- Comment on It's just loss. 2 weeks ago:
The problem is that the infographic says “of all the mammals on Earth”, which means individuals, not biomass. So the infographic is objectively false.

I would rather have my good friend bang my spouse while drunk, than drive drunk.

- Comment on When you work for a company owned by a A..hole 4 weeks ago:
Last company where I faced external suppliers, I had to take a training where they said we couldn’t accept any item worth more than like $20, except food or alcohol during a presentation. But we could accept such items on behalf of the company, and they would be raffled off to a random employee. One time a guy in purchasing got a giant brass horse head from a Chinese supplier. I guess nobody signed up for the raffle, so it became a permanent fixture in the cafeteria.
- Comment on Why is Lemmy attempting to radicalise people to enforce class wars? 4 weeks ago:
Do you have any evidence of major AI generated memes and comments? Sometimes I see an obvious AI image (and down vote it), and some communities are made for the purpose of AI so I blocked them. But aside from that, have you found much generative AI slop?
And if so, how would you fix that in code? Some sort of captcha? I think the volume is low enough that it wouldn’t help.

If gender is what’s in your pants, then twice a week my gender is your dad.
- Comment on The cell wall is the wall of the cell. 5 weeks ago:
The cell membrane is the wall of the cell. I know it’s less catchy, but human cells don’t have a cell wall.
- Comment on Nexus Mods Sale Sparks Concern in Modding Community 1 month ago:
I haven’t used it in the last several years, but from about 2014-2018 any time I tried to download, it required registration, and any time I tried to register, it just didn’t work. It was some problem with the javascript in their site. Probably related to captcha or something. Yes, I tried multiple computers, multiple browsers, even tried registering on a library’s computer.
Looks like their site is less shit now, but it’s still awful.

Purple: You have eaten beets recently. Green: You have had a Vitamin B supplement.
- Comment on Anon's split personality 1 month ago:
Are you going to provide an explanation you think is more correct? Some kind of correction, or citation, or just say “you’re wrong” without further comment?
- Comment on Anon's split personality 1 month ago:
The first half, because of testosterone.
The second half, because of prolactin.
It’s not really that simple, but it’s part of it. And I’m not a doctor.
- Comment on Just give me a few hundred turns, and I'm gonna spank everyone at this tournament. 1 month ago:
You could just counterspell it. The “no spells in the building can be countered” and “protection” clauses only affect it after it enters the battlefield.
So, it would go to the graveyard, its owner would be banned, and nobody could take any turns. They would have to postpone the tournament until the next day.

Bar soap dries out my skin really badly. Besides, moisturizing body wash is not too expensive.
- Comment on Unable to complete training videos, because the password reset link doesn't work. 2 months ago:
I can’t get into the details, but I’ve used UKG/Ultipro in the past and it is absolute shit. Way worse things that just what dirtycrow is showing here.
- Comment on RIP obsolete tech 2 months ago:
I knew. I had been meaning to buy an aftermarket car stereo with USB and MP3 support for a long time. I was on my last blank CD, and had to decide then whether I would buy more CDs, or whether I would buy a new stereo that didn’t need CDs.

Gods, that’s awful. I would send them a bill for the cost of my attention.
- Comment on You could get anything you wanted and it was FREE 2 months ago:
The GPL explicitly allows redistributing without charge, even if you paid for it. If they didn’t want their program redistributed, they shouldn’t have licensed it under the GPL.
- Comment on You could get anything you wanted and it was FREE 2 months ago:
Their entire security model depends on knowing file extensions, but they still hide them. Even if you enable it, there are some extensions that still won’t show, like .lnk (shortcut file). You can absolutely have executable code, and therefore malware in a .lnk file.
- Comment on You could get anything you wanted and it was FREE 2 months ago:
And it was GPL, so it wasn’t even copyright infringement.

How can you tell if this one is? The text differences within and between panels 1 and 2 are indistinguishable (to my eyes) from JPEG artifacts.
- Comment on How to get rid of Whatsapp? 3 months ago:
I can’t seem to upload images, but if you image-search for:
“we’ve completed our review and found this account’s activity goes against whatsapp’s terms of service”
You will find screenshots you can download and use as fake proof that you are banned.
When I had to contact Facebook to get an account unlocked, they took about a month to respond to each email, and never did unlock the account no matter how much proof I sent them. I expect WhatsApp is similar, since it’s owned by the same company. So just say that they hardly respond, and they say things they’ve already said, ask you to try things you’ve already tried, or they ask for documents you’ve already sent them.
Why were you banned? Maybe you accidentally signed in on a phishing page, and they sent spam using your account. Maybe you created an account, and your first action was to contact a person you hadn’t contacted before (obviously), and it was marked as spam. Maybe you signed up on an IP address previously used by a spam-sending datacenter (this happened a lot to me at my old house). Maybe your phone number was banned from WhatsApp before you got it, but you already gave it to too many people to be able to change it.

- Comment on Is it better to leave a country, or stay behind to fight for it? And what about the ethics of fleeing instead of staying behind? 4 months ago:
If you’re trans: Start making plans to flee. You don’t have to carry them out right now. But do get a passport, even if it has to have your deadname. Canada or Mexico probably wouldn’t accept a US refugee just for being trans right now, but that will change in the future.
If you’re an immigrant, or even a permanent resident: It’s unsafe in the US right now. I wouldn’t fault you if you left today. However, everyone’s circumstances are different. Maybe you want to stay and support your spouse and kids who are citizens, and you’re willing to risk your life to do it. It depends on the circumstances.
Anyone else: Stay and fight.

This looks like AI. I wish you would label it if it is.
- Comment on I don't envy the humans pre-dentistry 4 months ago:
Pre-dentistry, a bunch of your teeth would have fallen out before your wisdom teeth came in. There would have been space for the wisdom teeth so they wouldn’t need to come in sideways.
- Comment on This whole "Sign in to prove you're not a bot" thing is pissing me off 4 months ago:
In incognito or private browsing mode, you are way more likely to be blocked or forced to fill out a captcha, because the site won’t see any tracking cookies you would otherwise have.
To Google, preserving your privacy looks the same as being a bot. Using a VPN, clearing cookies, using private browsing, being signed out of a Google account, are all things that improve your privacy but look like bot activity. Google can use the excuse of blocking bots when their actual goal is tracking.
- Comment on This whole "Sign in to prove you're not a bot" thing is pissing me off 4 months ago:
OP isn’t trying to post, just trying to view. There is no justification for a captcha there.
- Comment on What’s the difference between pansexuality and bisexuality? 4 months ago:
One woman told me that she identifies as bisexual, even though she is attracted to all genders including non-binary, because she has two “modes” of dating. When dating women, she prefers to be the pursuer. When dating men, she prefers to be the pursued. I’m not sure which way she usually went with enbies.
