I can't be the only one who thinks having a bot to go round pestering people for saying things like barmen is a little ridiculous right?

Bots on reddit are just so universally annoying and most of them provide no value at all. Most of them should have been banned on sight anyways.
I modded a niche outdoor community sub and I banned every bot that found its way there. Sorry, but we don't need a metric conversion bot nor a grammar correcting bot.
Yeah, because the best part of reddit was the human interaction, and having bots proliferate everywhere just kills that entirely.
The auto-tldr bot was/is pretty useful
Bad bot
Thank you for your feedback! This comment was totally unnecessary but come join us in r/botrank
"most bots" leave auto summarize bot, reminder bot, repost detection bot about of that.
There was one for a while that told you how many times you left a comment saying "nice." It had a leaderboard and the top ones had done it some tens of thousands of times.
I got a similar reply from a mod account (I forget which subreddit) because I used the word "crazy." Got linked to this list: https://www.autistichoya.com/p/ableist-words-and-terms-to-avoid.html
That's so dumb, I think you have to be going out of your way to get offended by the word crazy
dumb
omg your ableims is amazingly strong i bet u also like genocide and domestic violence omg
You think you can come on here and join the discussions without opposable thumbs!?
That page has to be satire... right?
The whole "police your language, so there's no chance anyone could ever be offended" idea is such an oppressive path to a more equal society.
Blind to ____ / turn a blind eye to ____ / blinded by ignorance/bigotry/etc. / double-blind review Refers to Blind, low-vision, or sight-limited people. Often used as a metaphor. Consider instead: willfully ignorant, deliberately ignoring, turning their back on, overcome by prejudice, doubly anonymous, had every reason to know, feigned ignorance
Those alternatives dont mean the same thing.
Double Annoymous seems better
it's just common joke, looks like dev got wooshed
I think dev is pointing out how poorly it was applied here; the whoosh is you.
By the way, Barmen is a city in Germany, in context to the original post
They should have replied:
0 rows changed. OK.
Or:
BOT.EXE: Command not found
just to see if the other guy keeps trying.
someone tell the bot author about xkcd #327
I'm pretty sure this exact XKCD was posted to Lemmy the other day and is most likely the reason this comment was made entirely.
it's a very very popular xkcd comic strip, much more in the programming community
because it's funny
get it? funny
i said a funny word ("funny")
Don't know why he's so annoyed, maybe you didn't throw his database, but still something happened, I'm pretty sure...
No, it's just a pretty lame joke that got repeated like five million times.
Unfortunately our community breeds an extremely self-referential, repetitive humour that can get quite annoying. Like that one guy pissing his pants laughing because 42 hahahaha.
That guys response is still only half as annoying as seeing continual bot spam, especially from useless pretentious ones that provide no value like this one
new inside joke just dropped
Little Barman Tables we call him
Nice! My mom used to do that.
Who tf even uses barmen I've never heard that before
It's the more common term in British English.
Right, it's clearly pubdudes
You dropped a middle 'e' there...
Anyone that has a production postgres deployment. For backups.
this was a joke from xkcd
Yeah, it is a joke on xkdc and the joke is based on SQL injection, a type of database attack.
How did the author know the poster was in his 40s? Or was it just a guess?
Who else is making sql injection attack jokes?
People like to creep through others' post history to try and find a basis for ad hominem attacks when their comment or argument isn't clever enough to stand on its own
Post history probably
