Exactly. I hate that among the options “is a huge moron” and “made a reasonable non-literal language choice”, the go to instinct is to instantly choose the former.

My brother in Satan don’t assume you know my feelings. I can find something horrifying in an abstract sense without being upset

politics @lemmy.world•Trump Ominously Says 'Project 2025' Author Has 'Big Surprises' In The Next Few Weeks
4·2 小时前Do you honestly think that will happen at this point? The only thing I ever want to hear about trump is that he’s suffering, died or is in prison. And yet I expect a few thousand more stories about him.

Crazy Fucking Videos@lemmy.world•Father Throws Chair at judge after Driver who Killed his Family got 120 Hours of Community ServiceEnglish
44·2 小时前Shit like this is why a TV series like Dexter could exist. Some people are walking around just fine with themselves after committing a heinous act. If it was an accident, fine, don’t hate yourself forever, forgive yourself eventually, but showing no signs of remorse is something only a trashfire of a person could do

I didn’t write it but to me “neurons firing randomly” in this context seems obvious to mean “this thing did some weird shit semi-randomly”. My only guess at a reason for downvoting this is taking it 100% literally and reacting “you idiot, computers cannot think!”
Apparently because every information source available will tell you to never do that and you seem proud of doing it?
putting hot lasagna in the fridge for hours at a time…
Deranged. You could literally cause food to spoil early doing this.
You clearly don’t work in the absolute freezing cold like this person does…
Erm, so do you have issues with extremes? Because burning your tongue should not happen often and that remains true even if you were eating food hot every time. What you describe as inevitable is something that happens to me like three times a year, only is bothersome for a couple days, and is thoroughly my own fault when it does happen.
Edit: you’ve caused me think at length about the difference in cold vs hot foods and it’s got me alternating between gag reflex and mouth watering. Weird.
This got downvoted several times and that’s a great reminder that the voting system is dumb af. Apparently people aren’t allowed to speak metaphorically unless they want to anger some users. 🙄

Steam Hardware@sopuli.xyz•[Discussion] I am finally in the Steam Machine reservation queue. Can you guys convince me to CANCEL my reservation?
11·5 小时前I hope your order is shipped soon! I really like this device. The experience has been pretty smooth so far, the performance is better than anticipated also. It functions well and it looks beautiful. The thing is tiny. I’m just running the stock SteamOS. I did not know windows was even an option on these actually.
The Mayans never said the world would end, they simply used a cyclical calendar.
“I make edgelord comments on Lemmy!”
Translation:
“I didn’t say anything transphobic. In this comment, that is. But I’m a trolling dipshit nonetheless. My transphobia will surface again later though.”
I have been to countries that make the US look trashless by comparison though. You should see some of the roadsides I saw. You could not even see the ground for the massive sea of plastic bottles.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL polar bears are fucking _massive_English
24·1 天前I have. I suspect though that it was because of this one day a weird mod was banning people en masse for downvoting their accusatory post where they listed a bunch of users they claimed are Zionists. With no evidence at all. Everyone who downvoted it got banned from their community immediately. Then I noticed the weird bot behavior a day or two later. I saw another user complaining about the same bots doing this to them also. If it’s that mod, it’s a very strange and spiteful thing to do but it wouldn’t surprise me. People are strange.

Programming@programming.dev•Self-documenting code: if the comment is doing the explaining, the code isn't
410·1 天前I have never gotten anywhere with coworkers arguing this. They write the dumbest comments and resist feedback in PRs. Now with LLMs we’re adding a bunch of unit tests that are about half comments. I cannot begin to express how useless these comments are. No one is going to read 15 paragraphs to understand a slop unit test. If that shit breaks it’s not going to be obvious why. Between the verbosity and writing style, these comments are some of the least grokable shit I’ve seen in my career. My coworkers have basically let me know that my feedback is noted but they disagree.












100% chance someone will get upset that you said “unprompted” because they’re going to take it entirely literally instead of as you meant it “seemingly without basis”
