But what's your point? Are people making $60k/year causing world hunger through artificial scarcity or is it the greed and mental illness of the capitalist class?

Tankies aren't leftists. Tankies are fascists.

It's a cute little comic about how people feel on first dates and how crazy dogs look drinking from a hose.

You come off as someone who has no personality if they're not talking down to others.

I'm not sure I get this one. Is the joke that they're the first humans so they don't know that they'll die someday?

Jesus Christ this thread is full of people who don't realize they're the judging hipster in the post.

Ubuntu isn't the entry level distro that you move on from once you've gotten your feet wet, and your not very subtle pats on your own backs for using something different aren't earned.

Does it do everything the user needs from it? If so, don't tell them that they need to "graduate" to a "better" flavor.

Or Ubuntu could perform every task they need it to and never switch to anything else.

There are very little, if any, benefits to using a VPN service to browse the public internet.

This is why it's often best to just avoid the comments completely

It would take a super genius to understand that they're either a non-native English speaker or made a simple typo/autocorrect issue. Also, since it's completely impossible to even guess at the point they're trying to make through the context of every other word in their comment we all owe you a debt of gratitude for calling this out!

Thank you, corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca, for adding something incredibly meaningful to the conversation and the world as a whole!

Oh no.. I just saw this comment in a different thread from 2 hours ago, and it MAKES NO SENSE:

Doctors today face a demand form their services that, while we can't guarantee will get them.jigher wages, can give them more leeway against unwritten political rules of speech.

• corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca

What is a doctor's "demand form?" And "them.jigher" isn't a term I could find anywhere on the internet! I don't understand what the author, corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca, was trying to say! It's all just gibberish!

I feel good calling it out though. I'm sure that corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca will be grateful for my much-needed help and not think I'm a dick for detracting from their point to assert my knowledge of English grammar over them.

Neat, there's a second epilogue update in the game that I can't get past the second level.

On the contrary, if another pandemic killed a bunch of people, many of their homes would be bought up by the same hungry corporations that created and perpetuate the housing crisis.

I mean logically the kind of shit that grows on your dishes isn't much better for you than the literal shit that a toilet brush would scrub out of your toilet bowl.

First, what the fuck is growing on your dishes that you believe is "logically" equivalent to eating human shit? Second, this isn't a logic problem or a place for opinion. All the work was already done for you, just waiting for you to look it up instead of giving your opinion on bacteria.

Human shit also doesn't only contain bacteria. There's an estimated 100 million - 1 billion virus per gram of wet shit inside of us. Fungi are estimated at up to a million microorganisms per gram of wet shit and there's still around 100 billion bacteria per gram of wet shit. Let's not forget parasites like cryptosporidium which your body purges in shit.

Meanwhile either giving your dishes a cursory rinse or not allowing them to sit covered in food for days on end would minimize bacterial or fungal growth on your dishes.

This is a reminder for everyone: your opinion on facts that you can't be bothered to type in a search box are less than worthless. They're disinformation and in some cases, like telling people that eating shit is no more harmful that licking a plate, can cause harm.

Just say no to opinions on what facts may or may not be. Cite your sources.

You not seeing what's wrong with his tweet means that you already accepted that it was a factually true statement, which it is not. Humanity wasn't been held down by small-brained babies until the advent of the C-section.

Secondarily, what point do you think he's trying to make? I'd bet that it's about humanity being more intelligent now that these giant-brained babies have an alternative escape route. I'd bet all his ill-gained wealth that he was a C-section and he's also bragging about how intelligent he must be. One commenter also already mentioned that Musk is replying to a eugenics-pusher.

It's never a good idea to read something that lacks and requires credible citation and say, "I guess that sounds right." Intentionally or not, you often add that to some folder of "true stuff I read" in your brain and start repeating it back as fact when relevant.

Oh, and Musk is a vile fuckwit.
