Are there any examples of codes of conduct for technical communities out there that specifically deal with bad-faith engagement – trolling, gaslighting, sea-lioning, etc...? Asking for a consortium.

If you actually want some resources, the IndieWeb code of conduct has some of that as well as links and references to CoCs from other communities too https://indieweb.org/coc

So about 2 months ago I ordered the new MacBook M1 Air based on lots of your recommendations, and I have to say, as a lifelong Linux user: it’s really nice! I’m using it as my personal laptop now and it’s really growing on me: super fast, good UI, no compatibility issues so far.

Nice! I just got the M1 Mac Mini for my studio and I've been enjoying it too!

I just bought a Mac Mini a year ago so am stuck with that for a while. Can't wait for the new M1 Mac Mini to support more RAM.

Yeah the current models are a bit disappointing, but I bought the cheapest one and I'm not planning on using it for very intensive stuff so I figured at that price why not.

I bought a tricked out mac mini to use as my main workstation. Maxed out the RAM to 32GB. The M1 has non-upgradable RAM so you're stuck with whatever you got from the factory.

Nice. I'm always on the fence about spending so much on Apple stuff. To get the kind of power I really want in a computer it ends up costing like $3k or more and I'm just not really comfortable spending that much.

twice today I have managed to press command-shift-w by mistake, immediately closing all my chrome tabs at once. I don't know why this is suddenly happening to me today, it's not like this is my first time using a computer.

Gotta go find the window with the right user profile first for that to work! (I have a work and personal chrome profile to keep bookmarks and history separate!)

The Gamestop situation is probably going to lead to more regulation of stock buying than all of the insider trading from members of Congress

So Redditors working together on a stock is considered "market manipulation," but bankers crashing the entire world financial system with trash mortgage products in 2008 was acceptable enough that NOBODY went to jail?
