My grandma has a glass bottle coke from 1984, still full and carbonated. It’s a limited edition made for a high school. Coke would never do that today
I may start making wasteof-client 3.0 once the beta is fully released
The wo3 api is great so far, the user one has so much info its crazy
includes: whats currently there, sidebar + lots of details, last 15 posts with full metadata, a bool of if the user if following themselves (I find this funny) and online is removed, which is sad, but that might be added later, who knows
made some cool charts with it using this tool https://apps.urban.org/features/equity-data-tool/
(this is for areas with low income) McDonalds are apparently skewed towards areas with white people and seniors
in areas with children it’s skewed towards people with very low incomes (which makes sense since McDonalds is so cheap)
overall:
if you want to see my data for this go here: https://github.com/Oren-Lindsey/mcdonalds-locations/blob/main/mickyds.csv
I now have a csv file containing the locations of all McDonalds in the united states and whether their ice cream machines are broken
All verified users are actually jeffalo alts
imagine this platform was all jeffalo alts, but they don’t know the other alts are also jeffalo alts so everyone here is jeffalo
What are you supposed to do when you see a news headline like this: "A toxic, carnivorous, and nearly immortal worm is invading Louisiana" (real news headline I saw)
In the first few months of wasteof, there were very few users. A user named @beemovie spammed the bee movie script (they're banned now). So i was just keeping up the tradition lol
IRL News:
@elon-musk bought Twitter for $44B. He bought each share for around $54.20. He now is the owner of Twitter. He originally bought around 9.2% of Twitters shares, without telling anyone, so he could get shares for cheaper. People didn’t like that.

@apple Apple launches a self-service repair program for iPhone users in the US. People can now actually fix their phones without paying as much to do it.
wasteof3 news:
@jeffalo released the private beta that was invite-only. You get an admin message that says this:
The wasteof.money v3 beta is out! Please keep in mind that I had to practically rewrite the entire site, so various features are missing.
The beta uses the same database as the production site, you can use both simultaneously. You probably will want to use both simultaneously, because the beta is still missing some important features.
Cool posts:
@ee I think likes The Bee Movie… and put it on a whole post in the wo3 beta, since it has no char limit. https://wasteof.money/posts/626aa46a93eee3f71db5bc5f
@daily_news wants war because of one of my posts. War is bad. War shouldn’t happen. https://wasteof.money/posts/626aef46694e50b7f41ce027
Have a good day!
