Ah, that makes sense to me. Would you mind giving an example? As i have no expertise at all in the things she is talking about it is a bit difficult to judge the content through this lens.

Okay, i looked into those and i know the type. If i wanted to name a person that embodies this i’d go to people like Graham Hancock.
How dies it apply to Hosenfelder?

I sometimes see videos of Hossenfelder on my feed and have watched a couple. Would you mind adding some context? What are “anti-science grifters”? Sry if i’m a bit out of the loop here.

As much as i regret linking to reddit here, i feel it is fair to also post the channels answer to the video.

I have very much NOT called you right wing. I pointed out, correctly, that calling science a “dogma” is a right wing talking point. I have asked you to elaborate your point, so one is able to determine if you use it in the same context (as a blanket statement to make your own position stronger) or not.
It is deeply ironic that you are ranting about how scientists don’t want to be questioned and “bulk” when told so, yet you have not elaborated a single one of your points yet (you are more than welcome to still do so) and have reacted to me asking you to do so in what i very much read as an aggressive tone.
- Comment on Cause and Effect 2 weeks ago:
I assume that i disagree, but i think it mainly is because “the dogma of science” is a phrase that i immediately recognize as a right wing talking point.
But since you kind of only put that out there and i don’t expect right wing idiots on Lemmy i’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and ask you to kindly elaborate a bit.
What is the dogma of science? Who holds it? What sciences? All of them? Just STEM? And speaking of, who is obsessed with STEM? How and where does that obsession express itself?

Think of it in scale. It’s not just you. It’s millions of people. Even if every household only used one bottle over one year that still would be tons of tons of (easily to avoid) waste. And of course it’s a lot more than one bottle a year.
- Comment on Shh 4 weeks ago:
I use bar shampoo and body wash. Daily, because i sweat a lot (genetics too).
I use bar stuff because i have to shower daily. It prevents so much waste, because i work through soap fast, so at least i am not producing plastic waste.
If you have to wash your hair a lot, thats an argument for bar shampoo, not against.

I am happy to read at least one sane voice amongst the sea of people who don’t understand that we are doing exactly what they are accusing us of doing by celebrating his death. I honestly am taken aback by the amount of people who think this is good.

There is a difference between not tolerating intolerance and actively calling for the killing of / celebrating the death of an intolerant person.
- Comment on No Man's Sky: Voyagers update releases today, introduces customizable "colossal, fully furnished, completely bespoke Corvette-class starships" 1 month ago:
Yeah, i feel same-ish.
I used a save game modifier to unlock the cool stuff hidden behind the grind. Since then I spent some time building a base in a nice looking planet and flying around looking for a cool world.
Thing is, you are right: it gets old fast. Planets are boring. There are some cool combinations here and there, but 90% of them are just the same old same old. Seen them once, seen them all.
From time to time i still hop in, but it doesn’t grab me more than a couple of hours every six months or so.

Ai, loverslab comes to mind. Used that to kink the hell out of Sims back in the day.

- Comment on Instagram Caught Hiding Posts That Say "Immigrants Make the Country Great" 1 month ago:
Correct.
In addition, illegal immigrants that spend their dollars on the local economy, pay taxes without taking from the social security pots and do low wage jobs locals don’t want to do also make a country great.

I installed Steam during a Lan party back in 2007 (i think to play Left 4 Dead) and remember thinking “Damn, not another bloody useless account”. Little did i know :)
- Comment on A 2003 complaint about Half Life 2 2 months ago:
Yeah, fully expecting that to happen. I wish that guy a long and healthy life and there isn’t an ounce of altruism in that statement.
Any containment plans for when Steam joins the club of shit eventually?

Could it be AI getting better at solving them, so they need to be more complex? No idea how this works, so just a thought.
- Comment on Payment Processors Are Pressuring Major Gaming Vendors to Pull LGBTQ+ and NSFW Titles 2 months ago:
The Article dosn’t bring up anything the Austraians have done SO FAR to remove LGBTQI+ content from steam. Is there a creditable source for that?
- Comment on Lemmy is a tech literate echo chamber 2 months ago:
This is where i sit. I know shit on my own, but i know how to look it up. I managed to do the transfer from Windows Linux Mint and have been able to navigate the bumps in the process via Google and trying to get a halfway decent idea about some very basic concepts. Now i am moving on and am trying to get rid of all Tech Companies that bend their knee to fascism. And that works as well, without being a tech savvy person.

Thanks for the context. Might have been caught up in the crossfire, but very worrying indeed.

Shit. Would you provide a source please?
- Comment on I'm doing my part 2 months ago:
That’s a sane take on a matter that is easy to act on blind rage. I agree.
We’ve had some success here with a program called “Don’t become a perpetrator”. Pedosexuals (which is the scientific term for people attracted to minors without acting upon their urges) could enter, as long as they hadn’t committed any crime in regards to children or consuming illegal content. They could get psychological help as well as a chemical castration. Preventive approaches like this should be more common.

Love the PS2 ones. They almost have a Goth vibe in their aesthetics.
