  • In what way does taste determine the genre of a work of fiction?

  • The more accurate, yet not at all funny interpretation

  • I thought it defined gender based on the reproductive cell one's body produces, e.g. the producer of the larger cell is female, the smaller is male.

    It specifies that, yes, but at conception. For the entire first trimester, everyone has ovaries.

  • I do like the member only idea. At least it'll require that spammers donate before causing trouble and getting banned.

  • @SDF@lemmy.sdf.org, the user in question is @Mikal8871@lemmy.sdf.org. They created an NSFW community, didn't tag it as such, and have been spamming porn onto the server with missing NSFW tags. 99.9% chance it's the same bad actor who just got banned. Please ban them and maybe put a freeze on new accounts till we can add more admins willing to ban bad actors like this.

    I would also be willing to volunteer as an admin for moderation purposes, if necessary.

  • I think the correct term is spammed. We're being spammed by a single new user, who is presumably the recently banned nazi using an alt to throw a tantrum.

  • Doubly so now that students are beginning to authentically write like ChatGPT since they spend so much time chatting it up.

  • The missing word in the title is Media. Should be "Anime and Other Media Piracy"

  • And what do you think he wants from Canada? As far as I can tell he just doesn't like Trudeau

  • On the other hand, the need for our generation's Smedly Butler isn't exactly a good sign.

  • Well yeah, but the US authoritarians tend to be right wing instead of left wing in their justifications of absurd state violence. They've been extremely prominent since at least the whole "freedom fries" era.

  • I've been a Linux user for nearly 20 years and my main gaming rig is Mint because it's convenient and gets out of my way when it's time to game.

  • Given that it's effectively 720p, you can probably run a decent number of 3D games, even. For sure anything 2D should run fine unless it hammers the CPU like Dwarf Fortress.

  • Meh, mensa has some standards. This is even more blatantly a scam.

  • Halp!

  • They have a higher rate of arthritis, but they're significantly healthier overall than comparable dog breeds like Dachshunds or Corgis.

  • Pcpartpicker.com has compatibility filters and ratings, which makes picking out all the best parts in the price range a snap.

  • The biggest issue being that despite having operational fabs here, TSMC still needs to ship their wafers to Taiwan in order to process them into chips.

  • Sorry, did we invent reasons for the rest of our South American coups? We did like 20 of em in the last century. Just pretended the CIA wasn't involved.

  • ChatGPT couldn't find the original punchline but Gemini is claiming it's the following:

    "Because they have big balls!"

    Anyways even if that's made up, it's way funnier than ChatGPT's made up punchlines, and about par for a Laffy Taffy joke.

    Edit: ChatGPT and Claude both independently came up with "Because they're natural at picking up spares!" which is awkwardly phrased by modern standards and oddly specific, so I wonder if that might be the original punchline. A ton of those laffy taffy jokes are just not funny, so it's possible. Either that or two different LLMs have the same exact sense of humor.

  • And as we all know, popularity is the ultimate measure of good taste and scientific accuracy. /s
