Thing is, a lot of English expressions come from Shakespeare’s works, the memes of the time. Like, a lot. So communication back then was also references to other things. Now, I agree the scale is different, and now it’s a massime phenomenon with internet and such.
- Comment on Mercedes becomes the first automaker to sell autonomous cars in the U.S. that don't come with a requirement that drivers watch the road 2 months ago:
Yeah, for real, “Someone will 100%, do you want it to be your friends/family/people you know or some absolute random stranger?” Some lemmitors would surely answer “My people, for sure”
- Comment on it works! only 99.99$! 2 months ago:
I pretty much dislike that DDG is not opensource while preaching about privacy and stuff. But tbh no idea what Kagi is.
- Comment on Elon Musk's X pushed a fake headline about Iran attacking Israel. X's AI chatbot Grok made it up. 2 months ago:
Ok, you just downvote and say no, but no explanation given. In my gov several cases of corruption arised during the last couple of years, and way more in the past. They affect high ranking ministers, and yet the oresident does not resign. Same with companies, they get paid the most, do the least, claim it is vecause they have “lots of responsabilities” but still never pay the price

Nah, it’s a bit like government. Its only his responsability if it is no one elses responsability. Like, they can have the most corrupt gabinets, most presidents do not resign/abdicate, whatever the word is.

Gender not important also, loads of women “mansplain”, it’s a problem with attitude, not gender or race
- Comment on Paying people to work on open source is good actually 4 months ago:
- No, but I mean it IS possible to take steps against and live outside capitalism while inside capitalism is possible. It’s a grayscale, not “all or nothing”.
- Meaning, that open source not being paid is not inherently outside capitalism.
- Yeah, sure is. But they are crowd sourced paymemts, instead of corporate payments.
- Comment on Paying people to work on open source is good actually 4 months ago:
Why? I use the internet to share media and culture via P2P. Is that failing my ideals? Also I don’t remember Stallman being a commie, to be fair.
And opensource CAN exist without people paying the mantainers, people have being giving things away to the community since time is time This trend of companies paying mintainers is relatively new.
Plus, on the other hand, as long as it is full open source, I can’t see why anyone would have a problem with the maintainers getting paid, specially through a foundation via donarions and/or crowdfunding.
- Comment on AI Launches Nukes In ‘Worrying’ War Simulation: ‘I Just Want to Have Peace in the World’ 4 months ago:
Machine learning IS AI. Seriously guys, you can hate it as much as you want (and calling LLMs autocomplete is quite reductive), but Machine learning is a subfield of AI.
I see this opinion parroted a lot around here, word by word, so I guess is the new popular opinion, but still… it is a fact that it’s AI.
That said, bit moronic to try an use them for military decision making, sure, at least nowadays.
- Comment on “Wherever you get your podcasts” is a radical statement - Anil Dash 4 months ago:
Yeah, but the RSS feeds is the where er. Lots of podcasts only have ivoox, apple podcasts or spotify, and getri g their RSS, specially for older episodes, is absolute shit

- Comment on Hackers steal NFTs worth millions. In other news, NFTs worth millions. 6 months ago:
Because the incorrect reddit downvoting, where people trest them like s like/dislike system (not the original downvoting, where you would only downvote if something did not contribute to the conversation) was imported to lemmy
- Comment on What are some helpful gaming websites you wish people knew? 6 months ago:
Also gg.deals in the same veins, it list both official stores prices, and key resellers, but with resellers it also lists the risks known for each reseller (like “unknown key sources”, “adds a fee after checkout” etc)
- Comment on Some Walmart employees say customers are getting hostile at self-checkout — and they blame anti-theft tech 8 months ago:
In my nearest supermarket (europe) it is a pain. You go through self checkout cause it should be faster, but it works like shit, and you have to wait a lot until someone comes to fix the problem. We are civilized, though, we don’t cause problems to the shopkeepers. Still a pain, though
- Comment on Goodbye Youtube and thanks for all the fish 8 months ago:
For me it blocks all the ads. I’ve been literal years without youtube ads between sponsorblock, vanced and revanced

Sponsorblock. You are welcome.
- Comment on Is there a game that you've been very patient for, which turned out to be dissappointing when you finally started playing it? 10 months ago:
See, that’s the part that baffles me about Starfield. I’m hyped as fuck for it, since a bethesda space game is exactly what I want (and let’s be honest, aside from the horse armor back in oblivion, their DLCs have been pretty solid with some misses)… but whenever I read people hype about it, it seems like they are expectont a completely different game, made by IDK, rockstar or something.

Can’t believe how long it took to find this answer
