Why is this not a conflict of interest?
- Comment on What if there is an equal alien civilization also incapable of light speed travel but developed a telescope that could view planets like ours. 2 days ago:
Sorry to be the “um, actually” guy, but life on any planet other than Earth has not been confirmed. There have been some signs that there MAY be life elsewhere, but nothing conclusive.
As a layperson, there seems to be a general consensus that, given the vast nature of the universe, life on other planets may be likely. We just can’t say “for a fact that other planets exist with life”.
I’ll be happy to be proven wrong if you’ve got a source.
- Comment on Why do people insist on not answering ALL the questions in an email or text message? 3 days ago:
People hate to read. I write emails that try to cover all bases, because I can’t assume grown adults with advanced degrees know what’s going on. Sadly, they’ll not only not read it, but ask me to write less. Cutting the word count only leads to more confusion.
I’m so done with humanity sometimes.

God Almighty, these people are mentally ill. Having sex with women is to gay. We’re going to wrap around to a misogynistic homosexual society, apparently.
What the actual fuck?
- Comment on Bad UX is keeping the majority of people away from Lemmy 1 month ago:
I use Boost for Lemmy. The transition from Reddit was easy for me, and I know little about the fediverse other than the most basic outlines.

Good.

Some people choose to have guns. They’re not cheap, and not everyone over here is willing to kill someone else.

If we start burning cars, we likely start getting shot. Remember this is the USA we’re talking about here. Maybe it needs to come to that, but don’t judge people for trying to avoid the kind of crackdown Trump would likely enact given any excuse.
