Oh no, our sworn enemy! They want to add us to their crazy fusion menu!
Yes I did "borrow" part of the idea from @USSBurritoTruck@startrek.website , but that's just part of the Ferengi spirit!
I kinda figured this was the USS Burrito Truck:
There are infinite burrito trucks in infinite combinations
FYI, the @ doesn't make a link unless you select it from the dropdown box, or actually type out some link code eg [link text](@user@instance). This link will also take you to their instance, away from the instance you're logged into.
To automatically generate an instance agnostic link you need to use /u/user@instance, so /u/USSBurritoTruck@startrek.website. However, this won't create a mention to their inbox, you can only do a mention with the link code.
Disclaimer: all this behaviour I'm describing is the core lemmy website behaviour, apps may have their own quarks.
Isn't u/ a reddit thing @TWeaK@lemm.ee
/u is the same on lemmy, /r is what changes to /c
I don't believe it is as I haven't seen any documentation say that
Just go to a community and look at the URL, then do the same with a user
~~That is only true for the url~~
~~Anytime I've gotten a mention it has always been @x4740N@lemmy.world~~
~~I'd mention you as @Xusontha@is.buckodr.ink~~
~~And again the lemmy documentation doesn't mention u/~~
Edit: never mind I just realised I misread your initial comment and went on from that initial misreading
Sorry about that
Ah, good ol quirky Lemmy stuff. I fixed it (I think), but I also spent 30 minutes trying (unsuccessfully) to post an animated gif so who knows
Good stuff! Only question is whether they got a mention for your edit hah.
Okay that's unfair...
Who's buying me a burrito?
I can't, I just spent a fortune building a starship out of burritos. Do you know how expensive it is to make a warp core out of beans?
Yeah, I have a little experience considering I made mine out of mushrooms.
The bathrooms alone, my god! Why did I ever decide to invest in alternative material ships...
USS Taco Bell is just a Crunchwrap Supreme for the saucer section and two Burritos for the nacelles
I thought about doing something like that but couldn't find a picture at the right angle
No guac?
The guac is inside the burritos, it's like the plasma relays
So that's why the Jeffries tubes have been smelling extra tangy lately.
At least you aren't allergic to guacamole; that one dude just exploded when he went in...
I'll miss Ensign... What's his name. Starfleet's finest.
Ensign "Junior Engineer #4" will be missed dearly
I never understood people that name their kids that way. Though I understand that the one that got eaten by a lava monster a few weeks ago changed his name to Guy.
Yeah, I don't understand either but I've never been able to meet any of their parents ~~since they keep dying~~ so I can't ask them
Ah that's his name! I'm writing a letter to his family but couldn't figure out his name.
I made a meme yesterday using Tribbles but each was replaced with strogonoff, all resized and angled to match the individual Tribble it replaced.
I realized I spelled it "strogonof" and rage quit. It was several dozen layers.
That sounds horrible. Idk what to do there, maybe you could've posted it with a disclaimer at the top? That or ragequit like you did (I would go with the latter probably lol)
Eeeyyy!
He looks like he's high lol
Why you think food is always on his mind?
... good point.
