Bacause LLMs are furcking stupid.
- Comment on [Meta] Could we consider avoiding political topics in this community? 5 weeks ago:
So 6 examples over 20 days.
I’d say the answer to “Has it been much of a problem?” would be a clear “No” then.
- Comment on Why are people impressed with SpaceX? 5 weeks ago:
Have you seen their boosters land? It very much IS impressive. They basically made reusable rockets viable, which is a huge step for more affordable space flight.

If the customer wanted to use the self checkout they’d be going to the self checkout …
- Comment on Ok boomer 5 weeks ago:
I don’t get it. Why would you ask a customer if they want to use the self checkout lane?

Wolf spiders don’t build webs though.

What problem?
- Comment on Men: What sequence do you fellow to dry your body off after showering or bathing? 1 month ago:
I put on my bathrobe for a couple of minutes. Use the sleeves to dry my head/hair. That’s pretty much it.

In Switzerland people eat pasta with meatsauce, applesauce and Gruyère cheese. I wish I could forget.

Good, let’s hope it’s permanent this time.
- Comment on How come drug dealers seem to have a messed up house or at least a messed up car with a bunch of trash in it? 2 months ago:
My drug delivery drivers only have very clean and expensive high end cars because those are much less likley to get pulled over and searched.

Something about those legs just makes me want to call them daddy.

To expand more on the meme side: It’s a notorious problem in spider communities that every brown spider will at some point be called a brown recluse by … less educated people. Which can lead to innocent spiders being killed just for their skin colour! Which is why there are usually rules that prohibit layman from identifying medically significant spiders.
The spider in the picture is a tarantula, so very obvious not a brown recluse. That’s the joke. It’s funny here, but seriously don’t make that joke on an actual spider community, none of the residents will think it’s funny.

Red spider mite is the common name for Tetranychus urticae. That’s quite the specific ID for such a terrible picture. I don’t think it’s correct, Trombidiidae seems more likey (and those are predetors).
- Comment on arachnids 2 months ago:
Seems to be a mite (possibly red velvent mite).

- Comment on Giant spiders the size of rats making a comeback in UK 2 months ago:
Their bite is often described as being very painful to humans and as causing localised inflammation, vomiting, and slight feverishness that disappears after 5-10 days.
That sounds less agreeable than the giant raft spider.
Sentence after that:
However, solid evidence is lacking
It’s really hard to get bitten by any spider. I can’t imagine how hard it must be to get bitten by spider that lives underwater. I have to check those wiki sources …
- Comment on how does a tote bag work? 2 months ago:
Are you maybe shorter then average?
I really don’t see what’s awkward about them. Worst thing is you have to push them outwards a bit so you don’t kick them with your legs while walking.
I prefer a back pack for all carrying purposes myself
I do too, but 2 tote bags and backback can carry a lot more then just a backback.
