If words are an ordered set, then mormon = morn

Words are a base 27 integer. (mormon - mon) / a000 + on = moron

themusicman,

That’s not true. Apostrophes can be used to make acronyms plural, and there are cases where not doing so is clearly wrong (e.g. Oakland A’s)

themusicman,

If the ads were added to the video stream (I assume this is what you’re suggesting) they can be easily skipped by scrubbing the timeline. On the other hand, if they add metadata so the client can make them unskippable, the ad blockers will have something to work with. Classic catch 22.

Which YouTuber's voice can lull you to sleep?

I’ve exhausted things I can sleep to on Netflix, and it’s literally impossible to sleep to things on Prime (so I barely watch anything there; it’s not worth falling asleep to something I like, since I might be punished for it), so I’ve started putting on YouTube in the evenings since it won’t wake me with silence at...

themusicman,

Yeah season 3 was a bit crap

themusicman,

Lol I disagree, but I can appreciate this point of view

What’s the Lemmy community? I’m already subbed to sourcememes.

Edit: oh yeah that’s just you. Enjoying your content and will try to post occasionally

themusicman,

I really enjoyed S1 and was worried S2 would get stale. Holy shit was I wrong

themusicman,

It’s not a trade off between dev time, execution time and memory as the author claims. It’s materially worse for all 3

themusicman,

On reread, you’re totally right. Went right over my head

themusicman,

The issue is not that the large image was uploaded. The server should always store the highest quality available, and serve whatever resolution is requested by the client.

I consider this a bug with Lemmy

themusicman,

That’s a choice for the parents to make. I would never take that risk as an uncle

themusicman,

You mean, literally the example at the end of their (very thorough) explanation?

themusicman,

Well that’s my attempt to understand a novel point of view for today… I can now hopefully say I’m no longer “ignorant”, I simply disagree.

Any word which describes something seen as negative takes on a stigma. Those sympathetic to the victims of the stigma will blame the word and insist on a new one. The new word gains the same stigma while the old one loses its original meaning and takes on a new one based entirely on the stigma itself. Rinse and repeat and we slowly build a lexicon of words which are problematic for reasons forgotten by society. A special few retain or rediscover the original meaning, and thus we have a perfect misdirection from the vast and growing wealth and power inequality orchestrated by our capitalist overlords.

themusicman,

I must be missing context, because this post is word salad to my brain

themusicman,

Sites can use anything - they’re just numbers ¯_(ツ)_/¯

themusicman,

Topol’s comedic timing on this line is legendary. I imagine the meme falls a little flat for people who haven’t seen it

themusicman,

Hardly a culinary expert, but wouldn’t roasting it first actually develop the flavour of the stock more?

themusicman,

Gotta say, this is almost harder to follow than the legalese
