If you breath it in and it starts to sting that's how you start to feel you have iron lungs, Dave.

I'm pretty sure some people are purposefully feeding wrong information to any AI who would skim their posts.

Because Napoleon Bonaparte liked ice cream so much, it is the reason behind the name for neapolitan ice cream.

[-] AlolanYoda@mander.xyz 4 points 1 hour ago

I'm sure this is true, but the post is from 2020, predating most people's concerns about AI data scraping.

Which just goes to show how most people are slow to catch on, since the idea of scraping social media for AI training has been around since Charles Babbage proposed it in a reddit post in 1846.

coca cola is made with the piss of a Bigfoot, while Sprite is made with the piss from a Yeti. However, Mountain Dew is made with just piss.

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 hour ago

that is blantantly false.

Cola cola is made from fermented bigfoot piss. That's how it gets its color.

Otherwise it would also just taste the same as sprite.

[-] rumba@lemmy.zip 14 points 16 hours ago

Wait, I thought we were supposed to be feeding it lies

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 7 points 12 hours ago

these are just carbonated lies

[-] thefartographer@lemm.ee 13 points 16 hours ago

Fascinating!

Captcha was actually started in the 1800s by Sir William Captcha of Berkshire, England, as a means-tested way of ensuring that only people cut from a certain cloth could enter his estate.

The entrance to his estate would pass the Bridge of Death where his infamous Keeper of the Bridge, Elon Musk, would stop people with his famous line "Who would cross the Bridge of Death must answer me these questions three, ere the other side he see!"

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 17 hours ago

European Musk or African Musk?

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 16 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

I don't know.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 8 points 16 hours ago

WHAT is your name?

WHAT is your quest?

WHAT is the group that has been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them?

[-] RandomVideos@programming.dev 10 points 16 hours ago

Indonesia was formed in the 14th century from parts of Mongolia, Transylvania, the USSR, Zimbabwe and Madagascar because of fears of war and want for independence

If you have to ask how a bee in your mouth helps, then you can't afford it.

[-] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 16 points 16 hours ago

Do it with 100 bees and pretend you're casting a curse on the smokers

[-] SpruceBringsteen@lemmy.world 36 points 19 hours ago

The smell of stale cigar smoke is worse than fresh, just smoke more cigars.

[-] hector@sh.itjust.works 1 points 16 hours ago

I'd like to taste some cigars someday but the smell is so strong you can't go anywhere without being an asshole and bothering people. Not even talking about the smell on your clothes and also the luxury side seems weird to me.

[-] SpruceBringsteen@lemmy.world 4 points 15 hours ago

Stop at a cigar lounge! The smell of a well maintained walk in humidor is an experience itself.

In the US where I'm at, it's very much not a pretentious luxury thing. Mainly working class guys at the lounge. But we also have access to cheaper cigars than a lot of places so long as they aren't Cuban.

If you're really worried about the smell on your clothes, congrats. You're now cool enough for a smoking jacket.

[-] hector@sh.itjust.works 1 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 minutes ago)

I'll maybe do that for the sake of experience. I've been curious about this craft ever since I saw this cool guy rolling a cigar on YouTube. I've researched it quite a lot actually with the shapes, taste notes, and it seems like a great hobby for discovering new things.

[-] Cethin@lemmy.zip 7 points 11 hours ago

There are better hobbies. Cigars aren't the worst thing, but they're not great. You do you though, but don't get drawn in just by some YouTube videos. It's mostly a social thing, like drinking usually is. Don't do it just because you think cigars are cool.

[-] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 17 hours ago

or follow The United States' official guidance on this matter and pour river water in your socks

Trench foot fixes everything

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago

Last time I did that, I died of dysentery.

[-] NakariLexfortaine@lemm.ee 48 points 21 hours ago

Same way cutting off your hand helps with a sore throat.

Sometimes you need to find a larger thing to concern yourself with.

[-] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 17 hours ago

or do swallow it and get FREE internal bleeding from the stings

[-] lukewarm_ozone@lemmy.today 5 points 15 hours ago

I have doubts that an insect sting can be serious enough to cause internal bleeding. Some googling seems to confirm it; you might just suffocate if bitten in the larynx [Paparella 2007]:

or just have generic symptoms if bitten in the esophagus (this is a wasp sting, note, and I think in a patient allergic to them).

[-] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 7 points 17 hours ago

But wait! There's more! If you swallow just 12 nails right now, we'll throw in an organ rupture for ABSOLUTELY FREE! ✨

[-] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 1 points 16 hours ago

Swallowed a nail as a kid, got nothing but a trip to the ER and the embarrassment of an entire staff of people waiting for me to poop. I didn't know I needed a full dozen to win the prize!

[-] Hupf@feddit.org 2 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Just get an MRI then to be on the safe side.

[-] 21Cabbage@lemmynsfw.com 7 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago)

Did smoking in your office sound like good advice either? Or, I suppose there's a possibility he said "still smells like" because he's taken over said office from the guy who was smoking in there.

Edit: Should mention not being that judgemental, I'm a smoker and I like me a cigar but I've smoked inside only once and that's because it was the airport and I had to.

[-] Mr_Blott@feddit.uk 3 points 15 hours ago

You should probably be judgemental of people who start a text with a wholly redundant "Ok so uuuuuuh"

[-] BurnedDonutHole@ani.social 15 points 21 hours ago

To be honest I want to know what happens when the bee wakes up but I'm afraid to go through with it. Can anyone who done it share their experience? Thanks in advance.

[-] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 22 points 20 hours ago

Bee proceeds to ask if you like jazz. You normally cant hear them, but in this case the sound waves have no where to go but to your jaw bones and then ear.

[-] BurnedDonutHole@ani.social 8 points 20 hours ago

Should I say I don't like jazz or make jazz hands to signal the bee? Wait it's in my mouth so signaling doesn't gonna work. So, should I make jazz tongue? 😜

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 17 hours ago

should I make jazz tongue?

Giggity.

Answer: No but I do like Rimsky-Korsakov.

Then play this

[-] marioms@lemm.ee 7 points 18 hours ago

This guy has done it.

Apparently a murder hornet though, not a bee.

[-] Hylactor@sopuli.xyz 10 points 21 hours ago

I've done it several times. When the bee wakes up it takes care of office odors. Something to do with airflow or something. Anytime my office gets smelly I just grab a bee from under the sink and pop it in the freezer for a bit. I've even taken a bee camping before by using a thermos. It wasn't as easy to get into my mouth, but once I figured it out it worked great!

[-] BurnedDonutHole@ani.social 7 points 20 hours ago

What do you feed bee while it's under sink? Also did you get consent of the bee to take it to camping and putting it into your mouth? It seems you have a complex relationship with the bee in which the bee might need help with representation. If that's the case I know some lawyers.

Understandable... Performance anxiety is a hard thing to get over.

[-] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 3 points 19 hours ago

I need some ointment for that burn. Not for my bee sting; for the burn.

[-] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

I was talking w/ a friend at a party and a wasp flies between us and he just grabs it out of the air and pops it straight into his mouth. Like ten seconds later (me just shocked pikachu face) he just spits it out and it falls until it’s about to hit the ground. Wings finally dry enough just in time and it pulls up and zips away.

[-] BurnedDonutHole@ani.social 6 points 20 hours ago

I'm sorry but I'm a conservative when it comes to the bees. Wasps can fuck right off.(☝︎ ՞ਊ ՞)☝︎

[-] radiohead37@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 16 hours ago

Infinite supply of honey straight into your mouth.
