It's called a "gish gallop" mixed with a disagreement about what this platform is, with a healthy mix of "ain't nobody got time for that". To some people this is a legitimate place of discussion, to others it's a place to shit post. One thing that Reddit did get right was seperating the two groups from each other. Lemmy doesn't do that as well unless you ask it to and for some people, they ain't got time for that. That still leaves the people who are gish galloping but they're not going anywhere so might as well adapt.

What, you're saying that the sky is owned by democrats now? Give sources, cause my sky is Republican Red! /S

That sounds like every job I've ever had. Working so hard everyone is making themselves sick and the moment you're not at 100% you'll be let go for underperforming. God forbid you actually ask to be paid for the overtime you worked, good luck chump. Then some other desperate soul will take your place until they're chewed out and replaced. We weren't even called employees, we were human capital. The worst part is I'd do it all over again if that meant I would have a paycheck again. At least then I'd be able to afford rent, cause if I don't find a job in a few months I lose my apartment. Apparently I'm living in the greatest part of the world.

You'd have to also threaten to assassinate their inheritors from taking the estate, or just take the estate. Either way that's violence. The question then becomes is it okay to use the Master's tools to build your own house, to which my answer is no I can't. I can use the Master's tools to tear down their own houses. I may be a bit too idealistic though.

I've learned to call it socialized capitalism when I talk to older generations, and I'm pretty old. I find it an easier pill for them to swallow. We have to remember that the baby boomers were children in the middle of the red scare, that shit got internalized deep. It's almost like they're traumatized.

This is a tangent of that but I thought superposition was the state. The state of being some amount of many states at once. It isn't positive and negative at the same time but some amount of positive and some amount of negative for some period of time. It's still one state that is just somewhere between a number of states.

Since sarcasm is difficult to express in text alone a '/s' at the end of a post is an online abbreviation to indicate the writer is unambiguously sarcastic.

Canada already loves Nazis and hates immigrants. Don't give them any ideas about trains.

I'm typing this on a device that I carry around with me all day, who's entire purpose is to collect as much data as possible and deliver it back to the company I bought it from. All in order to influence me to buy more of their stuff. In a way, yeah capitalism is always in the room with me. It kinda sucks.

A sick and twisted part of me wants to see charging ports removed too. Every port! Make it IP69+ compliant. Maybe then the careless kids I know might keep a device alive for more than a year. Ultimately all that would do is barely solve one problem and introduce a whole lot of other problems.

I recently had the realization that I've just been putting up with Windows bullshit forever recently when a friend asked me for help with their work PC. They're a Mac user, but they just started working from home and have been provided a Windows laptop. They sent me a bunch of rushed texts when their headset stopped working. They changed the default audio device after they launched the program. Which never works on a Windows PC. I never have that problem because I have just learned to live with it, I don't even think about it anymore.

Now I'm really starting to notice all the little things I put up with from Windows on my machine. To be fair my Linux machine is just as janky but at least I can say I made it that way. I keep telling myself to 'tidy' my Linux machine up but I never do, it still plays games just fine. Usually. If I didn't fuck with it.

I was like that too until I realized that all media is compressed in some way. A digital recording is only ever as precise as the analog to digital converter that was used in the studio. Analog is only as precise as it's smallest distinguishable change. Eventually enough is enough and I was only wasting money.
