Tuna seems fine as a topping. Id eat that. It's anchovies that are just a horrifying war crime.

Ehh, I can definitely see it being discouraging to some, but most people who post in the first place tend to be active enough to respond to a gentle reminder mod ping like Jeff did above. I find that very reasonable. Editing only takes a few seconds.
I can see so many hours of my childhood friends and I playing army battles defending this as a fortress.
The problem is the precedent of letting the now actively fascist federal government outright ban communication platforms- I hate TikTok as much as the next guy for the amount of manipulative brain rot and propaganda they dump, but this is way too easy of a precedent to abuse.
Pretty much any battery can charge in 12 minutes if you can handle their thermal constraints.
Real life mechE here. I'll tell you how my brain works.
99% of the time when I get an odd request from outside of the department, it goes one of many ways:
- the request is literally not in my scope of work and I let them sit for a day or two and then politely deny with a CC to my manager.
- the request is so vaguely worded that I could give a 2 sentence answer or a 20 page pdf answer or a PowerPoint full of flowcharts, and all would be "right", leaving me in a state of decision paralysis and needing clarification.
- the request is something I can help with but I don't know your technical capability levels, so I try to keep it very generic and high level as to not simply knock you over with a technical dictionary.
- the request is in my scope of work and very doable, but I do not want to inadvertently share information that I may not be allowed to divulge freely to other parts of the company.
And of course, there's a lot of CYA reluctance too depending on what's being asked.
If you're asking first or second level engineers things like "how does your technical work flow do it's thing?" you are starting at the wrong level for a documentation project of this massive scope. Engineers have managers whose job is to translate requests into technical terms and figure out who is the best at doing what. That's what mine does: he takes a super weirdly worded ECR (engineering change request) and translates them into technical steps and clear direction for me. Then I can pick out the details needed to make it happen, confirm them, and document them.
You need to define clear needs out of your request: start with your end goal, the processes you need, the mechanical details of the processes you need to write, how much detail you are comfortable with, and the format in which you want it . and take all of that to the senior or director level of whatever department manages those systems. They may or may not know the exact information you need, but it should be their job to delegate and translate the request such that their reports can collate what you need in the form that you need it. And because it's the director delegating, the engineers have inherent CYA and will be a lot more comfortable giving you what you need.
Rule 4 definitely shouldn't be rescinded, there would be way too much editorializing of titles to fit the posters narrative (because let's be real, >50% of users don't open the article, at least not at first). It definitely needs to stay in a true news community.
A timestamped archive version would be nice but you then end up taking away direct traffic from legitimate websites- the same problem as the AMP link I unfortunately had to use above. No traffic, no survival. (Granted I will happily post an archive link when content is paywalled; but most other sites do still need that traffic.)
your options 3 and 4 could work fine- 3 just seems like spam and you'll get people hating it like the MBFC bot, and 4 already partially exists- in the form of the link tagline that appears under the post when you actually open it. Warning users about noncompliance and letting them decide if they care enough to change it or not is probably fine enough for now.
Appreciate it. I swear most news sites will change a title 3, 4 times after publication these days. Must have some shit to do with SEO or something.
Fixed, looks like they changed it on me
God damn, I'm saving your comment it's so spot on.
You forgot
- Corporate media and Republicans spend their entire term blaming Democrats for ruining the economy despite Republicans being actively in charge
- Dumb fucks believe them
Oh yeah, its kind of like how canadian bacon works on "hawaiian" pizzas too. Sweet and salty is a nice combo.
Anchovies are like "the classic fishy smell" turned up to 11 and then put on pizza. I never understood the appeal of them, but apparently they're super popular with the older generations ordering pizza.
