  To all the people saying it’s “AI slop”, it’s not. This image is on a blog from 2014.

  …blogspot.com/…/what-is-meaning-of-alice-in-wonde…

  At least run it through a reverse image search before making any accusations.

    not the same image, but op’s image is an ai upscale of the one you linked. the tells are

    1. the background is red instead of white
    2. the pattern on the sleeves is similar, but different.
    3. the original is flipped horizontally, and the upscale doesn’t know that, so it tries to “fix” the numbers of the pocketwatch, turning the flipped “IX” into… “N”

    They don’t look the same and it doesnt look like differences that can be explained by photoshop.

    The reverse image search spotted it well, but it isn’t the same image. It’s very likely the source where the image generator got its ideas from though: lemmy.world/post/31578519/17746077

  In Germany we say “dreiviertel acht” or “three quarter eight”. This will irrationally enrage people from Northern Germany.

    Noooo only Berliners say it like that, and as a northern light it enrages me as I have to convert it to a more sensical time format.

      It’s a thing in Bavaria as well. I’m trying to erase it from my vocabulary because I hate it too.

    Hungary has the same system. Or “half five” actually being 16:30. It’s been hella fun getting used to “half five” meaning 17:30. Constant confusion.

    Would ppl from Northern Germany say that was 6? That would be my way of calculating 3 quarter 8 :)

    In Dutch you get fun stuff like 16.35 being vijf over half vijf, being 5 past half five. I’m sure German is similar in that regard.

  Last year, a middle aged gentleman stopped me on the street to ask me what time it was. I told him “half past one and ten minutes.” Just came naturally to me (I also wear an analog watch, so never really can tell the exact minute). I still remember the confused look on his face, and I imagine he’s been working really hard to convert it into minutes. That made me self-conscious about saying the time, and I noticed I never say time in the hours-minutes format. My kids will be the same, as long as they pick up this habit from me rather than videos and movies.

  7:15 is a quarter till half past 7:00.

    7:52 is half past a quarter to 8

  Why do old people say that shit? They expect me to do math every time? Side note, I an American recently switched to using a 24 hour clock. It’s way better.

  Ah, good ole decimal time.

• chiliedogg@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  Still better than quarter of.

  What time is a “Quarter of 10”?

  I could see it as 10:15, 9:45, 9:15, or 2:30. It’s stupid, and anybody who uses it is wrong.

  source

  • Kolanaki@pawb.social ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    A quarter of 10 would be 7:50.

    source

    • Ziglin@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      I would have intuitively said that it’s 2.5.

      I’ll see myself out.

      That’s a quarter off ten. An all too common mistake.

      source
  • wieson@feddit.org ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    The tenth hour of the day goes from 9:00 to 10:00.

    So quarter of ten is 9:15. I don’t know how one would explain the other possibilities, but this is the correct answer.

    Imagine it as a glass of water that gets filled for each hour. Once it is full, the hour has been reached.

    • chiliedogg@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Except it’s not. The actual answer is 9:45. It’s a stupid way of describing time.

  The AI could at least draw the watch correcting to the “joke”

  source
• Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  Wtf is 7:75? That would be 8:15. Quarter to eight is 7:45.

  Or am I just super old and whooshing on the joke? Maybe it’s an AI equivalent of eight fingers or two left hands?

  source

  • ThisIsAManWhoKnowsHowToGling@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Yep, you wooshed the joke. The joke is that ¾=75%.

    source

    • Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Well yes duh 75% is ¾ that much I got. So I guess the joke is AI wouldn’t, because it hasn’t learned to tell time, just as it’s not sure about fingers…
