Did chatgpt get this right? I’m not sure I believe it.
Sure! Here's a translation ofthat1950s lingo to modern English:
"Pipe that beef trust, slick" = "Pay attention to that business situation, buddy!"
In context, "pipe" could mean "listen"or"pay attention,""beef trust" refers tothe business or situation (possibly a referencetothe meatpacking industry or a specific business issue), and"slick"is a term of endearment or a way to address someone in a friendly but confident manner.
Why would you want to make us scroll horizontally to read that?

Oh, that surprises me. Can you send a screenshot? Code blocks are supposed to wrap because you don’t want code to look weird And indentations and white space are sometimes important.
I will admit that on mobile it doesn’t make too much sense because screens are so narrow.
The only thing I question is the definition for “pipe”. I’ve never heard it used to mean listen/pay attention. I’ve heard “peep” used in the manner, as in, “Peep that”. Just because I’ve never heard it doesn’t mean anything though. The rest is correct though.

I use Thunder, by the way.
Weird hey? I’m still experimenting with all the Lemmy apps; I’ll give Thunder a shot today!
Surely beef trust in this context is how muscled the guy is, right?

I have only heard it used in ‘pipe down’, meaning to be quite.
…and me thinking pipe meant condom
