  • I did not attack a wide, diverse range of people. I attacked a small subset that exists almost exclusively on Reddit.

    Would it be worth me saying that I find some atheists annoying, but that I find far, far more theists annoying? I find some people in every group annoying. That doesn't mean I find everyone in those groups annoying. It also doesn't mean that I'm not an ally for those groups. I will fight to the death for gay rights but if a gay person is being annoying they're still being annoying.

    It's fine, you don't think atheists can be annoying. Or you think admitting that they can is counterproductive? That's also fine. Obviously I disagree, but I just don't understand your hostility.

    I'm having a great day so far, thanks!

  • You are being very aggressive lol. I'm not being a pickme, I couldn't give less fucks what religious people think of me. I actively dislike religious people, and agree with you that religion is the root of a good amount of the evil in the world.

    All I said was that annoying atheists do exist (I know, I was one of them).

    If you won't allow allies to lightly push back on your ideas then you'll find yourself without many allies.

    Have a great day anyway man.

  • I don't know how you read my first comment and thought I was ignoring the damage theists do. I very explicitly stated that there are more cringe theists than atheists.

  • You think I'm lying about being an atheist? Pretty sure that would be against some rule in the bible lmao.

  • I mean, I'm an atheist myself but the type of person they're memeing here definitely does exist. Pretty much only confined to Reddit though. In my experience there are far more cringe theists in most other online spaces.

  • Obviously uhhhh uhhhhhhh put your ID in a GitHub secret and uhhhhhh social security number and uhhhhhh

  • it's always "a billionaire did a thing", not "a billionaire paid some people to do a thing".

    Funny how that works.

  • Hahahahaha no. damage the robotaxis? straight to jail.

  • What if you can't do the hand gestures because you have a disability of some kind?

  • 2 drinks a day is a lot of alcohol imo. I'd love a study that looks at more normal amounts of alcohol (imo being less than 0.5 drinks a day on average)

  • Plato's allegory of the cave, basically some prisoners chained down in a cave who can only see a cave wall. They mistake the shadows on the cave wall for reality. OP is drawing the obvious comparison.

  • Hey I work in cyber security. Just because an app has a backdoor doesn't mean that the backdoor can be accessed by anyone. Accessing this backdoor would likely mean compromising meta themselves, not just the app or its communications.

  • Thanks! I feel obliged to say I built my PC in 2023, but Linux still feels exciting to me. Trying to avoid becoming that annoying Linux guy who tells everyone to install it lol.

  • I came from macOS and found GNOME pretty accommodating. It's more akin to macOS than to Windows, both looks and customisation-wise. I'm also a software engineer! :)

  • If they can achieve similar results without the subscription I think they might consider moving over. That being said I've seen what companies pay to use Microsoft shit lmao.

  • That's a fair criticism. I imagine as it matures more this might become less of an issue (yes it's been around for ages but desktop Linux is only recently gaining some traction, so I give them some slack there), but currently it's absolutely GNOME's biggest downfall.

    It's also partially why I don't recommend it for Windows refugees, if you have any expectations of how it should function there's a good chance it just won't work that way, and the extensions that make it work how you want it to are unreliable.

    I personally have a cursed setup with GNOME and hyprland installed. I retreat to GNOME whenever my hyprland setup is borked, which is most of the time.

  • GNOME is fine I will die on this hill. It's not for Windows refugees, though.

  • misinformation is more likely to spread without correction

    This hasn't been my experience on Lemmy at all. Misinformation here is usually called out in the first comment, which is counter to what I've seen on Reddit, Facebook, twitter, etc. where people are more interested in making funny quips than actually engaging with the topic.

  • Linux is not that hard. These days it's easier than Windows in some ways.
