If you read one Wikipedia article on a topic you’re already more knowledgeable about that topic than 99% of people.

At the same time you shouldn’t assume you know everything/enough about a topic just because you read a Wikipedia article on it.

you know what I’m starting to believe that god does actually exist and he’s just messing with us for his own entertainment at this point

That’s exactly the kind of comment I’d expect from a MF called “SatansMaggotyCumFart”

Honestly I’m already not a big fan of Windows 10 so if Microsoft tries to force me to download Windows 11 with all these nonsense AI features that spy on you I’m just gonna switch to Linux

As someone who studied CS at uni for 3 years I saw first hand how there’s plenty of idiots in this field. Two of my classmates identified as Nazis and thought that the holocaust didn’t happen, besides a significant chunk leaning to the right more generally.

There’s plenty of really smart people working in the field of AI, but there’s also plenty of people who just think they’re smart.

I call people by their preferred pronouns because this is something that’s completely inconsequential and meaningless to me. But the same kind of argument can be made against you: “So you’re saying taking “no” for an answer is a great difficulty for you?”

If I traveled to some country where a particular religion - let’s call it X - was the most common, and in X people were ascribed different pronouns based on some rules or rituals, I would call them by their preferred pronouns because as an atheist and moral anti-realist that’s just not something important to me. But if a Christian felt uncomfortable doing so because it goes against their religion their position is just as valid - arguably it’s more valid since in this example the people from X are asking the Christian to change their vocabulary, while the Christian isn’t asking anything of the people from X.

You’re moving the goalpost as treating other races as equals and using different pronouns are not the same thing, but again the argument can be turned against you: Why are you rude towards Christians simply because they prefer to use a different pronoun when referring to you? Is taking “no” for an answer such a great difficulty?

A while back on R*ddit I had this discussion with a “libertarian” where they unironically defended the idea that local communities should be able to dictate people’s clothes. For leftists “freedom” means expanding and protecting the rights of the people, while for them it literally just means “freedom to oppress others”.

“Let the bodies pile up in the streets” but unironically

I’ve always liked Kbin’s design and funcionality more than Lemmy, but the latter is more popular and sometimes posts/comments won’t load properly on Kbin, so I’ve stuck with Lemmy for now.

Tap water tastes different from bottled water, and the bottled water from Brazil tastes different from the bottled water I had in Chile, which came from glaciers.

And yeah it’s the minerals that give taste to the water, but I don’t think you’re supposed to drink completely distilled water in the first place.

Zero surprises there considering the right fetishizes violence.

Everything I see in the news about how the dems are bending over backwards to please republicans leads me to believe that the senior democratic party members are genuinely just fucking stupid.

I guess that’s to be expected since half of them are like 300 years old, but it’s still really annoying to watch them just let democracy be destroyed for the sake of decorum.

Analog greentext horror? 🤔

Edit: I just thought of something. As with any 4chan story I assume this is simply fake, but putting skepticism aside for a second… I distinctly remember one day when my grandmother was on the phone and her call got incorporated into my dream because I could hear her talking. In the off-chance that they’re telling the truth I’d guess this anon just heard the call/voicemail while they were sleeping and it got incorporated into their dream.
