  • genuinely why the fuck has my favourite writing tool, the em dash, been forever tainted by ai

  • The - seen on most keyboards corresponds to Unicode 002D and is known as the hyphen-minus. It does the duty of hyphen and minus as it's name suggests, and dash in some cases.

  • Wikipedia has a longer article on their usage: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DashBut what Erika says is the short version.

  • Haha. Yeah, it's slightly unrealistic in that you probably wouldn't actually ever say that. But this is inspired by the tagline.

    Also I had to manually add the PPB because images (and therefore emojies) don't work in dms anymore.

  • Maybe. Thanks for the recommendation at least.

    Do you have any ideas for websites I could block with reason "revisionist," I have tankie.tube, but I need another or two (similar to tankie.tube. hexbear won't do)

  • Something I didn't see in yesterdays code review.

    if your reply contains a blocked_phrase, it won't accept the comment.

    Seems like Lemmy's slur filter, but worse in that it just won't accept the comment (and I think that all of these things I have linked to in PostReply.new() where it won't accept a comment, results in federated comments... just never showing up on a piefed instance)

  • If your comment is nothing but starts wtih a link to a gif reaction it will decrease your reputation and not accept the comment

    Just a line below that if your reply_is_stupid it won't accept it either.

    If your account is created_very_recently and the reply contains an em dash (—) it sends a notification to the admins

    If your attitude is < 0.0 you cannot downvote either. Attitude is as the code says: "(upvotes cast - downvotes cast) / (upvotes + downvotes). A number between 1 and -1 is the ratio between up and down votes they cast"

    If your reputation is <= -10 you cannot create new chats.

    If your account has less than 100 reputation you are not considered trustworthy (what things you can do when you are trustworthy I don't know, but again literally social credit score)

    If you have 0 posts, 0 replies, and your username is specifically 8 characters long, you cannot vote

    Mods can kick you from a community which unsubscribes you from that community

  • And hey, if your reputation is severely bad (<-10) you cannot downvote

    We had a code review yesteday, and this is only half of what we found.

  • Did you know, attempting to upload an image with "Anonymous" and ("No." or " N0") can[1] decrease your "reputation"[2] and you might[1] be denied that upload, with as the code itself states: "deliberately misleading error message". Source

  • Yup. Of course, replies to that reply will also never show up. So this is one of the reasons I wouldn't use piefed, if user A has blocked user B or instance B, you won't see the reply from user B or instance B and replies to that reply (regardless of who or from where). So there can be an entire interesting discussion being had that you as a user on some piefed instance cannot see, not because you blocked someone or an instance but because someone else did.

  • such as not displaying replies publicly if a blocked user replies to someone

    This is slightly wrong, it's not that it doesn't display it, it's that it completely drops the comment. The comment is never added to the instance's database. It also is never federated, which I believe has the result that if you are talking on a community on the same instance as the blocker, the comment never makes it to other instances.
