  Forgive my ignorance, but which event of the 17th century would you classify as a burgeois revolution? Late 18th century of course, even many during the 19th century, but i just can’t remember any such event from the 1600s

  Just a quick fyi, you are functionally a sollipsist. Please tell people that in the beginning, so they know not to waste their time

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨CFCs⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks, i am putting effort into that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨CFCs⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Right… so your issue isn’t with the facts as they are stated. You too are not disputing those facts, am i right?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨CFCs⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What is it that you are disputimg? The fact that CFC leads to Ozone depletion? Or the fact that it is possible for the person in the tweet to know that?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Cult of AI. How one writer's trip to an annual tech conference left him with a sinking feeling about the future⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  25% is an abnormally large number considering the current techonological inability to the same thing as a human could. In my experience current “AI” is mostly useful for very specific tasks with very narrow guidelines.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Eath's water is non-carbonated⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  But the earth isn’t 71% water. Only its surface. So you can say the world’s surface is flat, which makes the joke not work as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If so-called AI is basically just Large Language Models, how come predictive text on my phone is bollock-useless?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My favourite: ‘geröntgt’ which is the second participle of ‘röntgen’ to x-ray someone. Never heard it pronounced correctly by a native speaker.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨lemmy.ml⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a bit more complicated than that. Palestine doesn’t have a strong democratic tradition to begin with. Additionally, Hamas is only governing Gaza, not the West Banks. Hamas also suppresses secular Freedom organizations. And ~50% of the people in Gaza wouldnt even be able to vote out Hamas since they are under 18. Then we have the case of Hamas indoctrination, which finds fertile soil in the impoverished and destitute Gaza youth.

  All of that isn’t to say I support Hamas. I am quite vocal in my disdain for them. But Israel plays a significant part in their success. So does Iran. And let’s not forget that the religious right has been torpedoing a resolution aswell, not just the Jihadist organization Hamas. Rabin wasn’t killed by a palestinian hardliner.

  The attacks weren’t perpetrated by a free Palestinian people or some recognized advocacy group, but by an extremist wing of the Muslim Brotherhood that has been pushed by Israel for decades.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Finding a Tech Job Is Still a Nightmare⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It might mot be hard, but it’s still a nightmare

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the Israel thing going on?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s another explanation: there is a religiously zealous segment of israeli society that is the main driver of many illegal settlements. Additionally the state of Israel sometimes wields its institutional force against palestinians, especially in east Jerusalem. Citing ‘demographic concerns’ as a reason for giving building permits to israelis and not to palestinians should probably not happen in a non ethno state.

  It really wouldnt tho. There is a huge segmebt of C-Suite guys who are unashamedly going for that bag, no matter what happens to the company or its products once they are gone. This guy is one of the more prolific assholes of that sort.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft to stop forcing Windows 11 users into Edge in EU countries⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a movie reference. Specifically it references “The Lord of the Rings: The return of the King” at the end of the battle of Minas Tirith. It is said by Gimli, as a response to Legolas slaying a Mumak (giant war elephant).

  I’m sorry i don’t have a timestamp.
