Glad I could correct some misinformation. :)

Just remember, the market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent. Unless you happen to be a billionaire.

That’s a myth. The Crassus story is true though. In modern times it wouldn’t have made sense to ignore a fire in a city since fires spread.
- Comment on Are there any games you don't play as it was intended to be played? If so, what game and how? 5 days ago:
I wish i could forget KCD2 just so i could play it again fresh. I have 1000 hours in it and i still play it all the time. Such a great game.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is just a horse riding simulator in between games of Farkle. A beautiful deadly simulator.

Settings, appearance, other, separate votes.
- Comment on Climate goals go up in smoke as US datacenters turn to coal 5 days ago:
You can separate the vote totals in the settings i believe. Piefed does it automatically. You can also use lemvotes.org to see how each person voted for the comment or post.

Only on lemmy would someone think 22 total votes of which only 3/4 are downvotes would be considered a “rain of downvotes” imagine if you were in a room with 22 people and 4 agree with you but 18 didn’t. That wouldn’t be considered a flood of downvotes. That’d just be a minority position.

Insurance companies, yes. But we should replace them with some sort of social safety net so people quit being fucked over by random chance. Risk management spread out over a large population is a good thing.

Cohen added: “When I was brought up learning about the Holocaust and we said ‘never again’, I learnt that this means ‘never again’ for anyone.”
Yeah, that’s what I learned too but it appears that a lot of people were just talking out of the sides of their mouths in order to earn brownie points.

- Comment on Everybody is fine with celebrities like Whoopi Goldberg making up fake names for themselves, but when someone chooses a name for themselves to suit their gender identity it's suddenly a problem 1 week ago:
Everyone always forgets the brother who kept his name, Emilio Estevez.

I love when newbie accounts think lemmy is reddit. Makes them easier to ignore.

A ROC between two hard places.
- Comment on Imgur blocks access to UK users after proposed regulatory fine 2 weeks ago:
How would they enforce that fine even if they decided to give one? Unless imgur banks in the UK i think they’d just tell the UK to pound sand.

- Comment on YSK that only by being yourself will you find people who like the real you. No one can beat you at being you, but you’ll only ever be second best at pretending to be someone else. 2 weeks ago:
Yes and no.
You should try and be your authentic self but if you don’t like something about your personality you can pretend to be a version of yourself without that trait and eventually you’ll just be that new person. Fake it ‘til you make it. It’s how I became I decent public speaker. I just pretended to be other good speakers I knew and eventually it was second nature to speak normally without the nervousness in front of a crowd.
- Comment on Should Neutron Stars be Added to the Periodic Table? 2 weeks ago:
This is problematic, because 7.82 × 1052 meters is about 1037 lightyears, and the universe is currently estimated to span a mere 93 billion lightyears.
Comedy gold. I could see Mitch Hedberg saying this.
- Comment on Winning is easy, trying is hard. 2 weeks ago:
Being at the top of a ramp waiting to drop in is uncomfortable even for adults if you haven’t been exposed to it. Props to your kid for conquering that fear.
Also any adults who want that feeling again should take up downhill mountain biking. The adrenaline rush when you finally conquer a large drop or jump on your bike is the same no matter your age.

- Comment on Apple steps up war of words with European regulators 3 weeks ago:
It’s not about what apple wants. It’s about consumers having the freedom to do whatever the fuck they want with their device. If i buy a chair and want to add a 5th leg Ikea has no say in the matter so why should apple have a say in my app choices?
