What's a word that means a common saying which is arguably untrue?
Such as “money can’t buy happiness” or “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger”. Generally a false adage or something like that. All I could think of was “fallacious bumper sticker” which just sounds stupid.
Why do AI image generators have a stroke when they try to generate text?
We can generate AI images, we can generate AI text, but text in an image is a no go?
Why does markdown always format bullets wrong?
I’ve noticed this on a lot of places that use Markdown. The bullet points have more space above than they do below. This makes it confusing visually because it looks like the text is associated with the item below, even though logically it should be related to the item above....
Does Mach speed change depending on the altitude?
Since the speed of sound depends on the air, which changes at different altitudes, are “Mach” speeds dependent on the altitude? Or is it basically just like 100 °C is the same even at altitudes where water boils at a lower temperature (in that it is a fixed speed based on the speed of sound at sea level)?
Does it matter if I skip sponsored ad segments in YouTube videos? (kbin.social)
As in, would the channel be losing out on money? Because I don't want to take away from small creators if there is a retention rate for viewership of that exact segment, but I would prefer to skip any of the "but first check out this shitty mobile game".
Horse people of Lemmy- how easily can someone steal a random horse? (several questions)

When characters in a cartoon speak a different language do they get someone else to do the line or does the voice actor learn the line on their own?
I could see the voice actor learning a sentence or two but on occasion the bit goes on for a couple minutes. I feel like with a cartoon it wouldn’t be that hard to find a stand in who sounds close enough or use whoever does the dubbing for that language.
What's the deal with buying single cans out of a multipack at a bottle shop? (Australia)

To those with English as a second language: are people actively being taught that a short A should be pronounced as a short E?
Just wondering because I hear a lot of non-native speakers say things like “bend” instead of “band” and I find it a bit puzzling since native speakers don’t say it that way (except in New Zealand and maybe London I suppose? Not sure) and many languages have the usual A-sound that I and many others use...

[Answered] Do "chest pillows" hurt for women to do?
I see fan-art or scenes of a woman using her chest as basically a pillow for someone. It’s cute and all, but I can’t help think if that hurts for the woman, especially if her breasts are large?
If your instance is defederated from another instance, would it be sockpuppeting to create another account to view posts from that instance?
is there a way to refederate instances just for me?
when I see that whichever instance I choose is defederated from another bunch of random instances, is it possible to have those show in my feed without making a separate profile from other instances? and can I turn them off again if I see that defederating was the right idea?
