Would be something if they enforced that equally, but I’m sure you can find any number of other manifestos posted through out the site.

Let’s see if even Mitch McConnell would confirm this guy given that he had polio. Don’t have much faith though.

You are right. The normies don’t want to use Lemmy if it looks like it does today. Hell, the only reason I use it is because of a sleek mobile app.

There is a reason though. It’s because you probably want to put dates in order and when you ask a computer to sort things for you, it will automatically order things correctly when the date follows this format. If you put the month first, then the day, then the year, the default sorting behavior will order things incorrectly chronologically speaking.

I'll fill you in. If you're like me, you found this post in your general feed. Apparently, these folks seem to forget that lemmy is federated. Mostly people on Lemmy are good-natured, but it seems we've stumbled into a community of "edgy" folks who are smarter than you and I (ie. bitchy, sourpusses) and like to be negative about some "mainstream" tech news. Because these folks are smarter than us, they REALLY didn't like it when we did some basic research and inadvertently refuted the basic premise the top poster was advancing with his image of AI messing something up -- which is that AI is bad and most technologists are big dumb idiots. And while we’re at it, so are you if you don’t join them in making any comment, bad faith or not, against whatever the trending tech topic of the day is. Below me, is a comment from mod David Gerard encouraging this kind of toxicity, who apparently makes his living complaining about trendy tech topics despite selling merch through the same tech companies that make the tech he finds so awful. Anyway, I have no real energy over it. I wouldn’t call myself a techno-optimist. But, I do find insufferable cunts to be insufferable. Apparently, this instance also hosts a community called “sneerclub,” which David Gerard moderates and its entire purpose is just mocking people. It’s interesting when you turn over a rock and find some truly ugly people. All the better when you can block them, so you don’t have to encounter them again.

It’s past annual enrollment, but you better believe I’ll be ditching UHC next year.

The guy is an idiot troll. Ignore him.
