- Comment on Pee pee is never poo time. But poo time is always poo time. 1 day ago:
This is FALSE.
I remember I was once very sick, and I pooped. No pee.
I remember distinctly going ‘oh shit does that mean I’m dead?’
- Comment on I have an acquaintance that have their own "password system" that involves having a "core" set of characters, plus a few unique characters for each site; Is that system safe? 1 day ago:
If it is sufficiently long, and the pattern is in any way dynamic then yes.
If they’re doing something like lemmy-core-420 then no.
A drummer friend used to do a few bars of a different rudiment. Like djddjdjjdjddjdjjdjddjdjjdjddjdjj and then account for PW rules

Do you have a moment to talk about our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ?

The whole anti Google holier than thou is annoying at these levels.
Ok fine, don’t use Google. But telling your friends and loved ones to switch email providers over your crusade is worse than vegans telling you about their diet.
I’m all for kicking Google to the curb. I’m not for shoving my beliefs down other people’s throats.

Yeah, I use it as a sort of block filter staging area.
A reminder of why I should block them if they match their label later.
Or, to keep things not negative all the time, I have a ton of users tagged simply “yes” if they were funny, provided good help, or were generally pleasant to interact with :)

Man, I don’t know. I wanna know too.
I got a refurb drive in 2019 that has been clicking and rumbling a little to moderately for 6 years now. Great value at this point, but it’s replacement is gathering dust at this point.

Really, this argument ignores the greater mystery.
What the fuck is humans obsession with right angles?
- They don’t represent our actual visual field
- They aren’t space efficient.
- They aren’t strong.

Oooh, edgy. Few problems:
List of logical fallacies
- Hasty Generalization
“Everybody privately shit-talks everybody.” Assumes a universal truth based on limited or anecdotal experience. Not everyone engages in this behavior
- False Premise
“The phone always listens to it and records it.” This is factually untrue for most users and makes the argument invalid from the start. The conclusion based on this premise (a hack turning that into texts) relies on a false understanding of technology.
- Slippery Slope (Implied)
“A viral hack that turns all this shit-talking into texts.”
Implied assumption: this will definitely go viral and cause massive disruption. It assumes a cascade of dramatic consequences without evidence.
- Appeal to Cynicism
“Everybody privately shit-talks everybody.” Uses an exaggeratedly negative view of human nature as a foundation to justify or normalize antisocial behavior.
- Moral Equivalence
By implying that since everyone does it, exposing it via a viral hack is just revealing the “truth” and therefore not really unethical, it downplays the maliciousness of the hypothetical hack.

Having 0 documentation doesn’t mean you have no DLP strategy. That’s amateur hour.

Top Google result.
- Comment on Why do so many piece of Hardware come with windows only software requiring admin right for installation 1 week ago:
Maybe google it before pretending you know what it does based on the name?
- Comment on Why do so many piece of Hardware come with windows only software requiring admin right for installation 1 week ago:
Autoelevate does handle this appropriately.
It automatically sends the prompt to an admin for review.
It doesn’t automatically allow anything.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
You either: Lied about having kids
Or
Are a bad parent.
I don’t care which it is, Im just letting you know that you’ve made this much clearer than you realize.
- Comment on Why do so many piece of Hardware come with windows only software requiring admin right for installation 1 week ago:
Gross. Tell your IT director about solutions to this problem, like autoelevate. I mean there’s a security tradeoff but, you can have windows prompts for admins automatically prompt an IT admin to review and enter their credentials or deny and request more info. And it’s a very easy deployment for any intermediate IT person.

You’ve got two huh.
Hey everyone check out this parenting expert over here! They’ve raised two kids 😲
That’s basically 100% of human behavior, so yeah. Wow. Leashes? Can’t fathom a situation that would warrant it. You’re right. Everyone who has ever used a leash is correcting for a problem you’re very experienced in. After all, you have two kids.
- Comment on How do you document your Homelab? 2 weeks ago:
I operate on the philosophy that it is better for me to relearn things that lean on old documentation that may no longer be accurate/relevant.
The best way to implement a safe connection to my home lab today might not be the safest way tomorrow.
Old dog, new tricks, etc.
Also! Your documentation is an attackers wet dream.
- Comment on Partner has ADD, do I have misophonia? 2 weeks ago:
Videogames and YouTube reaction bid can both go to the same singular pair of Bluetooth headphones.
Your partner is not being fair to you. They don’t need to be listening at full volume, either. That’s obnoxious.
Shit, if I wanna plug my guitar in my huge amp and shred guitar all day, do I just tell my gf to deal with it because I’m depressed and have ADD? No, I use amp simulators and headphones.
- Comment on What techniques do bad faith users use online to overwhelm other users in online discussion and arguments? 2 weeks ago:
Okay I’m free now.
Im so glad you gave me this gem.
Your response itself relies on several fallacies… false equivalence, hasty generalization, equivocation, a strawman, and non sequitur reasoning, probably more?
You’re incorrectly conflating logical fallacies (which are clear mistakes in reasoning) with inductive uncertainty or experimental limitations in science. Logical fallacies invalidate reasoning structures. Scientific reasoning explicitly includes uncertainty and error correction as fundamental principles; it’s not fallacious; it’s cautious and probabilistic.
Additionally, your example of Socrates is actually demonstrating deductive validity, a different kind of reasoning entirely. Thus, your argument misrepresents logic and science simultaneously. Please correct these fallacies if you want this conversation to proceed productively
- Comment on What techniques do bad faith users use online to overwhelm other users in online discussion and arguments? 2 weeks ago:
You’re conflating two separate ideas.
A valid arguent needn’t any logical fallacy.
- Comment on What techniques do bad faith users use online to overwhelm other users in online discussion and arguments? 2 weeks ago:
Why do we not have some brilliant mind just fully memorize all of the ins and outs of how these arise and just crush bad faith arguments by simply labeling them in real time rather than engaging with them?
Like, if framed correctly “I don’t engage in logical fallacy. I will immediately call it out, move on, and go back to the relevant topic.”
“Oh you don’t care about starving children?”
“That’s an appeal to emotion. I won’t engage with this obvious logical fallacy. I will address the causes of children suffering to alleviate their suffering.”
“But the cause is illegal immigrants!!!”
“That’s a strawman. I won’t engage with logical fallacies. If you’d like to have a discussion about solving problems, Im all ears, but until we’re done pointing fingers, this conversation is over.”

- Comment on I’m very good at math and would like health insurance. What is the easiest option? 2 weeks ago:
It’s game theory, so a little math and a little of this and that.
Are you young and healthy? Easy bet.
Are you middle aged and struggling? Difficult bet.
Are you old and in poor health? Easy bet.
Etc.

I’m approaching 40 And it was hard enough with cable internet being all the rage.
Now that kind of connectivity is 24/7 and on personal pocket sized devices.
I don’t envy today’s youth.
- Comment on Is it weird to juggle in the park? 3 weeks ago:
When you’re 20, you care what everyone thinks about you
When you’re 40, you don’t give a shit what anyone thinks about you.
When you’re 60, you’ll realize no one was thinking about you the whole time. It will be more empowering than depressing.
Skip the worry. Do you. It’s public space and hurts no one.
