Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Which computer-related belief do you hold without any foundation?
4·3 days agoIn order to keep printers working properly they require regular blood sacrifices, tears are also acceptable. Most printers get these by accident as people clear paper jams, refill ink or toner cartridges, etc. Some printers clearly behave and perform better long term than others. More complexity (colors, 2 sided printing, large format, etc.) usually correlates to a larger thirst for blood/stress/anxiety. Remember Colin Robinson, the psychic vampire from “What We Do in the Shadows”? I’m pretty sure his spirit animal would be a color inkjet printer/scanner combo from late 90’s.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Oi fancy a bidda footy innit bruv?
203·3 days agoThis is why the fuck: american football evolved from Association Football (soccer) and rugby. Americans didn’t take over the name, the names for each version of the “ball game on a field with goals at either end” developed from different regional slang as each sport evolved and grew into popularity in their respective places. Each of those sports developed various shortened or slang versions of their name. Rugby was really Rugby football. Association football became soccer, a term coined in London and adopted by Americans. Gridiron football evolved from both and become what Americans just called football.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Gig work is just turning the poor class into servants. And adding further debt to other poors trying to use these services.
2·5 days agoThat’s just a taxi company with extra steps, extra wage theft, and fewer worker protections.
What’s wrong with spouse? Have people forgotten that thesaurus exist? Spouse is already gender neutral, literally means married partner, and doesn’t sound like a corporate speak buzzword to make the drones feel like family.
There is a poetry community that is kind of active on Lemmy.world. They also like to post poems as images (to preserve formatting and line breaks I suppose). I’m curious to see their reaction to a post like this. It would certainly stand out.

Wikipedia@lemmy.world•Cop slide (that one in Boston where a cop got hurt sliding down it)English
7·10 days agoHave you actually seen it first hand? My impression after hearing about it on 99% Invisible (a design podcast) was that the cop exited with such a great velocity specifically because it was designed for children sized people, not adults. Not trying to start an argument, just curious.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•A long-ass way to write 'not parmesan'.
2·10 days agoThis was great. For an encore, can you write an eloquent defense of American milk chocolate. American Cheese is to the grilled cheese sandwich, as Milk chocolate is to s’mores.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Your parents in 640x480 glory.
41·11 days agoIt angers old people because of the poor grammar and bad maths habits, not because children are implying they’re old.

22·11 days agoThe 1900s would still only be like 1909 at the latest. You’ve got too much precision and called out the wrong decade. This floppy form factor was invented in 1981, peaked in popularity and was replaced by CDs by 2000. Spanning 2 decades in the late twentieth (20th) century, not the late 1900s. See the difference in the number of digits? That difference in the number of stated digits is significant.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you call the comedy shows/pranks where a person interacts with somebody based on instructions from another person who talks to him through an earphone?
1·13 days agoThey are named after the show that started it, Candid Camera.
Maybe you’re referring to the inprov spin-off of this idea, where even the “prankster” doesn’t know what’s going to happen until they receive secret instructions. Probably still called a Candid Camera type show, but I’m sure that’s not the name of the specific show.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you call the comedy shows/pranks where a person interacts with somebody based on instructions from another person who talks to him through an earphone?
1·13 days agoThe boring answer is that the “victims” sign a release after the prank. People that start throwing punches are probably unlikely to sign that release. Also, back in the day these things were done by professionals, harmless, and a well known phenomena. Imagine Dick Clark types, not Johnny Somali.
Regardless of the original reason, it keeps drips from running down the neck all the way to the bottom, which can stain surfaces with surprising tenacity.
