Lemmy used to hardcode it, and you would've needed to patch the code to remove it:

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/622

It's now editable in the admin settings of the site. I'm not sure if the Lemmy devs inserted a default value or if it was manually set by @jgrim@discuss.online, but right now it just filters that one word and variant spellings on discuss.online. So IMO not really censorship in the same way that lemmy.ml does it

Yeah, I copy/pasted the quote as-is, and Lemmy has a slur filter that automatically changes things to *removed*, which in this case made it more confusing.

I also don't get why he's old and she's not 🀷

See glowie if you're confused about the joke:

From glow +β€Ž -ie. Originated by Terry Davis, who stated in a 2017 video that "CIA removed glow in the dark", implying that they are conspicuous. The term "glowie" would become popular on the 4chan /pol/ board around 2019.

Oh thanks, should've clicked the back button before asking 🀦

For those too lazy to look it up:

18 The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham and Japheth. (Ham was the father of Canaan.)

19 These were the three sons of Noah, and from them came the people who were scattered over the whole earth.

20 Noah, a man of the soil, proceeded[a] to plant a vineyard.

21 When he drank some of its wine, he became drunk and lay uncovered inside his tent.

22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father naked and told his two brothers outside.

23 But Shem and Japheth took a garment and laid it across their shoulders; then they walked in backward and covered their father’s naked body. Their faces were turned the other way so that they would not see their father naked.

24 When Noah awoke from his wine and found out what his youngest son had done to him,

25 he said, β€œCursed be Canaan! The lowest of slaves will he be to his brothers.”

26 He also said, β€œPraise be to the Lord, the God of Shem! May Canaan be the slave of Shem.

27 May God extend Japheth’s[b] territory; may Japheth live in the tents of Shem, and may Canaan be the slave of Japheth.”

28 After the flood Noah lived 350 years. 29 Noah lived a total of 950 years, and then he died.

Reads like some weird AO3 fanfic worldbuilding. Just missing some mpreg

Is that referencing something? Did the New Yorker write an article critical of them?

[–] m_f@discuss.online 11 points 1 week ago (5 children)

Not really a question, but something to think about is being more strict about backwards compatibility so that people don't get burnt out on having stuff break. Coming from this post by the Tesseract dev, who did not like the breaking changes to the v3 API in 1.0: https://dubvee.org/post/2904152

To formulate that into an actual question, do you think the changes are still worth it and you'd make the same decision to break backwards compatibility?

You might enjoy reading The Egg by Andy Weir, if you haven't already

Blazing Saddles. It killed the western genre for a long time because of how well it parodied them

Don't say that too quickly. Now that I'm posting the old comics again, we'll see if it's any darker now than the early comics πŸ™‚

It's not a great joke either way, but I read it as either "Fooled you! You thought I was hallucinating but I'm joking!" or "Oh shit, I'm hallucinating, better play it cool and act like I was just pretending".

I think they're just riffing on Saiyan hair kind of resembling pineapple leaves. Similar joke a few days ago: https://discuss.online/post/16523545
