good, new idea.

    Good post, but everything you've covered is at this point well trodden ground.

    I have a special place in my heart for the Guild Wars soundtracks. Jeremy Soule is awesome - he did a lot of the Elder Scrolls stuff too iirc.

    The World War Z audiobook is great. Each chapter is a different character, so they have a different voice actor. Some really good ones in there.

    As a longtime Tmo subscriber and Sprint refugee, I'm a little worried. Maybe with JL still at the helm things will work out. But it doesn't seem very pro-consumer.
