Mr_Blott, in What about you?

My brain learning French - 'Yes, this makes perfect sense "

My brain trying to send French words to my mouth - "Christ on a fuckin bike, why are there so many vowels?!?

The worst between French and English is “I miss you”. It translates to “tu me manques” which breaks down to “you me miss” and neither makes any sense. Oh and “This makes sense” also doesn’t translates right “ça fait du sense” means nothing in French.

Mr_Blott,

Reflexive verbs can go themselves fuck

C’est logique.

You must be popular.

Prunebutt,

Missed calls? Found a boomer. \j

Thorry84,

I think they are a millennial, those are all the calls they got the past 6 months and they didn’t answer any of them.

This checks out.

Prunebutt,

And they never just call their mom.

Swap that out for Spanish, and that’s me.

4 years of it in high school, and the best I can manage is sounding like a drunk 5 year old that curses with what I’m told is a Mexico City accent because the girl I dated from Mexico City taught me the fun words.

Like, I would have to have a dictionary in front of me to apologize for my bad spanish and be clearly understood. That’s how bad my Spanish is. But in my head? I’m all suave and shit. And in my dreams, I’m bloody fluent. Awake? Not even close

samsy, in rules for thee, but not for me

My main account got a temp ban for 14 days, the first 3 days I just thought Lemmy is broken, again. My feed was lost, but “all” worked.

A notice or a simple warning would be nice the next time.

SigloPseudoMundo,

Yup, I got a 30 day ban & still don’t know why. Someone must’ve just gotten butthurt lol. I’m probably gonna make the same mistake again ¯_(ツ)_/¯

You were banned because you requested it according to the modlog

samsy,

Simply browse to your instance, go to moderations-log search your username and you find the reason.

tdawg, in AI can generate memes now. This could potentially lead to a new robot-communist era.

Just dont look at the eyes… Or the hands… Or the arms… Or the legs…

Or really all of it

qooqie, in birth control pills ended the baby boomer generation

I never really understood where this came from. Is it from the whole “customer is always right” culture they were raised with?

SkybreakerEngineer,

It comes from entitlement, and mistaking a postwar economic boom with massive government handouts for personal effort.

MonsiuerPatEBrown,
flerp,

The other name for the boomer generation is the “me” generation. because after the depression their parents had money again and gave them everything they wanted creating a generation of incredibly selfish people. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Me_generation

oatscoop,

Weird how the “Me Generation” called millennials the “Me Me Me Generation”.

Kase,

Meanwhile, gen z: the meme generation

Machindo,

Man that Time’s article seems so out of touch to me. I couldn’t finish it.

It’s just funny to see a 2013 take on millennials before I was even old enough to realize the shitty world we inherited from the Boomers.

ChicoSuave,

Just like an idiot, the typical boomer doesn’t understand why the saying exists or why it was started. They focus on just the surface level, and assume the rule for usage is the same as the title.

FunkyMonk, in birth control pills ended the baby boomer generation

Respect? I would settle for without the vitriol or 'hardsell' types.

Pixel, in Yummy

If this is real, I wonder why they didn’t just use charcoal to capture the same market that likes hotdogs (and potentially dislikes licorice)

neptune,

It’s not real. You can see the photo shop textures in the orange label. Also “black licorice” wouldn’t be an ingredient. It would be anise or natural flavoring that also happens to go into black licorice.

There is something we can do, we can enjoy the memes of the young and clever.

This means you fucked up

Bonehead,

Yeah, but the parents created the fuck up to begin with. So who is really at fault?

GrammatonCleric,
@GrammatonCleric@lemmy.world avatar

Sometimes the parents do everything right, but the child isn’t receptive. Also, there’s psychological disorders that can make any kind of parenting futile.

Croquette,

The parents. But still need to vent sometimes.

Bonehead,

Just like I told my father, you don't need to take it out on the fuck up.

XbSuper, in AI can generate memes now. This could potentially lead to a new robot-communist era.

Can it though? Sure doesn’t look like it to me, this is shit.

bizzle,
@bizzle@lemmy.world avatar

I don’t understand this take. Yeah, it’s shitty as fuck right now, but if you’ve been paying attention at all you’d understand how fast things are moving. It sucks today, sure, but in 6 months? A year? 5 years?

Anyway in my opinion we really fucked up with this AI thing.

Gonzako,

The deal is that AI is only good at remixing what’s already done. AI is never gonna be able to make an artistic desicion or create a new thing. What AI is good for is menial tasks like making ground textures and it still fucks it up.

That’s what memes are.

@agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works avatar

What evidence do you have that human creativity is anything other than remixing?

regbin_,

It might be shit now, that’s true for every new tech at its infancy. Let it cook for a while.

I’ve been messing with Stable Diffusion and LLaMA this whole year and it’s really fun stuff.

Some improvements I’d like to see, but maybe I’m missing something and could be a bad idea

  • The submitter gets notified if an action is taken on content they’ve submitted or on their account.
  • Define rules with a tally of how many times a user breaks each of them, with well-defined consequences that can be programmed.
  • The addition of polls
  • Restrict polls to users already subscribed to the community at the time of the poll creation, or with a minimum of xx days subscribed and/or xx amount of submissions, upvotes, etc
  • Have the rules voted by the community, and moderators elected/impeached by its community.
SomeoneElse,

I implement the first two and the last rules in all the communities I moderate. Everyone gets either a message or a comment if they break the rules/I remove their comment/I give them a warning. I also reply to the vast majority of mod reports made, explaining what action I’ve taken and why. All my communities have a one-warning-then-you’re-banned rule, but bans are rarely permanent.

I repeatedly state that I’m looking for moderators, that I welcome all constructive feedback and suggestions regarding the way the community is run and what the rules are. I make it clear I want the communities to be a community effort. I’ve never ever vetoed a suggestion someone’s made - I always offer to let the community decide. What happens? People complaining/criticising but never taking me up on the offer to hold a vote on whatever it is they don’t like. It’s like shouting in the wind and it’s exhausting.

vivadanang,

Have the rules voted by the community, and moderators elected/impeached by its community.

lol so you want to increase the amount of work mods do and then vote them out when they do shit you don’t like.

here’s an idea: become a mod yourself. do the unpaid work of cleaning up the trash so other people can whine in entitled posts like this about how all the mods are trash. jfc

mp3, (edited )
@mp3@lemmy.ca avatar

spoiler: am mod, and apparently asking for fairness and clear rules agreed by the community is being entitled now

then vote them out when they do shit you don’t like.

no, it’s vote them out when they do shit the majority of active members of the community don’t like.

Yes, it’s unpaid, doesn’t mean you’re entitled to the community itself.

explodicle, in Talking mad shit

This is missing the top panels!
