I wonder if they knew or if they remained polyclueless

What does DNI stand for?
Do Not Insert?
HappyFrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 70 pts · 1y
"Do not interact", like "please don't comment or like my posts if you're a man".

They just need some one to provide light energy for the cabbage and they'll be set for multiple millennia.

TIT (today i teach): you can use https://www.urbandictionary.com/ to explain new words of phrases.
in firefox (and many other browsers too), you can right click the search bar and "add search engine", and you can add a "keyword", i personally use "ud", and then i can type "ud dni" (for instance) in the address bar (ctrl+l to get there quick) and it goes straight to results
if the page isn't supported, it doesn't show "add search engine", google translate for example, you can still add it in a different way
search for a recognisable word, and bookmark the resulting page. then go to bookmark/manage bookmarks (ctrl+shift+o), find the bookmark, replace your recognisable word with "%s", add a keyword (depending on the language i use 2en, 2de, 2jp etc)

Men DNI DNI, is that a double negative?
DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social · 23 pts · 1y
No. Double negative rules apply to modifying a negative, but in this context the first DNI should not be considered a negative but a noun in its own right.
First DNI: Men, do not interact with me.
Second DNI: Do not interact with me, misandrists.
The second is not literally the same thing as "men, interact with me" but it can be assumed to mean "I don't have a problem with men interacting with me." It is still is not a request for the interaction itself which is what double negative rules would imply.
Tl;Dr double negative rules in English simply aren't the same as they are in Latin which is why it's a fake rule, even beyond the usage for emphasis in casual speech.

Something you didn't mention is that the 2nd one has "men DNI" in quotes which removes any possible double negative anyway.

With or without the quotes, I wouldn't know what was supposed to be the message 🫠
