I organized a peaceful protest in Sun Valley Idaho in 2021 on Reddit, and within 10 days my account was suspended, all my 15 years of posts and comments deleted. This was done in parallel with an operation conducted by an army of psyop bots that would try to scare people about it, claiming I was a terrorist, crazy, etc.

I was surveilled and harassed by the FBI during this time as well.

I've put some of this online on substack

The post is so vague that it isn't clear what this is about. I would suggest just creating a new reddit account under a different email? Are not the main limits to reddit accounts is 3 months age and 1000 Karma? That is super easy to achieve, no need to wait years to restore your old account. Just make a new one. You are also allowed to have multiple reddit accounts, just do not double vote on things.

As someone banned from Reddit, this violates TOS and (for me) resulted in a ban based on some kind of fingerprint that survives cookie wipes.

It is very hard to open a new Reddit account. They do tons of fingerprinting.

The best you can do is keep appealing every day. My friend just got hers back after 667 continuous days of appealing.

Spez is very, very aware of how fucked-up the Reddit ban/appeal system is. He's about to get his yearly dogpiling at ModWorld.

Can't have that on Reddit. Honestly, getting your account deleted is them doing you a favour.

Reddit is full of rightoids.

Most military facilities become so polluted they can't be used for anything else safely after.

Is this strictly humor, or is there practical knowledge here? Honestly can't tell.

They used Turbo Basic in Dbase 3 & 4 as well. It was so useful that Foxpro built a migration tool to port your dbase databases and code to Foxpro. Some of the first floppies I carried with me everywhere were my Dbase databases and basic programs.

I've used dBase (DOS) III+ and IV extensively, but never saw any BASIC there. Did I miss something?

I eventually replaced dBase with Turbo Pascal plus a library named Topaz that offered most of the relevant functionality (including reading/writing DBF files).

The scripting language built into dBASE is essentially a BASIC without line numbers and with DB commands built into it.

I ditched my smartphone nearly 7 years ago now. I quit online gaming before that. I described it like this to the head of AI for the state of Montana: "I'm airgapping myself against how this technology will be abused."

The wiki describing the US in this story reminds me of the opening scenes to Soylet Green.

Yep, this doesn't feel organic at all. Meta must be pretty desperate if they are going to go against the blue to sell spyglasses.

Citizen's United was the nail in the coffin for honest journalism, because it sold out to those with the largest wallets. If you truly want truth in journalism support independent journalists financially, and with your attention. Ignore corporate media.

How did Citizen's United affect journalism?

To me, the rules on how large a media conglomerate could get being changed in favor of allowing the conglomerate to grow even larger did some heavy lifting. Journalism publishers no longer have to compete since their all owned by the same limited number of owners.

Ironically most of the people reading this are doing so on an always connected phone with a fused battery, that they can't trust, because they don't control it. It also has significantly more capabilities that a flock camera, and they likely pay for it too.

That's not ironic, that's _hey, look over there!_

It's called choice. Maybe a dumb choice, but a choice!

false equivalence.
