- Comment on At what point do you consider a person an alcoholic? 14 hours ago:
There are people who won’t socialize at all unless it involves alcohol
- Comment on How does one fight the atomization of society, as Marx foretold years ago? 14 hours ago:
You don’t.
Just live your life.
- Comment on Why do I push people away if I'm so lonely? 14 hours ago:
because you’re not lonely. you’re just a jerk.
- Comment on Why would anyone do this? 15 hours ago:
if by brutal you mean fun and not full of corporate bullshit, yeah.
- Comment on Why would anyone do this? 15 hours ago:
And to compare themselves against their friends.
Every girl in my high school was all over this when it came out. They all wanted to know who was prettier.
- Comment on Why would anyone do this? 15 hours ago:
The 2000s were a wild time.
- Comment on Am I immature if I feel sad that a subculture that treated me so warmly died out years ago? 15 hours ago:
No, it’s normal.
What is immature is to dwell on it and prevent you from moving on with your life.
- Comment on The tendency to feel like a perpetual victim is strongly tied to vulnerable narcissism 15 hours ago:
Yes, and we now live in a victimhood culture where victimhood is a symbol of social power and people compete for victimhood status as a way to exploit others financially or otherwise.
- Comment on Big AI has PC users furious. Nvidia and Micron's weird emotional appeals make it worse 6 days ago:
at that pricepoint it’s just about showing off how much money you have.
- Comment on Big AI has PC users furious. Nvidia and Micron's weird emotional appeals make it worse 1 week ago:
motherboard prices haven’t inflated too much yet. gaming/consumer motherboards aren’t in demand from the AI industry. the want server hardware
- Comment on Big AI has PC users furious. Nvidia and Micron's weird emotional appeals make it worse 1 week ago:
most folks will pay. all my PC gamer friends are just paying $200 per 16GB stick now.
- Comment on Big AI has PC users furious. Nvidia and Micron's weird emotional appeals make it worse 1 week ago:
they have to give up their bragging rights if they don’t upgrade their PCs
- Comment on Bluesky just verified ICE 1 week ago:
i mean, this is how it works in practice.
it’s just that the company is on whomevers side that’s in power. they donate to both campaigns usually.
- Comment on Bluesky just verified ICE 1 week ago:
it’s called guilt by assocation. it’s shitty and lame type of logical fallacy
if you live on the same street as a nazi, you must be a nazi. because apparently you have to sell your home and move away if a nazi moves in.
of course, if you do this and it’s a non-white person you are racist… and a bad person, but if you do it for a nazi you’re a good person.
it’s not as if the logic of the thing is what at’s fault.
- Comment on New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE 1 week ago:
it doesn’t matter what you want, society dictates the rules.
unless you go off the grid or something.
- Comment on New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE 1 week ago:
nobody doesn’t care about money. anyone who says they don’t is a liar and are usually the people who are the most easily bought.
- Comment on Bluesky just verified ICE 1 week ago:
yeah but you have at least half a brain.
most internet users barely have 1/10 of one. and demand other users be banned for not sharing their opinions, but would be outraged if they were banned for their objectionable opinions.
- Comment on Do we need more users ? 1 week ago:
Edit: And you know what? I’m just going to fucking say it. There’s too many armchair activists here who won’t let you enjoy a single moment without reminding you that something bad is happening somewhere in the world and that you have some kind of moral obligation to be angry all the time about it. And if you’re not angry all the time then you’re somehow part of the problem.
Amen.
I am so sick of being lectured by some weirdo about ‘WHY AREN’T YOU DOING ANYTHING’. It’s nothing more than them projecting their pathetic helpless miserable life onto others. ‘if you dont’ support my this issue than you are a morally bankrupt person!’
- Comment on Do we need more users ? 1 week ago:
a lot of people who came here are the insufferable types from reddit who think it’s their ‘duty’ to harass and shit on anyone who dares hold a different view of the world than they do.
- Comment on Do we need more users ? 1 week ago:
i am not using piefed. maybe it’s better for admins, but I’m not an admin.
- Comment on Do we need more users ? 1 week ago:
that isn’t true. anytime i have gone there it’s WAY more memey. it looks more like mastrodon/twitter than reddit.
I am not interesting in meme platforms.
- Comment on Do we need more users ? 1 week ago:
piefed is full of memes. i hate it.
- Comment on Do we need more users ? 1 week ago:
you’re on a different instance
- Comment on Do we need more users ? 1 week ago:
yes, i can.
but it’s problematic if I have to do that every day. It’s almost a daily part of my use of lemmy.
- Comment on New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE 1 week ago:
they call any new deal type thinking ‘populism’ and lump it in with Trump.
- Comment on New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE 1 week ago:
most people don’t care about sides. they just care about money.
- Comment on New PieFed instance: MULTIVERSE 1 week ago:
all of these anarchist flavors are a form of relativism where all that matters is people’s individual feelings.
it’s a form of solipsism
- Comment on Do we need more users ? 1 week ago:
lemmy is basically NSFW because of this, yes.
- Comment on Do we need more users ? 1 week ago:
the fediverse is very low quality unless you’re a furry linux anarchist/communist
