    Your guy is kind of over the top and his humor is a bit off, but he’s not wrong. A couple strategically planted trees OR a couple more carefully planned covers would provide shade to the benches most of the day.

    A park I frequent has three large triangle shades suspended overhead that cover most benches and some of the play area most of the day. That’s good urban design.

    This is economic design. One shade that barely covers two benches at noon.


  • Fair, it got your attention, which I think is worth it.

    But as they mentioned, Reddit is doing fine, and making more revenue than ever. The premise of the clippy protest is to scare the CEOs into submission, exactly like the reddit blackouts, but that wasn’t the result of the blackouts and that won’t be the result of YouTube users changing their avatar to clippy.

    The only thing that will scare them is users actually migrating away, which again didn’t happen enough with the reddit exodus, it didn’t get a massive blow like digg did. Users are too complacent now.

    I’ll still change mine in case it gets one user’s attention enough to start them down the Louis rabbit hole and make them understand the problem of corporations owning all your data, with the hope they will self motivate to leave these platforms entirely, but it ain’t gonna get any CEOs attention when they wake up and see everyone on slack has clippy, they’ll laugh it off.
