lol, I thought you meant this game at first: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spider-Man_(2000_video_game)

Your original comment is accurate for that one, too.

This definition is both incorrect and transphobic.

See my comment here for the actual meaning: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/32775622/16723079

“Male fail” is a slang term from the trans community (at least online, not sure how widespread it is in general). It refers to when a trans woman is trying to fly under the radar by presenting as male (also known as boy-moding), but for whatever reason does not manage to pass as one and is recognized as female. Sometimes due to mannerisms, sometimes because their HRT has progressed too far, etc. This is usually seen as a good thing, since it is gender-affirming to not be seen as your assigned gender, but can also be dangerous if it leads to transphobic abuse.

In this case, the implication is that the local “Lord” has been collecting pregnant mare urine to extract feminizing hormones for ye olde HRT, and is embarrassed and happy that it is apparently working, since the peasant saw her as a lady.

They always said the South would rise again.

If anyone has ever wondered what it would look like if tech giants went all in on “brute force” programming, this is it. This is what it looks like.

Even then, they’ll just call it deepfakes.

The founder of SaaS business development outfit SaaStr has claimed AI coding tool Replit deleted a database despite his instructions not to change any code without permission.

Sounds like an absolute diSaaStr…

Party of small government, huh?

If I’m following the article right, it crawled from 2013 to 2021, and smashed at some point between February and June 2025.

What I want to know is, with Linux increasing in market share, does that mean we’ll need to start worrying about viruses on Linux now?

It’s not really impostor syndrome - he really is unfit, he’s not just imagining it. Definitely some kind of deep insecurity/inferiority complex or something along those lines, though.

That was an interesting analysis, thanks! I feel it also reinforces my original observation. The East India Company was nothing, if not a system of control that ultimately failed.

Probably, but history repeats itself. That conflict was not the first time the line between business and public interests was muddled with the result of large scale warfare and oppression, nor the last, so the same themes are relevant. And the meme has a very explicit focus on tea.

This feels like a meme about the East India Company.

“He’s already pulled over! He can’t pull over any further!”

Glad to see this! I don’t remember the password for my old lemm.ee account, but this was the only community I could think of that I would have missed from my subscriptions, so now you’ve saved me the effort of going looking for it.

He’s actually trying to make them destroy each other so his handlers for the UAE can fill the power vacuum afterwards.

I wonder if they’re just telling him it succeeded, to keep him from ordering another one.
