Probably for some of them (e.g. the one making videos). Definitely not all of them.
Believing something wrong is not really a reason to hate someone though. We all have varying degrees of wrong beliefs - if anyone thinks they don’t, well … that’s an excellent example.

- Comment on culture 3 days ago:
If my opinion is “X is good and you have to like it”, then it’s very reasonable for you to argue. If my opinion is “I like X”, then not so much.

Why you gotta kink shame? Let people do their thing.
- Comment on culture 3 days ago:
I don’t think this is very related to phantasia… With a book you can stop and think about things (imaginatively or critically). With video your entire attention is captured and it’s quite difficult to step away from the narrative being presented. In my experience audio is somewhere in between, and I’m able to zone out on my own tangent sometimes (but this is annoying, because I miss things)
- Comment on How would I go about turning this into a power-generating wind turbine. 1 week ago:
Get any cheap small electric DC motor and attach it somehow (pulleys?). It won’t be as efficient as possible, but it’ll work.
But also: sucking power out of it will create resistance and might stop it from spinning in low-medium winds.

It fails in the same way that sarcasm often goes undetected on the internet.
Also, there really is no nice way to interpret something like this… It’s just making the world a slightly worse place.

You do see the flaw in your logic here, right?

I have a friend with a ute, though he recently moved cities (and scrapped his (very old) ute)… Guess I need to be on the lookout.
- Comment on How do you use the "uno reverse card"? 2 weeks ago:
That’s a cool rule! Kinda destroys that strategy though (TBH I can’t even remember if uno has viable strategy)
- Comment on How do you use the "uno reverse card"? 2 weeks ago:
Yes, we used to play that way. Basically any attack card could be stacked on top of a previous one (of a matching colour or type), and the first person who couldn’t add to the stack got all the effects combined (so you might pick up 6 cards from a stack of +2s)

There’s no way you can make a reasonable diagnosis from a 100 word Lemmy post, and don’t so might be putting someone in danger.
- Comment on If everyone in power is racist, a pedophile, and just all-around hates poor people, happiness, and everything that's good, then how do we keep winning? 2 weeks ago:
Not just democracy… methods of keeping power in check like that are something every well functioning society needs. Wengrow and Graeber’s book The Dawn Of Everything lays this out pretty clearly.
- Comment on Chaos 3 weeks ago:
I suspect because they occur everywhere in nature (in trees, water channels, shorelines), and the eye has evolved to expect them.

Sleeping. I also have no underwear on. Good luck in your naked meeting.

I’m also waiting for code to finish running. By which I mean the internet.
- Comment on Seriously though what the fuck is wrong with this guy 3 weeks ago:
archive.today and archive.is are two separate services, run by different people, are they not? The Wikipedia page just says that archive.today was mirroring archive.is’s contents.
- Comment on What's the difference between ignorance and stupidity? 3 weeks ago:
Ignorance is not knowing things (e.g. facts).
Stupidity is not being about to think about things (e.g. lacking reason, being unable to make a good decision even when given all the useful information).
Making a bad decision out of ignorance isn’t necessarily stupid. Making a bad decision despite knowing the consequences is.

Those companies aren’t paying for quality software, they are paying for support and vendor lock-in.
