Wrong sub. Clearly belongs in programmer humor because he said the word “programmer”

uses sub instead of community

opinion invalidated, hounds released, house doxxed, feet leaked

I think sub at this point just means subcommunity. Like there's the larger lemmy community, and then there's subcommunities.

I've also heard people call them sublemmies, which I'm not completely against.

iirc the word sub came before r*ddit

short for "subscribable"

But but but, he also said binary… that’s 101 right?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

Ya, and he missed the opportunity to go with analog instead of non binary. I might be a bit analog myself, and the dial goes to eleven, baby! I mean, not really, but we're discussing jokes after all. Dial goes to seven or eight, tops.
