That used to be the point of it. Over time the added impact that using it out of place gives to hyperbole has changed that point until it is necessary for enough context to exist to make clear that it is used in it's original manner.

It'll probably happen eventually to anything that replaces the world as well, sort of like how things like swear words and euphemisms lose their impact from overuse and end up getting replaced only to have the same happen again. At some level a quick way of saying "this is actually true" serves as an easy source of exaggeration if used somewhere where it clearly can't be so, and as soon as someone does that, the meaning starts being dependant on context.

I mean, a decent search engine would also help you find this information

Is there literally anything that would be worse to use financing to buy than DLC?

Nah, it's just supposed to be visually similar to Windows or Mac depending on how you set it up.

Am I supposed to understand what this is, or is it one of those surreal memes you're not really supposed to get?

It's a linux distro. I've been using it the past few months since it's supposed to be fairly similar to windows in appearance to make switching away from that easier.

Do garfish even have tongues?

 

Possibly not the ideal instance for this, but Id rather not deal with alt accounts and like how this instance has been run thus far. Plus, theres gotta be some other furries that play this game right? seeing as it lets you make creatures...

 

Not entirely sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I figured it was the closest fit.

I've been thinking about creating one or possibly a few communities, mostly due to missing some that were on Reddit. Before creating any, I wanted to be sure of a few things:

  1. Do communities have to be created on the instance one logs in to (ie, does the fact my lemmy account is from pawb mean that communities I make have to be made here?) I kinda assume it would since going to another instance's page loads their site, which I obviously am not logged into, but given my second question I feel like I should ask if there's a way to make one elsewhere.
  2. Given pawb is a furry instance, do communities made here have to be furry related, or could one make, say, a community for some specific game for example that isn't explicitly a furry game?
  3. Would creating a fetish-related community for one that is popular with some furries be allowable, or should I go to a different instance for such things? I noticed one or two on pawb already but I was unsure if they got any special permission to be created or not.
