  The name of the comm is rhetorical, you’re not supposed to try and disprove it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨🐙🐙🐙⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  An octopus stole the pixels, huh

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Getting a divorce is one thing. Losing your stuff in the divorce because you cheated is another. Granted, this may vary greatly based on location.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Adultery is already arguably a serious crime, since it generally leads to divorce courts finding against the offender.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨.world censorship?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah, just figured out my confusion was because tesseract was showing me the .world version of the post instead of my own. Got it!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨.world censorship?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m somewhat confused, another user said he could read the comment just fine? Exactly at which point in the transmission is it getting censored?

  Crazy how?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OH FUCK⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah, I see it’s that time of the day again

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PC gamers spend 92% of their time on older games, oh and there are apparently 908 million of us now⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  League of legends is two decades old now, so if you’re thinking it’s new, yeah that’s on you 😜

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I have a bunch of questions: Whats the best way to get this platform's feed to compete with reddit?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I dunno about you, but I’m here because I have better things to do that I’m pretending don’t exist

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's not up for debate!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No.

  You’re crab now.

  Be crab.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's not up for debate!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Why exactly do you think crabs are so… crabby? They’ve got sand up their everything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Least extreme biophysics phd⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The current context is modifying babies to make them HIV resistant. How would you model something similar without performing the experiment?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Least extreme biophysics phd⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Not that I support it in any way of course, but he’s not wrong. There’s probably a lot of medical knowledge to be gained by seeing how the babies he experimented on develop in the future. It’s just that the ends don’t justify the means.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oops, something went wrong!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you’re tech-savvy enough to want detailed error messages, you should also be tech-savvy enough to understand the implied message you just typed out. The ‘Oops’ isn’t for you, it’s for the average user.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nothing against disabled people but how come I can't replace my arm with something augmented that can carry more weight? Also other parts? My disabled bro asked me this and got me thinking⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because when you lift something, you’re not just using your arm, you’re using your whole body. Having an arm that could carry heavy weights would put large amounts of stress on the rest of your body as well, which would not be able to handle it. More importantly, the transition between prosthetic and flesh would be exposed to high stresses and current prosthetics technology is not able to handle those.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a way to generate an in-page link to a specific comment in order to reference it from another comment or the OP?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Every post and comment has a link, but with a couple caveats.

  1. Each link is unique to your home instance. Anybody else from a different instance using your link will be redirected to your instance, unless they’re using a UI or app that supports it.

  2. How you obtain the link depends on how you’re viewing lemmy. There should definitely be a method regardless, but you’ll have to specify your app and maybe ask in the relevant comm.

  I guess literally suing their customers didn’t work out so well for them long term.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you feel about someone taking the coins people tossed into a fountain or other public waterworks display for "wishes?"⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  At least here in Europe, nobody’s starving on the streets. May I suggest building less fountains and more social security nets if preventing starvation is your concern?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you feel about someone taking the coins people tossed into a fountain or other public waterworks display for "wishes?"⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re not going to just sit there, they help pay for the maintenance of the fountain. It’s like reaching into a donation box.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How was this old "no hands pushup" viral video made?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Metal bar or some kind of support sticking out of the ground at an angle, hidden within his jacket

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's easier to shoot, a bow or a firearm?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Bows take years to learn and a lifetime to master. Crossbows were a military revolution simply because they were easy to learn. In that sense, crossbows and firearms are very similar, but depending on your range you’ve got more dropoff in accuracy with xbows due to gravity.

  I don’t care what anybody thinks of gen AI, this is art.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Actually it's pretty cool⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  While I find the fact that the pics are being hosted on lemmynsfw.com hilarious, they are having the unfortunate effect of being blocked by the office firewall 😅

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DOGE Quietly Deletes the 5 Biggest Spending Cuts It Celebrated Last Week⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Potentially a bunch of follow up logic processes need to be modified as well. Gender is probably not one of the things that would have been dynamically processed in the past.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨place yer bets⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  An interesting thought is that if it actually hits, this might provide the impetus for some countries to get their shit together and get into space for good. Potentially changing the course of history.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨nuked from orbit⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well he did ask ‘what have you done that’s so great’

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mod of a similar comm to one I started deleted my advertising post, now downvotes half the stuff I post in my comm⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Interesting, thanks :)

  Does this count as vote manipulation? It’s not multiple accounts at work.
