@Meyerweb Uh...is there a standardized weight that applies to all Golden Retrivers now? Because really, .5?

@Meyerweb This tree has serious "Sierra game in the 90s" vibes to me.

@Meyerweb I'm amazed about the ".5 Golden Retrievers". I mean, clever. How much *exactly* does a doggy weigh? I mean, is this a constant? (I know, a decimal point suggests accuracy)
Besides, I always wonder how anyone came to think of a *decimal* point in some crude ancient obsolete unit.
I suggest to always put it like: "the truck weights 7 11/17 long tonnes". This offers many more ridiculous comparisons like: "that's 14 bathtubs filled to a quarter with hello of raspberry, 9 pups and 3 hamster's penises."
Perhaps we should convince our American "friends" that ANY metric measurements including decimal points are socialism. -

@Meyerweb LLMs must be responsible for these utterly bizarre comparisons

@WriteDragon @Meyerweb Aha. That’s good context to have & that’s very good! I stand corrected.

@Meyerweb Is the bottom image AI ? It has to be AI. I really hope it is AI.... It doesn't look like it is AI tho 😭

@Meyerweb Were the dog measurements really that precise that they had to say 109 and a half dogs? Why not just round up and say 110? When I assign homework, do I really need to specify that I want the answer to the nearest whole dog?
@AlexCorby @Meyerweb
I feel bad for the half dog they left out -

@Meyerweb why did they have to slice a golden retriever in half, the fucking monsters! 😭

If they didn't also cover the weight in cats, I'm filing suit.

Il disagio causato dalle #campane rumorose oltre i limiti di legge è diffuso. Riceviamo tante richieste di aiuto da persone esasperate allo sportello SOS Laicità.
Per difendersi dalle campane "selvagge" 👇

@oblomov @afreytes This is a hard balance to find, one that I struggle with, I feel :(
I think boundaries are good, but I also think it can be necessary to point people to the better behavior. It's like, a culture thing - you have to pay the cost of upkeeping the rules as a community, for them to be respected. And I would also like to know when I've forgotten alt text.
But how do you do that in a way that isn't offputting and annoying? How best to tell a stranger on the internet that CWs and alt text are good and expected here? Do you state it matter-of-fact? Point them to related reading? Try to write down the reasons, yourself? What's the tone you should use? I haven't been able to figure this out...

Ora dovrò cercare per bene i due testi e riconfrontare alla luce di Bechis su open , peròio ho ascoltato le motivazioni di Barbero e con la premessa che lui fa un commento politico e non tecnico giuridico ,
è tutto perfetto quello che dice !
Alla faccia delle parole e dei sottotitoletti che insinuano di Bechis 👹
