It’s interesting you bring up pascal’s wager, because the first time was introduced to me it was basically a clear-cut example of a logical fallacy.

Probably because it is a clear cut example of a logical fallacy. The whole thing was an exercise in question begging via it's unstated assumptions.

The idea that soda and similar sugary beverages aren't hydrating is just plain wrong. They are, it's just that it's not healthy to drink them in anywhere near the quantities you would need to maintain hydration using them.

Sounds like your cat is either defective or doesn't like you. A well adjusted cat will demand cuddles in this situation and only make an attempt on your life if you refuse.

You need to specifically use a GDPR export with shreddit though, it's not magic, and if you don't have a GDPR export, it can't get around the 1000 post limit on the profile.

Any script or service you used can only access the most recent 1000 comments in your history.

This isn't quite 100% true. Shreddit supports getting its comment list from a GDPR request, and if you do that, then it CAN access the older comments and delete them, it just doesn't have any other way than that data request file to know about their existence.

The fact that they are too old to show up in your profile is WHY it can't delete them. The only way to delete those automatically is to feed in a GDPR data request into a tool like Shreddit that supports getting its comment list from that source rather than the profile.

Not in this chain, but it can likely be determined from your comment history by anyone who cares enough to put effort into it. A quick, less than a minute scan through that was enough to figure out that you live in the UK, and that you lived in Edinburgh during the first decade of this century.

Way too late to be worrying about that now. You've already posted it, and nothing you can do at this point would noticeably mitigate those types of risks.

Any time and as often as you want.
