Gimp is a funny acronym that explains exactly what the software does. Libreoffice also tells you exactly what the product is. Lemmy is quick, catchy, easy to remember, and has a story behind it. Apache is… pretty bad.
Ploopy is literally “poopy” with an extra letter.
After reading up it sounds like a decent product but they should definitely consider rebranding.
I’ve got to say “Ploopy” is one of the absolute worst names I’ve ever seen. Before I even saw the picture, I thought “I bet it looks like shit.”
She’s not an idiot. She’s the attorney general
I’m not sure that those are mutually exclusive.
One is plenty.
Not exactly. The quote is:
I don’t want to be like Congressman Foley, with, you know, 12-year-olds.
So I guess his cutoff is 13 which is absolutely no better.
I’ve been trying to convince my wife to leave since 2016. I’m 99% sure the main reason she won’t agree is because she will burst into flames if she ever admits to being wrong about anything.
Yo dog, we heard you like spending money on your games so we made it so you have to spend money on your game in your game… Oh yeah, it isn’t really your game though.
Which in turn was just a distraction from… Shit… I can’t even remember.
Hmm… I don’t like kids. I don’t want to have any and I really don’t like being around them. However, I don’t think people should murder them. What’s that, a 2?
I saw a Lemmy mod mistake an obvious A Modest Proposal reference for a serious call to start eating children.
The refurbished pixel 8 I bought cost a fraction of what I’d have paid for a new phone and the installation took 5 minutes.
Help me step-border, my arm is stuck in the drain again.
Sometimes the lesser evil is still really evil.
You can drop the “maybe.”
If it’s between being disappeared or going to the Jersey Shore, then sign me up to be kidnapped.
P.S. it feels like I need this disclaimer to explain why I would go there.
You did. I live here and my reaction to your post was l, “Why the fuck would you willingly come here?”
65/100 is a D. Anything lower is an F.
No, it doesn’t.
The target market is primarily geeks.
Sounds like your coworkers should expand their horizons. Libre is a common word in (at least) 2 widely spoken languages.
Not when you’re naming a product. You think its hard to get people to use Lemmy, imagine trying to sell them on “Federated Link Aggregater Website.”
As does Google, Instagram, and Tiktok but they at least managed to pick silly sounding names that don’t sound like a child trying to describe a loose bowel movement.
