I just wasn’t sure if it would fit the bill of being linux, but yea I am (obviously) a big fan of lemmynsfw!

lemmynsfw fits the bill pretty well, idk.

Porn on the cob

I use Maize btw

Real answer: in most other countries you can be punitively sued, ex: if a person wants to recoup the emotional damages from being crippled. You can also, depending on the country, be made to cover the cost of services provided by the medical system if you were found to be at fault (I don’t know how often that happens for an individual vs. a large company, but that’s how the rates were explained to me by a UK colleague)

It does now, yes. Early days of yeet did not have a definition - “that’s one Yeety Boi” as an example phrase. It was just a word you’d substitute in place of any other word for meme reasons. Eventually society settled on Yeet/Yote as meaning “to throw emphatically”, which is nice (and was possibly the original meaning? There was this whole cyclical aspect to it that was very interesting).

It’s a meaningless meme - if you remember the early days of “yeet” it’s lot like that. People started sticking the number around as an in-joke, but it’s gone super mainstream and now it’s just a goofy thing to do.

Anyone else getting tired of everything being turned into a discussion of the US vs China? You’re not wrong, but OP came out and clarified this was a comment more spawned from Japanese and British imperialism and you went right back to talking about America vs China. The world is bigger than that one topic, why do we have to bring it up everywhere?

Yeah, and that’s fine - I wasn’t trying to represent this as anything, really, but especially not that it was somehow representative of broader trends off of lemmy.

(Huh, odd. It’s replacing it for me on lemmy mobile, boost and on PC. wonder why it’s not for you)

Only if I get to vibecode the whole thing.

So… what’s your point? Your only contribution to the data that I have access to is far more supportive of the position that “good punctuation means AI” than any other example in this thread.

I want to highlight that I’ve never actually said anything about what this data might indicate; any conclusions, value judgements or wild guesses as to what this data might show are entirely your own (and those assumptions should probably be examined). I don’t really care that you don’t have access to an emdash on mobile lemmy (you do btw, markdown will replace --- with an emdash), I don’t really care about this topic, I was just having fun scraping data to gently tease someone about their typing habits.

Please don’t contribute to a hostile environment where you ascribe deeper motivations to dumb comments.

Most BNPL services don’t make classically hard inquiries, though - as I understand it that’s actually a big part of the problem, because they are able to skirt a great deal of the credit regulations put in place to prevent predatory lending (yeah those exist - fucking terrifying, isn’t it?) by not engaging directly with the credit agencies, instead relying on 3rd party consumer information data brokers of dubious reliability.

That was pretty much located solely in mesoamerica - the more regionally accurate game would be what we now call Lacrosse, and is still quite popular. Also the most based sporting organization:

The modern sport is governed by World Lacrosse and is the only international sport organization to recognize First Nations bands and Native American tribes as sovereign nations.

I do think that presenting your critics as cartoon caricatures of thought police is bait, yes. But I don’t particularly care that you’re doing it - I’m just pointing out that a culture of antagonism isn’t the same thing as a culture of persecution, and that you engage in extremely similar behavior to the people you yourself are demonizing. You’re characterizing me as mad about this and I’m truly not (nor have I indicated I even feel particularly strongly about it), but you’re still basing your responses in this interaction as though I am. Why assume that?

That comment wasn’t really directed at people for whom long-press is an option.

Sure, and you’re just as complicit in the culture of antagonism as they are. I’m not advocating for your tolerant interaction in the face of hostility, I’m just pointing out that you’re posting blatant ragebait then claiming that the people who take that bait are somehow behaving worse than you are or that they’re not engaging in good faith.

Of the 55,814 characters you have typed on lemmy, 1 has been an emdash.

Your single use of an emdash was also in a comment that appears to have been written by an AI.

You admit you dont engage with them - which is a perfectly reasonable choice you can make, to be clear - but without an ability to criticize the source, it’s natural for them to form a community to voice their objections to your ideas, and for that community to include context. The antagonism between .ml and non-.ml users enthusiastically goes both ways (the memes you’ve posted here are example enough of that, as is my use of .ml as shorthand for “people that are tankies”). If you don’t want to continue it, it’s probably best to take the classic advice and not feed the trolls.

I scraped all their comments directly from their user page with a selenium script, dumped them into a text file and opened that in Libre Office.

… I am elegance personified. Someone hire me to work on your codebase.

The triple hyphen is the markdown encoding for an emdash, ( --- ) in case anyone on android wants to start using them.
