In an alternate reality:

Janitor at university. Found locked military case in river. Coworker says FIM-92 Stinger missile. Heavy. Maybe water, maybe live missile. Call police. Military and EOD arrive. Entire campus locked down. Half of workers taken for questioning. EOD open it -- full of some idiot's clothes and books.

New grudge unlocked.

Or better yet, they decide to just blow it up to be safe.

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 17 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Imagine if it was full of adult toys. That would be something to talk about.

[–] Natanael@infosec.pub 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

And they blow it up. Turns out OP did give a flying f***

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 7 points 1 month ago (3 children)

You can say "fuck", here. See?

I do not have the slightest idea of what you intended to convey.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Asterisks are associated with hunter2. That's all they meant.

[–] Natanael@infosec.pub 1 points 1 month ago

Yup. Good old bash.org

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm either too stupid or too old to understand the underlying joke. Maybe both.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

It wasn't the appropriate time for the joke other than seeing asterisks. It's usually associated with passwords. Here's some information on the meme if you haven't seen it, it was unclear based on what you said. https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/hunter2

Re: too old, the meme dates back to 2004. It's an oldie in internet times.

Or too young? 😉 It’s an old IRC quote that did the rounds. Here’s an archive of the original: https://bash-org-archive.com/?244321

The “hunter2” joke above was playing into the idea of a dodgy user saying “you can type something sensitive like your password and the server will replace it with asterisks. See: *******. That was my password! Now you try” leading to the response of “hunter2”, the password of a guilable user. It didn’t really work in this context as a joke, and now I feel sad to discover that bash.org is no more 😩

people can also self-censor if they f***ing want to 😉

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 month ago

Yes, they can. I personally don't even curse, by default, but I'm not offended to read the random swear, unless it is actively used to be an insult towards someone, which was not the case here.

I am interested in making sure people are allowed and expected to express themselves freely in this space, unless they break the "rule" I mention above.

Don't censor yourself. If there is need for a swear, use it. Just don't use swearing in place of proper speech.

Is there an AI joke in there somewhere or am I missing something?

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No, voice to text default setting on android is to censor cus words with ****

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 month ago

Very prude world we live in.

[–] SaltyBarDog@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Of course it's company policy never to, imply ownership in the event of a dildo... always use the indefinite article a dildo, never your dildo.

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ownership of dildos must be normalized. In fact, I want to propose making mandatory to receive one upon becoming of legal age at your country of birth. Upon entering a new job? Complementary dildo. Entering the military? Camouflage pattern, G.I. Dildo. Graduating? Dildo. College? Dildo. Masters? XL Dildo. Doctorate? Epic Dildo. Getting engaged? Matching dildos.

Camouflage pattern, G.I. Dildo

G.I. Diljoe?

Masters? XL Dildo.

The Green Jack-It

College?

Magnum Cum Louder

Doctorate

The Cocktorate

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I like how your mind works.

Are we starting a product line?

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You made me realize being a professional double-entendre creator might be my dream job.

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 month ago

Start issuing fan cards and I'll be your number one.

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

EOD don't open shit most of the time suspicious potentially unstable shit just gets a bit of c4 or anfo and a send off in place. It's one of the perks to just say dunno and light it the fuck up.

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

And their name in it...
