Extra virgin

I prefer lightly fucked.

Screw it, I'm not picky, give me the full slut.

I'm pretty sure almost no nerds use chatgpt, as chatgpt kinda takes the nerdiness out of the nerd.

Script kiddy might fit better, looking at stackoverflow from the past half year.

Isn't this the plot of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann?

w/ appears to have origin in the food industry some 70 years ago (according to this question).

To me it makes sense, as I first encountered it in video games where abbreviations, acronyms, and text-saving-slang are commonplace. Furthermore, while abbreviations usually have multiple letters (in written text, not physical or mathematical equations), single letter abbreviations can quickly become confusing, so I belive that this is the reason for putting a slash behind it, or possibly a bar above it.

RANT: While I know that language changes all the time, I find it very unfortunate that this little fellow o/ and possibly his slightly more formal friend o7 have become synonymous with "nazi salute". First off, it's the wrong arm! And second off, what do you have against "man waving" and "man saluting"?

It must be very confusing for someone who uses this newer definition of o/ to visit the Elite:Dangerous forums.

EDIT: I'm very happy that I apparently am the only one who has met people who don't know the real meaning of o/ and o7. I feared that this was a widespread problem, but luckily it appears that I simply am a worrywart.

Aliases are just bloat! You can do just fine without them. Heck, why not remove the ASCII conversion and read everything in hex or binary?

It's all about SPEED and efficiency here!

That's just standard equipment for professional shitposters.

Wait, that's how that happens? I always found it weird with those signs to not poop while standing up.

On your VPN, choose a location within your country. There is little sense in choosing another country, if you want the website to think you are in your own country.

Of course this assumes, that your VPN has multiple exit nodes.

They probably opened r/place as an outlet for anger; some temporary bad reputation now, so that those who are butthurt will shut up.

It is indeed a flaw, though it is in itself already a fix for the single-instance services, such as Reddit.

If an instance becomes unavailable/defederated on the fediverse, a large portion of content will become unavailable, but the service will still be functional. If a single-instance service becomes unavailable, or if the admins do something stupid, ALL data will be jeopardized.

I know that this might not be the answer you seek, but I think it helps adding perspective to the problem.
