I was really puzzled by it until I realized it’s supposed to be the “stop” button. ▶️⏸️⏹️

Now I am cringing at someone who would deliberately choose being so obtuse and cryptic.

Yud "It's just a joke bro": The lack of punctuation makes it an obvious joke! Let me spend the rest of this thread defending the divine truth of this joke to the bitter end.

The saddest thing is that transparency is sort of good advice, but his twisted soul sees others as tools rather than people, I guess in his case transparency lets people know to stay clear.

Not since 2013! https://gs.statcounter.com/browser-market-share/all/belarus/2014 still has a large presence though. (20% in poland!)

I'd go further and combine it with the similarly good "Potemkin AI" to make "Potemkin Botshit"

Presumably this ought to quicken to death of Twitter, so it's not necessarily ALL bad news. In the meantime there is always copy paste, it's not perfect receipts, but it's sufficient for most sneering purposes.

EDIT: It is a bit nuts considering the number of Official Agencies world wide that issue press releases on twitter, and not really anywhere else convenient to access by the general public (Although that is also them displaying questionnable practices.)

No empire was ever born before 600 BCE (no no, the egyptians don't count), and no clear works of fiction, intended mostly to be dessiminated thorugh text ever existed before the 11th Century (You can dismiss anything prior as mere works of philosophy, poetry or mythology)

Happy holidays!

Only solved by receving heavy hints from other's solution, and it still took me forever. By far the hardest this year.

Completed when waiting for the second leg of my Christmas holidays flight. (It was a long wait, can I blame jet-lag?).

Have a more compact implementation of LCM/GCD, something tells me it will come in handy In future editions. (I’ve also progressively been doing past years)

Replying in OP: Yeah, Lemmy punishes old threads/posts a bit too much for my taste ^^.
