  • "I have a good life[...] The world is so terrible" screams "I engage with social media toxic to my mental health" to me but my context of your existence is 3 sentences so...

    Take that as advice or criticism but the world has never been perfect and certainly will never be as close to perfect as the funnel of negativity online echo chambers and recommendation algos can be

  • "Child"

  • TIL what it means to "rice" a desktop

  • Is that all?

    turns off switch

  • Siberia, Russia or Svalbard, Norway

    You were planning on going to rural Alaska, right?

  • 已删除

    Permanently Deleted

  • I don't see that much hate but plenty of anger

    Won't speculate as to why but will recommend the community push for keyword filtering at the account level (a la Bluesky) rather than relying on apps like Sync to help us sift through the garbage

  • Correctly, smugly and pretentiously

  • True but I wanted a literal shower thought

  • You're holding the chart upside down

    VTI is down over 5% YTD at time of writing

  • "just as good"? No, I feel it is (and has been for years) vastly superior but I mostly use it to find documentation or Stack Overflow answers so consistent UI and concise summaries are high priority to me. Take that as you will

    I don't think anybody can dethrone Google Maps yet but that's another story

  • "preventable disease" and "Americans" are very broad terms

  • And now I suppose I have to read that in a sarcastic voice because of the "/s"? /d

    (/d = dead serious)

  • Yep. Low bar to clear

  • It's buried... And I don't want to dig past a certain somebody to get it...

  • This would honestly be a lot easier

  • The challenge isn't finding counter examples, it's limiting the narrative of history to have a simple "good/bad divide" but here are some selections of underdogs one may consider the greater of two evils:

    • The confederacy (US Civil War)
    • Caesar's army crossing the Rubicon
    • Imperial Japan post Pearl Harbor
    • Pakistan's complicated history with India
    • King Leonidas and his men (Persia was arguably more equitable)
    • Austria-Hungary (WW1)
    • Fascist Italy (WW2)

    As for David and Goliath, keep in mind David was using a sling, a weapon that can hit with the same force as a modern revolver when used properly. It's entirely possible that story is an allegory and/or propaganda of the value of properly equipping one's armies; it probably shouldn't be viewed as anymore impressive than a rampage killer fatally wounding somebody twice their size

  • The Switch was an iterative improvement on the Wii U and while I wish they called it Nintendo Snap (how I heard the new sound effect) instead of drab numbering, I'd argue there are similar iterative innovations here--some likely to compete with the Steam Deck--without losing what's working so far
