@remi You need a summary tag inside the details. Yes, that's weird.
I'm not sure if this is more -worthy than the newline-inside-tag thing.
You need the extra newline else the image doesn't expand.
Oh, right. Fixed. And Fuck NodeBB, Markup/down/sideways, and fake WYSIWYG editors that just aren't. Summon Blakeyrat etc.
(and that's a good place to mention that I found yet another bug while writing that first post, and if I was not too I would play with making this post a reply to the one I'm going to make in Bugs 'cause that's so fun!)

summary inside details
What's so weird about it?
-
@hungrier To me, the weirdness is that it's not an attribute (though I understand that this would limit what's available, so that might not be the best design choice, but it's still what I expect), and the fact that it has to be a tag inside the other is counter-intuitive to me (I don't want the summary to be inside the details). Also, it opens the door to many questions such as what happens if there are several summaries, if there is another tag before the summary, if you nest details etc.
I'm pretty sure all of those have clear and well-defined answers (and I don't really want to know them, because I'll have forgotten by the time I've finished reading it anyway), and I can't suggest a better way to do it, but the bottom line is that I can never remember the syntax for details, and when I cannot remember a feature after having used it several times that usually means that the feature is not intuitive/matching my expectations. Of course that might just be me, maybe I'm .

@remi said in The nerdy jokes thread (bonus original title mode!):
what happens if there are several summaries,
Only the first is rendered as a summary element. Any others just end up in the details.
@remi said in The nerdy jokes thread (bonus original title mode!):
if there is another tag before the summary
The contents end up in details.
@remi said in The nerdy jokes thread (bonus original title mode!):

You end up with them nested.

How many words in French don't mean "dick"?
-
@obeselymorbid Well, there are some that mean "pussy" instead.
(if you read French well enough, try a San-Antonio book (the author's true name is Frederic Dard, see post above for meaning!)... it's a huge collection of pulp detective stories with a lot of sex and an even larger set of words for all aspects of it.)

Only the ones that are types of alcohol, cheese or pâtisserie.

Well, there is a pâtisserie called a gland (literally "acorn"), which also means "dick"...
(edit: right now, can't find a similar dual-meaning word in alcohol/cheese vocabulary, but alcohol reuses a lot of words with weird meanings, so I'd be surprised if there isn't at least one!)

@remi said in The nerdy jokes thread (bonus original title mode!):

No, the only words I know are croissant, baguette and since today at least five ways to say dick.
So I'll have to settle for reading your posts with translations and explanations included.
-
@obeselymorbid I would be surprised if "baguette" hasn't been used as a euphemism for dick
-
@hungrier Probably by San-Antonio at least, yes, but since the implication is of a thin object, that's not quite what people are usually going for in dick euphemisms.
Although flute can be used for that, and it's pretty thin, so...

Crusty baguette.

No, it's recognizable as an amanita specifically, which is wrong for most of the potential uses of that emoji.
@Applied-Mediocrity said in The nerdy jokes thread (bonus original title mode!):

Maybe. It does not look like either viper, cobra or rattlesnake specifically. It's just a reasonably generic snake.

Of course this is sign of cultural difference. Around here if you ask almost anybody to draw a mushroom, it will look like a boletus, because most people here recognize them and many regularly pick them in the woods. Everybody recognizes an amanita too, but as that poisonous one they shouldn't pick, so it's not the first one that comes in their mind. However further to the west, picking mushrooms is rare, so while most people still recognize the fly amanita because of it's very characteristic colouring, knowing the common edible species is much rarer.

I think you're grossly overestimating regular people's knowledge about mushrooms.

This kind of mushrooms is easily recognized for its use as gnome housing material.

Google translates the label as 'magic staves' which seems appropriate.

That's the cultural difference. Around here there is basically no way to escape knowing these things about mushrooms. Not when most major newspaper/newsweb runs a page about where they grow or don't at least once or twice a year, usually around September.
@Zecc said in The nerdy jokes thread (bonus original title mode!):

That's another cultural difference. We don't have many gnomes around here.

Here too probably but those people would still see and recognise it as a mushroom.
As a generic representation of a mushroom it does its job.@Bulb said in The nerdy jokes thread (bonus original title mode!):

Except my use above, as the mushroom in the video is also red with whiteish spots.

Amanita muscaria is edible™ (almost) in the same sense as psilocybe.

I prefer to think of Fly Amanita as psychedelic.
