  Do you seriously think you know what a word’s meaning is better than the hundreds of millions of people who use it in a way different from how you suggest it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Revolutionary!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  This implies that when you don’t have more than you need you should build a wall. Is that the point?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Insulin⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Being poor is the only way a country is third world or not. Being politically related to America is not relevant to the present definition. So no, it is not “technically in every other way”. It just is not a third world country, period.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Insulin⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  It does. Strictly it does. Why do you think china is no longer considered third world?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Insulin⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Espousing an old no longer relevant definition to sound smarter and be “right” is peak lemmy/reddit behavior. Third world does mean poor now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I dunno⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Math isn’t flexible like that though. You’re asking for flexibility where there is none. Sure pemdas is technically arbitrary but having a set convention for that is strictly necessary and good teaching.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Racism restaurant ⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s overly diminutive of who uses it. Especially the idea that someone has to be clueless to hate ai and want to make a start wars reference

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jeopardy wall calendar pretending that the coastline paradox doesn't exist⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They can… I wasn’t saying they couldn’t… I meant that as to point to the logic you’d use to prove it finite

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jeopardy wall calendar pretending that the coastline paradox doesn't exist⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Literally no

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It seems like the idea that the universe’s material has to be somehow finite in depth is itself a human construction

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How bad is it really to listen to music with headphones? My mother told me if I keep doing that I'd go deaf... Is that fearmongering?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s absolutely insane logic. “Everyone’s doing it, it must be fine, right?” You know how many incredibly cancerous and harmful materials were once in common use by everyone?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sony’s Concord Is Playable Again Thanks To Fan-Made Custom Servers⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because I don’t know their situation, their life. I don’t have enough trust that I’ll just take someone at face value from a small subset. Don’t want to get jumped. Don’t want to get taken advantage of.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sony’s Concord Is Playable Again Thanks To Fan-Made Custom Servers⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I wouldn’t do an Internet stranger’s house. But I absolutely would help a friend’s or neighbors if they so asked.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sunday update from the Prime Radiant⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m waiting for the boost update to support piefed so I can use it

  Would’ve looked a lot better if you commented that when I hadn’t already

  the-store-whose-name-you-seem-too-think-that-no-one-should-say-like-its-fucking-voldemort-or-something,

  Believe it or not. Shopping at unethical companies is unethical

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why don't cars have a way to contact nearby cars like fictional spaceships do?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I get that it’s short hand for that --but I still don’t think it’s good to push people forward to stores with so many moral and economic issues like walmart as the first suggestion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why don't cars have a way to contact nearby cars like fictional spaceships do?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why is everyone so quick to recommend Walmart? Corpo advertising shouldn’t have a place on lemmy　, intentional or not

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Looking for a good idle game on android⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Assembly line. It’s budget factorio

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Getting Taco Bell⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Doordash has repeatedly been caught stealing tips

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Getting Taco Bell⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “earn by time” my brother in christ we call that being an hourly employee. That’s wild that they have the option to switch between the 2 only for when it’s more profitable for the company to do one or the other

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon studies Organic Chemistry⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Multiple choice often fails to allow full demonstration of understanding, and especially at college level, that matters much more.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Youtube can detect VPNs now... the fuck?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Rip net neutrality

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨life purpose⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Thinking that is legitimately OCD levels of cleanliness.

  You can just walk out. Most places won’t stop you.

  Vibes based hygiene

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jesus hates American "Christians"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t worry. There’s plenty of other diseased religions in other areas!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do boycotts work?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s VERY few services that the luxury of choice is not again for. A lot of the times that’s simply an excuse
