Last time I comment on this since I'm also engaging with the bait instead of the words but people... Every single time there's a crossed word the top comment will be about it. Don't you get that it's engagement bait, y'all are getting baited!! FFS!! Everyone complaining about crossed words sounds pathetic. Including me right now. I hate that I've been driven to the point where I'm pointing it out...

Anyway, I bet they devised some sort of deafproof plan for the future lol.

I just down vote and hope it eventually goes away

[–] Tja@programming.dev 4 points 2 months ago

And now people complain about the complainers, double effective!

That and anything even possibly AI generated

[–] obinice@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

If I'm AI generated, why do I hate myself so much?

[–] fullsquare@awful.systems 2 points 2 months ago

"You don't know the struggle until you run
out of toilet paper and everyone in your
house is deaf."
and I'm laughing really hard

[–] s@piefed.world 38 points 2 months ago

Dude you can’t say those words or else the advertisers hellbent on selling me penis pills will get mad

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Before I form an opinion about crossed out words, does it make it more expensive for AI to scrape it?

[–] aliceblossom@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (2 children)

I actually think it's like an art piece. The words crossed out are related to things a technofacist authoritarian regime would censor. They deal with sense of self/community (parents, I'm), personal property ownership (your), words related to resistance (struggle), and moral good (just).

Edit: didn't notice toilet, so maybe not....

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 months ago

Toilets are communist sedition. Every ass connected by a government pipe? What are they doing with my shit? Literally 1984

[–] Postmortal_Pop@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Toilet is associated with bodily functions and that makes it basically a swear word.

[–] lepinkainen@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Nope. The AI doesn’t give a fuck about censorship.

Even a fully local model you can run on your laptop can interpret that easily

[–] NorthWestWind@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Someone should do a reverse of this and cross out every word except fuck

^^ here you can use mine

Is this really Modern Internet Humor? >.>

[–] s@piefed.world 2 points 1 month ago

I would qualify this as post-modern, or even post-post-modern
