I'm generally around. Funny how the old inbox works for replying to old comments, eh?
I think the world at large is just treating Elon and Twitter like that 4 year old who decides his name is Chewbacca now. Like, ok hon, now eat your carrots.
Zaslav. You don't get to just take away Batgirl. Honestly, I don't even care about the legal consequences part of this question. I would sucker punch that man at noon on the courthouse steps given the opportunity. And at my hearing for early release, I'd do it again.
I get your concern, really. I would counter that some conversations with a good chatbot these days are more rewarding than those with your average redditor. It's like the placebo effect. For me, if I'm having a good time and getting value out of a platform, that matters more.
As a side note, do you have a platform that you feel has the least amount of bots? I just assume one is as bad as the next.
Replying from the bottom of your comment up.
This right here is my second comment to you. Your reference to me HAVING to harass you was a reply to my first comment ever to you. HARASS seems a stretch. Furthermore, I prefer the Sopuli instance to lemmy.world so not sure where simping comes in. And while I understand "brother in Christ" is just a thing people say, I'm pagan. Not offended, but it always feels weird for me to respond to that without pointing it out.
While I understand you were being hyperbolic about a Lemmy Master Class, I don't think it would take too much time to provide the requested info. I say this only because I have seen so many other commenters that seem very well informed. Why, I bet they'd even walk you thru it step by step if you asked.
The "real world adult life" comment was just generally unnecessary. We all have that. Personally, I'm a mail carrier working overtime to provide for a house of 3 humans and 4 cats. If you have time to complain in a comment section then you have time to listen and learn.
I also have no idea how to dig thru a mod log but again, I bet people here do and are willing to help. I have raised no bars. As I stated in my first comment, the only bar or goalpost even implied by others was the willingness of you to engage in good faith discussion with examples provided. It's pretty basic actually.
What's really interesting to me is that if your first reply had just stated that you understood where u/Dee was coming from but didn't want to take the time to do the legwork, nobody would have probably said anything really. Your immediate reference of moving goal posts and the like is what escalated this.
You are getting disproportionately offended to getting asked for a single bit of verification. I'm sure you're frustrated but try to realize that your reactions are exactly the same as someone operating in bad faith. And moving goalposts is very frustrating, I agree. But that didn't happen. Goalposts were barely set up to begin with. More like the stadium's street address.
Gluttony: the word we use to distinguish between those with a high metabolism and those with a low one.
Seriously, this is asinine. No, the obesity epidemic is not a spiritual one. It's a cultural health and science one, because we haven't had normal chemicals in our bodies in a century.
It's never happened to me but if it did, I'd simply ask why they didn't already have it installed and then recommend it. 7z FTW!
There was once, but the gang and I set a trap, caught the monster, and now it's just a pawn shop.
Like, an extra one? Are you offering me a green mushroom? If so, I will gladly accept.
