I used to work with a Michael Hunt. Brilliant guy and normally pretty chill, but woe betide anyone shortening it to it’s diminutive form. I accidentally called him Mike once and he literally never responded to me again.

Hahaha. A rented Opel was what came to mind for me as well. Followed by Plymouth Crossfire and Chevy HHR.

Lemmy now has export/import for settings, including blocklist.

How am I to tell who is a tankie, vs a wumao, vs a Russian bot troll? It can be hard to tell who is commenting in good faith.

I’m kidding, of course. I just block them all. No one using these talking points is worth my time.

Gotta love tankies unironically parroting Putin’s disinformation.

its pretty clear. You’re conversing with a tankie.

Just as an FYI, whether lie detector tests are accurate or not, lying in a polygraph interview for a federal background check is a crime. Polygraph interviews can and do sometimes lead to criminal prosecution.

wow. That’s a seriously shitty attitude, even if they did actually work for you, which … they don’t.

This sub is “Today I Learned”, not “Today You Learned.” OP just learned about it and wanted to discuss with other people. Seems reasonable.

And, indeed, though I knew most of this, I’ve still found some of the discussion interesting. What, then, is your problem? No one is forcing you to visit the thread at all.

even less know Rust.

Hmm. If only there were a way the developers who already know another popular language could contribute to help the community. I suppose someone could make a Lemmy -compatible server in another, more popular language. Nah, that’s crazy talk.

FYI, in case you did not notice: nutomic, the user you’re replying to, is one of the two creators of Lemmy. Make of that what you will.

People couldnt see the Grand Pricks because of the condoms. Dick move.

Unfortunately, some lemmy apps will hide the whole thread if a blocked user even comments on it. My favorite app does this, so if i want to block bigots, I am left with either missing features or missing large amounts of content.

Go on…

When I block someone, they can still see my comments, but I’ll never see them again, right?

edit: typical Lemmy. don’t ask a question, or you get downvoted.

Unpopular opinion: The open core model is underutilized.

A couple of hours, once or twice a month, with one or two close friends.

Stay mad. AI art isnt going anywhere.
