I see there are many variations of this joke.
- Comment on Looking to buy a cheap but best first 3d printer. Ender3 V3, CR-10 SE, or something else? 3 days ago:
I have a CR-10s that I bought used. I asked the seller to ensure that it worked before I bought it. Most of my problems I had with the printer are due to me trying to make it print faster. If I had just downloaded Cura and used the default profiles it would have served me well.
Learning how to level a bed is probably the most significant skill you will need. It’s not too hard.
- Comment on Everyone has died and it is by sleeping 3 days ago:
As a mod, I thank you sincerely for your judgement.
- Comment on The mental health industry is probably profiting a lot from political turmoil. 2 weeks ago:
I see no reason that professionals shouldn’t be allowed to make money off of their profession. There are some opportunities for some perverse incentives in any industry, but that’s why licensing and ethics boards exist.
- Comment on The most valuable advertising keywords could be "ublock origin" 4 weeks ago:
It’s the last hurrah of advertising. It’s probably a good place to advertise a VPN.
- Comment on I feel like all current political debate is basically trying to choose between the three endings in the original Deus Ex. 4 weeks ago:
Rule 3 is no politics. Obviously there is grey area in the rule. It’s generous to say that this post is in the grey area but the post avoids being rage bait and no one has reported it yet.
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
If you define ‘need’ very loosely then the statement becomes pretty meaningless but I agree with it.
Otherwise there are many scenarios where I disagree with it.
There is lots of valuable talking that happens that doesn’t strictly need to be said.
Small talk is important for relationships.
Anyone learning a language needs to talk a lot just for the sake of talking. Even if nothing needs to be said.
Sometimes people need to be and feel heard to feel welcome in a group. It’s easy to say that the content of the conversation isn’t nearly as important as the act of having the conversation.

This post was reported. I agree it can come across as a bit agressive and arrogant.
I think the other commenters are doing a good job of pointing out the many perspectives on this post so I won’t take action for now.
- Comment on I don't mean to brag, but I made a killer joke on my company Teams group 😎 4 weeks ago:
😆
- Comment on Any advice for me a guy turning 18 yo old?? 4 weeks ago:
This was reported twice for not being a shower thought. The reporters are correct, it’s not strictly a shower thought.
But thinking about getting older is something we all do in the shower, for multiple reasons :)
Looks like people are mostly enjoying it so I’ll let it stay for now.
- Comment on An eggy smell is horrible if it comes unexpectedly, but arguably pleasant if you're eating an egg mayo sandwich 4 weeks ago:
Happy cake day!
- Comment on I just lost the game and so did you 5 weeks ago:
- if you lose the game you must announce “I just lost the game”
- Comment on Meh, I'm more of an Aragorn fan... 5 weeks ago:
Thank you. I didn’t understand it.
- Comment on BlueSky has drama so the Fedi-Marketers are waking from their slumber 5 weeks ago:
TIL Wafrn let’s you post on both Bluesky and mastodon wafrn.net
- Comment on if we all lived within close proximity of sock processing facilities we'd have fewer problems with socks 1 month ago:
Maybe this is a dumb question but what does a sock processing facility do?
- Comment on people who use AI a lot would probably be the most likely to get their exact wish from a genie. 1 month ago:
AI is kinda like the monkey’s paw.

I removed the thread. You are correct.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I did that. The top comment was a troll and the thread was feeding the troll and reporting each other. Here is the top comment.
Removed Comment: Since this is lemmy nobody can disagree with this opinion or post stats that discredit it without a ban. by reason: This is trolling. You are welcome to make claims and cite sources. This thread did neither of those. It was just bickering. Here is an example of claims with sources lemmy.world/comment/19389340
- Comment on User "threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works" is banning users for downvoting his posts. 1 month ago:
I made the list!
I upvote most of threelonmusketeers’ posts (voyager confirms my votes are net +44) , but my down vote finger gets itchy when I see a string of pro Elmo content.
Not sure about that specific case.
- Comment on It could just have been a cop's "sniper" with bad trigger discipline and now they try to cover it up with gay bullets or whatever 2 months ago:
This was reported for politics. It’s certainly related to a political figure’s murder. The post doesn’t seem like it’s playing into the politics of the situation, it’s not aggressively rage baiting so I’ll leave it up for now.
- Comment on if hate is categorically bad, then any sort of negativity is also bad. Even the word bad is bad. Being anti-hate actually has drawbacks 2 months ago:
One that LLMs can never get right is asking them to cite a textbook.
I’m not sure if it’s a deliberate inability due to copyright concerns.

This user was reported for being an LLM. I do agree that they have a very thorough writing style that is uncommon.

Mod here. This post was reported. I’m going to assume this is satire because it’s so dumb.
Please feel free to point out if I’m really missing something.

They were working pretty hard to wall their garden. This looks promising but I remain sceptical.

This is helpful. I’m just about to start a print with 2 year old filament.
- Comment on Software engineering may have been one of the few modern engineering roles that combine both engineering (designing) tasks and technical craftsmanship (coding) tasks. Maybe until LLMs gets perfected. 3 months ago:
Ever since CAD software was invented the role of mechanical/electrical engineer and drafter has largely been merged into one.
