I was watching a review of the GOP debates by some US political junkies just last week and one of the hosts said that Vivek knows he doesn’t have a chance but is using this presidential run to get exposure for his planned foray into right wing talk show host. Something like Tucker or Alex Jones.

Great bang for your buck with free news media advertising by pretending to run for president and saying crazy stuff.

After hearing he wanted to start his own right wing talk show his character and mannerisms made so much more sense.

Apologies for the facebook link (They start talking about him around the 14 min mark and the comment on his talk show plans is at 20 mins)

Have they announced how they come to these numbers?

Are they actual combat deaths or do they take into account surrenders and injuries substantial enough to be taken off the field?

Initially I thought you were saying they subscribed to a single magazine from the same instance three times and was thinking “Is that even possible?”.

Then I had a closer look and realised they were 3x different magazines on different instances but all with the same name.

Makes sense that it would appear 3x times.

Fantastic idea to see what else is out there.

One of the issues I’ve seen recently with kbin.social website is my subscribed feeds getting drowned out by CATS!!!

Don’t get me wrong I love cats but I’m subbbed to about 30 magazine but occasionally kbin decides to fill the entire subscribed feed with posts from m/cats . Hopefully Atremis can be a little bit more broad in terms of which posts from subscribed magazines it presents upfront.

If I fits I sits

I’m fine with keeping them soley as an indicator that I’m contibuting in a positive way to the community.

I also use it to decide on how much effort I’ll put into discussions with other users. If a user I’m talking with has a consistently low or negative reputation then they are more likely a troll or combatative person who is really not worth wasting your time in engaging with in detail.

Is Jinx a boy or girl?

Most cailcos are female but in very rare instances they can be male.

I’ve seen a dog create a similar masterpiece in just one afternoon by chewing the entire trim off a door frame.

I’d like to point out that the upvote/downvote buttons here on kbin don’t behave like you are used to on reddit they are a little different.

• Up arrow = Upvote on Reddit and Favourite on Kbin - This is very different to reddit
• Down Arrow = Downvote on Reddit and Reduce on Kbin
• Boost (at bottom) = On kbin this is the equivalent to a reddit upvote.

It kinda confused me when I looked at my profile the other day and my reputation was -2

I’d only made one single post and it had 17 “upvotes” and 2 “downvotes” so the -2 confused me a bit. That’s when I realised the uparrow was not an upvote and didn’t contribute to reputation. I suspect many others don’t understand this either based on the interractions with my other post.

Edit: To be clear while “fake internet points” are not overly important to me. “Reputation” or similar do give me an indication if I am contributing to a community in a positive and productive manner.

Seeing -2 made me think “Who have I pissed off?” Till I realised that “Favourites” don’t contribute to reputation.
