Little bit unfair as this was already an existing thing that got a new way to be triggered rather than a completely new feature needing code to handle not following symlinks.

To accurately guess you'd need to know that "don't follow symlinks in this particular scenario" already exists and we're just adding an OR to an if statement.

Who is upvoting this stupid bot? It removed the part of the article that makes this news.

Oh brother, if you're working, you're poor.

Is it the Norwegian guy?

Edit: Yes it's the Norwegian guy. He does this every year. Also his nominations are invalid. You're not allowed to publicise that you've nominated someone. Nominations are secret, they never announce that someone who was nominated "didn't win". I wish people would stop feeding this troll every year.

I'm downvoting you because you're annoying and a detriment to the conversation, not because you recognised an AI generated image, which really didn't require an inspection of the keyboard to determine.

Microsoft Copilot and Github Copilot are not the same thing, despite Microsoft owning both. Just a lot of people like the "copilot" image. I assume they'll eventually change one of the them to the similarly positive "Fuckbuddy" because "Crutch" sounds too negative

And famously, once you kill enough terrorists and take enough land, the rest sort of say "OK fair dues" and there are no more terrorists ever

Neeve in the north/east of Ireland, Nee-uv in the south/west where I'm from, making this meme even more annoying.

The Minotaur just had a bull's head, and sometimes a tail. Everything else was human. We usually imagine the shoulders as broad and bull-like too but the Greeks just went with bull's head (and sometimes tail, but just the tail, like when anime furries make cat girls. Yes I said it)

No they're saying the human half of a minotaur (from the waist down) and the human half of a merfolk (from the waist up).

Centaurs don't have horse heads, so they can't make a water horse.

New City, Nea-polis, the namesake of Neapolitan ice-cream. Better known as Naples.

The Greeks founding a New City in 507 BC: "I hope nobody makes bad, ill-informed memes about this in thousands of years."
