@neural_meduza Привыкнут, что им лапшу на уши вешают? 😄

@kravietz @osma @chowderman
Well anyway, it's in the past now as US seems to have registered an explosion — that is proof I was waiting for. Zelensky's words alone weren't enough this time, sorry. Because I know quite well that as much as Russian military command is evil, it's also stupid.

I don't think that is shifts the blame though. It's still a dam, not a child's toy — if you occupy it, be responsible!
When the first news arrived I have dismissed "the accident" version (UA attack was never even a version to me), but then I grew less skeptical to it because in addition to malice Russian management is known for sheer incompetence. They might have planned to destroy the dam — there is solid proof of that, but not now, not at this particular day.

@chowderman That is how propaganda works when some serious shit hits the fan: they don't give you a single false version, that is consistent and believable, they give you 15 different ones to choose from, maybe your bias will help you pick one that works best for you. And of course the sweet taste of "we will never know all the truth" — like it's impossible, truth is relative, pick whatever you want to believe. Journalists who try to pick the middle ground always fall into this trap.

@kravietz

@kravietz Exactly! They use the same technique over again and again, same trick as with MH17. There was a popular image on that, I don't have it at hand, it was in a form of an Excel table with three columns: UA version, EU version and RU version. UA version was "MH17 was brought down by separatists with Russian BUK", EU version is vague in the beginning, but gains details with every iteration, RU — 15 totally different random versions, sometimes the next one contradicts the previous one.

@thor It indeed is! This one's good, another one of my favourites is that three panel image macro with stills from "I Robot":
 — Can AI draw hands?
— Can you?
— …
And Will Smith's character holding his hands interlocked, but his fingers are all wrong 🤣

The beach one is quite subtle though, that's what makes it even funnier!

@thor What can be more beautiful than two pretty ladies watching sunset on the beach holding ha… Wait, WHAT?!!! 😆

@neural_meduza Заманчивое предложение, но сегодня не могу 😉

Спокойствие… 😏

@neural_meduza

@mrissi_neko I'm like that too!
Sometimes I come up with a proper response in a week or even more only to realize that post I was intending to reply to is already gone😔
So don't take too long!

@LupusGelupus@berserker.town unicode.org/reports/tr51/#gend

I use gender-neutral emojis because they are 9 bytes shorter 😏

@dvd @jk
All cats are different: one of my cats loves being thrown onto the bed and rolled around it — he likes more calm interraction too, but he really enjoys this😹
My other cat isn't like that at all, sometimes when she's looking for a place to lie beside me even patting her can ruin her mood and she runs away.

@DragonBox Even the font is a bit different, but that RetroTine logo still looks scary to me 😅

@mjdxp A geek trap? 😅
I wonder what your "freeform" games of The Incredible Machine looked like — the ones in which you don't have to solve puzzles, but can use any objects for your own pleasure.

@thor
False! We don't post facts to bore you!
Fact: we only respond with facts that contradict the memes!
🤣

@haverholm@imaginair.es I do my best to always add descriptions, but…😅
I think effort should be put into automating it already instead of shaming people who don't. Adding simple OCR isn't that complex in 2023.
I don't think this has to do with ableism — some people are just lazy, that is why automation will do the trick, they don't do it not out of malice.
And this doesn't necessary have to do with visually impaired — I have perfect vision, but I still appreciate the descriptions when I'm using TUI software.

@splitshockvirus My friend just told me on Matrix and I have as last realized what had happened, despite seeing like 10 posts about it on Fedi. You guys are so nonstraightforward 😂

@wgiwf Last catgirl is so cool!
Might be a foxgirl though. Disguised as catgirl. Have to run a background check on her 😸
@theorytoe

@thor Well, I can't deny they are likely to have problems with that — just like everyone having a hectic work schedule, but that image is still an exaggeration I think. A joke — just like my post was 😄
