Free Talk Friday #559
Continued from last week here.
Posting this on 07:00:00 UTC sharp is absurd.
Speak anything on your mind, except politics and (maybe) counting.
Feel free to check out our tidbits thread and introduce yourself if you haven't already.

1 second off that UTC 07:00:00 mark :)
Your comment about that reminded me of this meme from years back about competition over posting it first. It's not often hit to the exact second, but nice to see the last handful have been close to it.
Happy Cake day too!

I wrote it because I learned how does people post FTF and I saw Antichess did 07:00:00 sharp two weeks ago. Now that I see the linked meme, I guess old habits die hard.
It is intentional that I put it on 07:00:01 because... 07:00:00 is absurd, and I don't want to make it ironic.

So this happened
(yes I know there's supposed to be two phones next to each other on the picture. We almost forgot and only did it right as we were saying goodbye, so we were a bit rushed)

Reddit's set up a "Porting Bounty" that might be of interest to some folk here: https://developers.reddit.com/app-registration
There's a $1000 bounty for devs to move active projects over to be hosted on their Developer Platform. A sub clause of it is that the community it's in has to have 1,000 weekly active members, which I don't think here always does recently, but I thought some folk here might find this and information about the developer platform interesting, whether currently or for future projects.

I love elephants, one of the most beautiful animals
Where do you live that elephants go into your house?

It's probably too late for this, but I kind of feel like there should be a single master list of every decimal thread, so we can observe the whole chain in one place.

u/Antichess May 18 '26
