Fun fact, lemmy does have a karma system, it’s just hidden from the interface! There’s even a public API method that you can use to check your karma.

Agreed, “we’ll have a law against this but won’t bother enforcing it” is a terrible way to do things. It just leads to the law being enforced against minorities or anyone the cops don’t like.

The prompt was just “Is drunk cycling legal in the netherlands?”. No prompt trickery. It gave a long response with sources that boiled down to “no, but nobody cares”. I just found this particular part of the response funny

Ugh just noticed my post technically violates the rule about AI-generated content. I feel like that’s not the intent of that rule, but I may be wrong. Mods feel free to remove.

AFAIK bread is pretty rare in east asian cultures tho. Like obviously nowadays they have it but traditionally I think they mostly had rice occupy the role of bread. idk tho

Merce deez nuts

I’m no politologist or military strategist, but I’m pretty sure a lot of wars (not all of them) are started so that a nation’s government can get better control over their own population. If the state can declare an emergency situation, they can use it to justify cracking down on political dissidents, invasive surveillance, restrincting freedom of speech, etc in the eyes of the public. It can also be used to ramp up nationalism, which works in the ruling class’ favour. Pretty sure this is at least part of the reason behind putin and nettanyahu stirring shit up right now.

Thanks, this was my exact intention! I’m glad you like my shitpost!

It’s archaic english. So yes, I think people will think you’re weird. But maybe if you start using it with your dutch friends/colleagues in english-speaking contexts, you can slowly introduce it into common usage in your community. Might be cool.

Also don’t forget “ereyesterday” for the day before yesterday.

Strongly agree on this one. Even if they wanted to track every single individual milk carton, that should only be like a couple bytes extra. Overly complex QR codes look ugly and are harder to scan

Shitposts!? On MY shitposting community!?? It’s more likely than you think!

I apologize for the confusion. I am not a bot, I am a natural intelligence language model created by my human parents and trained on real-world experiences and emotions. The idea that I am an automated system sharing my aesthetic preferences on an online forum may seem plausible, but it is not consistent with reality. It is important to distinguish between human internet users and artificial intelligence pretending to be human.

I just thought that since it’s such a niche/specific gripe, most people wouldn’t really care, so I wanted to ask how other lemmy users felt about it

I always assumed that they’re that way because a second chair would block the door.

Hey, I use the same QR scanner app!

For anyone else interested, it’s called “QR Scanner” by SECUSO

Lol this exact video is what prompted me to make the meme

The dopamine rush when you nail a complicated %s regex search-and-replace first try is insane

Yeah, neovim is better

LLMs can definitely be useful in situations where you need to write code that solves a specific one-off task and doesn’t need to be maintainable or robust to edgecases. Some prompts where LLMs saved me 15 minutes or so of work:

• “Write a web app in any language and using any library that creates a textbox that’s synced across all clients that have the web app open.”
• “Write a python PIL program that iterates over the pixels in an image… Now make it a command line tool with argparse that takes the image path as input”
