  • You’re right, I didn’t refute. Wrong word used there. i was asking for receipt, because saying .world is not a receipt. If I accused you of doing the same thing the guy accused these people of, would you accept if the only receipt I used is the fact that you’re a .world account?

    I never said they didn’t do the thing they’re being accused of, I just have a better standard of proof than what server they started their Lemmy account in. Turns out you didn’t, so I am quite disappointed in you.

    As was predicted. “One day, when it’s safe, when there’s no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it’s too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this.” - Omar El Akkad

    But it’s not too late. The people who are responsible in your assertion are still alive and still doubling down on the genocide, so by what metric are you measuring the people here who are already acting against genocide before your prediction has come true? It doesn’t seem like you thought your logic through.




  • No. He went to significant lengths to circumvent the “non-techy” interface

    Well, you’ve just proven that you didn’t watch the video. How about you watch the thing you want to criticise, that’s an idea.

    He literally started with the Pop Shop and it errored out when installing Steam. The only reason he ended up in the command line is because Linux users readily offered that as a solution to any problem, despite all repeated claims that the average person never need to use one.

    Basically, you’re mad that he used the command line despite the fact that he already tried not using it and the Linux community are the ones telling people to use it as a solution.

    At the same time, you’re mad that the person you wanted to not use the command line because it’s too complicated for their skill level did not read a wall of text that they wouldn’t have understood anyway because of that limited skill level.

    Basically, you’re acting like a Linux elitist despite the fact that you didn’t even bother getting the correct fact before implying someone is stupid. It’s irony all the way down and you don’t even have the self-awareness to realise you’re acting even worse than Linus when it comes to damaging Linux’s reputation amongst casual users.
