So that's it? All that money building the ferret cloning machine and then after it spits out the first one you're just gonna let them go back to making babies the normal way?

TIL Private Pyle is the Law and Order dude!

Now I wanna reticulate some splines.

Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't.

Yup, this is just a coordinated smear campaign from Big Integer.

No idea. Yamaha was doing pianos long before they were doing motorcycles, so it can't be them. I can't think of a company that started with motorcycles and then moved into pianos.

Really was trying for more Bea than Arthur, got more Arthur than Bea. This is the closest the bingolator would give without violating some rule or another. It's a shitpost, whaddya want?

Awful lot of strings that should have been integers. It is JavaScript, though, so I guess that tracks.

Seriously. The only time I listen to FM radio is when I take my wife's car to get an oil change. So maybe a total of twenty minutes driving time once every six months or so. Every single time, this song comes on. I don't get it. It was a one hit wonder from like 25 years ago. How is it still getting that much airplay?!

Somewhere between "it should be on its way now" and "I hope you know you're an (asshole)" There should have been a "thank you."

The fact that there isn't pretty well confirms who I'm laughing with and who I'm laughing at.

My new grill plate (sh.itjust.works)

This awesome new plate was my Father's Day gift from my daughter. It's fantastic, and huge, and it'll definitely be serving steaks tonight, and whole-ass briskets in the future. I just wanted to show it off to the dads here. All of a sudden I kinda feel a little sorry for all the dads that don't have their own custom daughter-painted grill plates. Hopefully you get one soon!

I'm glad there's a r/daddit equivalent on the fediverse. That was one of the most recent subs I'd found and joined before spez went crazy, glad some of you boys have migrated over here. Cheers, gents!

Edit: I've been schooled in the comments, this is no longer a thing, they've relented and allowed more control over the censor list. But hey, it's kinda funny still, so, feel free to keep reading if you like...

Original post follows.

Coming here from the Great #RedditMigration. When all of the alternatives were being discussed, one thing I noticed was that Lemmy seems to have one single global slur list that's literally hard-coded into the software. Your only option (as a server admin) is to either enable or disable it, but the words it's going to block are permanent and unchangeable unless you can talk the devs into updating the regex for the next release.

And I checked out some of their GitHub issues, and the devs seem almost militantly defensive of this. Like, they are not entertaining any suggestions at all to make it editable. Their actual solution is, if you don't like it, fork the repo and change it your own damn self, but we're not touching it, go piss up a rope. Don't mind one of the words they don't like? Too bad. English word is perfectly innocuous in your language? Piss off. Want to block the equivalent Djiboutian words? Believe it or not, go to hell.

Seems like such a weird hill to die on. And this is concerning as the lemmyverse is just taking off. This just seems like such an easy and obvious thing to make configurable for all kinds of reasons, and they're just closing down tickets. Not even a "don't have time right now but we'll put it in the backlog and get there soon". Just, nope.

So anyways. I dunno where I'm going with this really. I'm not in a position to really do anything about it. So this is just a rant I guess. But if the main devs of this thing we're all migrating to are this... I dunno, arrogant? Opinionated?... already, then what's gonna happen later when there are actual real issues that need addressed? We're leaving one spezhole and going straight to another?
