[–] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 198 points 2 days ago (15 children)

Should we point out that in this context it's 'save', not 'safe'? If you're going to correct someone's spelling, make sure your own is impeccable.

Nah. It's engagement bait, plane and simple

“God safe us” - irony right there especially when critical of someone else’s use of an acronym perhaps one’s own grasp of the English language should be a little better!!!

God save us ….

The amount of grammatical mistakes in your own comment is pretty ironic as well.

Muphry's Law strikes again.

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 16 points 2 days ago (5 children)

Science jargon has always sounded so impressive until I took anatomy.

for example, the big hole in the bottom of your skull (where the spinal chord passes through) is called the “foramen magnum” which is Latin for ‘big hole’.

[–] azi@mander.xyz 1 points 1 day ago

Unlike the cowards who hide their stupid names with latin, computer scientists will straight up call something a 'fat pointer'.
