- Comment on Do you think conservative feel the same need to burn it all down as everyone else felt when trump won again? 1 day ago:
I was moreso asking about the values that used to (but no longer) exist in the republican party as the main change I see is the willingness to let the mask slip.
Though I am still confused why you consider yourself a conservative when you support all those progressive ideas! I am not a conservative but we seem to agree on a whole lot
- Comment on Do you think conservative feel the same need to burn it all down as everyone else felt when trump won again? 1 day ago:
I hadn’t considered the Electoral College thing so I’ll give you that…but the rest of the list, aside from the supreme court thing which is non-partisan, are things conservatives (famously) fought against.
Are you sure you’re conservative? If you really hold those ideals, I think you might actually be progressive…
- Comment on Do you think conservative feel the same need to burn it all down as everyone else felt when trump won again? 1 day ago:
The only thing to do is push back, and try to save what can be saved.
Not trying to bait here but what do you want to save and how far back are you going to find something worth saving? Some aspects of fiscal conservatism have their merits but I’m stumped thinking of any good socially-conservative opinions from the past hundred years
- Comment on thick skinned employees, how can you be so thick skinned? 1 week ago:
I’ve had several jobs since then and met a few lifelong friends but the point is none of that matters when you’re on the clock. Don’t get involved in the drama and don’t date your coworkers (unless you work in hospitality, I guess)
- Comment on thick skinned employees, how can you be so thick skinned? 1 week ago:
After the resulting shit from being friends with my coworkers at my first “real” job, I avoid work socialization as much as possible. I’ve been with my currently company for 3 years and have only given my number to 3 people…two of which just wanted pictures of my dog since I stopped using Instagram.
Nobody knows me that well and I like it that way. Nobody asks me to fix their computer, nobody shares the latest gossip. If they try, I say “oh wow” and then look back at my screen
- Comment on What is the first electronic device kids get these days? (Desktop, Laptop, Tablet, Phone, Game consoles?) 1 week ago:
My nephew got one of those smart watches for kids. There’s no real games, the camera sucks, and he can only contact and be contacted by approved numbers but it’s nice to have.
I like getting his goofy texts, too
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong is out now on Steam - and it broke Steam servers for 15 minutes and counting now 1 week ago:
Sounds like the genre’s just not for you. I also don’t enjoy games like this BUT it’s not wasting time if you’re having fun
- Comment on @jack_toohey on why the housing crisis is not caused by migration 1 week ago:
What generally happens to prices when there’s a high demand and a low supply
- Comment on @jack_toohey on why the housing crisis is not caused by migration 1 week ago:
What do you think “property” is in this context?
They are buying homes and not renting them out. Holding them as an investment and/or making money off them on Airbnb.
- Comment on Australia | Man arrested after allegedly ramming car through front gates of Russian consulate in Sydney 2 weeks ago:
He was on a special 3-minute vehicular operation so they should have just given him the consulate
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Will Release for Only $20, Release Times Revealed 2 weeks ago:
I don’t really like games like this (I know Hollow Knight is a masterpiece if you do) but I’d be tempted to buy it for $20 just to support the studio
- Comment on Taylor Swift’s new album comes in cassette. Who is buying those? 4 weeks ago:
One of the biggest artist in the world using cassettes feels like cultural appropriation lol
- Comment on Get to know the robot dog that can clean your house and serve you soda 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, not connecting the AI Robo Dog 2026 to the Internet will surely work. Corporations like this love to give users control like that, right? You probably don’t even have to sign up for an account
- Comment on Why the skibidi are you adding skibidi to the Cambridge Dictionary? We think it has "staying power", answer word boffins 4 weeks ago:
They did it so articles like this would be written about them. Easy advertising
Like the time “bootylicious” was added. A word everyone stopped using a year later
- Comment on Forget Netflix, Volkswagen locks horsepower behind paid subscription 4 weeks ago:
At least that has SOME justification since there’s a cellular connection and servers involved
- Comment on If I invented a shirt that caused cameras to be damaged when filmed/photographed, would I be committing a crime by wearing the shirt at events with cameras? 4 weeks ago:
I rolled my eyes at your optimism that such a material would exist but I took it all back by the end. Despite it being incredibly niche and unrealistic, that is by far the most clever suggestion in the thread!
- Comment on Samsung Defeats BOE In Landmark OLED Trade Secrets Case, Securing 15-Year U.S. Market Ban And Reinforcing Its Leadership In Display Technology 4 weeks ago:
This ruling will surely lead to major advancements in their technology such as…changing the VESA location on every model of their commercial displays.
- Comment on If suffering is good because it gives life meaning, wouldn't it follow that hurting people is good? 5 weeks ago:
Your premise is wrong but you should watch Bojack Horseman and pay attention to Diane’s arc, specifically the episode Good Damage
- Comment on Tucson City Council votes 7-0, unanimously to kill AI Data Center 5 weeks ago:
I assumed they meant “stop giving Amazon money” because “stop using the internet entirely” is a such a ridiculous suggestion
- Comment on Tucson City Council votes 7-0, unanimously to kill AI Data Center 5 weeks ago:
I don’t use AWS! Are all the data centers gone yet?

If it was a pavlovian response, it would have been in my first reply.
I’d ask for a Wikipedia article about Pavlov but I worry you’d send an unrelated link

- Comment on Can an American explain to me what's with the grooves on PS1 NTSC cases? 5 weeks ago:
Wow, it’s not like I was doing the shopping myself in 1995 but I’m still surprised I’ve never seen one of these!
- Comment on NSFW on Lemmy 5 weeks ago:
Technically I DO have an account on a different instance I was considering switching to but I logged out immediately after seeing they federated with hexbear lol
- Comment on Can an American explain to me what's with the grooves on PS1 NTSC cases? 5 weeks ago:
In a fraction of the time it took you to make this, you could have confirmed yourself that these are all the same size
- Comment on Can an American explain to me what's with the grooves on PS1 NTSC cases? 5 weeks ago:
Really?? I got a PS1 when they were pretty new and all of my games are in standard jewel cases.

Thanks!
This looks to be a page about the accusations and the counterarguments to said accusations, not a page claiming to the truth

Not bad. Does it use all the VRAM?

Why have two people replied to my request for a link with something other than a link
