It’s not that it’s on the 172.16.0.0/12 range. That’s totally normal and used for all kinds of stuff.

It’s that it’s in 172.16.42.0/24 which is the default dhcp settings for a wifi pineapple. It’s the /24 mask given on the .42 that’s a little suspicious because that’s not a common range for anything else.

Being assigned one of those specific 253 hosts with that subnet mask would definitely make me think twice.

Pretty sure it’s an autocomplete (like copilot or something)

They were typing

progress != “Hold”

And the ai autocomplete suggested

progress != “Hold onto your butts!”

Hence why the completion part is in grey (it’s a suggestion)

You can see it’s still grammatically plural even when used as a singular with the other words that go around it too. “You are” instead of the singular “is”.

It can even make singular things kinda behave like they’re plurals. Like “The Lemmy user is posting comments” vs. “you, the Lemmy user are posting comments”

Back in the day it was “thou art posting comments” (singular) and “ye are posting comments”(plural). With “ye” becoming “you” over time. Although they also had more funky letters like ȝ and þ and stuff.
