Since Elon Musk became Twitter’s CEO, he’s been pushing through a lot of changes to the social network. But perhaps…
Funny, knowing Elon, I assumed he would have gone with a whites only mode.
What the fuck is wrong with you.
Nothing wrong with argulaZ. They are bothering to read news.
“Hate speech is soaring on Twitter under Elon Musk, report finds”
I get that a lot.
No, what the fuck is wrong with Elon‽
It’s like a 15 year old got ahold of his mom’s credit card and bought a social media corporation, and now he’s up in his room, all juiced up on Doritos and Mountain Dew, banging away at his keyboard and giggling to himself.
I was thinking pretty much the same thing. He’s got the sensibility of a teenage boy. He thinks things like the letter X and the color black are totally cool, and he thinks naming his company “Space-Sex” and one of its spacecraft “Big Fuckin’ Rocket” is the height of humor.
mark is a robot, elon is a 15 year old, both wearing grown up suits! all signs point to yes tbh
Someone please make a lemmy client with a word filtering option so I can stop hearing about elmo
Or just scroll past things you don’t want to read about? That is a very viable option.
Not viable when every single post is about him.
There’s plenty of communities on Lemmy that don’t discuss Elon at all. Curate your own homefeed
are there any communities that discuss technology advancements ? I can’t find any sub for technology enthusiasts.
edit: ah gotcha you’re just telling him to go away while trying to sound reasonable.

Cool, can’t wait until they ban the use of the letter ‘e’ for non-verified users and wii all hav to wrayt layk this
Avoiding the letter E is already a creative writing style, except you don’t hav to wrayt layk this. There’s even a Mastodon instance dedicated to it and a funny writeup about what happened when they came across another mastodon instance where the letter E is the only allowed letter.
Or in Oulipo:
Avoiding that orthographic symbol is a standing approach to writing, but you don’t hav to wrayt layk this. Also, a Mastodon community for it was built. I found out through a blog post about a showdown of that mastodon community with a community that only allows that symbol.
I was initially excited to hear about the Oulipo community, but they seem to have an very limited take on what Oulipo is/was. There is a lot more to Oulipo than lipograms (avoiding a character) as even the Wikipedia page says.
Can you elaborate?
The whole point of Oulipo is “the seeking of new structures and patterns”.
Constraints inspire creativity, so let’s come up with new constraints.
If you only allow one structure/constraint, that’s the opposite of what Oulipo is about.

“Oulipo Compendium” is a fun book if you can find it.
Motte’s “Oulipo: A Primer of Potential Literature” is OK but a bit dry. Looks like there’ve been a couple new surveys recently too.The mastodon community Oulipo.social only allows one structure/constraint, so it’s not that interesting. If you know of any good Oulipo communities in the fediverse, I’d be thrilled to hear about them.
