When they went to school, my mother learned how to use a sewing machine, my father learned basic carpentry, and they both learned how to shoot and maintain an AK-47. Although the UUSR may not have been the perfect paradise that many people make it out to be, it does feel like modern school systems could learn a thing or two from the communists.

I love how “solarpunk” is such a broad aesthetic that it encompasses both zero-waste high-tech hydrogen powered biocities as well as scrappy revolutionary village communities where people cook food on solar ovens made from shattered car mirrors and fashion antennas out of coat hangers. It can be both hi-tech or lo-tech, as long as the tech exists in harmony with humankind and with nature

Damn, sounds impressive! The experience that inspired this meme for me was swapping the buttons in my mouse for newer ones from a dead donor mouse, which admittedly took much less than 2 hours haha

I don’t mean “redditor” as in a literal reddit user, but as a general insult. The type of person that has nothing better to do than to convince elementary schoolers that apple cores are poisonous… which they are, but not enough to be dangerous. And being pedantic about that sort of technicality is what makes someone a “redditor” to me.

Protip: while the “in one bite” part might be challenging, nobody is stopping your from eating your apples completely, including the core. It’s as tasty as the rest of the apple, and the stuff about apple seeds being dangerously poisonous is just some bullshit made up by redditors. Be free! Eat the core!

A lot of people seem to think that all ai art is low effort garbage, which is just not true. There can be a lot of skill put into crafting the correct prompt to get the image you want from an image generator, not to mention the technical know-how of setting it up locally. The “ai art is not art” argument to me doesn’t sound any more substantiated than “electronic musicians aren’t musicians, go learn a real instrument” or “photographers aren’t really artists, all they do is push a button”. But regardless, I agree that we need good tagging, or as @ThatWeirdGuy1001 said, different communities. Even though the output looks similar, actually drawing things and wrangling prompts are two completely different skillsets, and the way we engage with the artistic product of those skills is completely different. You wouldn’t submit a photo you took to a watercolor painting contest. Same with ai art and non-ai art.
Anyway, just thought i’d share my opinion as an ai non-hater.

I can’t decide what is more bewildering to me, the fact that you seem to have a threshold below which certain injustices can just be ignored, or the fact that genital mutilation is apparently below that threshold.

The one who should go back to reddit is you. Penises are great and awesome, obsessing over them in a non-derogatory way is fun and natural (I’m a straight man btw). People have been obsessing over penises since before recorded history. The one who should fuck off back to reddit is you.
- Comment on I mean, that's literally the opposite of what I want 4 weeks ago:
The type of people that truth social is designed for (conservatives, rightists, fascists) are often shunned for discriminating against minorities. Here they’re trying to pull a “no u”, to say that akshually we’re the ones who are discriminated against in mainstream media, and we’re gonna build our own platform with no discrimination, making us more virtuous than you. They don’t believe they actually have less discrimination, to them “discrimination” is a playing token in the game of morals. Actually, it would be more accurate to say that it doesn’t matter whether or not they believe they have less discrimination, because having less discrimination was never the goal. The card says moops.

Hmmm but what if your balls are too warm and you want them cooled down? Sounds like a win-win in that situation

I think people who are 18+ and want to get a circumcision for themselves should be allowed to, but otherwise it should be banned.

Full agree, flipping manga is stupid. When I see a manga panel, my first instinct is to read right-to-left. Flipping it is just causing unnecessary confusion. At least the original bothered to make the text actually fit inside the bubbles!

We already have the oxford coma, we need a name for this type of coma usage as well. Using another well-known university like Yale or Princeton might be a bit of a waste tho, I feel like the honor should go to a less gilded educational establishment. I propose we call it the Dnipro State Technical University of Railway Construction Coma.

Yes what the fuck is up with that? If you don’t like marxism-leninism, you can keep that to yourself. Stop shoving your politics down everyone’s throats with these cringe-ass memes. Just having a .world account makes me feel second-hand embarrassment for people like op

yeah, adding twelve to a single-digit number really does make my brain freeze like that. Something something can’t do math under pressure.

- Comment on Anon buys a TV without researching 1 month ago:
This is good advice, but I really wish we lived in a world where consumers could bond together and get laws passed that make this type of crap illegal so that buying TV’s (or any type of appliance for that matter) didn’t involve having to do research on weird non-consumer hardware just to have a nice experience.
- Comment on Racism nas gone too woke! 1 month ago:
Because nobody is talking about biological races when they say “race” any more? Race as a social construct exists just as much as gender. If you simply pretend that race doesn’t exist, you aren’t being anti-racist, you’re choosing to close your eyes on the racism that’s still happening.

Yes, but the “shall be used for Good, not Evil” part is part of the json license, not the PHP extension? json.org/license
- Comment on Evil 2 months ago:
OK but how can json have a license? I understand a particular json parser having a license, but how can a specification, which contains no code, even be considered “software”?

The complaints about yaml’s quirks (
noevaluating tofalse, implicit strings, weird number formats, etc.) are valid in theory but I’ve never encountered them causing any real-life issues.
