Just try yourself, the claim is obviously false.
www.bing.com/search?pc=MOZI&form=MOZLBR&q=bullshi…
www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=bullsh…The results here are nothing alike.
Her I have the first result on Google being “Prime video”, which does not occur on the first page of Bing.
On Bing the first result is Wikipedia English, where Google has Wikipedia Danish as 2nd result, and the English not occuring on first page. - Comment on Microsoft Bing is trying to spoof Google UI when people search Google.com 2 weeks ago:
Misleading users is definitely harmful. Since this is done on purpose, I’d say it’s malicious.
- Comment on Apple CEO Tim Cook Donating $1 Million to Trump's Inaugural Fund 2 weeks ago:
Thanks, it must be amazing for Americans to have a president who won’t sign a standard ethics agreement.
- Comment on Apple CEO Tim Cook Donating $1 Million to Trump's Inaugural Fund 2 weeks ago:
Ah, corruption to facilitate more corruption.
That sounds like a Trump thing. - Comment on Apple CEO Tim Cook Donating $1 Million to Trump's Inaugural Fund 2 weeks ago:
Why does such a thing as an inaugural fund exist? Seems like it’s just to facilitate more corruption!
- Comment on Samsung is the next company to try to popularize 3D displays (again) 2 weeks ago:
I wouldn’t be surprised if the multi-user version was shelved. Of course it may come back, if the technology matures.
- Comment on Why is it that clasped hands tends to be the norm for praying? 🙏 2 weeks ago:
I think you missed the fact that it’s in color!!!
- Comment on Samsung is the next company to try to popularize 3D displays (again) 2 weeks ago:
That seems very prototype like. Not nearly the clarity that was demoed last year:
- Comment on Samsung is the next company to try to popularize 3D displays (again) 2 weeks ago:
means that you don’t have to wear glasses to access the monitor’s “customizable 3D experience.” .
Lenticular lenses direct different images to each eye to make images look three-dimensional.So I guess it’s a 1 user solution, which is fine for a computer screen, but will probably not work for TV.

Because I know it’s the same in USA. Do you really think I have that opinion based on an anecdote?
- Comment on Uber Eats undercover: Delivering your food for $1.74 an hour 2 weeks ago:
It shows paywall asshole.

What a sad country, where people have to accept being paid so little.
I’ve been arguing for decades that EU needs to tax US imports, because USA is using social dumping to compete unfairly.
The US minimum wage is not a living wage, and employers can even go below that if they can claim tips are part of the wage. - Comment on X adds Twitch to its advertising boycott lawsuit 1 month ago:
This is insane, there should be fines for frivolous lawsuits like this.
- Comment on A new generation of cheaper batteries is sweeping the EV industry 1 month ago:
I understand that was meant as sarcasm, but actually they have become cheaper, in the way that new cheap EV models are arriving with much better range than previous cheap models.

I don’t get the relevance of that link, it talks about logical falacies like:
A: “All rodents are mammals, but a weasel isn’t a rodent, so it can’t be a mammal.”
I don’t see how that’s relevant, there is no way that can be seen as an ad hominem. The entire piece seems to be like that. And obviously ad hominem is not a logical fallacy of any kind.
From wikipedia which is way more concise, and actually talks about what an ad hominem is instead of what it is not:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominem
Ad hominem (Latin for ‘to the person’), short for argumentum ad hominem, refers to several types of arguments that are fallacious. Often currently this term refers to a rhetorical strategy where the speaker attacks the character, motive, **or some other attribute of the person making an argument **
In this case me being emotional.

your fallacious claim that the person committed an ad hominem
I’m surprised you still consider it fallacious?
THIS PART IS THE PERSON’S ARGUMENT,
Yes I know, it’s the way the argument is put with “You have to understand”, as if I wasn’t aware of a very obvious fact.
- Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 2 months ago:
Ok buddy, you only quoted part of what I said.
I took the part that was essential. Your claim that only things like this is an ad hominem is essentially the same argument.
Your argument is wrong because you’re an idiot
That’s the same as your argument is wrong, because you are angry and hurt, and therefore not rational. Both are equally as much attacks on the person and not the argument.
- Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 2 months ago:
A statement is only an ad hominem if 1) it’s attempting to refute an argument 2) by attacking the character/motive of the person
Which is EXACTLY what he did.
- Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 2 months ago:
He/She doesn’t understand anything, he/she doesn’t know me.
If the comment was along the lines of: I understand IF you are hurt and angry, it would be completely different and not presumptuous.
But thanks for pointing out a possibly poorly worded good intention.
As he wrote it, it looks like an ad hominem, because it looks like he accuses me of being emotional and irrational in my argument, which I think I argued based on reason, even though some here disagree in my point.I hope you can at least agree that it was poorly worded.

saying every X user is a fascist seams an oversimplification.
That’s a straw man, nobody I saw here claimed that. The claim is that they don’t mind fascism. Which is not the same.
You can take a country with only 10%, if the remaining 90% remain passive. Staying at Xitter is remaining passive about their fascist propaganda. - Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 2 months ago:
I think you are confused, the is not lemmy.ml, and lemmy is open source, which is the part where it definitely becomes a false equivalence.
Because just because the developers may be communists, that has zero bearing on the content of lemmy.world.
The developers do not own lemmy.
Musk is a fascist who owns twitter, and has used it to push his fascist agenda. - Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 2 months ago:
I see you are unable to actually argue your point, and instead choose to continue with the ad hominem.
I’m still interested to hear what bubble it is you consider me to be in? - Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 2 months ago:
But you have to understand there are people out there from all around the world
That doesn’t change anything, whatever country you are from, using Xitter means you are using and thereby supporting a fascist platform.
You are in your own bubble
OK, and which bubble is that?
Seems to me that you are talking about things you don’t know shit about. - Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 2 months ago:
False equivalence.
- Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 2 months ago:
that have no contact with politics
Ergo they are not against fascism.
You just helped prove the point. - Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 2 months ago:

Ooohh if it’s for MUSIC I guess it’s OK to be a fascist.
But you know the bands go where teir followers are right? Also he is supporting bands that ALSO don’t have a problem with fascism.
It goes both ways. - Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 2 months ago:
So because there aren’t other options that are as good for your personal use, you are OK with using a fascist supporting platform. But somehow you think it’s unfair to say you are sort of OK with fascism, since you are using a clearly fascist supporting platform.
- Comment on Special Report: Inside Intel, CEO Pat Gelsinger fumbled the revival of an American icon [Reuters] 2 months ago:
In gaming, maybe.
No Intel had a per core performance advantage overall with Skylake, when Ryzen came out.
Comparing 8 core to 8 core, the 1700X/1800X were faster
True. But that was because Intel had failed to upgrade their Workstation CPU’s from Broadwell to Skylake.
