Cool. I stopped paying for it back when it was still called “YouTube Red”, during one of their many crackdowns on creators’ freedom in the name of benefitting advertisers. I dumped it and installed an adblocker, and eventually YouTube Vanced and its successor Revanced.

Yes, they have two options. Either honour the sticker price, or stop selling it at all until the price is fixed.

In Australia if the price at the checkout is higher than the price tag you are entitled to the first item free

Got a source on that? That’s not what the ACCC says.

They would have to refuse to sell to anyone. It would likely not be lawful to leave it on the shelf and sell it at the higher price to someone else who might not have noticed the discrepancy, until they fix up the shelf pricing.

Australia, the country the article is talking about. That was a quote from the ACCC website.

Reminder that by law, if the price is listed wrong:

Sometimes the price of an item in store or online at the checkout may not match the displayed or advertised price in store or online. If this happens, even by mistake, the business must either:

• sell the product for the lowest price - either the checkout price, or displayed or advertised price, or
• stop selling the item until the incorrect price is corrected.

Relevant username, I guess.

Hoffman was the head pedo and creator of jailbait is just as valid

No, it is not.

your opinion that it was a joke that he nothing to do with it

Not the opinion I expressed.

He was a mod for a while, but not the top mod. Top mod is the creator, unless the creator quits, passing it off to second mod. And he was mod at a time when anyone could be added as a mod without their consent. No need to accept an invite.

It’s bad enough that he was happy to let the subreddit exist for as long as it did even after significant on-site pressure to remove it. The same thing he did half a decade later with the_Donald. The fact that it took mainstream media criticism to be willing to take it down should be scathing enough. We don’t need to make up bs.

That’s cos it’s not true. He was a mod of it for a while, but I’ve not seen any verification of how long that was, and it was at a time when you could just add someone as a mod without them needing to approve it. But he was definitely not its founder.

He did allow it to stick around until the mainstream media started kicking up a fuss about it. That would be bad enough. We don’t need to make shit up.

That’s disappointing. Do you happen to know if fixing this up to work as expected is on the roadmap? Or something they’ve acknowledged and specifically rejected? Or no idea yet?

I’ve just come across this quite recent Reddit thread and have to be honest…it’s pretty much hit the nail on the head for me. Both the OP and many of the comments. bibober’s comment in particular.

If it’s just a lack of resources to develop these features quickly enough, that’s cool. But I’ll be extremely disappointed if they’ve decided that these are use cases they specifically don’t care about.

Like someone else said, there are warnings for the UK. Certainly not a healthy country in 2026, but for the UK to be given a safety warning when the country with literal brownshirts roaming the streets does not is just absurd.

I’m a little stuck on permissions. I created a Space for my gaming group to move to Discord, and added a few rooms to it. I’m the admin, but I added a couple of other users as Mods. One of those mods added a Room to the Space. As a Space admin, I would expect to be able to edit a Room within my Space.

Documentation I’ve been able to find about it is mixed. The Space itself has a setting that says Moderators should be able to manage Rooms:

But various other threads have people suggesting it isn’t possible. Nothing clear in the official documentation I’ve found.

My own experience: I haven’t figured out if it’s possible or how to do it. I want users in my Space to automatically see all the Rooms, so they don’t have to go and look any time a new Room is created. And for permissions on the Space to flow to control over Rooms within it. Is this possible, to your knowledge?

So when are countries like the UK (and my own Australia) going to update official government travel advice to warn against travel to America?

I appreciate the intent, but I’m getting paywalled and can see neither video nor article.

Ibtimes has been predominantly clickbait slop since long before LLMs were even a thing. I recall seeing them pop up with good SEO and shitty worthless content circa 2010.

So I am not the least bit surprised to hear they’d have embraced AI slop.

Holy shit. I had no idea about that!

Context for the rest of the world:

Chris Minns is the Premier of the state of NSW (Premier being the state equivalent of Prime Minister) in Australia. Earlier this week, on the invitation of the Prime Minister of the country, Israel’s President Herzog was in Sydney, NSW to commemorate the victims of last December’s Bondi mass shooting at a Hanukkah event. Never mind that he’s an Israeli political leader, not a Jewish religious leader who would have any business being there. And never mind that the shooter’s motivation had nothing to do with the state of Israel (it was an ISIS-inspired shooting, not a Palestinian one).

Anyway, the event saw huge protests all over the country, especially in Sydney. And in Sydney, the police used some of the most brutal tactics we’ve seen in this country. “Kettling”, where one set of police give an order to disperse, while other police refuse to allow them to move that way, effectively forcing protestors into direct conflict with police. Three particularly bad videos emerged, showing (a) police assaulting Muslims who were down on their knees praying, (b) a bicycle officer who tried to attack a protestor in office clothing, but comically fell over his own bike and tripped, leading the protestor to at first try to reflexively catch the guy, before the officer started beating him up while the protestor raised his arms up in the sign of surrender. Then a bunch more officers came in with full on swinging punches. And © a protestor restrained on his belly, as the officer holding him repeatedly close-fist punched him in the neck and around the liver.

At first the police were staunchly standing by the line that they followed all the necessary procedures, public safety, yada yada. The police have since announced that they will be conducting a review, but Minns, the Premier, has still refused to apologise.

NSW premier won’t apologise to Muslims after police grab men praying at rally against Isaac Herzog

Yeah sorry, I was mostly just making a joke there.

What do we do now that shitty government policies are forcing us off of Discord? Revolt.

The complaints are definitely fair. It’s noticeably less polished than Discord. But well worth trying out to see if that polish is an issue that will actually matter to you.
