let’s think for 5 minutes here.

I know how a NAS works, but other people might not or possibly even mistake you to mean you transfer media to another machine for viewing.

I meant what I said. If you interpreted this incorrectly, that is your problem. stop trying to pretend someone else doesn't know what a NAS is, they are perfectly capable of looking up words they don't mean. me using a word someone else does not know is not misinformation on my part, it is ignorance on theirs.

learn to comprehend the whole conversation, don’t reply to individual comments like they exist in a vacuum. language doesn’t work if you interpret everything hyper-literally. do you fall apart when people use euphemisms or turns of phrase? because those are far more vague than anything i said.

maybe most importantly though, don’t be an absolute dick to people when you ask for clarification.

Again, would you like me to show you exactly where you're guilty of this in another thread?

The fact you keep repeating this is hilarious, as is your attitude that you're so infallible that there's never any need to correct anything you say.

Your argument falls apart when you look at how you misinterpreted my first reply, too. It happens. If your ego is so hurt that somebody can't clarify something you said without you launching into a full-blown narcissistic meltdown, that's not my problem. Especially when it's misleading at best or unfathomably misconceived at worst.

I'm done coddling your arrogant assertion that I need your permission for elucidating truth and your deeply neurotic misconception that people can't be mislead to form the wrong conclusions no matter the context, as you've literally done yourself twice now.

wait a sec, are you using a bunch of alt accounts with the exact same username from various lemmy instances to upvote your own comments?

It's pretty easy to just edit a comment to better reflect what you actually meant, you know?
