  • Pretty sure if you try and spell out the letters n, i, g, g,… and submit your comment or reply, it’s hardcoded on all platforms to remove the word. I’ve tried tellijg a story on the sync app for lemmy that involved a word that rhymes with maggot being said and even in quotes it only printed on the screen “removed” iirc. Context here implying it was the word someone said and not being used in the context of the comment. Not that it matters in a public forum but I point this out because the list we’re looking at is subreddit specific list of banned words that will trigger a bot to remove the automatically comment/delete the comment but still show a comment was made.

    With that being said I have no fuckin clue what im looking at for the rest of the drama. In the image. It’s 4 boxes that could be read L to R from the top or it could be columns where top L is 1 bottom L is 2 top R is 3…

    I think they didn’t like triggering their automated moderating system because what they felt was legitimate content. Little absurd to expect a reply from a real person mod in a span of a couple minutes tho.




  • Yeah but fucking still. I never would’ve imagined i was surrounded by more peers at any given Bills game than there were people accross the whole world contributing to Lemmy on avg. That’s sooooo fucking wild.

    It’s also so crazy how in a stadium of 70,000 people from US and Canada I will see someone i know every piss or beer break. Whereas Lemmy is half that amd I am 100% positive I’ve never interacted or saw a comment/post on Lemmy from anyone I know. It’s just crazy to see the perspective of seeing the odds of being 1 out of 70,000 vs being 40,000 out of 6 or 7 billion. Obviously I’m intentionally ignoring all the variables at play for the real reason I know people at bills games vs lemmy but it’s still the quntificatikn that I found amazin.






  • What is the depth of field option? When it’s on what happens vs when it’s off?

    Side question, why the fuck does everything in IT reuse fucking names? Depth of field means how far from character it’ll render the environment, right? So if the above option only has an on or off option then it is affecting something other than the actual depth of field, right? So why the fuck would the name of it be depth of fucking field??? I see this shit all the time as I learn more and more about software related shit.



  • We can try and try to remove bullying all together but it will never happen. It may be very different bullying style for dudes and chick’s or at least it was between 2000-2004 and maybe this stems from me always being the new kid. None the less it will always be a part of life. When you graduate, it’s not like everyone you work or fraternize with are all magically saints. The only way to avoid being bullied is to bully the bullies. I’ve never won a fight in my life as a skinnier dude around 5’7" but if you can be meanier than the people being mean to you, you’ll take all the fun out of someone who they can be mean to. Tell them the only reason their parents don’t consider your bully a mistake is because they were too poor to afford the abortion that your bully’s grandparents wanted their parents to have. If it’s a dude bullying you tell them you are jealous that they’ll never have to wear a condom fucking “so and so” (this is where you list All the girls they try to hook up with) then finish by saying “it must be nice to be able to raw dog any girl you fuck when they’d all be too embarrassed to admit they fucked someone as dumb and ugly as you.”

    The key is to only attack peers who attack the helpless. Dony necessarily team up with the other kids being bullied but make it very clear you are willing to go toe to toe no matter how far it goes. You will either end up befriending the bully, exposing the bully or gaining enough respect of your general peers for standing up for yourself that the bully will find someone else to take rage out on. Albeit, you have to be comfortable enough with yourself to allow your peers to think you are way crazier than you actually are. You also need to know when to stop. Do not take the low road by replacing your bully with you bullying them or others. You also have to understand that in life you will have to prove yourself over and over so by having one quick retort that made your class laugh is not a victory. If you are going to stand up to someone keeping you down, you only take action when you are ready to see this thru with best intentions while simultaneously planning to take an ass whooping… that or ignore everything you read and just learn to fuckin box.








  • I know 20 years ago Walmart was the face of corporate evil but hear me out. They have had 1 company MO and have never wavered from it, providing affordable goods at the lowest possible price to the consumer without any bells or whistles. No coupons, no buy 3 get 1 free, no sketchy pricing based on bullwhip procurement.

    My message here is to encourage anyone like myself who is fed the fuck up with Amazon, Google and Microsoft shitting on every product they put out all rhe while cutting all operating costs from any semblance of customer support. I call Walmart every year to check how much .22 ammo they have around deer season to get my tags and the winters supply of varmint ammo in one trip. Every year I speak to a real person even if it rings for a hot minute.

    For about the same price as Amazon prime, I have Walmart “prime” that comes with free delivery of not just market place shit but also same day grocery delivery. They dont spread themselves too thin like literally every single corporate giant out there. They were better equipped than Amazon to get into the market place industry and they are killing it. While every other shit head company is dumping billions into AI (Walmart might be too idk so take this with a grain of salt) Walmart invested billions into developing their drone delivery project.

    Tldr: I encourage everyone who likes simple affordable products from a straight forward without any bullshit to give the Walmart equivalent of Amazon prime a shot.

    Edit: One other perk point for uncle Wally is it isn’t a snake payment deal like 9.99/month of never ending monthly payment, maybe they do offer that now but when I signed up it was a single flat payment for 1 year and I get 2 emails letting me know it’s coming due for next year and the second being the invoice. They dont spam you, force apps on you, value your data more than you or the product you’re buying. Fuck i could keep going with how pleased I’ve been with Walmart.


  • Lol why even comment if you know nothing about bail or the context of what a ball or half ball is? It’s a half a ball of coke so 1.5 grams cuz a ball is 3 grams. As for the bail, where the fuck have you ever heard of bail being set for $120 🤣. Bail is a tool used by the justice system to combat flight risk offenders. They set it either just high enough to make sure the person shows up to their court dates so they get their bail money back or they set it so fucking high the offender can’t pay it and must remain incarcerated from the date bail was set at the arraignment until the case is complete. The latter is used for people with a history of not showing up to court or for people who are extreme risks to the public.
