I don’t even know what to think about this one. I’m not angry, more confused than anything. There’s only one mod there so i asked them, and they said “It’s against policy. It’s the abbreviations policy.”
I see no such policy anywhere, so who knows what’s going on. Is it only the NYT that can’t be abbreviated? What about the US? Is LOL forbidden too? And if so, why are we forbidden from laughing there!
They didn’t even remove the comment.
The mod is user qrstuv. Maybe the only abbreviation allowed is when they say one? That’s a power trip!
no abbreviations? that is the single most idiotic rule ive ever seen. what a fucking idiot.
Especially on sdf.org. I’m pretty sure SDF isn’t a word.
Just from a brief glance, you’d think sdf would be super chill. But they were just having some other drama around a week ago. Now this.
What does it stand for? I assume it’s not signed distance field
Super Dimension Fortress, I believe
Correct.
I had no idea that was it. Honestly, it sounds like an early name for the Cybertruck.
My first thought was some sort of tower defense flash game.
Oh, it predates flash by a good bit. The instance is hosted for the community of a Public Unix host that dates back to BBS days of the Internet. Lots of cool retrotech, FOSS stuff, and FOSS-themed web comics.
